So, I was

Chatterbox: Pudding's Place

So, I was

So, I was just going to put away Shifting and Volcano for good in favor of some imaginary friends I made up, Phantom, Traveler, and Masquerade, and some friends on a different writing forum called Quotev, and a few IRL friends.

Then I was reminded of this place.

Hi again, to those who knew me, Somebody, and nice to meet you if you don't.

Man, I look at these threads, and remember a simpler time. A more innocent time.

A distant time.

Who am I now? A different Somebody from the one you met on the Chatterbox so long ago. I'm a 12-year-old, fanfiction-writing, ship-obsessed fangirl. I listen to Japanese voice synthesizers sing songs about dark topics. I ship everything that moves. And my language has... ah... gotten more free, shall I say. 

Middle school in the GT program. Five classrooms a day. A locker full of papers, in which it's impossible to find anything. A demanding workload-- at ANY GIVEN MOMENT, we're working at one project or another. (Right now I'm doing a Who Am I project for ELA, which through paragraph responses and reading logs has become my least favorite class.) And the people... we mingle with the normal 6th graders for music and PE, and they hate us.

I am such an egotist, to spend so much time talking about myself! Gomen ne. (That means "sorry" in Japanese. I am such a weeb.) How is everyone here? Who's still here, who has left? Anything interesting happen? I see there are multiple threads on the topic of politics, and I'll just say straight up that I think all three leading candidates are horrible. I'd gladly write long rants on each of them. Ah, now I'm back to talking about myself! 

Shifting: And you call me an arrogant, concieted egotist... imbecile.

Volcano: *blowing something up*

Fruity: rher! 

Somebody: Seems like Fruity agrees here... Enough politics for now. Anyway, please talk to me, I'm bored XD

Hey! Good to see you! Probably not a good time to drop in though, there's lots of drama, and blahblahblah.

I know, I'm such a hypocrite. XD Xp

Uh...

Hi.

You should, um, maybe stop leaving and coming back every five seconds? I mean, I'm glad about you coming back and all, but you really...

Ah, forget it. Welcome back.

[Spyro] *waves* Hi Shifting! And Volcano! Ooh, do you need any help exploding things?...

Hello! This is Bibliophile! I doubt you remember me, which is fine. I'm glad your'e back.

Also, I always wondered: by "Somebody, age: Who Cares" do you mean someone who cares about your well-being, or that you don't care about age?

I remember you, Bibliophile!

I came up with "who cares" because, when I made my first few comments, I wasn't prepared to become part of the community. That's also why I didn't put in as much thought into my name and location, either. I'm glad for my name choice, though-- I actually go by "Somebody" in real life now! And I'm pretty sure my thinking at the time was closer to the latter, to answer your question!

SOMEBODYYYYYY!! YOU'RE BACK!!!!!!!! I MISSED YOU SO MUCH! Sorry for all the caps. I'm not sure if you even remember me, but the CB has been different without you. Please stick around for a while, I'll be extremely sad if you don't. Welcome back.

Of course I remember you, and I plan do on staying for the duration! I'll be on whenever I can (which I can't promise will be often, but probably at least two or three times a week)!

SOMEBODY!!!!

WELCOME BACK!!! (Even if you're not permanently back.) 

Many new people have come, there's a new thing called Kyngdom, and I got a new AE!

Hellooo! 

This is Pellucid.

Pleased to meet you, Somebody the Vibrant. And you, Volcano Flame the Ignited.  Shifting.... Hi.  You'll like another AE on here, Umbridja. And Ms. E.

Mei (previously known as Leaf of Love) has two new AEs! He-min and Fu-di-mo. He-min is the Chinese Hermionie and Fu-di-mo is the Chinese Voldemort. MewFour has a slight obsession with him.

Mei will tell you more.

(Sorry!)

Sounds exciting! I'll be on when I can, though that's not a whole lot... ^_^" 

Volcano: HAAAAAIIIIII!!!

Shifting: *dryly* Regards. And I'll judge for myself who I would like, thank you very much. 

Somebody: Rude?

SOMEBODYSOMEBODYSOMEBODY!

You're back! I've missed Volcano and Shifting, they always make me laugh. You haven't missed a lot, just oh, the HUGE GIANT AND TOTALLY INSANE AE Crush Not-Really-a-War, lots of new RPs, several new CBers, Ruby M. is back, Biblio and I are recreating Rosebud's Cricket News, and I got another AE. Her name is Mandy, she loves muffins, soap operas, tripping people, and isn't quite insane but just doesn't have a lot of common sense.

Ookz would like to give a message to Fruity: "zmrb". Eloquent, Ookz, eloquent. I hope that you'll continue to pop in even if you've grown away from us a little.

Don't know if you know me, or even remember me, but I sure know you!!! You're like, an amazing CBer, and one of the greatest CBers ever!!! (At least, that's what I think. :)
Um, I don't think you have met Puck, my AE.
Puck: Hello Shifting, and *Grits her teeth* Volcano.
Me: Uh-oh. Puck, are you jealous?!?!
Puck: *Whistles innocently* Maybe.....
*Sigh* OK FINE YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
VOLCANO, I WILL FIGHT YOU FOR DEV. HE'S MINE!!!!!!!!!!
Me: Ok, I better scramble out of here, and FAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I suggest you do the same Somebody......
Puck: BEWARE THE WRATH OF PUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ooo I've been wanting to use a lot of emoticons, too! I think 9, probably. A lot of CBers have been saying stuff about missing you. 

Party emoticon: ~~( * o*)~~
