Hi guys!Most
Hi guys!
Most of you probably don't know me (at least, I don't know most of you), but I just thought I'd drop in to say hi since I haven't been on here in such a long time. If you couldn't tell from my name box, my name is The Riddler, and I joined the CB four years ago, in February of 2016, and I was active here for maybe 2-2.5 years before I became a very busy person and slowly drifted away. One of the best parts was being part of one of the few RPs to actually finish on the CB, the Evernaught City RP, which I just looked through and fell in love with again. I have a lot more time now that everyone's in quarantine, and it's been fun to poke around and see how much things have changed around here. Things really have changed, a lot.
Anyways, I'm also a lot different from the mildly annoying 13 year old who first joined here too. I've had my driver's license for over a year now, I'm a junior in high school, I have ridiculous amounts of homework, and in less than four months I'll be a legal adult. I'll be able to vote in this year's election, I have a summer job (if that doesn't get cancelled...), and I'll be applying to colleges a few months from now too. After years of being in the ensemble, I finally got a lead role in the musical and got to play Donna in Mamma Mia! And I miss this place a lot. I know I won't become a fully active CBer again, but I'll probably stick around for the next few days and see what's going on. Maybe in a couple years I'll introduce my sister here. She would like it.
To those of you who I do know, and those I haven't met, hello! How's it going around here? Admins, how are you? It's really great to see this place again!
It's great to hear from you, Riddler! We're all fine, working from home, thankful for the internet to be able to keep Chatterbox going, enjoying hearing from all of you. Thank you for asking. We love hearing from CB alums like you. Please keep in touch every so often, if you can. And remember the Valentine's Day reunions.

Aaaah The Riddler! I know you! I'm not sure that we were on at the same time, but I definitely know you from old threads, at least. If we haven't met, hi! I'm Agent Winter, resident fangirl, gamer, and Pretty Bad Artist™! I've been on here for 2 years now. It's great to see you here again!

Hey Winter! I don't know if I've been totally active since you've been here, but I definitely remember seeing you around. It's good to see you!

Hi! Wow! I'm barely on here either, I'm just checking in more because I'm bored in quarantine. The Evernaught City RP was probably my favorite thing I ever did on the CB – coincedentally, I was looking at it recently too. (I was kind of an overdramatic eighth-grader when I wrote some of it, but I still enjoyed reading it. I'm also a junior now – my birthday's too late in the school year for me to vote in November, though – and I've never fallen off a cliff or been stabbed or bitten by a poisonous snake or whatever else.) I don't know if I ever said it at the time, but it was so much fun to write that Rex-Saana dynamic with you.
Anyway, yeah, the CB has changed a lot. I barely recognize the names anymore. I'm glad I saw this thread – I hope you're doing okay! It's cool to hear from you!

Hi Zeus! It's really good to see you again! The Evernaught City RP really was such a good time, and writing the whole Rex and Saana relationship was a lot of fun for me too. Some of my writing, especially near the beginning, makes me cringe a little now, and I think we were all a little overdramatic, but it turned out to be such a good story and I'm glad we ended up finishing it.
Anyways, I hope you're doing alright in quarantine, and maybe I'll see you around!

Eyyyyyy hello! *Tackle hugs* It's Leafpool, I switched to Leafy a while ago. Thanks for visiting!! Wow, congratulations on the driver's license and the voting and good luck with colleges and things!
Yeah, the CB has changed a lot, and a lot of people have left or faded away without telling us. It's definitely not the same forum as it was, but it's still a great place to be! But anyway, it's nice to see you again. It'd be great if you hung around for a little while!

Hi Leafy!!! *hugs*
It's great to see you and to see someone who was around when I was :) The CB does look really different but it's cool to see a new generation of CBers around. Also, thanks! Life has been getting pretty crazy recently so in some ways, it's nice that quarantine has slowed things down and given me some breathing space, but at the same time I'd rather just be back in school and seeing friends again.
How's it going with you?

Riddler!! Hi, it's so good to see you!! I'm pretty sure we were on at the same time, but I don't know if you remember me or not. I can't believe you're going to be an adult... that's crazy. Time flies! Although I wasn't in it, and I don't think ever commented on it, I remember Evernaught City. It was the first rp I read when I joined, to kind of figure out how the CB worked. I read it all the way through, and it still stands as my favorite thread ever. Again, it's so great to see you, I'm so glad you came for a visit!

Hey Quill, it's good to see you too! I definitely remember you from when I was active, and I'm glad you got to look through the RP! See you around!
(Side note, this isn't really directed at you but: since when did CAPTCHA's start speaking in 5 letters? They've become so advanced!)
(May 6, 2020 - 1:12 pm)
*squeal* Hi Riddler! *hugs* Not totally sure if you remember me at all, but I totally remember you! :) It's good to see you around, even if just for a bit! :)
(May 5, 2020 - 3:17 pm)
Joan, hi! *hugs* And yeah, I definitely remember you! It's good to see you around!
(May 6, 2020 - 1:13 pm)
Good to see you too! *hugs again* How's life? How's school online, and how are you surviving during this pandemic?

Hello The Riddler. I am Peregrine. You won’t know me as I only joined about a month ago. I enjoy playing violin, spending time outside, reading and writing. I’ll have to check out the Evernaught City RP, it sounds really cool. It’s nice to meet you and I hope to see you around the CB!
(May 6, 2020 - 11:02 am)
Hey, Riddler, I remember you! (But it's totally fine if you don't remember me- I only joined when you were starting to kind of fade.) It's good to see you! I used to be Soren P/Soren Infinity. Congrats on getting Donna in your musical! Ours was cancelled (but I didn't know my lines anyways XD). Anyways, good to hear from you!! <3
(May 6, 2020 - 2:12 pm)
Hi Riddler! You wouldn't know me, because I'm pretty new. I haven't seen the Evernaught RP, but maybe I will go look for it, just to see what it's like.
You got to play Donna? That's awesome! I've been getting really into musicals. My favorite is Hamilton, which I have been listening to for a long time. I also recently listened to Mamma Mia, and I really like it. It is a very different style, though.
