Ferzu? and Mushy Thoughts by Lloxie

Anyone ever tried Ferzu or know much about it? I have a vague maybe-fake memory of hearing  something negative about it, but nothing specific. Granted, I'm wary of dating apps in general, but all of the sudden I find myself pondering things...


For the most part, I've been alright with being single for a long time now. But ever now and then I get a strong craving for that close, intimate relationship with someone. (And by "intimate" I'm not specifically just talking about sex here, just FYI) I just want to be held and have someone special I feel like I can be vulnerable around, you know? Someone I can let my guard down with and be affectionate and mushy with. .///.


That said, don't mistake this for a "Bah, Valentines Day sucks" kind of thing. I actually don't mind this holiday and if anything, even if I do get jealous, I love all the cute, sweet romantic art and such I see around this time of year. Need to write some mushy short stories, actually...


On that note though, yeah, looks like Lykou and Kuna's big moment won't be happening this month after all. <w>;;; I can't believe we're halfway through it already! God, time moves so quickly anymore. Someone tell the calendar to slow the fuck down! That said, I think I have still decided to start Wound Awakens next. We've all waited long enough for these two dorks to smooch, so it's time to start building towards that moment. =w=

    I tried ferzu before but ehh, it's not for me. most people I met there seem kinda..dangerous? if not then outright rude. There was someone who somehow found my telegram and I never even gave them it or anything, they just popped up and found me, it was creepy. The person admitted they were pro life, queerphobic, and seemed very problematic so I blocked them. There was also some very rude people there, like I got distracted afk from a chat once then I came back to them getting mad and accusing me for this and that when I was just busy, so I cut off contact with the butthurt snowflake. and there was someone who did seem alright but they were actually a hacker and did some creepy things to other people so I'm a bit iffy about that person. I became inactive on ferzu and it announced that they were gonna delete my account because I was "too inactive" so I let it happen cos I was like oh well. :v

    I've never really had a valentine before or even been in a relationship, but it does sound nice to try out someday <:3 I just treat valentines day as a friendship day to spend quality time with all my pals :3

    • Link

      Oof, that's what I was afraid of >.<; Guess I should definitely steer clear then. Thanks a bunch for the response!

      I've had two serious relationships in the past (3 if you count the first one but that was kind of a puppylove thing xp) but they were all ages and ages ago, heh. But hey, at least V-day means lots of cute art and stories and stuff to enjoy. :3

      • Link

        no prob, glad I was able to help! :>
        ooh ^-^ I always wondered what relationships were like and what they feel like since I never really been in one before, I'm very picky and had to reject a ton of people who only really liked me for my cute looks. I'd rather be with someone who likes me for who I am instead.. ^-^;
        yeah and valentines day is nice to spend with all your pals and make new ones too :D

        • Link

          Hey, it's good to have standards! Honestly, my own are probably a significant obstacle for my own love life as well, once you set other things aside. ^^;; S'why I was curious about one of those apps or something because they supposedly have ways of helping you find people you're compatible with, hehe. Even making new friends seems challenging sometimes anymore :s

          • Link

            yeah boundaries are healthy and important :3 but I'm sure there might be other furry dating apps that might be better tho! hopefully ones that are safer and..less toxic <:3 the best thing to do is check the reviews so I think it was really good you asked the community about their thoughts on ferzu :o I even heard of people finding love on regular sites in general, I remember someone once found their lover on deviantart and are probably married now I think :o they're lucky because I had to leave deviantart due to bullying, harassment, abuse, theft, hacking, and smear campaigns D: I think I would need a bodyguard if I was ever to return there.. :< that's why I migrated here to escape from it all, but I'm so glad weasyl's nice at least <:3 I like it here, I made alot of friends here :> but I see what you mean about making friends, being a shy person 'n' all can make it really hard to go out there and make the first move :c

            • Link

              Alas, I don't think there are that many apps of that sort out there (specifically for furries) in general. ^^;;

              Sorry to hear about your dA experience! That's awful. >: Glad I haven't used that site in a very long time, heh...

              It's just a shame the overwhelming majority of folks seem to congregate on sites I refuse to use and ignore ones like this. >< At least Cohost and Itaku have become a bit more popular in more recent months, hehe. Sadly, much as I do like Weasyl, I don't get much traction here :s

              • Link

                it's alright it's not our fault <:3 at least I'm safe here on weasyl for now.. ÚwÙ
                sorry for the silly question ^-^; what does traction mean :o is it to do with like popularity? :o don't worry about wanting to be noticed tho, alot of artists would like that, even me <:3 though I have found a very useful way that helped me gain a little more notice on weasyl if you're interested ^w^ though even as an author/writer myself, I think even my stories don't get as noticed as my drawings do.. ^-^; but it's okay, everyone starts somewhere right? :3
                I did notice you were very fond of writing, do you share to story posting sites like wattpad? ^-^ sometimes people tend to notice illustrations more than literature so an art site that focuses only on writing might also help you branch out and help your stories to be more noticed :3 I also noticed you don't have enough followers on here :< but that's why maybe I could help share a tip or two that might help :3 really sorry if any of this came off rude or direct, I promise I wasn't intending to be QwQ just wanted to try and be helpful you see <:3 /nbr /nh /fr /js

                • Link

                  Well that's good. :3

                  And yeah, by traction in this case I mean my stories don't get much attention here heh. Not entirely surprising since the site overall isn't as active as many others, plus, like you said, written works don't get as much attention as other media in general either. But eh, I at least like the way Weasyl displays things so I'll keep posting here. I am curious about what your method is though!

                  Can't really use Wattpad for various reasons. I post my works here, SoFurry, AO3, InkBunny, and on FurryNetwork. I also started putting them up on Side7 and Artconomy, but they've gotten virtually no views there so I only have like the first six chapters of MHO up on those sites so far. xp I definitely get the most attention on AO3 and SoFurry. AO3 is fiction-only and SoFurry started as a furry fiction archive, and didn't add image support until later. So yeah, peeps are more likely to look at written works there. x3

                  None of this comes across as rude at all, no worries! You've actually been very sweet and I thank you for the comments ^w^ And again, I'd be more than happy to hear whatever advice you might have.
                  ....also unfortunately I have no idea what any of those / things are at the end. xD I assume tone indicators but the only one I've ever encountered was /s.

