Time passes much more quickly in Rohandor and many long and happy years have gone by since the characters retired to enjoy their respective 'happily ever afters,' their greatest foes were imprisoned in the Forever Stone, bound in an eternal sleep. Until Now.
Happily Ever Afters takes place in Rohandor, a mystical realm on another plane of existence from our own. Here our favorite Disney heroes and villains live in a world all their own; Alive, but far from well. Heroes and heroines fight to keep peace while newly freed villains seek their revenge. Come join us in an epic adventure as the characters you love clash in a struggle that will determine the fate of Rohandor!
HEA is an AU canon-only animated crossover Disney Play-By-Post Role Play with minimal word count.

4/24/21: We've been on hiatus for a number of years now. I don't know that I'm entirely ready to return BUT I have been cleaning up the site and working to update everything since a number of movies have released. There is still A LOT of work to do but if you see this update and were an active member of the site prior to the hiatus, please send the Yen Sid account a DM to let me know you're still interested in playing and if you wish to retain your current roster. I hope you've all been doing well and staying safe!

You've probably noticed I haven't been around. The excuse this time is that I'm visiting my family this week, then when the visit is over my work schedule is going to be crazy for a week or two while things settle. But then I've got a convention coming up at the end of the month and then next month I'm going to be visiting the family again so really things are going to be crazy until July.
In light of this and some recent health issues, I've been doing a lot of thinking regarding my priorities and what I want to be doing with my life and I've come to the conclusion that for one thing, I need a personal hiatus from RPs.
I am blessed to have such an amazing community of writers here. I love writing and plotting with all you wonderful and amazing people but I just don't have the drive to write for any of these characters right now. Even writing for the characters I LOVE has been difficult and I doubt even dropping my roster down would help. My lack of muse has been causing me nothing but stress and anxiety. I always feel like I'm letting you down both with site content and my own posting habits. I feel like I'm stuck in this cycle of wanting to post, promising to do so, not doing it, apologizing and writhing in guilt, then wash, rinse, and repeat. I'm barely scraping by activity checks that I'm only posting in because I HAVE to and that's not right.
I've mentioned before that I have struggled with anxiety on occasion but over the last few months in particular I've been having some issues with my blood pressure being high and have been put on meds for it. Things are better in that sense but it's forced some things into perspective. I want to write novels and while I am worrying about my RPs I am splitting my focus and ultimately not working on anything which does no one any good. I've also started streaming video games on Twitch which has been a lot of fun and something I want to try and keep working to get better at. I'm looking at my writing and streaming as 2nd and 3rd jobs to try and suppliment my full time job. In that sense they have to become more of a priority to me.
Please know that HEA is not closing and the site is not going on a hiatus, just me. I've talked with Joy/Maskerader and Te Fiti/Grim and they both agreed that they would attempt to handle things in my absence. That said, they have lives too and ultimately the responsiblity for this game falls to me so if things get slow- well, slower- please be patient. I will attempt to check in every now and again but I also need the separation to really feel like I am getting a break.
I honestly can't say how long I'll be away. This year will be crazy busy for me between all the family visits and trips I have coming up along with NaNo in July and November. I think ideally it might be best to just call it a break for the rest of the year but that's a super long time for me to selfishly hold all my characters. Regardless it'll be at least a few months. Maybe August or September. Hopefully a break will help me get my groove back and focusing on other stuff will help. Maybe I'll just naturally find my muses again and come back sooner. I don't know.
In the meantime if you need to get in touch with me, send me an email. (Oh, and if you want to drop by my Twitch streams this is my channel: www.twitch.tv/piratesavvy I play a lot of point-and-click games and will be starting a Dragon Age: Origins playthrough later this month.)
I appreciate your understanding and patience during this time as I try to figure my life out and get my health back on track. You are all so wonderful and I most certainly don't deserve you. XOXO

Basil of Baker Street: Hope the cosplay goes well. I'm putting away a little extra for a con in a few weeks. and yay cats, they're always good company. Except for that one who slaps me unprovoked XD. So what cosplays do you have in mind unless they're secret?

Basil of Baker Street: Awesome. Had to look up Jojo because I'm not hip with the modern pop culture but I hope they turn out well.

Professor Ratigan: I only just started watching the anime last year and I haven't even touched the manga, so I'm barely hip with it lol. fortunately I have my cosplay buddy guiding me through the whole experience

Professor Ratigan: also I finally finished the gloves! They were more of a pain to work with than I expected, but they'll hold together... I hope...
