Stop, just stop. The time skip HASN'T ruined everything. Are there things that don't add up? Yes, but that's not because of the timeskip, but the script (hence the plothole I'm still not thrilled with, but have pretty much decided to basically ignore as it will just drive me nuts). There are some things that we needed the time jump to see. Again, Lian in a prime example. I would not have been as stunned by her appearance if I had seen Roy and Jade's relationship develop. We all would've seen that little girl coming. It wouldn't have been a big deal.

So, yeah, time skip has it's merits. Those of you who can't see that, well, I'm sorry you feel that way. You're entitled to your own opinions. Just don't try to shove your own thoughts down our throats and then yell at us for trying to explain why we feel the opposite. No one likes a hypocrite.

We've got a lot more drama coming down the pike, as well, seeing as it's only 5 episodes in and we've got 15 to go (and who knows how many hiatuses between now and then, lol).
