Everyone

I'm giving everyone the appreciation that they rightfully deserve here. It's tough for me to single out just one person, because you all contribute to this site and make it special in a way that I can only ever dream of doing. I sincerely doubt I'll *ever* get to that level, to be honest. But you all prove that this is a community first and a roleplay second, and it's worthy of admiration. Thank you for being role models.

I want to thank everyone for being around. I won't say I've read every single thread but I do enjoy dropping in and lurk reading many of your stories and most of all, being able to chat with you in a safe space, has gotten me through different parts of my life, especially recently. Don't hesitate to approach me if you want to write something and if you're not on our Discord, I'll read PM requests too in case you like my plotter and want to write with me (you'll know who I am, I'm the second recent topic in that forum =PP )

The last few years, Adventu has become a family to me. You guys have been there for me through a rollercoaster of university, a pandemic, and many struggles with my health. You turned a froggy whim into a meme dream that found life in the site’s lore itself. When Fin said that this is very much my site, she was right and I will continue to say for years to come that this is my home. Thank you for all the years so far, and hopefully there will be many more to come.

When I was a twenty-two year old college student, I was too paralyzed by fear of inadequacy to write and I was desperately looking for an outlet. That’s when I stumbled upon baby Adventu and I took up writing here mostly so that I could geek out over my favorite characters. Since then, I’ve seen it grow so much. I’ve seen some good times and some bad times, but I always came back because this isn’t just a site for me. It’s a community. It’s a home. I can’t even begin to tell you all how much you mean to me. Even in my darkest times, I’ve known that you’re there in the Discord waiting for me to get my head on straight and giving me all the time I’d need. You all have been such a positive influence on my life, and I can honestly say that the only reason I managed to get through that writing paralyzation to keep doing what I love is because all of you have helped me and given me a place where I can write without judgment. Thank you so much. Whether you’re a veteran or entirely new, you help to give my life meaning. Thank you.

To All, Past and Present

If not for past members, there’d be no present. To the friends we gained and lost, I cherish each beat. To those who have left I hold hope that we’ll cross paths again. You all left an impact. Never forget. To those who remain, may we continue striving!

Akira

Your consistent stream of horny on main always makes me cackle. Also HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Which will be a day late when this is posted probably.

I was so happy to see you in chat yesterday! Happy belated birthday, Akira! I really hope to see you more and of course to write with you again. I know how life goes and sometimes writing in a roleplay site just isn’t in the cards (believe me, I’ve been there time and again), but I’ve always enjoyed writing with you and I hope to do it again soon. All the best birthday wishes and beyond!

Argent

You are so creative with your characters’ backgrounds, and I love how descriptive you are in your writing.

Argent is so fun. And most importantly, always supports my Yuffie nonsense. Thank you Argent!

Simply great! Helped me with advice a few times i needed it, and in general warm and nice to talk to ^^

I know I don’t respond much when you flood my DMs with your fascination of the day, but I’m listening I swear. Your consistent enthusiasm is infectious and you really do go the extra mile with your writing and character work.

I always see you in the chat cheering everyone on and it's always such a surge of positive energy for everyone involved. Your love of the older games gives them some much deserved love that they might not have gotten otherwise, and shined on some much deserved light.

You’re a positive influence on everyone around you. You show enthusiasm for people’s lives, their troubles, and their ideas. You’re always rooting for people when they need it and encouraging their creativity. I’m rooting for you too. How could I not after all the time we’ve been writing together, both part of this same little niche community that keeps drawing us both back? You’ve been a part of it from almost the beginning and have been a pivotal part of making it what it is today. In short, I appreciate you. Fully.

You are so sweet and so amazing and I always love all of your characters and everything you write. I hope you're always here creating and making such awesome memories with us.

Blacksuit

I know you’re not in the Discord right now, but I smile every time I see you updated something. You are so fun to plot with too!

I don't know if she will read this but I hope so. I always love writing with Black Suit, and their love of FFIX and appreciation for the depths of the lore always inspires me and makes me feel like I'm not alone (along with Fin!) in loving that game. I really admire how they can take such minor characters and turn them into such major players. Hilda is amazing.

