HELLLOOOOO CONFETTIGUTS BLOG READERS!!! IF YOU EVEN EXIST AT ALL!!!!
I HAVE NO CLUE... YOU SHOULD TELL ME BY MAKING A SWELL REFERENCE IN
MY CBOX, OR SOMETHING.
OOOOOOOGH YEAH SORRY FOR NOT WRITING THIS SOONER...!!!! WE HAD A VERY
SCARY WEEKEND WHICH I WON'T GO INTO DETAIL ABOUT BECAUSE IT'S OVER AND
I'M SAFE!!! SOO YEAG!!!!! TODAY'S BLOGPOST IS A HYPERFIXATION RAMBLE
AND BOY... *RUBS MY STRANGE HANDS TOGETHER*
SO ME AND ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS WHO I'LL BE REFERRING TO AS ARROW BOTH
GREW UP ON TOONTOWN (I THINK THEY JOINED BEFORE ME... I JOINED LIKE. A YEAR BEFORE THE
ORIGINAL WAS SHUT DOWN. UNFORTUNATE FOR ME.. MY POOR ACCOUNT THAT THE USERNAME OF HAD SMTH
LADYBUG IN IT... GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN...). AS MENTIONED IN THE PARENTHESES, WE PLAYED
BOTH THE ORIGINAL AND ONE OF THE REBOOTS/PRIVATE SERVERS. I REMEMBER REALLY REALLY ENJOYING
IT AND IT WAS ONE OF MY FIRST INTRODUCTIONS TO BOTH VIRTUAL WORLDS FOR KIDS AND MMORPG GAMES.
ME AND ARROW HAVE KNOWN EACHOTHER FOR... ALMOST. ALMOST 7 YEARS NOW. THAT'S PRETTY CRAZY.
I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M JUST REALIZING THIS NOW. MAYBE A LITTLE LESS BECAUSE WE REALLY ONLY
STARTED ACTUALLY SPEAKING TO EACHOTHER IN 2018 THANKS TO A MUTUAL ABUSER WHO IS NOW
OUT OF BOTH OF OUR LIVES. HOORAY!
ANYWAYS I'M GOING ON TANGENTS AGAIN. I'M NOT THE NEATEST WRITER, YOU'VE PROBABLY INFERRED.
WE PLAYED TOONTOWN REWRITTEN PRETTY OFTEN WITH SAID ABUSER IN 2018-2019 BUT THERE WAS A PRETTY
RELATIVE AND NOTICABLE PAUSE THROUGHOUT 2020 DUE TO OUR INTEREST JUST KIND OF FLICKERING OUT
FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS. REASON #1 BEING THAT ABUSER DID NOT LIKE THE GAME SUDDENLY AND WE
FELT THE NEED TO IMPRESS THEM. TOXIC RELATIONSHIPS ARE LOVELY AREN'T THEY
SO FASTFORWARD THROUGH ALLLLLL THOSE SHENANIGANS AND WE ARRIVE IN 2021: THE YEAR ME AND
ARROW DECIDE TO PICK THIS COMICAL GAME BACK UP. WE DECIDE TO START COMPLETELY OVER FROM
THE BEGINNING BECAUSE WE HAD NO IDEA WHAT THE FUCK WE WERE DOING OR WHERE WE LEFT OFF STORY
WISE AND CREATED TWO CHARACTERS: ORION THE DOG AND ASPEN DUCK (THIS
IS IMPORTANT LATER)
WE PLAYED PRETTY CONSISTANTLY FOR A WHILE BUT THEN THE INTEREST FLICKERED AGAIN BECAUSE. WOW.
THIS GAME CAN GET REALLY FUCKING BORING SOMETIMES. ITS KILL GUYS. KILL MORE GUYS. TALK TO A
GUY. TALK TO ANOTHER GUY. GO KILL ANOTHER GUY. FIGHT BOSS. PLUS HOLY SHIT WHY ARE SOME OF THE
STREETS SO FUCKING CONFUSING WE WERE LOSING OUR DAMN MINDS. WE DEFINITELY GRAVITATED TOWARDS
THE EVENTS AND TROLLEY GAMES INSTEAD OF. ACTUALLY DOING THE TASKS AND PLAYING THE GAME. WHICH
I WON'T SAY WASN'T ENTERTAINING, I DO LOVE THE TROLLEY GAMES EVEN THOUGH ME AND ARROW GET INTO SCREAMING
MATCHES WITH EACH OTHER OVER THEM. IT'S IN A SILLY FUNNY WAY THOUGH
BUT ON THE DAY WE STARTED PLAYING AGAIN (THIS IS THE IMPORTANT LATER), SINCE WE HAD GIVEN BOTH OUR
TOONS CUSTOM NAMES, THEY HAD TO BE ACCEPTED BEFORE WE COULD USE THEM. PERFECTLY REASONABLE MODERATION
SYSTEM. BUT, AS A RESULT... BOTH OUR PCS WERE GIVEN PLACEHOLDER NAMES; ROYAL BLUE DOG AND TEAL DUCK, ME
AND ARROW RESPECTIVELY. AND. I DON'T KNOW HOW. BUT WE ENDED UP GETTING ATTATCHED TO THE PLACEHOLDER NAMES.
