I look forward to getting pwned owo *Goes off to research and make planz so she only comes in second to last*

TFW when you roll Riven in ARAM but your team has no poke ono

Elsa... *Burns you at the stake* Never come back here again >:c JK... Mostly Oh now that is a well thought out suggestion *Applauds* I'll add that to my list of things to try ^w^ And yes, I realize it could feel wrong again at some point in the future. But I've put a lot of thought into it and am fairly convinced Kyra isn't right. I can't speak for my future self, but I'm pretty sure she'll be happier with her name knowing she took the time to think it out and try on different things rather than just tossing on the first thing that seemed to fit okayish. Plus, I haven't legally done anything yet, so I still have the option to experiment. For all I know none of these could work out and I'll just land where I started, but at the very least I'll know I tried some stuff

Lizzie>Ellie, mostly because I can think of a very well known Ellie. Also I used to call Silver that and it still makes me thunk of her >_<

You know, I was kinda expecting you to say Elizabeth for some reason Though I forgot Lizzie was a thing, because that's why Elizabeth wasn't on that list. Double names are kewl

Ohai Jerry. Well, I kinda wish it would reference how soft I can be, even though outside that's not necessarily obvious. I also like names that have short versions (bonus points for short version ending a long E) Pretty and soft names are where I'm aiming And lastly, my favorite first letters for girl names go E>A>K>L>S, and %90 of my ideas start with one of those But honestly I'm already overanalyzing, so lemme just list off a few examples I'm considering so you have an idea of what I like Alexus/Lexi/Alex (short versions each have issues and I haven't picked which I'd use) Emmeryn (not Emma, ew, short version ideas are welcome, lol. Also, my favorite name of all time owo) Annabelle/Annie ("Belle" names are good, also *Indicates avi, siggy, and MC skin*)

Right this moment? But once that finishes playing I'll probs go spam Butterfly for a while (It's one of my two songs of the week, and I can't find a good video of the other)

TL;DR Okay, no, not really. I read the whole thing. And I just have to pick out one line: This is so insanely true

@Yash It's less personality and more person. Like you said, it should feel like mine. My current name choice is based on a superficial aspect of my personality, and that doesn't feel right to me anymore. Names are majorly important to me, and as great a name as Kyra is, it doesn't feel right anymore @Infel Yes, names are quite the struggle. Personally I've only gone over two (one of which was an attempt at picking something gender-neutral so I could be myself with my IRL friends, that wasn't smart >_>) But it is very nice to hear from someone who understands the struggle ^^ And while the internet is certainly easier to experiment with than real life, people also only have your name to go by. So changing your name is almost like becoming a different person (aside from that, it is a very good test platform and I fully intend to try some stuff out whether I think I'll be Kyra at the end of it or not)

...No I don't follow the pro scene at all. But I read up on the fantasy thing and it seems overly complicated. Thus, I am quite interested in participating

Exactly (You might want to read the first couple sentences of my profile)

Lol, you don't know the half of it. Legally I have to change my name no matter what, my given name is Benjamin. If I was given the name Kyra I would be more than happy with it. But since I'm being given the privilege of choice, I want to do it right EDIT: And yes, the fact that people will struggle with the change is one of the main reasons against it *indicates the OP* Also you're still Peanut Butter to me

So originally I was going to offhandedly mention this via the status bar, but imo it's a bit more major then four sentences. Also I can already hear people saying "just do whatever you want" and trust me, Ima do what I want no matter what you say, so just give me some honest opinions to help me realize what I want (even if everyone says "no that's terrible" it may still help me realize I do want to do it) So now onward to the issue itself. I've been thinking for a while of changing me name, as in not going by Kyra anymore, I'll get to why in a bit. This idea was further fueled by a dream I've been having recently, without going into detail: I'm asked my name, and Kyra doesn't come to mind (neither does my given name for that matter) and it got me thinking more. And then a certain someone talking about their own name recently brought all this to a head So I figure you're probably wondering why by this point. I mean, Kyra is a great name. It references darkness, I get to be Ame's cat, it goes great with Morgan (which is a perfect middle name), it starts with K (K is a great first letter for names, one of my favorites. Also goes well with my username), and just about everyone knows it by now (I probs get called Kyra more than my given name at this point) And to answer that, I'll have to go back to how I chose it See, originally, it wasn't even intended for me. I mean, I knew I might end up using it for myself at some point in the future if I decided to go through with living as a girl, but originally it was just the name for my character in Pokemon Y (Who is actually pronounced differently) Plus, it was kind of a rushed decision. I needed something, so I took the first thing that clicked. But it's kind of based in one of my more superficial aspects of who I am (darkness is certainly part of me, but it's mostly an outward thing and hardly reflects all of who I am) and honestly not even all that well thought out (along the way I also looked for names about being cold, snarky, or cynical...) So while I think it was right at the time, especially since I understood myself so little then, it just feels really hollow now. As a writer who heavily strains the importance of having her character's names reflect who they are, being given the choice to choose my own name is like absolutely massive and important and needs to be done right. Also Kyra is pretty much impossible to shorten and the only good nickname I've found for myself so far is Pinelope's "Kywy," which is a good play on words, but still not a shorter version of a longer name (names like that are defs my favorites) So yeh, that's my feelings on it. I think it's P obvious I'll be doing something, but I'd still like some feedback. Hell, I'll even take suggestions if you think you know me well enough to give them. I do have a few ideas myself that I like, though IDK how they'll feel on me (at least one was more intended for an impossible child...)

Okay, whew, two things: #1 I found the Articuno Shrine! Pleasepleaseplease don't try to use it. For one, ATM you would have insanely little chance to catch it. And for two, I found it and would kinda like to be the one to get the Articuno from it. P sure mods are okay with spawning more, but I'd really really love to get the legit one As a corollary to that, if anyone has an Orb free, I could use it. I can hunt for my own of course, but the sooner I start murdering the more likely I am to have a full orb in time for capturing bug fixes #2 My southward expedition has come to frutition! I have found a Desert at about 800, 18600. There is also Savanna, but unfortunately I didn't spot any Mesa If we have the ability, it might be good for mods to set up a warp, or the slightly less mod-reliant command blocks, at least until a closer one is discovered in a non-southern direction (which probably already happened and I just wasted six hours of my life reconnecting to the server so chunks would load >_<) But yes, for those of you searching for a yummy dessert, I has found it #3 (Did I say two? Whoops) Also, I am attempting to collect a full set of Hallowed Gems, currently I have: Bug Dark Electric Fire Ghost Grass (2) Ice Normal Water (2) I would be happy to trade my extra Grass and/or Water in return for any of the types I have yet to acquire

Yup, I did actually have that planned from the start like that ^w^ Elesa's job in the RP was originally going to be a lot of exposition via the Xtransceiver (which is the name I'll be using, even though it's more like a holocaster, because Xs are cool) And she'll probably stick pretty close to that. Dazzle's next chapter will probs be pretty slow too, then there'll probs be some more action

Thanks to Ryan, I've picked up ARAM again. I love playing Annie on this mode. Stunz, last hits with Q, and Tibbarz are all part of the pyromaniac little girl experience that I find insanely awesome (See what I did there? Also, Yi totally stole one of my kills near the end, so I stole one from him too owo Since you know, people care about KSing on ARAM)