I hope that you see this, Suit. It’s crazy how long we’ve been roleplaying together. I understand real life stress and BOY do I understand needing a break from the Discord, but I want you to know that I miss your presence there. Every time that I see a reply from you, I just smile. That hasn’t changed except that now I get to sleuth it out on the site for myself. You’ve consistently pushed my characters in ways that I didn’t think were possible. You’ve been a great writer, a great roleplay partner, and a great friend. I hope you’re doing well, and I hope you stick around or at least pop back after a break so that we can keep being creative together.

Braver

Braver's love of Final Fantasy 7 is just so infectious and always keeps me going, and making me want to write with him more and more.

Still the best Cloud the site’s seen. You understand your characters at a higher level and the complexity is always fun to experience. We’ll free Gulag Gladdy soon!

How you so perfectly capture Cloud and Gladio I don't know, but I really envy it. I love your character ideas with Bakunin, and you're also the reason I've been eyeballing getting a modded N64 off of Etsy.

You are seriously one of the funniest people I know. Also the one with the best and most compelling 90s nostalgia. Also potentially the most communist. For real though, I couldn’t ask for a better Cloud. Your muscley men might all have their big muscles in common, but they’ve all been quite different on the inside, and I’ve loved each and everyone of them. Sometimes I’m sitting here, living in this country, and I think, “You know, I could take Braver up on his idea of a roleplay commune in Canada. I could do that.” And boy. Does that ever sound tempting. Though I think we might run into arguments when forming the rules for that commune. Are we allowed to acknowledge the existence of the FF7 compilation on this commune? Asking the real questions.

You have the best ideas and seem to just live in my brain and know exactly what I'm going to pumped for. Thank you for torturing characters with me, and I can't believe we'll finally escape the Gulag this year and get these dudes a much needed vacation LMAO. But seriously, writing with you is one of my absolute favorite things to do and I'm so happy I've gotten to become friends with you. Now go buy our island already.

Destati

I love how enthusiastic you are, and Lumina’s character arc has been an absolute joy to witness.

You and I better watch it, else we might be chaotic sisters. You’ve been nothing but a breath of fresh air for the place. Your attention to detail, plot, and lore are to die for. Not to mention you’re clearly very sweet.

I of course appreciate you for the wonderful plots were able to write together, but more than that your a great friend I've known for a while now and think a lot of, Your also very understanding of the time it takes me to do my posts and i appreciate that SO much. I like to think us close friends, and im here for you anytime you need me, thank you!

Based Claire. We really only recently started to write together much, but it made me very quickly regret that we’ve been on the same site for so long without either writing or interacting much. You’ve really quickly become one of my favorite writing partners on the site, and someone I call a friend, and you’ve done a lot in shooting my muse for Adventu back into overdrive. You are absurdly creative with Claire and Lumina and the story you’ve weaved taking points from their versions past and present to have essentially Lumina, Lightning and Claire all at once while continuing old stories from the site’s onset, is nothing short of remarkable creatively. I really look forward to seeing how your stories continue to unfold.

I haven’t written with you much, but I appreciate your very presence, your optimism, your enthusiasm, your ideas, your creativity. At risk of revealing who this is, I am so pleased to have you on staff. From second one, you were so full of excitement that it made something that should have been stressful for me (finding and onboarding new moderators) into something joyful. In such a short time, you’ve already been a huge help, and I appreciate every question you ask. I appreciate how active you’ve been on the Discord and on the site – I truly can’t keep up with how much you’ve written in the past month and I respect the hell out of it. I don’t fully comprehend your deep lore FF13 plans, but I can tell it’s clever and I know that I’ll love it. And of course, I love any time that I get to break into the archives and do some sleuthing for somebody. Bringing you on staff was one of the best choices we could have made. I mean that, and I’m just so glad to have you.

You're always keeping things going and keeping it interesting. I love your use of original plots and bringing in small NPCs to help tell your stories. You practically breathe Lumina, always urging for chaos to overtake plots.

Dust

You are one of the funnest people on-site, and your open thread ideas are always so creative. Plus your taste in music is a 10.

Dust is amazing because of their enthusiasm for all things. I can quite often get like way too negative, and it's just so refreshing to have someone who loves and sees the best in everything coming out, and they really get me excited and hyped for games I might otherwise not even think about.

You've always brought such an entertaining flair to the site with your characters, and Sassmaster Supreme D'usian has been such a treat to see in action after years of teasing.

