Oh god guys I'm so sorry and I never thought this day would come, but.

I'm dropping Route.

You have all been amazing, and it's definitely the playerbase that's kept me here so long. But I can't find my motivation for the game anymore, and it's not fair to anyone if I just wibble back and forth and actually accomplish nothing. So Rise will be going home.

Pokémon are up for grabs, though Kanzeon is going to be fussy depending on who she goes to.

I love you all and I will miss the hell out of you, and I hope I get to cross paths with a bunch of you in the future.

oh wow, i definitely didn't see this coming.

But it would not be fair to ask you to stay, and you should always do what is best for you. You have been absolutely phenomenal, I've always loved our CR, and honestly, Kisa's been the main reason I kept Ritsu around, so at least she won't be alone. Thank you so much for being here and playing with us, you will be sorely missed.

Melissa, you have been a joy to thread with through everything. Your Ritsu was beautiful, your Fluttershy was beautiful, your Minnie was beautiful. Thank you for continuing to be amazing.

;a; n-not gonna cry. nope, not gonna cry while typing this up.

I've had... such a blast tagging your Rise, even before I got into the game or the cast. I loved the threads we had between her and Daisuke. And now I'm kind of bummed that I didn't act more on it.

AND THEN I GOT INTO THE CAST AND YOU WERE JUST SO WARM AND WELCOMING AND AND AWESOME TO TAG AND PLOT THINGS WITH. I love the dynamic these two developed and it's just... so... i can't even describe how happy I was to read your tags and then tag things back. All things they've done have been nothing but awesome. I'm still kind of sad that we never got to do the whole ice cream thing with officer jenny, BUT HEY. WE CAN... WE CAN MUSEBOX THAT OUT ;A;

s-so long as you want to and junk.

;~; I'm so happy I decided to join in, because you're one of the reasons that make my day so awesome when it comes to doing kanji tags.

aaah also can Kanji look over pancake? ;o;a

oh my god Linlin I am dying baby no ;w;

You have been a phenomenal Kanji and I've been immensely honored to be in the same cast with you ;w;

ALSO OF COURSE I WANT TO MUSEBOX ~~everything~~ THAT OUT

and Pancake is his ♥

;a;/

sdlkafjsldj I-I'm nothing without you guys s-seriously ahhh.

A-AND OKAY IT WILL BE DONE WHENEVER I'VE GET SOME SPARE TIME ;v;

and he will take the best care! YOU WON'T EVEN.

I didn't expect to wake up and see this ;u; I'm going to miss all the CR with you a lot, Kia. You're a wonderful person to RP with and I'll always talk with you in Plurk as well.

Thank you for plotting up with me ;u;

WARNING: this comment contains sappy feelings.

I'm really sad to see you go, Kia. This may sound weird given that we haven't CR in ages I keep asking myself why, but just the very fact that you were here made this game a better place for me. Because you're an amazing person and absolutely gorgeous player, bringing joy and happiness wherever you go. It's really hard to imagine Route without you. This place will never be the same, and I mean it.

... Congratulations on making me cry again.

Regardless, do what you have to do! Have no regrets, since you've helped to build something beautiful, and a part of you will remain here with us forever. So take care and best of luck! I hope we can keep in touch.

See you around, Queen of Route!

I've already gushed on Plurk and probably completely embarrassed myself and/or made you feel even WORSE so I'm really sorry, for the record. ;-;

But yeah, I'm just gonna... repeat what everyone up there said. This was a punch in the gut to wake up to but I sort of knew it was coming and I know it's for the best, because it's not fair at all for you to try and keep plugging away in a game you aren't feeling, which I know you tried so hard to do.

