I'm done.

A lot of things recently, especially with other moderators, have been rubbing me the wrong way. It's making the RP unfun. I've also just been struggling with writer's block anyway.

I'm grateful to the moderators for letting me be a part of their team, but I can't deny the fact that I'm not happy with how they're handling certain things, and the RP hasn't been fun for me for a while.

I loved this community, so it sucks to leave, but I hope I'll see you all again sometime.

See you around.

Making My Way Downtown

I walk down the streets of New York City, waving enthusiastically at anyone I see.

Hii! I wave at a man who looks at me funny

Hey there! I wave at a woman carrying bags from an expensive clothes store

Oh! I run up to a couple pushing a stroller Hi, little baby!

I continue on my way after cooing at the infant for a little bit. Today is gonna be a good day!

Flying Purple Planet Eater

I lay on the surface of the moon, staring out at the stars. Tippy Toe is with me. A long time ago, Galactus gave us the ability to breathe and exist in space.

Speaking of...

"DOREEN GREEN OF EARTH. YOU HAVE SUMMONED THE GREAT DEVOURER OF WORLDS TO THIS, OUR COMMON MEETING PLACE, EARTH'S MOON. WHAT DO YOU NEED OF ME, THE MIGHTY GALACTUS?"

Oh, hey, Gal! I was wondering when you'd get here! I just wanted to chat a bit. Tell you about stuff that's been happening recently. Specifically the fact that I'm engaged!

"THIS IS GREAT NEWS, DOREEN! WHO IS YOUR BETROTHED?"

Gwenpool! She's the best!

"AH, YES! GWENDOLYN POOLE! YOU HAVE MENTIONED HER BEFORE! SHE AIDED YOU THE LAST TIME YOU FOUND A PLANET TO SATIATE MY HUNGER, DID SHE NOT?"

Yup! I proposed to her a little bit ago! I know you gotta deal with your hunger most of the time, and we don't really got a date for it yet, but I was wondering if you'd wanna come!

"LET ME KNOW WHEN THE WEDDING HAPPENS, AND I WILL BE IN ATTENDANCE IN MY HUMAN FORM. I WOULDN'T MISS IT FOR THE GREATEST TASTING PLANET IN THE UNIVERSE!"

Aww! You're so sweet, Gal! I'll let you know when we figure out a date and time!

"IS THAT ALL YOU WISHED TO DISCUSS, DOREEN? I MUST TRY TO FIND MY NEXT MEAL SOON."

Yeah, I think that's it for now. It's good seeing you!

"IT IS ALWAYS A PLEASURE TO SEE YOU AS WELL, DOREEN. I WILL LEAVE NOW BEFORE YOUR PLANET STARTS LOOKING TOO DELICIOUS TO RESIST."

Bye, Galactus!

I head off to see if The Inhumans or The Watcher will take me back to Earth, as I crash landed in an Avengers space pod

Inactivity Updates

Hello, everyone! We in the mod team have discussed some changes and better definition of our inactivity rules. We still hold that those who have been inactive for 14 days will lose their claim and the character will be open for someone else to take. However, we have also decided that, if you have a reason for being inactive, you can modmail us and request a one-week extension.

You are not required to give your reasoning. That will never be necessary. However, if you know you will be inactive for more than 2 weeks, we will allow you a one-week extension if you bring it to us in modmail.

Once that extension has been run out, it will act the same as if you had been inactive for 2 week, you will lose your claim.

If we notice anyone using these extensions often, we will not allow them to that person anymore, as that will be seen as abusing the system. These extensions should be used sparingly when the need arises, and not in a way that allows someone to hold onto a claim indefinitely with very little activity.

If you do modmail us with this request, and someone else attempts to claim your character, we will let them know you have issued an extension and will then attempt to contact you. If you don't respond within the remaining time of your extension, or you do respond and let us know you will be unable to return, then we will allow the other player to take the claim.

Also: Reminder for those this is aplicable to: This only goes for official Marvel characters, not OCs. We doubt very many people other than you would want to play your OC.

Talk first. Kick butts later.

I know I'm not an X-Man. I don't really do much over here aside from Squirrel Club. I'm much more comfortable with The Avengers.

What I am, however, is a mutant. I know the problems our people face. I've seen it. I was on Genosha when it got attacked a few months ago. I saw the terror in the eyes of everyone present.

I've almost always been the type to try and talk it out first and only kick butts when the talking goes sour. I've made friends with cosmic devourers, chaos deities, hero hunters, and my own amalgam clone daughter who said she was going to eat me.

I'm not saying we should be pacifists. I won't ever tell you that. Pacifism can get you a long way, but when you gotta fight, you gotta fight. That's the same idea Emma Frost is putting out.

Emma and I don't always see eye to eye on things, but this time we do. We need to make sure we talk stuff out before we act. If we just go head-first into a battle that could've ended before it began, then we're doing a disservice to ourselves. I don't want people, especially the kids at this school, to possibly die because they decided that talk was cheap.

Communication is one of the most important things in this world. I hope everyone can recognize that.

That's why I'm on The White Queen's side. And why you should be too.

... And I live in a tree!

