NOTE: Read the Diary of Laney before, as this contains light spoilers.
Well, first off, in first place we have

with Mawlly.
Mawlly was chosen because she easily fits in with my story, along the facts of being a bit of a misfit, and just being a fun character to write about. Mawlly will be one of the four main characters of the series, as a prize of first place.
Cevaz also gave me the most depth in character development, and the longest note out of all.
Second we have

with Sly.
Sly was a neat character who is a smeargle whose paint changes functioning as a mood ring. I like the character, but a somewhat lonely kid is the opposite of what I need as a main character in this story, but fits well in second place as a member on Group 8 team.
Other entries, to the two of you, I liked that you showed interest, and don't feel bad that I didn't pick you, but I preferred my other two choices, and thanks for entering. I might cameo each of your characters in.
Thanks to all the contestants, and I hope you have fun!