We have been through so much together. So, so much. An eight year site anniversary really makes me sit back and go “Holy shit, these people have helped shape my life for that long.” It’s to the point that I couldn’t imagine life without them. You’ve been such a positive influence on my life, Dust. You and your characters, of course, because I’ve written with them so many times. I remember when you and I both had eight characters each and somehow managed to make it happen, and every time I wrote with a new one of yours, it was just as different as the last right down to the narration. I hope you’re doing well, man. And one day…one day, we shall cosplay together. I’ve got all the pieces ready. We just need a plan of action.

You're one of my absolute faves and I'm glad you're always here to share a laugh with. We're always on the same page with our feelings and share a lot of love and grief, but its always a good time. Now help me buy some Gaga merch.

Enso

You always take minor characters and do such unique things with them! I love to follow their journeys.

Without a doubt your writing is superb, I tip my hat to you. Your creativity knows no limit which is truly admirable!! Not to mention every meme you post leaves me in stitches. I cannot wait to see what you come up with next.

Enso makes the Gilgamesh memes. It would be a crime not to appreciate them. They are amazing.

Though i know we have not a whole lot, especially lately, your always fun to talk to! and nice. One of my biggest regrets is still not having Krile and Gilgamesh fun when i wrote her.

Your humor’s on point and I always love how creative you can get with your character ideas!

I love how you always think outside the box. You always take characters that most wouldn't really blink at and give them a life of their own, and then give them a story of their own. Your ideas are wonderfully unorthodox and always interesting. Your MS paint edits are always good for a laugh, too.

Oh my gosh, Enso. You’re always a joy to talk to. You’re also a joy to write with. I have never before in my life seen narration that switches so drastically with each character and I’m in love with it. You’ve been around for, gosh, years now, and I can honestly say that writing with you has made ME a better writer just by making me consider my own narrative choices. You’re hilarious in chat. You’re positive in the community. And your Gilgamesh narration makes me laugh. Every single time.

You're one of the funniest people here and I love all of your ideas and writing with you. You have such a unique take on everything and such awesome character ideas. Getting to create with you is a blast! Thanks for being so much fun to be around.

Erin

I don't write with Erin enough, but she's so sweet, kind and an amazing writer, and such a passionate fan. I am so jealous of her and Fin's Final Fantasy convention adventures!

You’ve played a strong variety of characters since arriving from Yuna to Noctis and I love your takes on all of them! I couldn’t imagine a better person to play either of those very important characters and you’ve done them serious justice.

Oh my gosh, you are the best Yuna I’ve ever seen. Like the BEST. Your love of FFX shines through in everything you do with her, and she’s a hard character to write in the best of times let alone in an alternate world! I love, love, LOVE writing with you. Let’s plot together sometime, okay?

My partner in life, love, and roleplay. Where would I be without you? Okay, taking our shared personal lives, bonded in matrimony out of this and sticking just to Adventu, I can’t even count how many threads we’ve had together. You know how we used to write stories and pass them back and forth on notebooks in high school? I missed that. I know we have our own instant message roleplay (boy do we) but it’s not quite the same as being able to marvel at your style and bounce off your tone and all the subtle little bits that get left out of instant message. Back in middle school, I used to look forward to exchanging our notebook stories every day on the bus so I could read the next chapter in the stories you had written and so that I could share my own. It took a few years to get you on Adventu, but I have no regrets. You’re integral to it now. No going back. And yes, maybe one day I’ll bring back Ardyn just for you.

I wish I could be as versatile as you. Noctis, Genesis, and Yuna are all completely different characters, yet you manage to play all of them so very well. You're always so open to any ideas thrown your way and willing to roll with how things go down, even if it results in the bad times.

You're so absolutely sweet and a wonderful writer. I love writing with you, especially Genesis, knowing its always going to be an emotional ride. Thank you for being so awesome!

Fin

My absolute favorite rp forum buddy. Your responses are always entertaining.

By far your take on Kuja is the best I’ve ever read. I’ll be real though, you're also the best Sephiroth, Celes, Faris (the list continues) I’ve read. There’s a passion that carries through all of your characters, lending them unique voices that makes reading them a blast. Thank you for stepping into administration some time ago. It truly led to a wonderful community.

Fin writes my fav silver haired villains on the board. Which in any other franchise would be very specific, but, hey, this is Final Fantasy. She's always enthusiastic, fun, has good plot ideas, and really likes FFIX which I appreciate. She's a super talented writer and cosplayer and I feel super lucky every time I get to chat with her.

