Happy birthday to the best series ever personal yappings down below: I can't believe that 5 years ago, I was sitting in-between some cabinets or on my couch, watching Grian's 3rd Life for the first time. I was scared, of course, because I was scared of Minecraft. I still am, truly. 3rd Life came at a rather important time for me. I was in 7th grade during covid, and the novelty of an extended spring break had worn off by this point. I was facing probably the worst birthday of my life, as well as failing my entire grade, not to mention unpacking my house from my earlier move. I was able to think about something other than Undertale AUs (I'd never played the game, but watched comic dubs on youtube) for once, and have something exciting and scary to look forward to. And then when I got into 8th grade and joined the fandom for real, I started writing. Mostly crappy, drawn-out storylines, but I loved it. I loved the characters that had been created. I drew it all in my notebooks and papers throughout high school. Thank you, Grian, for changing my life.
