Hello friends! :D It's your girl Tiny, radioing in from her spot at the dining table, tippy-tapping at her laptop. You may be able to tell what is coming by the nature of this message, but please, read comfortably! No stress, please. To make things clear, I am not leaving Scratch, nor TFCRP. It has been a long time coming, months overdue, for me and Badgerstar to step down from Riverclan's leader responsibilities. I know you have all been able to tell how poorly I've been managing the clan. This is entirely due to me not having enough time in real life, and not because of any lack of care. In summary, I no longer have the time to responsibly care for Riverclan as you all deserve, so I will be roleplaying Badgerstar stepping down from his leadership position in the near future. You may continue reading if you would like, but that is the gist of it. -Why are you stepping down? It's been pretty wild with TFCRP this past 6 months+. I am an upperclassman in high school, and my life is jam-packed with projects, commitments, and the like. I can't keep up with the weekly ceremonies, regular activity checks, character additions and updates, etc. like I used to be able to. The point of being in the leadership position is to be able to provide for the roleplayers/characters, and I am not doing so effectively. As self-righteous as it sounds, I do not think it is fair for Riverclan, especially for the amazing group of people it is. -What will happen to Badgerstar? Ah, yes, the old man. I love him so dearly ahhh <3 Badgerstar my beloved. Badgerstar will likely physically endure something that makes him realize he is no longer fit to lead (this may involve loss of life). He will then formally retire in the presence of Starclan, returning all of his lives but one. Blazingwing will become the new leader, and Badger/strike/ will become an elder. (Woah, it's been a long time since I've heard that name o_o) I will be actively roleplaying this to give him a proper leader send-off. -Will you still be a part of TFCRP? Probably not when it comes to characters! Badgerstar would in fact then be my one and only character, but I'm okay with that. I will probably still help around Riverclan, and I am not stepping down from being an admin. And, I think I'll be sticking around on Scratch for a long while, so I'm always here to babble away! ;) -What do you have to say for yourself, Tiny??? >:0 (but less angry) I'd like to genuinely apologize to Riverclan for dragging this on so long. I have been thinking about this for months and months, and I've always thought "after this thing happens," but it never happened. As a result, management in Riverclan was delayed, ignored, done poorly. Please don't take this as a self-deprecating thing! However, I am glad to bring this to a close. Again, I am sorry, Riverclan, for taking forever, I am grateful for what you've been for me, and I still love you all, my little gremlins! -Closing Statements: *Thank you Riverclan and TFCRP. (I don't want to sound sappy ahhh help me) You've shaped a huge, special part of my childhood, and I'll never forget the experience! *Thank you to my right hand buddies, and . You two are the real champs, and I don't know how you dealt with me for this long. *I wish I could list everyone else here, but I might run out of room and time before I have to return to my AP homework. So, for now, thank you , for truly defining my experience. Then there's the people who've been here forever, like Dawn, Blossom, Sakura, and Haven. I wish we could have rped more! *Thank you to my fellow TFCRP council! I'm happy to be staying as an admin, but thank you for the leadership opportunity that came even before that. *I'd like to take a moment to honor Badgerstar's many nicknames: Badgie, Boomerstar, Bagelstar, Barbiestar, BigBadBadgerstar, Waddlestar, Giraffestar +probably more It's been a good 2.5+ years with my Badgie-boi! He'll be around for a bit longer as an elder before I'm ready to really say goodbye to him. Riverclan will be in such great hands/paws, with Ray and Blazingwing. Wow, Blazing/star/ is becoming reality soon, that name is FIREEE. The motions of my plan with Badgerstar will go forward in the very near future. For now, please bear with me a little longer! Thank you so much for reading! <3 -Tiny P.S. Thank you to all the artists! Most of these projects are in my favorites, so you can find them there ^~^ By the way, I'd like to share these animation beauties I found while compiling images