Your great! nice, understanding and helpful in my eyes, I still appreciate the warm welcome you and the other staff a the time gave me when i first came so longggg ago. Thank you so much for welcoming me then and still welcoming me now!

Whenever I've needed to know little things about the lore of Zephon, you've been there to answer my questions and in turn, gave me the tools any good gardener needs. Without your tireless efforts to keep this backyard accessible, I wouldn't be able to celebrate 4 years with Adventu thus far. I eagerly look forward to being able to write with you in the future~

Crap I don’t know what to say that I don’t say every year at this point lol. You work extremely hard for this site, sometimes taking on more at once than you should, but that’s just the kind of site owner you are. And yet still take the time to write some fantastic narratives with a cast of really varied and fun characters with completely different headspaces and ways of being. And then you also find time to be there when someone’s down. You’re one of the most openly supportive people on the site of basically anybody that needs it and to this day I still consider you one of my best friends. I’m still on this site because of you, and I’m grateful for that.

You've always thrown in your all to make the site a wonderful place to write and enjoy. You've always been open to different dynamics and I really appreciate that. Your Prompto is dead on and I've always loved how you made Celes your own. Your Sephiroth is the perfect Straight Man to all the insanity that happens on this site, and it's fun to watch him deal with the chaos.

Thank you for always being awesome to write with and inspiring me. Thank you for being so understanding as well for when life happens. It's clear how much you care about everyone and I can't thank you enough for everything you've done.

Grand Dota

I’ve loved your creativity with the FF8 sorceresses! Hope we can thread together soon.

Can I say that I’ve never seen anyone play a sorceress from the past before? And that as soon as I read your application, I had to wonder WHY I hadn’t? It’s such a great idea, and yet it had never before occurred to me. I hope that you keep up those ideas and that you stick with us for a while. I may not know you well personally, but I’m glad that you found your way to our weird little corner of the internet. You fit right in.

Han

TORNADO GIRL GO WOOSH. Also HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

A little froggie told me it was your birthday today. Happy birthday, Han! I know you need breaks here and there, but I’m always glad when you pop in and we get to talk – or even better when I get to reactivate one of your characters! Please take Eiko. I’m team Eiko! Even if your Rem is to die for.

Josh

You are always down to plot with anyone, and you are so welcoming to new people. I appreciate you so much. I feel like you single-handedly make Zephon less intimidating for newcomers.

Thanks for tolerating my nonsense as much as you do. You brought a lot to a site, and I’m sure you’ll continue to contribute for years to come. Seeing both you evolve as a writer simultaneously alongside Caius’s growth has been one heck of a ride. Walk tall.

I am not sure Josh is a person and not a posting machine sent back from the future to ruin my productivity. He's a one man machine for keeping Adventu active, developing stories and threads with everyone, and shaping the Adventu universe. I can't imagine the site without him.

THE CONSTANT UNENDING PUNS SERIOUSLY I HAVE NOT PLAYED HER IN YEARS NO I...[/s] AHEM Your great Josh! I've known you for a long time now to, and I always enjoy reading your posts whether there with me, or in a different topic all together, your stories are fun to read! I also thank you for being understanding of the time it takes me to write, even if you mess with me about it LOL

Knowing that we just missed each other by like a post in an event long ago, is going to be a story told for times to come. Having been able to write with you in more recent years has been an absolute pleasure. Thanks to your push, I feel I'll be able to write with even more people and share the small slice of Adventu I've carved for myself so long ago. Best of all, thanks to you, I can harvest the seeds I planted long ago so let me serenade you with this bit of appreciation! The cornerstone of many a member's activity <3

Thank you for always being there to help introduce new people to the site and always willing to write with others. Not only is Caius the tour guide for Zephon, you tend to be the welcome guide for anyone who pokes their head into the server. Caius does his best but he can only do so much, considering who he has to work with.

