On the closing of [digital_dive]. Now [homeless]

[changelingdude]

Hey dude,

It's been a long ride huh? Not our first and I'm betting, not outlast together.

It's kinda funny you know? I'm starting to get used to cancellations. But after the show, the comic book and now your game, I can honestly say it could be worse.

I know, totally comforting right? Stick with me I'm going somewhere with this.

We started out rough. You'd never played on a journal based game, heck the last thing you'd been RPing on was pro boards. Remember that?

But slowly...surely we figured things out together. Made some friends I'll never forget. Had some life changing moments. Too many to name because yeah...long post. TLDR dude.

But that world, those muns and their characters, they were family. And because of them you'll never look at some of us the same way again.

They say you never forget your first...I'm pretty sure when they say that they're talking about something other then Roleplaying games but Dive was alot of firsts for us both.

I'm still here, and there are still more adventures to be had dude. So do what I do the many, many, many times I get knocked down.

Take a breath.
Let it out.
Crack a joke.
And get back in the game.

I'll be waiting for ya!

...or, y'know, skip the joke part.

That's cool too.

[changelingdude]

And deprive the world of my quippy one liner genius? I'd sooner eat pot roast.

[bewareofwaffles]

I could arrange that, if you insist.

"Eventually, you might learn to take things seriously. But that's liable to happen sometime between pigs flying and hell freezing over. Maybe there's a version of you that wouldn't mind taking over Dayton Industries."

After seeing this post, I had to bring her out once more.

My mun knows it's been a while since he talked to yours, and he says he knows what your mun is feeling. He's always around AIM if your mun wants to talk.

Nostalga bomb <3

[changelingdude]

Oh wow...DUDE! Blast from the past!

[Glomp hug]

Thanks for the support. Nothing like a familiar face to perk things up.

[changelingdude]

Sheesh, nice to see you too Steve.

I'll have you know that in the game that just closed I was running an entire hotel! Me! Head honcho. Big cheese. I mean...OK so maybe business wasn't booming. But the important thing was I was helping people right?

[changelingdude]

That's the plan at least.

Long time no see blondie. How've ya been?

[changelingdude]

You're a madman Cyborg! A madman! I won't take part in your pork based madness!

[bewareofwaffles]

Chill, man. And for the record, pot roast is beef. Totally different animal.

[changelingdude]

It's all vaguely cannibalism for me dude.

[bewareofwaffles]

It's all delicious for me.

[changelingdude]

Other then stuffing your face with animals, THAT I HAVE BEEN, what have you been up to dude? It's been like...forever for me.

[bewareofwaffles]

S'all good, BB.

Mun takes me out for a spin ever now and again. Mainly when she catches sight of the old team, but sometimes when a new face pops up.

[changelingdude]

I hear that dude, I usually pop out when I see someone hanging around too, or those new Young Justice kids. Have you been watching that man? Or the New Teen Titans cartoons? We're coming back in a big way!

[bewareofwaffles]

Sure have. Share a headspace with a couple of 'em, even. You'd probably like that Zee chick--I hear she resists the sweet, sweet call of meat too. You two could bond over eating plants or something.

Man, you don't even know. We're just too good to keep away for long.

[changelingdude]

Oh sweet! Maybe I'll talk my mun into sending me somewhere she is heh~

But have you seen the comics and stuff? I mean it's all great for you. You're in the New Lego Batman game. You're gonna be in that one game Injustice. You're like a full member of the league now.

And me? Well I get turned Red and I'm on the run.

[bewareofwaffles]

Take your pick; she's in, like, two different games right now.

Man everybody turning red in this new series. And I might be in all these new stories and games, but half of 'em don't make sense, anyways.

"Still chief cook, bottle-washer, comm guy, gardener, and babysitter for Titans West. I may have to take a hiatus from it, though. We had Blackest Night on my universe and Trigon tried to attack my home. Things...went badly. My mun's planning for me to have a walkabout so that I get my head on straight."

"I'll come back to the Titans, and to your alternate. Not about to leave my Frog Prince out in the cold."

[it_aint_tinfoil]

A raised eyebrow and a smile. "That's impressive."

"All right, I admit that maybe I haven't been the father I ought to have been. Maybe that's why the mun's allowing me to have a second chance with everyone."

[changelingdude]

How bad we talking here? Mad Mod levels of nonsense or full blown Larry?

[changelingdude]

Aw shucks you're makin' me blush, and I'm not even the same guy.

As for me, I think I'll be taking a little vacation. Play some video games, catch up on my comic books. Then I'm gonna wrestle mun into letting me find some fellow superdudes to hang out with around here.

[changelingdude]

I am a huge fan of second chances.

But don't sell yourself short...I mean, I still think of you as my dad.

[bewareofwaffles]

Uh...kinda a little of both, I guess?
