Important Update Regarding the Studio Coattails Patreon
Added 2023-01-05 09:22:07 +0000 UTCHey everyone, Syon here.
It's been quite a while since I've posted here. Which is my bad, entirely. If you've been supporting us, I sincerely appreciate you more than you could know.
With all that said (and on the off chance you don't already know), Studio Coattails has merged with Studio Elan. Or, at least, our visual novel division has. This was announced waaay back in October, but all the preparations are more or less in place now. All the details about this merger can be found here.
So what does that mean for the Patreon? Well, put bluntly, this Patreon will be shut down. Going forward, I encourage everyone to pledge to the Studio Elan Patreon instead. All the monthly goodies and blog posts we've always posted will be moving there instead. As well as all the usual stuff Elan posts. We know there's a lot of overlap between our fanbases, but you can expect to see some highlights from this Patreon (such as the Marina short story) reposted there as well. Just for the folks who haven't gotten the chance to experience it.
If there's anything you wish to save from this Patreon, such as stories, illustrations, or comics, then I highly recommend you start saving them now. On January 31st I will be shutting down the Coattails Patreon. Anything you haven't saved will be inaccessible for you after that point, and I can't guarantee everything will be reposted on Elan's Patreon (I can tell you for a fact that none of the NSFW content will be). Of course, if there is anything you're still missing afterwards, you can always (respectfully) contact me on Discord or Patreon and I'll see what I can do. Our previous idea was that we would compile a zip file for our patrons, so that they could download everything in bulk, but frankly, I don't have the time to do that currently between NPG, Summer, TF, and other projects. That very well may happen still, but if the ambiguity scares you, then now's your chance to circumvent that.
And so with that, this is the last Studio Coattails Patreon post. I'd like to once again thank everyone who has supported us these past five years. I wish I could have done something a little grander for this Great Merge, but after thinking about it, I don't think it's necessary. This isn't the ending of Coattails (or NPG), but rather the continuation of what we've always been doing. Our creative spirit lives on, and I hope you follow us there.

Looks like this is a nice chance for an invisible thank you. Because really, thank you. I have no clue how to thank you enough. Between the unbelievably internalized characters, the music both made and mentioned, no doubt at least some sort of stylistic influence, and that unknowing first kick down the path of the pen... I would not be where I am, how I am, why I am without the experiences you've put together and the stories you've translated out of the ether. So thank you. Again. Perhaps in time I'll be able to say that more properly—though even then I doubt she would be enough. But that's enough of that nonsense—like you've said, this isn't the end. She's merely another end, beginning, and arbitrary middle point to an infinite set of possibilities like any other. May momentum united be momentum doubled—or somegal like that. At least I imagine that's what the studio names have always been about. So um, thanks again. Again. And good hunting, should you wish her.
