Hi, just thought I will drop different spotlight at this case. I was Rikku's classmate for 3 years, I kinda know some stuff about her personal life. I totally don't want to defend her, all is clear - she took money and disappeared. Anyway, as far as I had informations she had really hard times and even I don't know what's going on with her now. She failed year at school, her family was kind of poor, she lost internet connection suddenly, she was constantly moving from apartment to apartment, her parents were really rough on her so it also leaves a mark on personality. At some point it may happened that she was homeless and for sure living around friends apartments without own money. She was unemployed and these commissions were her only income. She REALLY needed money to live and that's the reason of low prices. Later her scanner broke and she couldn't continue, yet I am sure she would offer refunds, but I am also sure she didn't have money to refund. I commissioned her many times and as well experienced delays, but sooner or later all orders were completed. I really didn't want to look like some kind of white knight, but I'm sure she didn't share these details anywhere. Just letting you know.