I’m not going to lie. This was the hardest for me to write. I don’t know what to say here that I haven’t already said to you. You don’t deserve the abuse you get from your parents or online. You don’t deserve what life is throwing at you right now. You are a shining star of positivity even when everything in the world has you down. You give people chances that they maybe don’t deserve, and whether it turns out for better or worse, I’ve always respected that kindness in you. I was asked recently, “What does Josh do on site?” and if I could have reached through the screen, I would have laughed in his face. You welcome everyone and make sure they have a place here. You give everyone a hook to hold onto so that they can get writing and feel immediately like part of the community. You’ve turned this community into an online haven for so many people, myself included. We have our differences sometimes, but I appreciate that too because whether I always agree with your site ideas or not, the fact that you HAVE them and that you are always expressing them has been the engine driving our site forward from the old wild west of roleplay into something structured and beautiful. I need you. Even when I’m frustrated. Even when I’m depressed. Even when I’ve ghosted the site for a few weeks due to mental health. I need you in my life and I need you on site. You’re like my right hand man, dude. And oh boy, I knew I’d start crying writing this one eventually and here come the tears. I’m a leaky faucet in a trenchcoat pretending to be a person so I’ll wrap this up now. Know that you’re cared for. Know that you’re loved. Know that even if you need to take a break and put in an LOA to deal with all the shit life is throwing at you that you’ll always have a home here because you helped build that home. There are people who appreciate you more than anything. Just look at the roster of our members to find them.

Thank you for always being super awesome to everyone on the site and taking such good care of everything. You always make everyone feel so welcome and are always ready and willing to help out a friend when they need it.

Kuma

Your Pratchett-inspired writing with Mikkel always gets me. We definitely need to write again soon! Everyone should. Everyone could use spoopy Mikkel shenanigans laughter.

I miss Grudge! You bring so much character to LITERAL monsters, and that’s so amazing to me! I know you’re busy and everyone’s busy and an adult and needs time to themselves but I hope you keep sticking around so I can read your perfectly narrated monster writing some more!

I don’t see you much in the Discord and that’s a shame because I’d love to get to know you better. From the moment you first popped into the staff questions channel and asked if you could bring in your FF5 inspired Warriors of Darkness who are all monster races with complex backstories, I knew I was talking to someone special. That was such an off the wall, complicated idea that I could have SWORN you were secretly one of my friends IRL who I consider to be one of the most interesting people I know. I haven’t written with Grudge yet, but might I say that reading Mikkel is an absolute delight? I respect anyone who can do so much with just the narration. It’s not my personal style, but I think that’s why I respect it so much. Anyway, I hope you stick to it so I have more to read AND so that I can see your full vision of Darkness Warriors come to fruition. I’m looking forward to that.

Lala

No matter what community we met in, you were always a stellar part of it. Welcoming, patient, willing to lend a hand whenever someone needed it. I wish you luck with everything you put your mind to!

THE CYBER SLEUTH! With terrifying accuracy, you can find anyone on this site’s history on the site, with ease. It is genuinely scary. You’re also a fantastic writer who is really into everything she does, and a super caring person that doesn’t hesitate to use her medical knowledge to jump in and help whenever someone is in trouble. Super Lala is a pillar of support in our community and for that we salute you!

First off, thank you for everything you've done for the site! It means a lot that even with your busy schedule, you choose to spend your free time with all of us. Watching Angeal try to be normal but be stuck as babysitter is great, and I'm looking forward to Iggy getting out of jail.

This one’s hard for me not because I don’t have enough to say, but because I have way too much. You and I have been writing together for almost eight years now. Even when the site was a wild west, you helped keep me hooked, and even when I’d ghost for a while, you were always one of the reasons I’d come back. We’ve been through so much together – both in writing and personally. I don’t think I could even get into all the brilliant character moments we’ve collaborated on. Kuja’s betrayal of Wolly. Wolly and Faris becoming comrades in arms. Angeal’s forever guilt over Sephiroth as they all slowly, awkwardly heal their damaged relationships. And of course saving Ignis. I promise we’ll get there soon! I was so happy when you offered to come on as an admin after I got the keys to the site, and honestly? So much of what we have here is because of you. Those endless hours long meetings discussing our complete revamp of the site were stressful, but you somehow made them fun. There are so many locations and there’s so much lore that come directly from you and your boundless creative mind. I was sad to see you drop from staff, but I understand 100%. All I want is to keep seeing you around, to keep writing with you, and to hear about the life you’re building. I hope everything is going well and that you and your husband make that life together that you’ve always wanted. And if you’ve got some free time to spare, we’ll always be here. At least as long as the site is standing.

Lamia

You’re always so supportive in the Discord and I love threading with you!