                  • Link

                    ohh I see, yeah I really like this site so I been interacting with the community alot :3 I found out that weasyl is one of those places that if you want interactions then the best thing to do is to interact with others, instead of waiting for others to interact with you.. ^-^; I notice alot of people get mad and leave because they upload things and expect everyone to come running to them, but I don't think the weasyl community works that way :< I find what helped me gain a little notice was to interact with the community, supporting, complimenting, and helping people on journals, welcome new users to weasyl, commenting on art when faving, and leaving kind thank yous and compliments on people's shouts :3 I managed to make some friends by sharing similar interests and having good interactions with them and I also came across those who are fond of my works in general, it's nice ^w^

                    you know what might help you as a writer tho :o sometimes making book covers and illustrations of your favourite scenes could help, that way the people who are more focused on illustrations might like your drawings so much that they might notice your story too! :D I actually sketched out a cover for one of my books for the first time ^w^ it kinda looks like an epic movie poster, heh X3 I do plan on finishing the cover tho! maybe i'll get it ready for halloween this year ^w^ https://www.weasyl.com/~hazel3/submissions/2321115/the-waffle-stars-the-magic-school-and-the-haunted-castle-story

                    yea I'm sure there's other literature focused art sites ÚwÙ my friend keirajo likes to use archive of our own I think it's called, though I found the layout isn't really for me so that's why I used wattpad, one of my close friends also uses it too so we got to follow each other :D I didn't know that literature was popular in sofurry tho :o that's really interesting, I use to be very active on there :3

                    thank you too! :D ohh, those are tone indicators, alotta people use em to help be more easily understood, I tend to use em alot cos I'm a very misunderstood person you see <:3 sometimes I find that people can get the wrong idea about me when I forget to use them too :< I'll need to try and remember to use em more :o the /s one you came across means "sarcasm" btw :3 the ones i added which are /nbr /nh /fr /js means "not being rude", "not hostile", "friendly", "just saying", all in that order, so it meant that I'm being nice and mean no harm so no worries! I actually linked a big list of tone indicators and their meanings on my profile so I hope it helps in the future :3

                    • Link

                      I have tried that now and then, but I guess either the things I commented on were from artists that don't check the site much or just don't feel chatty. :s I suppose I'm overdue to give it another shot though. Hopefully people are better about tagging things now... >>'

                      And yeah, I need to make some new cover images hehe. I made one for MHO for that reason last summer, but I really need to make a better one. Heck, I'd like to at least give each episode its own cover art eventually. Really need to brush up on my art skills in general :x Got a few other things I wanna draw as well... And that's a very impressive looking cover you got in the works there! :D

                      And yeah, Archive of Our Own is the AO3 site I mentioned. Great for writers, since they don't have to compete with visual media. It and SoFurry are where my stories get the most views and comments so far. I also get lots of interaction on Cohost, though my stories are generally too long to post there. Still, I recommend checking it out if you haven't yet. Very nice community there in general. ^w^ (I'm considering at least cross-posting some of my shorter ones there, hehe.)

                      Ahh okay. Yeah I've seen /s around for years so I knew about it, but the others are completely alien to me. x3 As a general rule I try to assume people mean well unless they're being overtly hostile or very obviously trolling. (And having been around on the net for a very long time, I'd like to think I've got a pretty good knack for spotting the latter... xp) So no worries!

                      Sorry for the delay btw. Kinda out of town at the moment, and only checking on things briefly now and then in the evenings mostly. ^^;

                      • Link

                        yeah some of the community aren't as talkative as others in the community, and some are only active through postybirb.. ^-^; but you do come across some peeps here and there that do like a good convo! it just takes a lil searching :3

                        I think it'll be nice to see more of your illustrations too ^-^ we don't get to see them enough but I think your drawings are pretty good :3 I bet you'll make some amazing book covers too! also thank you X3

                        ooh I see! I registered on cohost but sadly postybirb doesn't support it yet :< I'm hoping one day postybirb will eventually support it because it could help me be a little more active on there. I'm on lots of places you see.. ^w^; would be cool if it also eventually support sites that allow you to upload characters and literature cos there is quite a few sites that let you do that. weasyl is one of em! :3

                        that's really cool, I think I been around on the internet for almost 2 decades, or more than a decade and a half :o I didn't create accounts until much later tho, but i did enjoy alot of flash games when I was little X3 that and mspaint too! and that's alright :3

                        • Link

                          Well I'm definitely open to talkin' to folks! Just a matter of finding ones with common interests who are active here, I guess x3

                          And daww, thank you! ^//^ I do need to dust off my tablet sometime. Maybe if life settles down a little, I might do a bit of that later this next week, hehe.

                          Yeahhhh a bunch of us have been begging the Cohost devs to implement an API so PB will work with it for a while now. It's planned, but haven't heard anything new about it in a while. >< I do love the site and the community though! And yeah, I'm on a bunch of sites as well. x3 I know several that let you upload characters as well as other things. Like Artconomy is a nice upcoming one, for example. ^^ SoFurry and InkBunny also let you upload characters as well. I know there are others, but I forget which ones and unfortunately I'm not at home right now so I can't check :s

                          Oh nice! I've been on the 'net since near the turn of the century myself. x3 Though I mostly lurked for the first year or two. First place I ever socialized at all was Furcadia, hehe. ^^

                          • Link

                            me too, I love a good convo ^w^ what's your favourite things to talk about? my special interest is making and developing ocs and their universes, so that's definitely my favourite thing to talk about big time X3 do you like discussing original characters too? I like hearing what friends and acquaintances come up with too :D

                            hey no problem ^w^ and that's alright, take your time! I hope my encouragement helped motivate you in some way :3

                            also cool I'm on artconomy too, I'm still pretty new there so I'm still getting use to the layout, but I definitely use postybirb on there ^w^ I'm still figuring out how people get notice on that and furtastic though I don't really come to places for that reason only.. ^-^; I like to join many sites cos I think it's good to branch out and meet new peeps and try new things, though I do think it's pretty awesome how sometimes you're able to find people who enjoy what you do as much as you do :3 for now I stick to using postybirb on places I'm not quite use to but when I get the hang of sites I'm new to I'll maybe see about being alot more active ^w^ I uhh..I don't really use inkbunny anymore :< the pedophiles on there made me really uncomfortable and I don't like all the disturbing content on there D: I only really go there just to see my friend but that's about it really, I don't like any of that loli/shota/cub/pedophillia stuff.. >.<;

                            also that's really cool! do you remember the year you first used the internet? ^-^ I think for me it was 2005, I was a smol child back then :3 also I remember furcadia :o I didn't use it very much but when I did, I never really heard of the furry fandom and didn't know what a furry was for that reason, it wasn't until 2017 that I discovered the furry fandom and realised I was a furry all this time, but I was happy to come across it because I came across so many cool furry sites and gained an interest in fursuit making aswell :D and I'm also really glad I discovered what ocs were too! before I even knew what an original character was, mii characters in nintendo games were my special interest, I use to love making all kinds of made up characters X3 tomodachi life, miitopia, and streetpass mii plaza is what really made them lovable :D

                            I discovered what ocs were in very late 2016 and started having some of my own in 2017. I think 2017 was a big year for me cos that was when I discovered my love for character making and being a furry :D alot of the characters of mine that you see today like Cody, Max, Sakura, Zack, Neon, Pipsqueak, Leroy, Kiki, Cotton, Leelee, etc were all made in the year 2017 ^w^ I'm so glad I came across these because they helped me through tough times, like the next year 2018 was really rough for me, I think I may of been depressed at some point, but my characters were still there for me and drawing them brought me comfort <:3 they're still with me today!

