Winter it
Chatterbox: Pudding's Place
Winter it&#
Winter
it's cold in winter
(headphones screaming Imagine Dragons trying to drown out her thoughts)
the wind blows trying to break through your coat and freeze you up
(she used to beg her mom to help her make posts on that corner of the internet that was safe under the blue dome)
snow blows into your eyes and you can't see and you have to trust that you know where you're going
(she doesn't trust anyone, especially not since that blue dome shattered and it wasn't safe anymore)
it feels like neptune or enceladus and you feel like you're gonna get sucked into the vacuum of space
(she's not naiive anymore and now she wears black hoodies with the hood up and plays angsty music and wears her hair over her eyes)
when it's this cold you gotta get to somewhere warm
(she can't bear to leave that blue dome though and so she just pretends she's someone else-- she doesn't even like that old name anyway or the person who went with it)
and there's always someplace you can go
(she lingers on the name box and then types it in)
it doesn't have to be cold in winter

Agent Winter! I don't think we ever officially met! I'm Nyx.

So, guys? I kinda hinted at this in the (really bad) poem, and I've never been very good at hiding, but I just wanted to let y'all know in case you didn't figure it out...
I am Fleet.
Sorry for lying to you guys.
I hope you'll forgive me.
...Was that too dramatic?

Did you change you're name..........?
...
...
...
I feel kinda stupid now............
(October 28, 2019 - 1:16 pm)
Wait, let me rephrase this in case it’s not clear: I am Agent Winter, but I am also Fleet. I was the same person all along. I am SO SORRY.
(October 28, 2019 - 1:58 pm)
That's actually really cool. Did you do it bc of a dual personality thing? I know it's possible, I myself have two alternate personalities.
(October 28, 2019 - 3:46 pm)
Ah, welcome back, Agent Winter! Also I knew it! You're Fleet! I mean, I basically just noticed that your art styles were very very similar. So I didn't really know but I'm glad you told us and using your old name.

*Reads thread beginning* OMIGOSH AW! Hiiiii! Btw--I really get you. *Is kind of wondering who Agent Winter was going by*
*Reads next post by Agent Winter* Ah. Ah. Aaaah. WHAT?????
I mean, okay, this is not the most unexpected, I had kinda felt I think like there was someone here on the CB who seemed a lot like you (as Agent Winter) and I thought you might be sticking around but I couldn't really pinpoint it I guess and now I'm really shocked. (Not in a bad way really. Just plain surprised out of my mind) But anyways...*tackle hugs* I'm glad to see you and have you here, no matter what name you're going by.

*has read the whole post* *starts to cry for multiple reasons*
*hugs Agent Winter tightly* Oh my goodness, you have no clue how many thoughts and feelings are running around in my brain right now....
I've missed you lots. But now that I realize that you and Fleet are one and the same, it feels like I've lost another friend... again. I've lost you, but I've found you as well... so I'm not exactly sure what to feel right now.. I'm sad, and I'm happy at the same time.... I haven't felt this way in a long time.
You have no idea how excited I was this morning when I saw your post, saying you were back. I literally jumped up and down squealing in my room. I'm surprised my siblings didn't hear me.
I admire you greatly.
And now, I still am really happy you're back, it's just... a little different too. Knowing that you and Fleet are one and the same.
I should have realized that you were the same, your drawing styles looked very similar.
Wow, and now I'm talking as if you and Fleet were 2 different people, which you were, are, ugh! I don't know anymore. *chuckles a little bit*
Just... wow, this is still a lot to soak in... sorry. *takes a deep breath*
Thanks for telling us. I admire you greatly, especially when the Agent Winter you left because your beliefs were being attacked. I hope that even though when you came on under a pseudonym as Fleet, you still held on to your beliefs even though AW "left."
*hugs you again*
Glad you felt the courage to show yourself as Agent Winter again. Remember when you as Fleet asked for a picturing from me? Well, I've been working on it for a while. It's still not finished. But... now knowing that you and Fleet are the same person, which again is still a lot to take in, I think I'm going to change the picturing a little bit. And I'll show you it when I'm done.
I love you. I hope that's not weird to say, but truly I do as a really great CB friend. You're amazing, thank you for having the courage to tell us you are Fleet, and having the courage to come back as AW. :)
(October 28, 2019 - 5:25 pm)
You're Fleet? Geez.....and I always thought you would be one of those CBers who I'd never know even though everyone else did because I joined at the wrong time. Wait, is Fleet Agent Winter or is Agent Winter Fleet?......
I can just not see you as the same person........
So I'm super happy you're back but not? Because you were already here? I don't know. I'm glad you decided to tell us though!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3 <3

OH MY KYNDGOM WINTER MY FRIEND MY FRIEND I SWEAR I'M GONNA CRY WE MISSED YOU SO MUCH---- AHAAAHAHAHAHAAAAHHH
*Tackle hugging*
*tackle hugging*
*tackle hugging*
We missed you so much...!
And I knew Fleet was you the whole time, actually- your drawings were the exact same style, you both used "prolly" and "lol", you talke the same way, you both replied to comments instead of making new ones, you talked the same way, described yourselves the same way, had the same KotOR obsession, you both loved huskies... *shrugged* I just knew it was you when Fleet started posting. I just kinda grew less certain over the months. And I didn't want to call you out or anything, so.
And I have to say, that poem is spectacular. And I'm extremely glad to have you back.

I KNEW YOU TWO SEEMED FAMILIAR!!! Even your AEs had the same personalities! You both had spunk, called me your CBF, RPed similarly, had the same interests, OOOOOH I SHOULD HAVE SEEN IT BEFORE!!!
(October 28, 2019 - 6:54 pm)
Agent Winter!! *hugs* It's so, so good to see you again. Welcome back, if you're going to stay, or hello again of you aren't. I have to say, it was a bit of a shock finding out you're Fleet (though I did recognize the artistic similarities), but I don't blame you for it. I understand why you did it, and it's okay. We never really talked, but I missed you, and it's good to have you back.
