@SamSpyroxis: I like new potential friends :3 I'm down to try. I stink at maintaining friendships x.x but of you can pick up after a communication hiatus, so can I x3

@Onyx Popcorn: I'm pretty terrible at maintaining friendships too to be honest x.x Honestly, I think the main person I talked to here is no longer active, granted they only logged in like twice every three months.... But still XD Hoping they'll pop up again, but in the meantime there's no choice but to make new friends to talk to >:3 or else I'll just go crawl in a blanket nest and lurk forever, which while nice and toasty sounds a bit lonely too

@SamSpyroxis: Lurking is okay, but indeed lonely. I'd definitely recommend friends. I think I'm still recovering from life kinda sending my last group of close friends separate ways. Oh well I guess.

Do you have any favorite topics to talk about?

@Onyx Popcorn: Yeah, that's always hard when it happens :c I actually managed to reconnect with one of my old friends last year so that's been good. :3 I only have like 2 close friends though (the old one included, plus a high school buddy), so if something happened to them I'd just be lost at this point. I'm not entirely sure how to make irl friends since I don't go to school and I'd really rather not socialize with anyone at my workplace...

Usually for me it's art, video games, and occasionally some movies or anime/manga. And my dog, he's just a little cutie pie >w< What about you? :3

I have a few friends. Nobody I wanna be super close with unfortunately, but I have some folks I can count on. I just miss the old ones. And that makes sense. Sometimes you just don't click with your coworkers or something.

Same, actually, haha! Except more art and anime than video games and my dog is about sixty pounds of derp, curiosity and food choice regrets. I'm in a bit of an art slump so I've been rewatching some cheesy magical girl animes xD

@Onyx Popcorn: That's understandable. I think for me it's mostly the daily interactions of randomness we had with any of the old ones I don't talk to anymore, but our interests just didn't match up well enough anymore. I still enjoy their company on the odd chance we get together, but I also feel very out of place, ya know? Granted the old friends I had kinda went the "let's go drink and party" route while I've always been the "I'll just stay inside and curl up with a movie or some youtube and a nice glass of tea" type of person XD

Lol, that's cool :P I've noticed a lot of people on avi sites have at least some interest in art too, whether it's collecting or making it :3 (I mean, there's plenty that are both too, but it's generally at least one or the other XD) My little doggo's about 23 pounds I think? He's a little fluffy mess but he's always so happy just seeing him brightens up my day :3
I can relate to the art slump x.x I've been watching a lot of youtube videos lately, currently rewatching Cry play Okami (I love this game so much )

@samspyroxis: I have a YouTube problem lol

I have a pretty eclectic selection of channels that I watch. Right now I'm on a makeup jag for some reason??? I stay away from the drama channels but I do enjoy the artsy aspect.

Rewatching some old Power Rangers stuff too xD

@Onyx Popcorn: I think most people have a youtube problem, so... That makes it okay right? XD

I don't typically do makeup ones, I stick mainly to let's plays (specifically Markiplier, JackSepticEye, some Game Grumps, and Cryaotic) although I do have a few watercolor artists I watch too (well, listen usually. I like to doodle while they talk XD) I'm definitely not up to date on any youtube drama, not that I try to be anyway but still XD

Every time I think of Power Rangers I just remember watching more recently and laughing at how overly dramatic everyone was when they got knocked down and stuff in the fights XD

@samspyroxis: I think that's why I like Power Rangers so much. It's so cheesy and optimistic. I need that sometimes.

I'm super tired, so I'm gonna go to bed :(

Nice talking with you a bit!

@Onyx Popcorn: I can't help but wonder if that was a requirement when they were doing casting XD Like "excuse me, you were good with this BUT, how dramatic can you be if you were in a fight???"

Technically speaking I should go to bed too, but I like to hate myself in the morning when I deprive myself of sleep :D //slapped

Good night, it was nice talking with you ^w^

@samspyroxis: Haha, I bet it was! Also think you have to have a serious sense of humor as one of the first requirements. Like, "How seriously do you take yourself? Really? Sorry, but what are you doing applying for a monster-of-the-week kids' show? This isn't 90's Batman TAS." lol

Ahahah, I really hope you got some sleep. I'm pretty bad about that myself, honestly. I'm trying to get better, though.

@totalanimefan: Thanks for the heads' up on the hair :3 Already looking forward to this year's events. Looks like Voltra knows how to party :vanora_heart:

@Onyx Popcorn: lol, probably XD

Yeah, I managed to get some sleep :3 Granted I fell asleep way earlier than I wanted to (on accident... but I was already in bed watching stuff, so...)

@samspyroxis: Sleep is good :vivihappy: And sleeping more just usually means your body needs it
@totalanimefan: Does the Events forum keep former event threads? Is there an archive or something? I'd like to go through it

@totalanimefan: Cool! I've been told it sounds short or rude sometimes.

How do, if you don't mind me asking?

I have many issues, gender things among them
I also have a ballet obsession and an unhealthy interest in Sonic the Hedgehog games. Take as you will, haha!
