So, actually, two questions:

Do you want to skip the occasional few days?

If so, what do you want to do in terms of the interval between right now (Day One in the game) and What Comes Next?
1a.) I think skipping around is a little bit better, personally... although it really doesn't matter.

and, on that note:

b.) I'd think a jump of two/three days would be good here, on the assumption that Roggie is either intransigent to reopening negotiations or refuses to contemplate them until Skittles is fully functional. Either way, a pause of two/three days is fine by me.

Fine with me. Though, what would be going on? Will we just have been sitting around in our rooms waiting for Roggie's decision?

Blast. Should have checked before I jumped in...sorry if my awakening Skittles was baad. Maybe we could round up today with the arrival of some Troll-Nurses to take Skittles into Care.

I'm all for skipping days.

Skipping days is fine with me. Not more than three seems good, and no more than two seems better.

EDIT: And I like the idea of Skittles going into "Care" ... whether she wants it or not...

What everyone else said about skipping days. It's fine with me.
