Hey y'all. It's been a long time. I'm going to keep it brief... as brief as I can, anyway, lmfao.

These have been a busy few years! Moved twice, been doing freelance full-time for a long while... Got back into D&D for the first time in years! Admittedly, though, things got really not good for me at around the end of 2017, going into 2018, and it hasn't really let up since. Most recently, though I'm sorry to overshare a little, in September of this past year, my little sister was nearly murdered and then I lost my dad to Covid just a couple of weeks later, and that whole series of events just sort of laid me out in all ways that it could lay me out.

Despite all of the stress, though, and the mourning, I'm still alive! Barely, but it counts, haha.

I have a lot of fond memories tied up to this account, but a lot of very not good memories, too, and so to that end, I'm finally letting this account go, starting clean, and moving accounts. Or, rather, I've already moved accounts--I've just not uploaded anything or made an announcement here. I debated making this journal and letting this account just decay in peace, but I figured if there's even one person who got curious or worried about where I've been these past... [checks notes] three to four years, I may as well make the post.

The new account can be found at  RedRosesRot.

Frankly, I'm not sure how often I'll post on the new account, but I've got it set up for the day I get the inspiration to post again, all nice and pretty and waiting. I'm mostly on twitter nowadays, though with everything that's happened and where my mental health is at, I'm barely there too. Still, if you're curious, my main twitter is CaariOsamu, and my art twitter is RedRosesRot. I have a Discord server where I host my art, too, and I may be willing to give the link to those who ask, but I may also log out of here and forget to check back in for another three years, so sorry in advanced!

I hope you all have had a peaceful few years, as best as you can have in the current circumstances, and I hope you continue to have happy, peaceful lives. Even if you're really confused rn about who tf is in your notifs, or even if we've had bad blood in the past--most especially, I wish you well on your journeys.

Love always,
Carro