FOREVER IN LOVE AT HOW CUTE YOUR CUORE IS! Serah and Shelke are also well done! Your writing is enchanting~♥ So elegant, graceful, and the music you often share is deserving a chef’s kiss!

My long time partner in crime (sister in crime most of all), without you old seeds planted from a once very cautious member, would not have born fruit. You truly are the saviour of my long form rp for many years. Through the thick of pandemic, we've written together and pushed one another to reach where we are today. So thank you very much, as I feel like I'm evolving more as a writer thanks to your help!

We’ve been writing since I first got here and I’m really happy to see you back and rolling again. Your Serah take is awesome and your narrative style is always worth the wait. I’m sure Galuf would be proud from up in the clouds.

You have such a range of characters and always have. Your Serah is a staple to the site, inspiring so many people and so many threads. It’s amazing to me that someone could write both an adorable child and an emotionless Sviet at the same time. And of course, I miss Krile. I will not participate in the Galuf jokes! But I did truly appreciate when we wrote together and I had the chance to work off your excellent writing and give Faris some real personal growth. Oops, just spoiled the anonymity here. But for real! I’d love to thread with you again, be it with Serah, Shelke, or Cuore. Just say the word and I’ll make it happen.

Leah

We needed another die-hard IX fan, and your Yuffie makes me laugh so much. You do her so perfectly.

I'm super sorry it takes me so long to reply to our rp! but, your fun, and great! and i enjoy rping with you!

IT’S YUFFIN’ TIME! That’s it. That’s the compliment. Well, that and the fact all of your character portrayals are always super fun, over the top and quirky. You bring a unique element to the site and I don’t think we’d be the same without you. Whether it’s Yuffie, Garnet, Maria or STACEE, you are a blast to write with, and a constant barrel of laughs.

Your Yuffie is amazing. A humanoid typhoon that just enters a thread, tears the place apart, and leaves everyone involved wondering what in the world just happened. I love that absolutely no plot survives as planned upon contact with her.

I’ve written with you on so many occasions and your characters never once disappoint. I can say with utmost certainty that your threads are the ones that I ghost read the most just because they’re always entertaining. Your characters are versatile; they’re not all little balls of chaos like Yuffie and they’re not all composed and deep like Garnet, but they always keep that spark that’s unique to you. They’re FUN in a way that’s unique to you. I can’t wait for our next thread together with whichever character you have in mind. I’ll take each and every one of them.

You made me like Yuffie, how dare you. I love how you write your characters and having a thread with you is always a fun and wild ride. I can't wait for my next Yuff-venture, even though my characters will probably hate it bahahaha.

Megan

Your characters are so fun and I’ve enjoyed every thread I’ve been in with you!

I’ve only written with you as Cindy and Tifa so far, but your work with them is top notch and I really enjoy the portrayal! You’re also super friendly and I need to talk to you about plotting again soon when you’re doing better!

You have some true versatility, girl. I should know. I’ve written with at least MOST of your characters at this point. You have brought SO MUCH to our happy little prison break thread. Even if your characters weren’t the focus, it’s been utter delightful chaos, and might I add that your Tifa is absolutely on point. It’s hard to get a character like Tifa right. She’s a little understated – kind and patient, but not afraid to get her hands dirty and kick some ass when the time comes for it. I’ve seen a LOT of Tifas in my time, and I have to say that yours is one of the best I’ve seen. Keep it going. I can’t wait to see what comes next!

You're always so nice in the Discord and your characters are entertaining to play with. It's been a treat watching Tifa trying to juggle the situation between Cloud and Sephiroth.

I appreciate that you're always ready and willing to have fun with everyone! You write your characters so well and I can't wait to have another thread with you someday! You're so sweet and nice and fun to be around.

Mjrn

Cassandra went a year without being poisoned. Time to celebrate! At least until it turns out that the celebration feast was poisoned.

I miss you so much! Your characters were always unique and on point. We never talked as much as I’d have liked, but I could tell just how much you brought to the site, and I appreciate that greatly. I hope that you see this. I really do! Just so you know that you are missed and I hope that you’re doing well!

Nicky

I appreciate you always popping in to ask how people are doing, and I’ve liked seeing Nick’s journey!

It has been a blast fleshing out the University of Magi with you. It's been an outlet and replacement for Harry Potter, with all the stylish trapping of Final Fantasy we could ask for. Your patience and enthusiasm is infectious and I look forward to seeing where our hijinks will lead us.

