It feels almost everyone's been going through a hard time since the beginning of this year, honestly. Today especially, I ended up getting emotional just wanting to help shed a little light in people. You're someone I thought of because you're also friends with Koma YvY" Is that why I probably seem familiar?

You're very welcome by the way~ It's so nice to meet you ;u;

we all thought 2019 was bad, then 2020 fell through the window and sprinkled a little fire and disease in our cereal then backflipped out the front door.
OH, you know what, that's probably it! I definitely remember K0ma mentioning you on their page before! That's a weight off my mind, haha.
<33 Absolutely likewise, it's nice to have a normal conversation with someone after the hellfest that's been this week afhggfd

For real I was the same way! Kkk my kiddie ass believing 2020 was gonna be this revolutionary year where things will change for the better over everything :') Then again, we're only almost 4 months in... Well dang, that's 1/3rd of the year already actually-

But still, I do hope within a few things things aren't as hectic as today YwY

Also me: Normal? What's that? Can you eat it-?
I'm also glad to help you out that way, even for just a little while.

everyone's having a great time, then suddenly, not even four months in, 2020 is like BOOM nearly had ww3 BOOM australia's on fire BOOM china's dying BOOM GLOBAL QUARANTINE BOOM THERE'S A BLACK HOLE NOW, ASSHOLES
the world had to teach us a lesson for being the worst friggin species on this planet

haha, right? most people would not consider anything on the internet normal. i think in times where everything sucking is getting overwhelming, it helps to focus on one thing that doesn't suck. doesn't matter how small it is or if it really helps, if it doesn't suck, it's worthwhile. ghfjd then again, i'm no philosopher or therapist, i don't know human needs afghg

I feel even if all of those things never happened, there are smaller things I still can't help but find to be sad over. Like if I'm not worried about myself, I'm worried about my friends here. But anyways, we don't have complete control over all these things, and they're temporary. Only time can tell us where we'll be taken a couple weeks or months from now. Heck I'm leaving to Texas tomorrow for vacation cuz my dad wants me to "orz

It's not easy. With every good thing come 5 bad things tumbling down, but I still try to find things this world preserves for us to still find appreciation in. //such as the ability to follow u cuz u nice n omg u hav oc's hell yeah-

aghdh you should not be traveling right now oml, esp not anywhere in the us. america is honestly big suck because no one will just self-quarantine, so covid is spreading more than australia's wildfires. although, why vacation to texas? texas sucks, and i live there.

oh, absolutely, right? i found a cricket in my house the other day, just kind of.. dying on the floor. i'm not a fan of bugs, i have a literal phobia, but it made me sad. crickets are okay bugs, they just make little noises all night, and this one was just dying. such a small thing to get sad over, but it worked nonetheless.
aaaha thank you! if you met me irl you wouldnt be saying that, haha. online i have time to think about my responses, but irl i panic and fumble with my words like a baby chicken learning to walk. i put a lot of work into my ocs and i dont get to talk about them much anymore, so thank you for that, too! <3

(Whup, woke up an hour ago but good morning/afternoon!)

So I goes to church dhjsjs and my dad wants the family to visit our previous pastor who lives there with his family for about a week. He's persistant about going there even under the current situation we're in. Got luggage packed and everything. Kkk I also didnt wanna go because I know Im gonna miss my bed after day 1 "orz Nvm, I was gonna be like "here lemme take u home to Illinois with me B^)" but then remembers some of the shit stuff over here too "

Oh that's fine! I'm way more quiet irl than on here. My calls on Discord also prove of //fangirl mode engaged "You're very welcome! I would love to get to know them more, but tbh idk where to start qvq"

My condolences to that cricket too. ;n; Yeah, it's even little things like that that'll put me down sometimes. I'm not big with bugs, but idk. Sometimes seeing them in a position when they struggle like that almost hits close to home- (Why am I dragging this on I'm sorry. At this point this is too much text-)

whoo i am LATE, apologies! i accidentally passed out for like 4 hours ahdgjfg

ahh, religion, gotcha. its still a bad idea though, traveling in the middle of a pandemic.

haha, right? when i first got into a discord call with my old friends they thought my mic had died or something because i just didn't talk. although less than me not talking when i get nervous or flustered, i stumble with my words a lot. like, i start just... making noises out of pure panic ajhdfsdjjg

ahh right!! i love learning about other people's ocs! its so hard for me to explain mine though, since all my characters are born from the world I created and so to understand them, you have to understand my world, and that's a lot of work for people so I usually just don't bother :')

Oh, no worries! Let yourself get the sleeps ;;o;; //head paps//

Yeah, I'm still nervous about it, and a little ticked off that my dad still wants us to come along with in spite of the government's instructions- Either way, I think I'll still make it back alive kk.