                            • Link

                              Well it varies. My social battery fluctuates a lot, so to speak. xD Lately I've been enjoying chatting in art streams people host, about all sorts of random stuff. I do enjoy blathering about my characters and stuff as well, though for that I usually just post things on Cohost occasionally hehe. Otherwise, it's just a matter of finding a subject that interests me in the moment. S'why I lurk around a bunch of Discord servers, and also have one myself hehe.

                              I definitely aprpeciate the encouragement, believe me. ^w^

                              Yeah Artconomy definitely has promise. I'm in the Artconomy Discord server and they're fairly active. If you like Discord, definitely pop in there. x3 Furtastic, on the other hand, is starting to feel half abandoned. I'm also in that site's Discord and it's dead most of the time. x-x But yeah I thoroughly agree with branching out! I'm always trying to get more people to do so as well. (As frustratingly hard as that can be... ><;) As for IB, fair enough. I mainly use it because I've been on there because it's fairly active and I've been there the longest out of the places I'm active. And luckily it has a working blacklist/filter feature, which is like the #1 thing a site needs for me to even consider using it, heh. Plus I like the format- for art, anyway. For written works, it definitely leaves a lot to be desired. >.<;

                              Teeeechnically I first used the internet probably sometime in the late 90s? but it was very sporadic back then, and not regular usage until around 2001. Aaaand yeah that's around the time I first started encountering furry stuff and became hopelessly hooked shortly thereafter. The furry fandom has thus been a big part of my life and my identity ever since. x3 I just regret mostly being a "consumer" for most of that time and not as much of a creator as I wish I'd been, but I'm trying to do better about that now at least. I had a boom of writing and such back in the late 00s but sadly lost a lot of progress on some things due to an HDD failure and the fact I was always bad about not finishing things, so most of it wasn't uploaded anywhere >< But I bounced back a bit with the pone craze, then again this past year or two with my own works. ^^

                              I can definitely relate on the depression angle. I've battled nasty mental health issues all my life, and furry stuff as a whole helped me hold it together through some of the worst of it. Some of the characters and stories I've come up with are basically comfort stuff. So yeah, I definitely feel ya there! I'm just glad I finally forced myself to start doing something with them all. For so long they've basically just bounced around in my head, hehe. Love your art style, by the way. Very cute :D I especially love your main sona/oc, Hazel. Of course, I may be a bit biased towards foxes anyway. >w< But yeah, really cute design!

                              • Link

                                ooh I see! I'm an ambivert which means I tend to switch from introvert to extrovert and vice versa depending on the situation :3 ambiverts are a bit like foxes, they can adapt to many things sometimes X3 also that's cool, recently I've made some big improvements to my livestreams ^w^ I do art on there! :D also I think it's really good that you are greatful for some things because people don't really practice gratitude alot and I think they should because you get people who like to do kind deeds and if they see that you're happy and thankful because of what they did then it makes them happy too <:3 I know for sure I like to practice gratitude alot, maybe I'm a bit like a shaymin XD

                                but yeahh it seems gratitude is most commonly used on an american holiday called thanksgiving, but the thing is, gratitude shouldn't need to be saved for just one holiday, I think it should be practiced all year around because it's nice to be greatful for what you have and the people you are with, I feel everyone should be more greatful for things like that cos I seen alot of youtubers who nag viewers for their subs when they already got more than enough like they don't need more. and I'm thinking..why not just appreciate what you have right now? you're already popular, isn't that enough? I mean there are lots of small artists and creators out there who would love to be popular too.. ^-^; /nay

                                ahh I see, I hope furtastic brightens up soon <:3 I've been wanting to branch out alot so my friends helped me gain the confidence and courage to return to deviantart, they were very sweet, they offered to protect me from bullies so 2018 doesn't repeat itself.. ÚwÙ they're really kind and I'm really thankful for them, us friends have got to stick together because a true friend never betrays


                                ahh, thank goodness for filters.. on weasyl I blocked out disgusting gore and fnaf, I'm sick and tired of fnaf, roblox, amongus, minecraft etc being shoved down my throat so it's good I blacklisted those tags, same with the messed up disturbing content like gore and poop, I mean no offense to those who like these things but it's just not for me y'know? though I totally understand if there are media and fetishes that you don't like either, it's like eaugh.. >.<

                                I mean if people like them that's fine, but I'd rather people don't shove things down my throat y'know? :< sorry if I came off direct, I didn't mean to though hopefully you can understand right? I guess everyone has their pet peeves.. ^-^; I don't mind popular media but if I haven't seen it yet and people keep nagging me about it and forcing me to see it all the time, then I lose interest. Pokemon and mlp I already like because I've enjoyed them since childhood. I actually feel like one of the only people who likes g5 better than g4 fim ngl 0-o

                                woahh you're even more ancient than I am! :o how old's you? I'm 24 but dw I never judge people by their age because I don't like ageism and I feel people shouldn't need to be bullied or discriminated on for their age, like it's just a number people, calm down lol /nay but in all honesty, I'd rather be age regressing because being an adult suuucks.. DX you get those stupid normies who expect you to act your age then criticise you for enjoying being a kid like leave me alone haters, jeez. >.< /nay

                                I meeeaaan I guess being an adult isn't always bad, I mean we got our freedom and our own house plus no more school yaay X3 oh and also being allowed energy drinks, content of higher ratings and whatnot. but other than that, I still think being a kid is better because adulting is just the worst thing ever and I wish it wasn't such a requirement DX


                                sorry to hear about your health problems :< I actually want to see about a diagnosis because I don't know if I have ptsd or not, I'm not self diagnosing tho. even my helper/carer has a feeling I may have something like that due to the fact I've always been bullied and abused. I came to check out your carrd and noticed you have trust issues too, hh same here I've been betrayed way too much, like it happens so often I've completely lost count of it all, it's like why can't people just be honest and why can't people just be.. y'know, real and genuine? cos I'm tired of all the fakeys and backstabbers, I just want some real friends.. though I'm glad the friends I have now seem real and genuine (unlike the last lot), I appreciate them lots 💛

