#yes!!!

They've been a longtime member of this community whose departure marks the end of an era for a lot of us. It's a rarity for someone to finish one ask blog, let alone MULTIPLE, and to have told such meaningful and compelling stories along the way really says a lot about their skill as a writer, artist, and storyteller.

While the only blogs of theirs I followed were Silvan, Savel, and Hoenn Gods, it was really cool hearing about their time with prior blogs, and seeing the callbacks to other stories like Ask Omni. It was inspirational as a writer personally and is what pushed me to really focus in on doing a story-centric blog that I hope to finish one day as well.

I know I'm not the only one who is going to miss seeing Skins around as regularly, but I also hope that their time offline is well spent and they achieve all they could ever hope for and more. They've been through a lot this last year and have more than earned their 'retirement' from askblogging.