WE DID NOT CALL THEM ORION OR ASPEN THEY'RE ROYAL BLUE DOG AND TEAL DUCK IT JUST FEELS WRONG
DESPITE OUR WAVERING MOTIVATION TO ACTUALLY PLAY THE GAME IN A STORY SENSE, WE ALSO BECAME REALLLY ATTATCHED
TO ROYAL BLUE DOG AND TEAL DUCK AS CHARACTERS. WE WERE ACTUALLY JUST DISCUSSING THIS LIKE TWO DAYS AGO LIKE
HOW WE BOTH FEEL THAT ROYAL BLUE DOG AND TEAL DUCK AREN'T US IN GAME BUT ARE COMPLETELY SEPERATE PROTAGANISTS
LIKE NESS MOTHER OR KRIS DELTARUNE. DESPITE BEING SILENT PROTAGONISTS THAT ARE MEANT TO INSERT THE PLAYER INTO
THE GAME THEY HAVE SO MUCH PERSONALITY JUST IN THEIR EXISTANCE AND WITH WHAT WE'VE PROJECTED ONTO THEM BOTH.
(THIS IS IMPORTANT LATER LATER)
OKAY, INCREDIBLY LONG WINDED WIND UP OVER... FASTFORWARD TO... *CARTOONISHLY CHECKS WATCH* THIS YEAR.
TOONTOWN SUDDENLY SEEMS TO BE MANIFESTING ITSELF IN MY LIFE IN A STRANGE AMOUNT OF WAYS. AND IT MAKES ME THINK
A LOT ABOUT IT, NATURALLY!!! SPECIFICALLY I WAS WONDERING ABOUT ONE OF THE THREE BIG REMADE PRIVATE SERVERS WHICH
I KNEW I'D SEEN BUT I HADN'T LOOKED INTO BEFORE. THIS ENDED UP BEING CORPORATE CLASH. AS MENTIONED EARLIER, ME AND ARROW
ONLY EVER PLAYED THE ORIGINAL GAME AND REWRITTEN, WHICH ARE BOTH PRETTY MUCH UTTERLY THE SAME IN ALMOST EVERY WAY. THIS WAS
COMPLETELY UNCHARTED TERRITORY FOR US BOTH. BUT I WAS DEFINITELY VERY CURIOUS.
MY FIRST EXPOSURE TO CORPORATE CLASH I CANNOT REMEMBER WELL BUT I REMEMBER VERY SPECIFICALLY IT WAS MULTISLACKER (ONE OF THE
UNIQUE ORIGINAL CHARACTERS SPECIFICALLY UNIQUE TO CC). I REMEMBER SEEING HIM AND JUST THINKING HE WAS THE ABSOLUTE SILLIEST
MOST FELLER DESIGN TO EVER EXIST AND WAS LIKE IMMEDIATELY CAPTIVATED BUT BECAUSE I'M AN IDIOT I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT HE WAS
ONLY IN CC AND JUST ASSUMED I'D MISSED HIM IN THE ORIGINAL GAME OR SOMETHING. I DIDN'T GET VERY FAR, SO... ACTUALLY AS I'M WRITING THIS I REMEMBER THAT I SAW HIM IN A YOUTUBE
VIDEO IN MY RECCOMENDED. I THINK IT WAS OF HIS BOSS BATTLE??? I'M NOT SURE
BUTBUTBUTBUTBUT OKAY NOW WE COME TO ABOUT A WEEK AGO NOW. I'VE BEEN SEEING CORPORATE CLASH LIKE EVERYWHERE AND ONLY JUST RECENTLY
FIGURED OUT WHAT THE HELL IT EVEN WAS BUT I REMEMBER SPECIFICALLY BEING VERY BORED ONE NIGHT AND DECIDING TO MESSAGE ARROW AND ASK
THEM IF THEY WANNA IMPULSIVELY START PLAYING THIS OTHER REMAKE WITH ME. AND THEY SAID YES BECAUSE WHY THE HELL NOT IT'S FUCKING
TOONTOWN HAS IT EVER DISAPPOINTED US BEFORE. SO WE BOTH HOP ON VC AND, NATURALLY, (THIS IS THE IMPORTANT LATER LATER) THE TWO
TOONS WE MAKE ARE ROYAL BLUE DOG AND TEAL DUCK. THEY RETURN JUST AS THEY EXISTED PREVIOUSLY AND THIS TIME THEY'RE WEARING THE SHIRTS EERILY
SIMILIAR TO BOTH MAIN CHARACTERS FROM A SPECIFIC NOTORIOUS RPG INDIE GAME. HERE'S SOME IMAGES OF THEM BECAUSE I KNOW YOU'RE ITCHING TO KNOW WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE.
WE'RE CURRENTLY STUCK ON LAND ACQUISITION ARCHITECT BUT WE'VE ALSO ONLY ATTEMPTED THE FIGHT ONCE. MAYBE EXPECT ANOTHER BLOG POST WHEN THAT HAPPENS???
THERE'LL DEFINITELY BE ANOTHER TOONTOWNCC BLOGPOST AT SOME POINT AS I AM HYPERFIXATING EHEHEKE. I REALLY REALLY ADORE ALL OF THE NEW COGS THEY'VE ADDED
AND DESIGNED THEMSELVES AND I HAVE TAKEN A PARTICULAR LIKING TO CHIP REVVINGTON HE IS MY WIFE.
THAT'S ALL FOR NOW !