                                but you can never have too many friends so I'm always open for making new friends, just as long as they're willing to give me a chance, work things out, and not backstab and betray me like the rest of the losers did. not saying my friends are losers tho dw! I'm saying that the traitors are because it's not me who lost them, it's them who lost me. and I don't take betrayal so lightly so there's a high chance that I'm not letting them back into my life once the damage has been done. U.U

                                I totally agree with you that your characters can be a great source of comfort :3 and you can make your ocs great friends with your sona too if you wanted, because your sona is you as a character so if your ocs are friends with your sona then it means they like their creator which is you ^w^ so sometimes it's nice drawing (or writing!) art of you and your characters hanging out together or making you feel better after a rough day cos it can be quite comforting :3


                                also thank you! ^-^ I have alot of fox characters XD I probably have more foxes than dogs now lol, but there is a few foxdog hybrids like Izzy and Leroy :3 also really sorry if this comment was a bit direct and a little more on the ranty side, sometimes I may accidently vent or rant and not realise it until the end oops.. ^-^; uuhh..If I came off mean and direct then don't worry, it wasn't towards you or any of my friends so you're fine honestly! <=D

                                and uh, incase you didn't know, I often use the /nay tone indicator alot, it means "not at you". I often use this if i'm a bit complainy, but don't want people to mistaken that as being aimed towards them or anything.. ^-^; and in group chats like discord i use /ndaah which means "not directed at anyone here" incase anyone gets the wrong idea.. ^w^; also sorry this message was long QwQ I need to try and type less but i'm very talkative so it's hard goifuogufogdoug

                                  Most of my life I've been an introvert, but online at least, under the right circumstances, I can certainly get rambly. x3 I just have to be careful not to overshare in some rare situations though lol. ^^;; And what platform do you stream on? It's funny, I never used to be interested in streams, but this past year I pulled a total 180 on that when I found how nice it can be, at least in smaller channels. x3

                                  I try to be grateful for what I have, though admittedly I struggle sometimes. Mainly because of my borked mental health overall, I think. Makes it hard to look at the bright side at times. x-o;

                                  I'm glad you've got such good friends! I have no interest in dA myself, but I've joined a bunch of different sites over the past year, hehe. Including one you mentioned in the PB server, Side7! Though it's kind of dead right now sadly ^^; But I like finding more sites to check out! (As long as they meet certain requirements of mine :s)

                                  Yeahhhh I always fill my blacklist up. I like how some sites (Mastodon and Cohost come to mind) have sort of a multi-tiered filter feature though. Where you can set some things to get filtered completely so you never see any trace of them, and other things to just be spoilered but you can unspoiler them if the other tags make it look interesting enough to be worth the risk. Because not all squicks are equal in my book, heh. I've got a lot of things I'd rather filter even if it won't bother me too much if I see them, but then there's a few whose existence I'd rather delete from my memory if I could.

                                  I was into MLP:FiM early on but lost interest in the show by the end of season 3. Still like the pone concept and designs though, and enjoy fanart. ^^ As for Pokemon... I'm in a weird position with that because I love the designs and enjoy plenty of fanart, but can't get into the games or official media much. xD (Though one day maybe I'll give the Mystery Dungeon series a try, I might enjoy that a little more...)

                                  Ehhhhehehehe.... 37 ^^;;; I know I know, I'm a greymuzzle. >.<;; I appreciate the positive attitude though! A lot of times I think I was born about ten years too early or something lol. Past decade has been such a blur, too... And heck the haters! I'm gonna enjoy cute animal characters and animation and other "kid" stuff and that's all there is to it! :p But yeah, sometimes I really miss being a kid too. Simpler times, y'know?

                                  And damn, I'm so sorry you've had to put up with so much bullying and abuse! The world can be a cruel place sometimes. >.< I wish you well and hope you continue to feel better each day! I guess I'm lucky I haven't had as much of that to worry about as many have, other than some family drama. Alas, my brain is a malfunctioning mess anyway and I also just get paranoid because of the way I see people treat each other out in the world. >< I'm glad you have better friends now! Making friends can be quite a challenge, especially as an adult, heh.

                                  I hadn't considered actually writing anything with my 'sona, heh. I don't know that it'd work super well, since they're like an idealized version of myself sometimes, and other times just a sort of toony avatar insert for myself in online spaces. That said, I definitely put a bit of myself into a lot of other characters as well. And even if there are differences, they can definitely help me work through some of my own mental static. Like a couple short stories I did recently were partly for that very reason, heh.

                                  Gotta love foxes! X3 I've always been a big fox fan. Fennecs especially. Big ol' ears! But I love canids in general, too. And no worries! I wouldn't even consider it overly ranty or mean or anything in any way. I just look at it as a long, thoughtful convo, hehe. ^w^

                                  I'll try to keep that in mind! Though I kinda suck with acronyms and things like that, so I can't promise I'll remember it a week from now. xD But in any case, my default is to try not to take things personally unless someone's very obviously and overtly trying to be hostile anyway.

                                  And no worries at all, you're good! I'm appreciating the long chat. ^_^ Definitely the most I've interacted with anyone on this site so far, and I mean that in a positive way. XD Only downside is that the scrolling up and down to read, comment, read, comment is getting annoying, but that's more an issue with the site itself and how it's laid out >w< But don't take that the wrong way! By all means feel free to continue if you like! Or feel free to poke me on other platforms we have in common as well x3

                                    that's okay, I ramble all the time without realising ^w^; as for oversharing, I don't see it as such a "bad thing" I mean I accidently do it all the time and I may accidently go onto topics that may offend others, which unfortunately a butthurt server kept get getting mad at me for those natural traits of mine and kept trying to strike me over something I have zero control over. but eh, that server is rubbish. the whole site and server is built only to please butthurt snowflakes, it's a waste of time lol. I ain't active because it's overly strict, besides it's not my fault I overshare, vent/rant without realising, ramble, go offtopic, and accidently go onto sensitive topics. in the end, it's their own fault for making a fuss over something so accidential and easily fixable. I'm neurodivergent I don't know any better, and there's just some things I find very difficult. like I could be very annoying to someone and not even realise it, I tend to be annoying without meaning to sometimes so that's why it's important that people, especially friends, tell me if there's anything wrong so we can fix things. if people don't tell me, then I wont know. I will continue being annoying without even realising that I'm annoying anyone because people are very fake, toxic, and passive aggressive. /nay

                                    I stream on twitch ^w^ infact I'm streaming right now! =D https://www.twitch.tv/hazelthevixen
                                    yeah i never missed the deviantart community one single bit, I only missed the site and the features it had, but I don't miss the community because they're toxic, abusive, and antisocial meaning they're bullies. i uh..became a bit inactive on side7, I don't like how the site messes up my ability to comment sometimes :< it's also too slow for me, I would use it more if it had postybirb tho!

