May I ask what prompted the revival decision? It feels like a bit of the fandom is going through a resurrection right now, so I'm kinda curious

Alabaster was originally interrupted at the beginning of 2014, following some hard moments in my life. I tried to keep updating but couldn't do it anymore. Other works of mine suffered the same fate.

It was a conjunction of progressively finding again more creative energy in my life and feeling my love for Homestuck reigniting which slowly brought back the revival. Friends of one of the MSPFA splinters (Eagle Time) advised me to listen to the podcast Homestuck Made This World, and doing so, I progressively got back in touch with the passion. I always wanted to finish Alabaster properly, I just lacked the passion.

I re-immersed myself in the fandom, and in parallel, I gauged cautiously my level of motivation for Alabaster. The 100+ panels update in the first months of 2023 was both a demonstration to my dear readers I was serious with the revival and a way to make sure with myself I was invested enough to continue.

I'm happy to be back in the game!
