This is the first time I've posted on one of these things in awhile.
Actually, it feels like the first one we've HAD in awhile!
But anyway, uh... this place has grown so much since I first joined it the May before last. It's hard to put into words what it, and everyone in it, means to me, so I'll try not to tl;dr too much on you guys. But to make a long story short, I feel like I've grown so much here, and even though I can't tag every single post like I used to back in Route's baby days, I see people playing and having fun and it just makes me so happy that I've gotten to watch it grow up.
Since coming to Dreamwidth, we've seen both a crop of lovely new players and the loss of quite a few of our old ones. Well-- new or old, every single one of you brings or has brought something special to this place, and every single tag I have ever gotten from any of you is nothing short of an honor. That sounds really dramatic and I wish I could think of a way to dial it down without losing the gravitas, but that really is how I think of it.
SO... I LOVE YOU, ROUTE. I love everyone who's still here, and I love the players who helped me grow up with this game but aren't with us anymore. There are days when I just go back and reread all the old threads (even ones none of my characters were involved in!) that made me laugh or choke up so hard and the fact that they can still make me so stupidly emotional when they're long over just tells me that what people have done in this game will always be special. I just wish I could give even a fraction back of what you guys have all given me, and given this game.
Of course, something this cheesy can only be saved by including a corny 90's pop song.

Every word of this applies.