                                    yeaaa I didn't like how they changed Fluttershy's personality through mid season of friendship is magic :< I liked the original her because I found her to be very relatable, she's soft, timid, shy, fearful, submissive, sweet, gentle, quiet, and mutters alot, just like me, I'm like that alot. but I didn't like how they changed her through mid season into being mean, moody, cold, and aggressive. she went from shy and sweet to "NOW WAIT JUST A FLIPPIN' DARN MINUTE" like holy smokes what on earth happened.. 0-o through mid seasons she didn't suit her name and design anymore because she went from sweet to sour, but I'm glad she went back to being timid again in the late seasons and even g5 itself. however, when she did go back to her "old" self, it's almost like they forgot what her old self was like, so they sorta made her into your typical average (maybe even stereotypical) scaredy character, which i'm glad they brought back the timidness 'n' all but she still feels..i dunno, still kinda out of character like before? i mean at least she was better than before but her original personality I liked best, especially the scene where she first met Twilight and was very muttery and squeaky and hiding her face with her hair lol, oddly I too hide my face with my hair if I'm shy, nervous, and/or hiding emotions, I have very long hair in the offline world <X3 I also liked the scene how Rainbow Dash encouraged her to be loud and excitable but when Fluttershy took a deep breath, she just let out a soft quiet "yaaaaay......... X3" lol oddly I feel that XD I also liked how she suddenly went into full on hyper cheerleading mode when she actually succeeded on being loud XDD

                                    Pokemon scarlet and violet games are really fun ^-^ I think they're better than the other version games so far :3 and yis, I definitely recommend mystery dungeon X3 If you prefer being the pokemon instead of being a trainer then i highly recommend it :D super mystery dungeon and explorers of sky are my favourites X3 I've still to play more of the remake rescue team dx, but it looks good so far! I even hear there has been very rare animes of the mystery dungeon series, so if you liked the game then maybe you might be able to find the animes somewhere :o you get different ones based on the different games :3

                                    heyy greymuzzles aren't really all that bad so dw! ^-^ I have a few middle aged pals on the internet too so it's cool honestly! some are even in their 40's but please don't feel so bad on being old <:3 or alot older than me anyways ^w^; but being old just means you're wise and full of wisdom, you've been around alot longer than most people have so you know what you're doing more and you probably have some helpful life lessons and wisdom to share with us young'uns and whippersnappers as the very elderly like to call us XD but don't worry you're not elderly <X3 but even a young'un like me has some advice to share, so alot of older people see birthdays as a sad thing because they are one year closer to their death, but birthdays are suppose to be happy <:3 so the way i see it, when I get old, I still wanna see birthdays as making it through another year, still alive and well, and because you survive another year on your birthday, I think that's worth celebrating aswell that you're still going strong and you're still here today ^-^ so I hope my bit of youngster advice helps you enjoy birthdays a little more, heh ^w^ also if any of this came off rude or offensive, I didn't mean to i promise <=D I'm sorry if i did come off that way or did come off blunt and direct, i wasn't tryna be dw! I'm still being nice ofcourse, I like being nice, though one of the traits that neurodivergent people tend to have is what's known as "brutal honesty" so even when i am being friendly sometimes i might accidently offend someone by mistake, and if this is the case, I do apologise, I hope I didn't make you feel bad about yourself or anything, I was tryna do the opposite, like make you feel good instead <:3 i'm 24 but i look and sound 15 and I'm a child at heart, i'm a kidfur you see. being a kid and age regression in general brings me alotta comfort for me ÚwÙ

                                    I totally agree tho, you're never too early and never too late :3 yeah screw the haters and screw the normies, RRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! XDDD I think it's awesome that people our age including me and you still enjoy cute things, animation, sweet food and drinks, and fun stuff like bubbles, toys, plushies, funfairs, theme parks, toy shops, play areas, fun travel in general, cartoons/anime, comics/mangas, imaginary friends, play pretend/make believe, blankie forts and play tents. i hope littlespace and age regression gains more acceptance along with the furry community in general, they really do help us alot and it really does bring alot of comfort to know that people like the same things as we do ^-^ i hope that when we're all old and grey, we'll still love having fun and being young at heart :3 i'm a kidfur which is a type of furry little so i'm searching for a littlespace family online and offline, cos my first "family" is abusive and never loved and cared for me like a real family should. family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten, and in my first "family" it felt like they were a family of ducks and i'm the ugly duckling who doesn't belong there :< i relate to the ugly duckling not because i'm ugly (i'm not dw) but because people bully and hate on me for being so different and i always felt like the odd one out and just wanna find a place where i can belong and be loved y'know? <:3 also it's alright it's not our fault, it's the bullies and abusers :< and I totally agree on how hard it is to make friends as an adult now, I'm way too shy to the point I can't make the first move QwQ i find it haard..

                                    that's alright, I never roleplay with my sona either because my sonas are me like you said, sonas are basically self insert characters. I might find it hard to know how i'll react on situations i haven't been in before so I kinda understand where you're coming from :o I'm making a comic and animated series and my sona is in it, but even I have got to think about what I would do on situations sometimes.. ^-^; ocs are easier to roleplay with, cos you made up a personality for them, it's easy to make up how they would react on situations they haven't been in too, because you just make up more stuff about your character and it adds development to them :D

                                    foxes and dogs are my favourite animals :D and yis X3 fennecs are awesome, my fursona is part fennec and part kit fox, though kit foxes are their own species and not to be confused with fox pups. and Leroy is part fennec and part chihuahua aswell :D longhaired chihuahuas are my favourite dogs X3 and my oc Zerda is 100% fennec though she can become a foxgirl too, i just gotta design her foxgirl form :3 her name Zerda is based of the fennec fox's scientific name vulpes zerda, so that's what she's named after :3

                                    sure thing :D speaking of how hard it is to make friends as adults, I'm glad we manage to be acquainted, maybe we'll get to be friends too! ^-^ i'll be friends with anyone as long as they're loyal, honest, willing to give me a chance, willing to work things out incase of anything, and wont betray me especially over silly things that could easily be fixed. but i'm always open to make new friends :3 also it seems the comments are getting skinnier and skinner, shall we start a new comment chain or would you like my discord :o

                                      Yeahhh it's always better when people are just direct about things. I'm sort of similar myself. I suck with "hints" and cues and such. >< So I can sympathize with ya there.

                                      Good to know! Might pop in sometime, just depends on timing, heh. >< Timing is my eternal nemesis lol.

