The news of Ajani’s compleation affected me pretty heavily. I didn’t know I was so attached to Ajani, but I was. It makes sense: Magic is a pretty strong part of my identity. My sona has red and blue markings for the Izzet guild. Ajani is my laptop background. I would have wild fantasies of him turning me into a Leonin and increasing our power (usually by going infinite). But beyond that, he was just really hot, I love what he stood for, and I loved his mechanics (albeit I didn’t play him in many decks, as I enjoy playing Izzet much more). I don’t think Ajani is a symbol for me coming out, though I got into Magic at about the same time I really started to be comfortable with being gay and a furry.

I’m so upset at Wizards. I don’t know what else to say. I don’t think they’re bringing him back, either. We’ll never get more cards of our giant, muscular, loving, anthro white lion.

Fuck. I don’t know. I’m trying to get over it, as I start college classes this Monday, but it’s hard.