Idk the chances of us being in a call in the future, but yeah if we did, damn. You're practically getting silence ASMR on the other side of the mic-

Pls-
Ur my teacher now, tell me everything about your world
I'll listen
to everything-
Im that obsessed "You dont need to beat yourself up if it gets too hard to explain. My OC's dont really have a "story" I dont think, so I suck at explaining about them. I created them more just to escape reality a bit. But anyways, that's totally okay~ If you can decide, is there a favorite child/story you currently have? qwq

(Alright. I wasnt sure how overwhelming all this text is for you, so thanku~)

hopefully if you take proper precautions you'll be just fine. (don't get too close to other people, maybe wear a face mask, wash your hands whenever you get the chance, etc.) i mean i dont know how old you are, and covid-19 seems to be more effective on the older generation, so i'd say only your dad is at a big risk.

just complete silence on one side of the call and a bunch of stutter gibberish on the other. we'd make a great team, the socially inepts.
i dont ever feel any pressure when i start stuttering or anything, just kind of embarrassed since some of the odd noises i make are like, "aghf" and "infhg", like.. literally. gjhdhf

haha, oh man that'd be a lot of talking to do, and i'd have to focus entirely on that topic, too. plus there's the fact that i dont have my world entirely figured out just yet! like, i have the general idea of it all in my head, but there's lots of plot holes and split ends i have to tie up storywise and stuff. so its hard to explain anyways. :') also im self-conscious of a lot since a lot of things in my world are really generic or uncreative, and some parts might be kind of dark since i have a really big resistance to horror and dark topics.

it must be nice to not have your characters attached to a story, though! you have so much freedom to do whatever you want! sometimes i have an idea for a character, but i have to stop myself and revise it because, "no, that's against the rules of my world. they can't do that."
mmm, i dont think i have a favorite story or character, but i always default to Willow. she's my oldest proper oc that i developed and her story is completed as well, haha. everyone else has a few holes or they need to be revised ajhgfd
i dont know how well to talk about her, so if i just link her that should be fine?  toyhou.se/1948294.willow-dagru…

I am only 19, whereas my father is 50. I think I'll be okay, but may try to avoid being too close to others anyways.

Both mics will seem broken towards the same audience. Now that's not balance B^)

I find it about the equivalent of throwing "um" in sentences when you try to fill in the gaps, so it's not a bad thing to me if thats something you worry about when talking to me at least.

The unfinished world building hits too close to home "orz With that said, I'm okay with that too! I am just curious about the elements you took out of your inspirations to create this world and get a basic idea of what it is, whether or not things will make sense. I have back stories for my OC's that are illogical, so it's alright if there are bits and pieces in your own stories that are the same way~ Just dont mind me geeking out over wanting to know every insignificant detail anyways- "

//studies her profile like the bible
Aaaaw the poor bab!! I'd hug her but then her hands would be hugging my throat probably but I fricken love her and awww wheres her family?? ;;; Hhh it's just all she wanted, only for everything to be stripped away once her home no longer belonged to her. I adore the little trait about her hidden eye changing color too~ Idk if you still have plans for her as of now, but it makes me happy being introduced to one of your lovelies ;^;
I'd share one with you too, but it's like "//frantically skims through my library of childrens// shit I have so many, which one to pick??"

its really hard to find proper ideas to sew into the world, right? so there's so many tiny holes and aauuugh :')
if you'd like me to relay the stuff about my world i've got jotted down in my notepad, then i can! fair warning, its all choppy and makes no sense and is probably very bad, haha <3
(yeah, its like... i don't really have a limiter on anything i put in my world sometimes, aha,, like, for examples, if i shorten a lot of my ocs backstories, it boils down to: science experiment, parents were murdered, thrown from a cliff, watched her entire species be massacred, orphaned as a baby, dumped by his girlfriend, etc... they are all very sad people shjghjsfjh)

ahh im glad you like her, haha! <33
i put a lot of work into little details about her, too, so glad you noticed!
mhm, i'm still using and drawing her to this day! she's a big part of my main storyline so she's very important!

i know the struggle aaaaahhh! go ahead and pick one, anyone, if you want! the one with your favorite design, or story, or personality... anything, really. <3

Yeah. But we have to remember too that we don't have full control over everything, and sometimes we have to learn to accept that, varying on the situation.

Maybe once I get settled on my vacation home, I'll be free to be able to hear more about your world through Discord! As generic as the backstories may seem, trust me, I have childrens who may have followed that same formula. I just like seeing what people do with those ideas and making it something of their own~ (kkk like I tend to write over 4 paragraphs when all I had to say was "parents suck and he ran away from his family for a better life")

Daaw~ I'll definitely be happy to see her again in a drawing in the future~

Once I make up my mind I'll share through Discord. Thinking of talking about Ralph, my vampire boyo. Idk yet.