You were one of the first people ever to play with me here-- not just in Route, but in the entire LJ scene in general. When I joined up, I was completely terrified that no one would want to play with me, or that I was annoying, or that people had better things to do in general. But you were just so loving and friendly and welcoming that it just made the biggest difference in the world. I'm not sure I can even find words for it. And you didn't just give that to me, you gave it to everybody and that just makes you amazing. I'm so awkward talking to people one on one so it's a little easier over here in a comment box, but to me you'll always be the biggest part of what made Route what it was with your friendliness and just... dedication to trying to make everybody feel welcome. Ever since I got to know you in any capacity at all, I've just kind of been consistently amazed at how wonderful and loving a person you are.

And not just oocly, but ICly, too. You're such a wonderful writer and your characters-- ALL of them, not just Rise-- brought so much life to this place. You've made such a big difference to both me AND the character I play and I really, really wish I'd been able to somehow return the favor as much as I wanted to-- on both fronts. I'm sorry we plotted too little, too late-- especially since I know you've had so much pressure on you lately and I really should've thought of that ahead of time.

TL;DR You're amazing and I hope we'll be able to play together again someday. I don't care in what capacity-- meme, game, whatever. Or even if we never wind up playing together again, I'd love to stay in contact anyway, just because. But even if we don't, I hope all the luck and love you deserve follows you wherever you go and stays with you always, because... just, man, if anyone I know deserves it, it's you.

Take care, okay?

This place will never be the same without you and we were incredibly, incredibly lucky to have you for as long as we did.

_{And on an IC note, I'd love Heather to be able to get Fukuro back if that's all right?}

EDIT: OH SHIT I forgot to add: THANK YOU so much for everything. That part is really important.

Words cannot express how sad I am to see you leave. I have loved every single minute of playing off your characters, especially Rise. Her CR with Athrun has been some of the best I have ever had with the man, and if I had the opportunity, I'd play it out all over again if I could.

Any time you want to play off my characters, I am more than game.You're one of my favorite people to play off of, and I don't want to stop just because we're no longer in any games together.

Also Athrun will take Kanzeon. He's probably done enough to earn her favor by now.

Kiaaaa. ;_; It's going to be really weird without you here. Like really weird, since we've been in the game together for around the same amount of time. I still remember Kay and Larry being derps way back in 2010. Even though we haven't had CR in a long time, I'm so used to you being here, y'know? So I'm echoing the others above that this game will not be the same without you.

I wish you the best, and I hope work gets less stressful on you. Thanks for all the good times and threads, Kia!

/makes it a mission to get CR with you at Asgard

KUJIKAWA-SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN

No really I will save my many feelings on this for Plurk where the 140-character post limit will help to curb at least some of my ability to tl;dr, but suffice to say, you were one of the first people I met when I joined Route, one of my closest friends throughout the experience, and one of my favorite people to thread and plot with. You were also my gateway into Persona 4 in the first place so it's basically your fault I even have like half the friends and CR that I do now, and...you know. Sine qua non, "but for this, it would not be". But for you, my Route experience absolutely would not have been what it has. Fuck yeah, gratuitous Latin.

You better return Yagyuu's Laser one of these days, Kujikawa-san. You better be able to do it the next time your paths cross again. That's not something he can forgive, if you can't. ♥

Also, if Rise is still caretaking for Sugar, Yagyuu will adopt him, unless you can think of someone else you'd like him to inherit instead.

Kia, I can't....I can't put into words all you've done for me, whether you know it or not. All our threading and plotting and talking and ficcing got me through a lot of rough times, and I'm so, so grateful to you for that...so grateful your Rise was the first I ever encountered and so so glad her CR with Lightning got to where it did. I read our old threads and grin like a goofy goof ball everytime and I'm always gonna do that, so...thank you. A thousand times, thank you.

I'm sorry if none of that makes any sense but it's 1PM and I'm still tearing up. I'll miss you so much, but we will always have museboxing and plurk and AIM and you better expect fic and stuff. Because you're getting them, oh fair Queen of Route.

And, if it's okay with you, Lightning will take Rosemary. Odin will take good care of his little pony friend who turned into a beautiful unicorn on him.

