The Comic
I've got some news for everyone, so I'll just get right to it.
At the end of this chapter, there is no more Sublunary. Call it an indefinate hiatus, cal it quitting, whatever. It's not going to be here as far as those who are involved know. If we chanmge our minds, you'll be the first to find out.
We've gone for a very very long time without missing a single update, actually since the comic began. We've been doing this on top of our life, our school, and our relationship. It's about time that it stopped taking over our lives, since it's not as fun as it used to be, and not more important than some other aspects.
You can complain all you want, I know a few people at least will. Rest assured we want to end this less than ANY of you do. This was something I myself have put a lot of time, effort, work, strength, tears, everything into. Something I've sacrificed a hell of a lot for. It hurts me that it's ending more than any of you. I can't speak for Torso, but I'm pretty positive she feels the same.
So what will we do? No idea.
If after a rest we've decided to get back to it, we will start updates slowly, probably once a week. We might move to twice. I don't know.
If we decide not to, I'll probably write a summery of the rest of the story, at the VERY least. If I have the time/energy/fan attention I might be persuaded to type it out in a novel form. I'm not sure, since right now I'm trying to work on my own novel series. I have't really had time to write or draw anything at all outside of this ^_^;; and my writing isn't very good anymore becuase of it, I think. If we decide not to continue and enough people want it though, I'll make an attempt. Maybe a chapter a month or something. It would let me put a lot more exposition in then a comic...cause you just can't spend 6 months explaining all the details without losing people. Six hundred words? A little easier.
So...yeah. It's been a good run. I honestly hoped to finish this. I don't want to leave it, it might sound emotional and all but after this much time and effort on a project you get really attached but this is probably for the best.
And yes, I'm quite aware this is a horrible cliffhanger to leave you all with. Maybe if we continue it'll make you come back? For the most part you've been wonderful fans. This turned out more popular than I think either of us expected. You're welcome to keep drawing us art and writing us fics, we still adore it. It might even give us a push in a few months if we look back and see you haven't all left.
In conclusion, you've been great. The comic has had its ups and downs, and caused many, but it's something we're proud of. I want to be able to continue it, we both do I think, but I'm not sure it's the best thing right now. Thank you ALL for your support and gifts and time and attention and everything. You can't even begin to understand how it makes us feel to know that there are people everywhere who are willing to enjoy and spend time on something we put out. Thank you, and for now I suppose this is goodbye.

I figure Torso should add something as well.
I, too, apoligize for the fact this comic is ending. I wish I could find the drive to keep everything in my life in order to the point needed to keep the comic going consistantly, but I can't. I have too much piling on me, and it's slowly sucking the life out of me. Once I have everything in order, I hope I'll be able to pick it up again.
If I can't, and Reena does put the comic in a novel form, I'll see if I can make a few illustrations to accompany some of the chapters. Bad news is they'd be less frequent then my actual comic updates, but they will be full color images, which will be much more detailed then most of my comics. I just can't find the time to make them that good.
Hopefully everything will work out, since I hate having to pull Reena and all you into my problems. Goodbye, but I hope it won't be forever.
