So hey, I know I've been fairly inactive lately, but I've been thinking about different things I'd like to do, one in particular I will discuss in this journal.
But before I do, I wanted it to be known that I have a tumblr page (jiratenathereenagahd) where I plan on posting artwork among other things, as well as a blog for my parody character Bitl, where she posts some strange and off-putting things she finds on the internet to discuss. She is very harsh, but it's part of her character, and whatever she may do doesn't necessarily reflect my own views.
Check it out if you like smartass commentary.
Anyways, I want to make one last contribution to Bionicle, and that is a re-telling of the 2001 story arc, the very beginning of the Bionicle series. I'd rather not give a lot of details regarding this, but I will disclose some important points: 1. I want to write this in a cinematic style. I feel like Bionicle could work extremely well as a modern movie, despite the chances of such a thing being far too slim. The Ghost animations conveyed the universe well, and that is the tone I wish for this reboot to take. 2. I plan on completing this story by 2020. That's a good long while from now, yes, but I want this to be good. I want this to be a labor of love that I can be satisfied in releasing as my goodbye to the fiction. Why that year? Well, it's going to be Bionicle's 20th anniversary. That's perfect. I grew up with Bionicle, and it followed me throughout my life up to this moment. I want to do it justice. It helped introduce so many things to me in my early years. Mechanisms, creativity, heroes, corruption, sacrifice, redemption, and, for the very first time, I felt a connection with a fictional character. All because Lego took a chance. A great chance. It wasn't perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but it was damn good. In a way, maybe it's for the best it's not around again. I'd rather retain my warmest memories of a great series than become jaded with it turning into something lackluster.
This story will be a tribute to everything Bionicle gave me, everything it helped me overcome, everything that helped make me the person I am today. It was a huge part of me, one that tears me to let go of. But the time comes to move on.
Years from now, I'd like to look back at the story I create and smile.
To be content with my final foray into the world of Bionicle.
That got really sappy, and I apologize for that. But I am very excited to make something great, as a thank you to the Bionicle series.
But yeah, sorry about the wall of text. I hope this year brings happiness to all, and I hope my content is enjoyable for everyone who's stayed with me all this time.
And... thank you for that. Thank you all so much.

Bad news
So... About my Bionicle story, It's definitely still happening, but due to lack of time and personal issues I unfortunately can't guarantee it will be finished by the end of August like I intended. I am still working on it, and will do my best to get it done soon. So sorry again...
GAH I'M SORRY
I didn't mean to die again, I just don't have much time to post ;-; so so sorry
love you guys
Got a job
I'm starting tomorrow! ^^
So sorry for not being on as much as I have in the past, school has taken up most of my time
Thank you all for everything
Thinking
Hey guys, so I was messing around today and made a new MOC that I would like to have as my new self-MOC. Now, the problem here is that it would change many things, maybe even a name change. Do you think you all would want that to happen? Jira (my current self-MOC) either way will be part of a reviewing channel on YouTube, so he won't be gone.
And if you're against this proposed rebranding of myself, I'll limit Leon to his own story.
Please let me know what you'd like :)