I don’t know you very well personally, but I know that it takes serious creativity to make an FF1 OC that lasts and cements themselves into the community like you have. I couldn’t do it, and I tried so I know the difficulties. We haven’t threaded yet, but I always smile when I see you reply in your own threads, and I like to keep up with them from time to time. I’m glad you’re here, Nicky. I hope I get to work off of your writing for myself some day.

Nightbloom

I’m so glad you came back! Your writing’s so good and I hope we can thread together soon.

Middy! Always so creative and imaginative, always so full of ideas. And always with great jokes. We’re happy to have you back, Middith!

I missed you while you were gone! In the short time that you’ve been back in the Discord, you have sparked my muse like no other, and I swear you’re doing it on purpose! I love it. I need my muse sparked every now and then, and I hope that you help me turn that spark into a raging fire of creativity. Knowing all of your previous characters, I know that you’re capable of some truly fabulous versatility. It’s so good to see you again! I hope you’re doing well.

You’re honestly just a joy to write with. I smile whenever I get an update from you.

I love your ideas for Terra and how you adapted her for her site return! You clearly exhibit a lot of creativity in what you do and I look forward to seeing how it continues!

You are one of my oldest roleplay buddies. It’s so funny to look back at where we both started. I always loved roleplaying with you even all those years ago because you were fast and you were creative and we shared so many of the same interests. I am THRILLED to see Terra back in your hands again. Not that other Terras in between weren’t good – some were excellent – but it really sends me on a nostalgia trip and just brings a smile to my face. I’m glad you’re here, SVB. I miss you whenever you’re on break.

I can't tell you how delighted we are to have a Terra, and Monori's a nice counterbalance considering the other Warriors of Light in play are frankly insane in their own weird ways.

Keimusho is honestly such a staple of the site at this point. I look forward to where his travels take him next!

The patient ninja waits to strike, lurking in the shadows. I love how dignified Keimusho comes across, particularly when you compare him to the OTHER FF14 warriors of light who can best be described as well-meaning disasters. This isn’t Leah, but oh my gosh I would LOVE to see Keimusho and Yuffie meet. Such diametrically opposed ninjas having to get out of a situation together. I’d read the HECK out of that!

Can you believe that Keimusho is the OC that’s been around second longest on this site? Even before we knew what we were doing with FF14, you were charging ahead, writing out your plotlines and taking on whatever battles came your way. I’ve always really appreciated the way that you write fight scenes. They’re my weak point personally, but you seem to excel at them in a way that I can’t. I can always picture your narration perfectly, and it helps me build off of it to create something truly special. You are the king of “Yes, and” improvisation, and I never know where a thread with you is going to end up. It’s absolutely wonderful.

You’re one of my all-time favorite people to write with. I cannot express to you enough how much I love Alex. You somehow managed to create a character who is both likable and has fatal flaws, and that can be SO hard to pull off. I want to give you all the kudos in the world for that.

It's been like ages since we've gotten to write together and so I'm really looking forward to our current stuff~ I hope you'll be patient with me as I'm absorbing the lore and exploring the 15 world that was taken from my hero Tetsuya Nomura's hands XDXD I also want to thank you for helping me out with non-roleplay stuff over the years. Doubtless I'll trouble you for even more gaming related stuff going forward, teeheehee.

So much 14 lore. Holy cow the 14 lore. We wouldn’t have been able to manage the 14 wave without you and we really do appreciate that. And then there’s Alex who is a complete and utter ball of chaos, and we love to see it.

It’s rare to find a writer who not only allows their protagonist characters to be deeply flawed, but that REVELS in those flaws. In the chaos of it. In the sheer unmitigated joy of watching them fall on their face in new and interesting ways while proclaiming themselves to be the good guy. I was an early supporter of Alex, I must say, and I feel vindicated by his rise in popularity. You have given me so much to work with as a writer, and as a person, you’ve helped me so much on staff. I remember back when our site was considered hostile towards FF14. We’ve still got some way to go to make it as friendly as possible given that I know nothing of the game, but I know that you’ve always got my back. I trust you, and I appreciate you more than I can say. Keep on keeping on, and I’m sure we’ll continue to find our way.

You never fail to make me laugh or have a good time. You have such awesome ideas and such great storytelling skills. I can't wait to have a thread with Alex because I already know its going to be hysterical and so much fun.