                                      Side7 seems like an interesting site, but I just don't seem to get much traction there. Probably doesn't help that I'm exclusively all about furry stuff and that site doesn't seem to have much of a furry community from what I can tell. ^^; Ah well. If PB ever gets compatible with it, I may still post more there. At least they have PDF support, hehe.

                                      Oof, yeah. Flutters was one of my favorite characters for the same reasons. >< Nothing wrong with having a gentle, sweet character be soft and nice, why do people feel the need to "harden" them? Eugh. >> And yeah! Hurricane Fluttershy was one of my favorite episodes! I love how she and Dash are so opposite in various ways, but still clearly care about each other. They easily could have written Dash being overly impatient and annoyed with her, but they didn't and I love that. <3 Absolutely one of the best episodes of the series :D

                                      Yeah besides the grind of the mainline games, I also feel a little weird about the whole "capture Pokemon and make them fight" thing. Not anything against those that enjoy it, mind you! Just feels a bit weird to me. ^^;; I much rather just focus on the Pokemon themselves, living their lives and doing other things.
                                      All that said, I'm on a gaming hiatus right now, and have been for the past year or so. Determined for it to stay that way until I finish MHO, too. ;; Gaming was too much of an addictive time sink for me, so I decided to take a break from it and prove to myself that I could actually finish a big project for once, hehe.

                                      Hehe, thanks... I just can't believe how fast time goes by any more. Past decade or so has been a total blur. Seems like just a year or two ago FiM was blowing up. @_@ snickers I don't know about wisdom, but maybe I'm a wiseass at times. XD badum-tssh But seriously, thank you for the kind words, I do appreciate it!

                                      And I get the regression thing. I was nervous to mention it, because I know some people can misconstrue things... but I do kind of vibe with that myself. I wouldn't call myself a little but I do have my moments, heh. ^//^; I actually have an OC (that admittedly I've neglected recently) kind of geared towards it, even. Maned fox that didn't get to have a normal childhood due to kinda crappy parents and is always self-conscious about his height, then saved a fairy and she gave him the ability to shrink/grow at will, which he uses to give himself "kid days" every now and then. xp But yeah I definitely get the kid fur thing! Every now and then, I'll grab a can of spaghettios, throw on some comfy PJs, cuddle a plushie or two, and just watch an animated movie or two and just kinda vibe, hehe. ^^

                                      Sorry to hear about your abusive family! >.< It's a crying shame how common that is. I swear, parenting should require some kind of license... =_=; Some people just shouldn't be allowed to raise kids. I'm glad you're overcoming things now though! And yeah, it's hard to find people you click with as you get older. But at least sometimes it's easier online, especially depending on where you are. I've lived my whole life in the deep south so needless to say I don't really fit in, but online at least I've found some nice communities. I actually just joined a couple new Discord servers recently that I really seem to click with so far. :D

                                      Ah, roleplay... I used to do that a lot back in the day (with non-fursona OCs of course), but it's been ages now. I did actually think of a short story I might write with my fursona just as a kind of self-therapy/comfort story for when I'm feeling particularly bad, but in general the most I might ever do is a quick cameo. Otherwise I prefer going the OC route because I can still insert aspects of myself without being completely tied to the characters hehe.

                                      Yesss, foxes and doggos are the best :D Though I also love bunnies, otters, yeens, deer, and various others as well. My fursona's species (phasefox) was partly inspired by fennecs though. (Yay big ears! X3) Somewhere I've got an illustrated list of all the different kinds of foxes out there that I saved so that I could eventually make a character for each of them, hehe. xp

                                      Likewise! This has been a delightful ongoing conversation. Thanks again for dropping in and chatting here! ^^ But yeah, sadly this isn't the best format for such big convos XD Feel free to add me on Discord and join my server if you want. (I tend to prefer open chats to DMs for simplicity sake ^^;) And/or feel free to poke me here or wherever else we have in common. ^w^

                                        yeah I'd rather if people were honest on what they think and how they feel instead of lying and hiding it D: especially if it's a friend who's doing it, cos friends are suppose to be honest with each other, tell each other how they truly feel, and let each other know if anything, that's what true friends do

                                        don't worry there will be repeats of the stream ^w^ only temporary tho <:3

                                        yeah I mean I don't mind if a timid character has a brave moment and becomes a hero for once, but they need to remain in character and I agree with you, they overdid the hostility and aggression on Fluttershy alot, they could of just stuck to one or two episodes where the timid pegasus is suddenly a brave hero for once and somehow manages to save everyone no problemo, or maybe an episode where she's finally had enough of being walked all over and decides they're not gonna be a doormat on one episode, but maybe in the end she realises she got too mean, apologises, and goes back to being timid and sweet. I feel that would fit Fluttershy a whole lot better cos then she'll get to stay in character. that and the mean look at Gilda because the gryphon was mean to her before and she didn't trust her before, I mean that was okay but they didn't have to overdo Fluttershy's meanness by turning a sweet character into a sour character I mean why tho D: I have a very timid, sissy character called Zack and I don't think I want to make the same mistake as mlp did with Fluttershy :c

                                        yeah I guess what pokemon is tryna do with their regular games is, first if you want a new friend they'll challenge you and play hard to catch, but once you catch them, they'll be like "oki you got me" and they'll be your new friend. so instead of them fighting against you, they now fight alongside you, so maybe pokemon is tryna do a work towards building your team of pals kind of thing

                                        but honestly i would say palworld is a thousand times worse than pokemon because palworld is one of those war violent shooting games. honestly i think a copy of pokemon would be better if the trainer wasn't shooting animals and chopping them up, i mean if pokemon has magic powers called moves, then it would only make sense if the trainer had their own moves too if they were to fight alongside pokemon-like creatures. i think that would be alot better and alot less violent than palworld's idea, cos and shooting games like that, halo, fallout, and call of duty causes aggression in alot of people. i was dragged into those nasty shooter games when i was very little, i didn't get aggressive like my bully brother did (they're the one who forced me to play or they'll abuse me) but i did get scared of all the horrible violence the games had, and these games were so dull and boring that i just wasn't interested in them. :/

                                        i'm not an aggressive person tho, that's why i scared and nervous more than anything when it came to playing these games. it's the same when people get hacked, most people i seen got furious when they were hacked, and well, few years ago when i experienced getting hacked for the first time, i never felt any frustrations whatsoever, but i was terrified more than anything because i knew my info was in danger, i'm in danger, and that haters could use that info to hunt me down. i was also scared about losing everything too.. >.<;

