A Sweet Goodbye
So, I’ve been in the RWBY FNDM, and roleplaying within the FNDM since December 2013, and have been on Tumblr since Summer of 2012. It’s with great regret… Mostly… That I go ahead and archive this blog and @timetells-and-turntables .
I’ve come to this decision for multiple reasons.
1. INACTIVITY – Willow Schnee was a passion project for me who never really saw much by way of roleplay. Of course I can take the blame, by not offering up starter calls and not asking for a roleplay or two; but really I have. The world has spoken and I will neatly bow to the inevitable.
2. DISCORD – I lost my WiFi about two weeks ago. Confession: it went back up three days later. So I watched and waited out of curiosity, and I realized… No one noticed. Not a single concerned message, not a single friend reached out. Again, I bow to the inevitable. I don’t blame them, you. I simply can’t wait for people to notice me during a time in my life where anyone there would be a special gift.
3. RWBY – I can say without a doubt that I am one of the most casual fans you’ll ever meet. I don’t complain about characters or writing, I just complain about the complainers ruining my enjoyment of the show. Look, Monty Oum stopped me from comitting suicide in early 2013. I love his work and personally love his work more than Studio Ghibli or Trigger. But, honestly, you Negative Nancy’s and Downer Dru’s are just so draining. The finale of V5 should have left me amazed. Instead, it left me cold because it seemed I was the only fan pleased by the turn of events. I’ll continue watching, of course. Just alone and in the dark because you lot are rabid sometimes.
4. HER – I’ve lost my muse, my inspiration and my best friend, and those who stepped up after her to take the place of a dear friend and roleplay partner, simply turned their backs on me one by one with no explanation, just like she did. Internet anominity has fucked my heart over for the last time.
I may return one day, perhaps during the new volume. But with bills piling high, not a job lead in sight, and rotten skin hamging off my hands, I think it’s safe to call it quits. It’s been fun.
I’ll be leaving this and @timetells-and-turntables up, for now. Discord, however, will be cleaned up today, and truly, deleting some of you will be a hard time.
But it’s for the best. Thanks for everything.