I guess 2/4ths of the song are right. Well, kinda, my treehouse is more of just a superhero base.

[Happy birthday, Doreen!]

Aww, thanks, Tipp!

I give my best friend a big hug, or at least as big a hug as I can give a squirrel, and start heading to make breakfast.

Alrighty! What do we got going on today? I gotta go see Gwenny at some point for sure! Hopefully the bad guys go a bit easy on me today, but I'm not gonna hold my breath...

As I ponder my birthday agenda, I get a call on the phone. It's from the number labelled "Mama" in my contacts.

"Hey, baby squirrel! Happy birthday!" I hear the voice of both of my parents come over the phone.

Aww! Thanks, Mom and Dad!

"Oh, of course, sweetie!" My mom replies.

"Are you doing ok, Pumpkin?" My dad asks.

Yeah! I'm doing great! I'm gonna be trying to take it somewhat easy today, but you know how superhero work goes.

"Aww, just don't push yourself too hard if you don't have to, baby squirrel!"

Don't worry, Mom, I don't plan to!

"We wish we could be there to see you today, Pumpkin, but the airport got destroyed in the attacks. They seem to be rebuilding pretty fast though, so that's good!"

Aww, that's alright, dad! I'll see you next year!

"Yes you will! You'll see us sooner than that too! We'll be heading for another airport if we have to!"

"Oh, we love you so so much, Doreen! We gotta go, but we wanted to make sure we called to wish you a happy birthday!"

Ok! Thanks, Mom! Thanks, Dad!

"Byyyyyyeeee!!!"

Byyyyyeeeee!!!

I hang up the phone and eat breakfast. Today's gonna be a good day!

(Ooc: Interactable. Squirrel Girl's birthday is supposed to be in July, and while it's usually listed as July 1st on fanon websites, that's mostly because there isn't a definitive date for it. I decided that was a little boring and went with today not only because it's a bit more interesting than just saying "It's July 1st" and calling it a day, but also because today would've been my IRL father's b-day, so I wanted to honor his memory a bit in this way)

No no no no no no no!

I grab my phone after seeing the news and go to my contacts, calling the number that says "Dad"

C'mon! Pick up! Please!

The tone rings for a few moments. The anxiety and desperation welling in my stomach, turning into knots. I want to throw up with every second that passes.

Please...

Finally, someone picks up.

"Hello?"

Dad! Where are you, are you and mom safe? Please tell me you're ok!

"Woah! We're ok, Baby Squirrel. We were lucky enough to be outta town when... Well..."

Oh my gosh! Thank goodness! I'm so glad you guys are safe!

"Are you ok, Baby Squirrel? You sound stressed."

I... When I saw LA had been destroyed... I... I thought I lost you guys...

"Aww, sweetie... We're still here. We'll have to find somewhere else to live, but we're ok."

Ok... I love you.

"I love you too, sweetie. Are you gonna be ok?"

Y-yeah... I'll be fine...

"Ok. If you're sure. We should probably go figure out what we're gonna do about living arrangements."

Y-yeah... Sorry... I'll let you go now...

"You sure, sweetheart?"

I'm sure... See you later, Dad... I love you.

"Love you too, Baby Squirrel."

He hangs up, and I begin to cry.

Tippy Toe comes over to check on me.

[You ok, Doreen?]

I... No... Not really, Tipp...

[Do you wanna talk about it?]

I... I've never been this scared before... Not even when I'm fighting bad guys... I'm the Unbeatable Squirrel Girl... But for a bit there... I felt like just a lost little girl...

[You thought your parents might have died. I feel like that's a normal reaction.]

I know, Tipp... It's just...

I pause for a moment, choking on tears.

Why did this happen? Who did this? I...

[I'm sure we'll figure it out, Doreen. Right now, just let it all out. I'm here for you.]

Thanks, Tipp.

I pull my best friend in for a hug, as I begin to sob.

Taking my daughter to meet her future step-mom!

Gwenny! There's someone I want you to meet!

(Ooc: yes, I posted this before, I just realized I got Gwen's title wrong, since I said "mother-in-law" instead of "step-mother" my bad. Now it's fixed)

I am struggling with writer's block and will be dropping Ratatoskr and Reed Richards.

My 2 alt accounts, u/SquirrelOfYggdrasil and u/FatherOfTheFuture61 will be inactive for the foreseeable future because I've been really struggling to figure out what I should do with them currently. I've also been struggling with Squirrel Girl, tbh, but I feel like dropping down to 1 character will be a lot easier to get over writer's block with. If no one takes Ratatoskr or Reed, then I may pick them back up in the future (Which is why I'm not deleting the accounts), but for all intents and purposes, they are open for anyone to take. I hope I can make a post or two as Squirrel Girl soon and get out of this funk, but with how stressful work has been lately, I'm not sure I'll be able to. Maybe I should just take a full break from the sub, but it feels like I've already kinda been doing that. I really hope this writer's block goes away soon.

I finally got all the parts for my custom Lego Squirrel Girl!

(I know there's a Lego squirrel tail for minifigs, but I preferred this one. Plus, I couldn't find the squirrel tail in a color I liked)
