So, after years of not having a fursona, then introducing a little-used raccoon, I've finally decided:

Thorn is my sona now. I am Thorn. Fear me!

So what does this actually mean going forward? Well, the thing that most people will probably be concerned with is that yes, Thorn will be changing a bit. He'll look the same, but his personality, behavior, and speech will be shifting somewhat to be a better fit for me. I'm not going to make him an anxiety-riddled always friendly nice guy, but he will be portrayed as a bit softer and gentler. Expect him/me to be more open to making friends, hanging out, cracking jokes and the like. Not everything he says or does will be snarky or mean or antagonistic. That's still a big part of it of course. I AM still a virus!

It also means I'm completely open to people referring to me as Thorn, a virus, et cetera, or talking to me on here or chat applications "in-character," since I no longer have the hard line of separation between him and my online self. In fact, it's been pretty fun living my day-to-day internet life as Thorn, so I definitely look forward to interacting with more people this way.

Anyway that is all!
