Dear Egglets--
no,
DEAR EGG FRIENDS,
It's a sad day to have to see the conclusion of oH--something that started a simple idea off of its predecessor, evolved into a bunch of excited ideas that were things we'd never seen tried before, evolved into an early materialization while we refined behind the scenes, and ultimately became what you've all known it to be. It's been a long journey, full of passion about what we were doing and a lot of hard work that we knew would pay off if we kept to it--and it did! Tenfold.
It's funny--I've told myself for years, I'll never administrate an rp group again, and yet I still ended up doing this alongside Hat. I knew it was going to be worth it when I started, though; it was a gut feeling--and I don't regret it. Granted, now I'm telling myself to swear off all rp group modding going forward, because I am pretty exhausted, but doing oH was absolutely worth it--plus I've been able to achieve a personal and artistic growth because of it, not to mention getting to meet and befriend and roleplay and draw with so many awesome people (that means you!!!!!), and watch everyone evolve along with me.
You all are--were, the entire time--the lifeblood of this group. We never expected to get such a wonderful group of artists and storytellers to come and collaborate a story with us about, of all things, magical eggs; and we've continuously been blown away by everyone's participation, imagination, and passion that more often than not, felt comparable to and even exceeded ours. The feeling of so many people working with the same height of enthusiasm toward making something great is a magical thing, and it's something that oH has absolutely captured across the year, creating an invaluable experience for which I can say only: thank you. Whether you've been here for a while or here for not so long, whether you were here but left, whether you were the peak of active or wavering in activity or weren't even very active at all: thank you. Whether you just drew, just roleplayed, just attended chat events, just hc'd, did a just combination of those things, did all of those things: thank you. You contributed to something great, and we thank you for being a part of what made that great. You are great.
I am so proud of everyone for what's been created over the past year, and even prouder to be able to see it off with the knowledge of all the development everyone's had, be it in characters, in art skills, in writing, in lives and careers--and I'm looking so forward to continuing to follow everyone to see how things turn out in the future, because goddamn was oH blessed to have a really talented group of people in it who are all going to go far.
Thank you all again, everyone!!
And congrats on surviving Egg Hell!!
also HEHEHHEH # BESTEND
Faberge still supreme even at the very end
PEACE--I LOVE YOU ALL
My dear Egglets,
You cannot always be torn in two
You have to be one, and whole, for many years
You have so much to enjoy
And to be
And to do
Your part in the story will go on.
All references aside, this is the end of this sparkling dream. We’ve had over a year spent together with all sorts of ups and downs, and it’s a little strange to think “this is where we’ve finally ended up”. This group started as a heart’s wish from both Pai and I to make something that the two of us could be proud of, and I like to think that we accomplished just that. There was many nights of planning, graphic making, coding, rewriting, designing, the whole works that was put into the group, and as our members you all have been nothing but repeatedly appreciative. It brings a little nostalgic skip to my heart to think back of some of my favorite moments- mostly the repeated suffering of every egg holder in this group as I find new and better reasons to drive them deeper into despair, but I digress.
The only way this group ever could have worked was with you guys, and you all made it happen. I was consistently amazed on how many people were interested in us- especially in such a niche source like Shugo Chara. But you all came anyway, and you came with quality characters that could live up to the expectations us as admins have dreamed up to roleplay in! You are the ones who have nurtured our setting and brought it to life, and for that I cannot understate my gratitude. But it wasn’t all about the roleplay aspect of the group that pulled interest, oh no, it was the activity. The involvement. The investment, again, that you as members put into us that made open-HEARTS worth anything. The community was the true embryo to this heart’s wish, and by damn am I not endlessly proud of that.
This is a heartfelt confession that goes out to all members- to our oldest members, who’ve stayed with both Pai and I from before the group’s initial enrollment, to those who joined after, to the four of you who didn't really get to experience egg hell (I'M SO SORRY), to those who’ve left our doors:
Thank you.
Thank you for putting your faith in us, and thank you for helping our “dream” come true. Thank you for curing X-Eggs, breaking hearts, tracking down X-Hunters, solving puzzles, making heart’s wishes with us, for over a year. And while this may be the end for this group, I hope that you’ve achieved something for your time spent with us, even if it was just getting a neat little shoujo-anime story out of it. I know for some of you this group was a crutch that pulled you out of a darkness, the same goes for me as well. I’ve gotten so much fulfillment out of this group, it’s.. gonna be so weird to know that there won’t be any more content, anymore. I’ve learned so much, grown so much- AND I’LL STOP RAMBLING NOW I’m just really emotional over the whole thinG... I’m just so endlessly proud of all of us.
We made something cool.
We survived Egg Hell !!!
And averted # GETBADEND look at that. What a concept.