                                        so uh.. i'm not really an aggressive person, i just get angry naturally for things everyone else would normally get angry about, like if someone was being rude and hurtful to me then i become a sassy lassie out of pure defence. i'm more of a defender than an attacker, but i'm a different kind of peeved than the haters would be. see the haters would be more of an "I'LL GET YOU" peeved while I'm more of a "leave me alone" peeved. then the haters play victim and lie that "ohh she wuld go bout harassin evryone doyyyy" when the truth is..it's not me who goes up to people, it's them. you seen how harmful smear campaigns are, they make the victim they're targeting look "evil" and "bad" and make them look like the "attacker" and make them look like the "monster" and the "villain", just so the manipulator making the smear campaigns can play innocent wittle victim so they can lie about and villainise the real victim with their fictional little fairytales and fibs and hint others to go after the real victim. the idiots who fall for the lies and go after the real victim is what's known as a flying monkey or an enabler, they do the manipulator's dirty work so they can destroy the target's reputation and life in general, just for existing. i know for sure these losers cause way more harm than i would ever do, because all i would ever do is a roast and a sassy comeback out of self defense if someone was to attack me. /nay

                                          oki here's part 2

                                          it's good you take breaks from games tho! i too am not much of a gamer than i use to be, life is way too busy for gaming so i don't always have the time, besides i find art and other creative hobbies can be more enjoyable than gaming cos not only it's more productive and gives me more chance to do things with my special interests, but the results are more rewarding. you see, winning a game is rewarding 'n' all but all it really does is give you more stories, quests, items, and whatnot. and well, when you complete a game you get to see the ending, but i don't like completing games :< it makes me sad because then the game becomes boring.. :c my favourite kinds of games are rpgs, especially with character customisation :3 i love how miitopia has a whole team customisation and personalities to choose from, i wish more rpgs were like that, that's why i want to make a game inspired by miitopia but in my own oc's universe ^w^ i'll have to see about making it sometime :o

                                          but yeah art is more rewarding than gaming because you actually get to keep the finished piece once it's done, and you can do alot with it :3 and if you can't keep the piece, at least you get money for doing what you love, or you get fanart in return if it's a trade and not a commission X3 i love receiving fanworks because i really appreciate everyone's kindness and there's nothing more awesome than having art of your special interests of your own characters, it's super flattering when people like your creations as much as you do! X3 i appreciate all the fanworks i got, i rarely get fanimations tho, i don't think i've ever had anyone do an animation meme of my characters yet either :o same with comics and fanfics, i don't think i've had those before but it would be awesome, heh ^w^ that reminds me, someone did actually make something really cool, it was one of those physical items ^w^ i notice some people make plushies of their favourite characters from media that hasn't got any toys yet so i think that's pretty awesome :3 someone did make a physical clay sculpture of my fursona once, it was very flattering X3 i don't actually have it tho since i understand some people prefer to keep what they make and not have to worry about the complications of sending it to the creators of the character, and ofcourse, if you make a plushie or sculpture of your favourite media, no doubt they'll be proud of their hard work and want to show love to their favourite characters ^w^ it's good to keep fans happy and i appreciate their support either way :3

                                          yeah i remember when mlp fim first came out too! ^-^ and g5 aswell, g5 mlp is my favourite :3 i like a new generation and make your mark ^w^ i like the nice new unique vibes the new mlp gives off :3 and hey no prob, it's okay ^w^ even Spongebob, everyone's favourite sponge has told us that old people are wise and we should respect them :3 Spongebob and Patrick has given us alot of good advice before, like Spongebob taught me that games are not about winning, it's about fun! and if you listen carefully in the just one bite episode, Spongebob teaches us with this exact quote "not everyone has to like the same thing.." which is so darn true and i couldn't agree more X3 I like the grandma's kisses episode because it feels like going into littlespace ^-^ and yes Patrick, i totally agree with you. being grownup IS boring XD and Patrick being a dumb character, surprisingly has some wise advice himself, like "sometimes we have to go deep inside ourselves to solve our problems", and "knowledge can never replace friendship. i prefer to be an idiot!", and the advice i too always give "you're never gonna feel better until you get this thing off your chest!" which is why i gladly encourage any kind of venting, because it's better to let it out than hold it all in, you'll feel alot better when you vent, especially when you're with a comforting, understanding friend who wouldn't judge you no matter what :3

                                          hey it's okay if you're little, even just a little ^-^ i'm a very accepting, non judgemental person so if being little makes you happy and brings you comfort, i'd say go for it! screw the haters, screw the anti-cgls, and screw the boring normie adults who expect us to "act our age". as they say, the people that mind don't matter, and the people that matter don't mind. and it's true, because friends are important because they're supportive and accepting, but haters aren't important because they always nitpick and create problems no matter what you do, so screw the haters lol, put their trash talk back where it belongs: in the trash XDDD but yeah sorry to hear that your parents are just as crappy as mine :< family by blood sucks..that's why i need to find a littlespace family, i'd like to find some friends to call siblings, ma's and pa's, i think it'll be nice if i found myself my own big happy family i could call my real family instead <:3 someone who could look out for me and care for me, someone who could protect me and be mama bear when we need, someone who provides all the help, comfort, and support i never got when i was physically little <:3 the hobby that brings you comfort, that does sound like a very nice way to age regress ^-^ sometimes i like to play with bubbles, play with toys, hangout with my imaginary friends, and hug a stuffie while i watch a childhood show :3 i really want to get into playing pretend more, i want to play adventure and be an rpg hero! >:3

                                          yeah roleplaying with friends is fun ^w^ i like to rp with multiple ocs like the main gang Cody, Max, Lavender, and Zack, but sometimes i also include other characters too like Sakura, Alfie, Tiny, Zerda, and i plan on developing more i could maybe fit into rps ^-^ the kind of roleplaying i do isn't paragraph, but it is script style aka casual style, it's alot more fun that way. it's quicker, easier, and better in general, plus it's easier for multiple ocs like mine ^w^ my favourite rp genres is comedy and fantasy, which is what my comic will be :D my ocs are hilarious tho trust me XD i'm planning on working on a character.ai so people can get to know my ocs and rp with them whenever i'm not able to rp :3 cos i only rp with friends, also i wish my characters were real, so some of the ways i could make em virtually come true is that i could make plushies of them, fursuits of their animal forms, and the character.ai thing would be great if you wanted to talk to your characters, heh X3 it's a bit like a chatbot thing, it's surprisingly accurate! do you have any fictional dreams like that where they're not possible to come true but there's still other ways? :o for me it's being able to turn into my fox fursona, meeting my oc friends, and being able to go to my oc's universe X3

