Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Here's another one!

Here's another one!

*watches as CBers fall from the sky* Beautiful. 

Hullo everybuggy. I hung around here from January of 2016 to January 2017, going by the name The Novelist (I didn't understand how internet usernames worked back then) to just Novelist, and then finally Nova. To express my nostalgia as well as change, I decided to finally settle on the name Nov. I had one AE and one captcha pet while I was here, but I wasn't very invested that sort of stuff. I don't plan on bringing them back unless some masochistic soul gets on their knees and begs me.

I can't believe how quickly three years flew by and what has happened in that timeframe. I'm sixteen now, and I've been online more and met lots of different people. It made me grow drastically, and I changed for the better as well as the worst. I've also been questioning my identity as well as struggling with depression. I kind of abandoned writing and my new hobby (eh, more like euphoria) is gaming. I still love reading though, and I've finally decided that my favorite genre is science fiction.

But anyway, I can't wait to meet some oldies and newbies. Cheers to the famed 2019 Valentine's Day reunion!

*tips hat to the admins/mods* I hope you three are doing well too. Thank you for your service; you've kept this place a safe, warm community.

Hey! I’m not sure if you remember me, but I remember you!

I’m sorry about your depression, if there’s anything we can do to help . . . ?

*smirks* Pfft, who could forget you? *hugs*

Thanks for the offer, but this entire reunion and just being here and seeing you guys again has made me quite happy today. It's been the best Valentine's Day ever. 

I hope you're doing well!

hm....it be like that sometimes, l suppose.

Life has been good, l guess? Honestly nothing really exciting or major has happened in the last couple of years. l know l've *changed* but l always feel like l'm kinda stuck in the same place. l am generally where l thought l would be, doing mostly the same things with the same people. Is that kind of sad? l don't know. Things don't really seem to change here.

Hello Nov!! It's so lovely to see you again! I have some really vivid memories of you as The Novelist, and of course I've seen you a coupe of times on the chatroom, but it's great to have you back for a little while.

I, too, love science fiction! Have you read any Asimov? I adore him - I've read a bunch of his short stories and they're amazing. Who's your favorite author?

St. Owl! Hello. Yes, I have read Asimov. I read the Caves of Steel book, which was vaguely disappointing because I expected more !ystery and deduction, but I really like I, Robot. In fact, I was reading it but then I lost the book? I'm very annoyed with myself over that.

It's the Novelist! Welcome back! Wow, I missed you! How are you doing? I'm glad you still like reading. Have you read The Martian? You totally should. I love real science in my sci-fi. It's so good to see you!
