I know this thread is kinda dead, but I needed to make a quick throwaway to pop in after finding it with a friend. We used to know Wolfette, as well as NemoOceansoul, as mutuals on a discord server up until about 2019. Somehow, we managed to end up in the "eye of the storm" as it were and avoid about 90% of this saga, despite being right next to it for quite a while. After binging the thread, I figured we owed a thanks to the fine folk who showed us so much we never knew about our old friends. We laughed, we cried, we felt our soul drain from our bodies. We're digging through old chats we still have to see if there's anything floating around that we can pump into this well to keep it from going completely dry, but I wouldn't count on it. Either way, it was one hell of a journey, and maybe we'll see 'em again. Here's an old reddit exchange we never did see in the thread as a token of appreciation. Apologies if it was posted before and we missed it, but it doesn't seem like it.