Senor Kia, I am truly going to miss you so much. I think it goes without saying that you have been a fantastic roleplayer to have at Route, from your time as Kay, Asuka, Rise, just everyone. You've always been so great about tagging and plotting, and approachable. Man, you've heard this a lot from me but you really have had a way of playing your characters well and heck, your Kay and Rise has been one of the main reasons why I've even joined Route in the first place. Might sound creepy but I've enjoyed stalking them and just wanted to have a chance to play with them.

It's going to be not the same without knowing that you're in the game. You've been here since the beginning and my tears, senor. It has been a complete honour being apart of your cast and I am going to bother you on plurk all the time!! Leader isn't going anywhere and I will be happily stalking you in other games, heheheh.

But take care and everything, Kia! Thanks for all the memories!! ♥♥♥

And can Senpai claim Crystal? That big puppy of a Steelix ;;

oh my god Kia ♥ I seriously read this post three times hoping it was a drop joke that was just going over my head somehow

but it's... not, I guess? BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN THIS IS GOODBYE, OKAY. you can't get rid of me, that's just not an option. I'm sorry, but you're stuck with me. full-stop.

I'm going to miss seeing Rise around so much, even though neither of my current characters had CR with her. she honestly brightened up the game for us players; she brightened up the whole region for the characters. ~~wow okay stop crying~~—

anyway, even if this isn't a goodbye, it's a something, so I'll say all this stupid heartfelt shit while I have the opportunity and it doesn't seem completely out of left field:

you are a brilliant RPer and an amazing friend, and I am so, so unspeakably happy to have met you. this game has brought to me so many wonderful people, and you are no exception. playing with Rise (with any of your characters, honestly) has been an absolute pleasure, A++, would thread again. every interaction was a joy, and I hope that however it comes about — memes, another game, museboxing — I will soon have Kia tags in my inbox again. ♥

tl;dr: I LOVE YOU KIA STAY WONDERFUL ♥ and don't you dare defriend me on plurk grrrrl I will cut you

Aibou, my aibou. I'm glad we met here, and know that I adored every single thread I've had with you. Thank you for being such a wonderful castmate, wonderful partner, and wonderful... well, person! I can't say much because there's no way I'm not going to bother the heck out of you in the other games we're in, but know that I'll really miss our Teddie-Rise threads.

OUR HEARTS WILL GO ON

AND

YEAH srry 2 say you won't get rid of me ♥

Kia...

I haven't gotten to play with you as much as everyone else, but what I have done with you has always been awesome. You're fantastic and fabulous, and I'm really really sad to see you go. I'm just glad I got to be in a game with you again.

And I'm really bad at these things. So I'm going to stop before I say something stupid. Just know I still adore you.

But I will always be around Plurk or AIM to pester if you need me.

I'll miss you so much, Kia! You've always been so friendly to me and watching you gave me a lot of courage to jump into posts I might not have otherwise tagged or even made. ;-; I've loved your posts even before I was in Route because Kit would read them to me.

I LOVE YOU OKAY

Saber's stand-in princess... ;w; She will miss her so hard. You were always so much fun to tag with and always willing to tag back no matter how long it took me to tag you in return. Thank you for all that you've done not only for Saber, but for me as a player as well. Thank you. If you ever want to do something out of game, I'm always open for it.

I'd like for Saber to adopt one of her Pokemon of course, but I rather wait for Rise's closer CR to speak up. Would it be too much trouble for me to wait?

I don't have all the words to express how sad I am to see you go. I was honestly half-asleep when I saw your plurk about dropping and I thought I was dreaming it, but seeing this post just makes me want to bawl :( I will miss your Rise so much, and so will Marui. You were one of the first people I made friends with here at Route, when I came back from my year-long hiatus from RPing and I am really grateful to have met you, Kia!

I'd love to keep RPing with you, though, even if they're just in memes and museboxes. I don't want to not be able to play with you anymore! ;o;

A-and if no one will take her, Marui will look after Himiko for Rise.