                                          cool! my chinese zodiac is the year of the rabbit and my starsign zodiac is the scorpio, so i actually made an oc called Scorpio Bunny, she's part scorpion and part lionhead rabbit :3 i plan to make better art of her tho <X3 also about your maned fox character, is it like maned wolves but foxes? ^-^ i have a closed species called the maned dragons, also known as fluffagons, they're based off fluffy eastern dragons and are inspired by foxes, cats, weasels, and have their own unique features too :3 in my livestream i was drawing one of the fluffagons called Daffodil ^w^ the species are pack animals aswell, though a pack of fluffagons is actually called a team of fluffagons, due to the fact they always work together, so their groups being called teams just makes sense X3

                                          it's no problem at all! ^-^ feel free to continue this on discord if you like :3 i do notice the comment boxes are getting rather thin and hard to talk in, whoops! XD

                                            Yeah, exactly! I wasted so much of my life on games and realized it'd become, at least to some extent, an addiction, so I decided I needed to step away for a bit and force myself to do more creative things. Like I used to do, hehe. And finally I can feel a bit accomplished about something. ^^;

                                            When I do play games, my preferences are kind of all over the place, but I think the types I've played the most are strats and management sims and builders. Like right before my hiatus I was playing various factory-type games. Satisfactory, Mindustry, etc. They're quite relaxing! Also there's this one little indie village management game called Odd World on itch.io that's really chill and relaxing. I actually do want to make a game or two myself eventually. Like I kind of had the idea of turning MHO into an RPG or like one of those VNs people make with ren'py, hehe.

                                            Fanart's always a welcome surprise yeah, hehe. >/w/< I really need to make some actual ref images for more of my characters. The only ones I have other than my fursona are either for characters I haven't written with yet, or are very out of date. (Brooke's sheet was made before I knew what exactly I was gonna do with him ^^;;) I also just need to draw more in general. I've tried a few times recently, but just couldn't get anywhere for one reason or another. x-x;

                                            I haven't looked at the new series yet. Haven't been watching much lately, other than Youtube vids. Need to fix that. Last series I watched until it ended was Owl House, which I adored. I also really enjoy 100% Wolf, both the movie and the show. Maybe it's a "guilty pleasure" of mine (though I hate that term), because I can definitely point out flaws, but it's just so enjoyable to me. >w<

                                            Heee.... thanks .//w//. Yeah I guess I might be at least little-adjacent sometimes. I certainly love my plushies and various other aesthetics of that. And sometimes I do just wish I could be smol and just enjoy simple things without worrying about the dark stuff in the world ><;

                                            Don't get me wrong, my family's okay overall, especially my brother and sis-in-law. My mother just has... serious issues. And my father's generally nice but unfortunately casually has some really fucked up views, if you'll excuse my french. >-o

                                            And aww that all sounds lovely! :3 I haven't played with bubbles in a while... they can certainly be fun, hehe. I always resented that certain things we did as kids, like 'pretend' stuff, becomes taboo after a certain age. Goodness knows I clung to it as long as I could, trying to get my brother to join me. I used to make up worlds that fused various video games and media we consumed. It's no wonder I came to appreciate tabletop RPGs later in life. If nothing else, they can certainly be another good outlet for some of that stuff. Doesn't have to be all battles and stuff either! In fact, in the ones I've played, sometimes those are pretty rare. I've even seen a couple systems that are oriented away from fighting, and more towards other kinds of adventure, discovery, and problem solving stuff. ^^ And of course just pursuing creative things like writing and art can also help with that. I should write something with Matty sometime... >>

                                            I don't really RP anymore these days sadly, for a variety of reasons- although I guess the above mentioned TTRPGs might sorta count. Though even that I sadly haven't done since 2020. I might get back to it eventually, but for now I'm just enjoying writing and doing stuff with my own little worlds. Up until sometime in 2022 I was actually working on a custom D&D setting I might use eventually.

                                            Comedy and fantasy hmm? Definitely two genres I quite enjoy as well! X3 My sona does have a "toony" mode after all. xp I enjoy light-hearted stuff and try to include it in my writing whenever I can. My favorite authors always included a bit of humor in their books. Terry Pratchett being the king of that kind of stuff, IMO.

                                            I'm familiar with those kinds of AI chat things, hehe. I do toy with them occasionally for fun, but usually I prefer to just write my own stories if I'm gonna be writing that much. That said, I can see how they'd be fun for exploring what your characters might do in all sorts of situations from another perspective than your own. =3

                                            As for characters becoming real, well... idk. That'd involve dragging them into this world, which I wouldn't really wish on them, given what a mess it is. ^^;; If anything sometimes I wish I could join them in theirs. That said, I definitely have pondered what it'd be like to hang out with them sometime. Heh, I actually had an idea recently for a kind of indulgent self-insert comfort fic I may write... .///.

                                            That said, I'd absolutely kill to be able to shapeshift and transform. I'd love to be my fursona or at least something like that. I pine to be soft and cute and fluffy, and have a tail to swish around, hehe. >/w/<

                                            Oooo bunny-scorpion, huh? Interesting combo! X3 I like all the interesting critters people have created. I've seen a bunch on cohost. There's this one artist that has this species called amphimorphos that I absolutely adore, hehe. And I meant maned wolf, I guess I just had foxes on the brain. XD They do resemble foxes tho after all! Fluffagons sound cute. I do love fuzzy dergs! :3 I definitely look forward to seeing your art of them! Daffodil is such a cute name. :D

                                            I need to make more custom species. I have a few, but they're under-developed. I also gave species custom names in MHO, but they're mostly just replacement names. Konuul are basically wuskies (wolf+husky hybrid), sereva are basically deer but with some funky markings, lepne are bunny-people, etc.

                                            And yeah, fair point. I can't help but reply where I see something, so since I typed this up already I'll post it here, but moving would probably be a good idea. XD Shame we can't stretch the columns or something, hehe.

                                          Yeahhh I think I'll limit my responses here to the areas I feel like I have more to say, hehe. These columns are gettin' thin xD

                                          Good to know Pokemon is trending more that direction at least. And yeah, I have no interest in Palworld. Some of the designs look interesting and I've enjoyed some of the fanart, but otherwise that game just absolutely doesn't seem like I'd enjoy it. x_o I actually don't mind FPS games sometimes, though I tend to be picky about them... and as usual I mostly play solo, so yeah. Shame people can be so toxic. (Also sorry your brother was such a jerk >-<) And I'm really not interested in games where the cute critters are being abused that way. ><; To each their own, but yeah, pass for me there...

                                          Yeah I'm not an aggressive person either. Or competitive. When i play games, I just want to unwind and enjoy myself, y'know? And oof, don't get me started on manipulative bullies that try to twist things for the sake of drama.... >_<
