idk if youre still accepting asks about this whole thing, but...
i guess this whole situation is making me grieve the man i thought he was. kind of stupid to say it like that, probably, but now that this whole side of him is revealed pieces fit together differently and he's just a whole different puzzle. the last puzzle of him we knew was pretty, and this one isn't. but we can't put together that old one now without ignoring these new pieces.
i don't regret knowing or finding out, to be clear. i just mourn what i thought he was, because that was someone i liked, even if from afar. this is someone i wish i could still like but i don't remotely want to. i want to sweep the puzzle off the table and cry onto it because it's awful and horrid and i miss what i thought was true, but the pieces are glued down now. does that make any sense? im probably being too poetic about it.
i love shelby to death, though. she deserves the world and its love right now, and her puzzle still shines so so bright despite this, cheerful and soaked with sadness but okay. she needs the break shes getting. i hope she gets lots of hugs (if she likes them) and has an awesome break ❤
no no it's not stupid to say it like that. honestly the first night after shelby's stream, firesnap and I were dming and she pointed out that it felt as though we were going through the stages of grief and I agreed with her. it was grieving someone we thought we knew. because the person wilbur soot presented himself as was completely different from who he actually was.
it's okay, I get what you're saying. I'm also mourning the person I thought he was. we all are.
I am so so happy to see such an outpouring of love and support for shelby. they deserve it so much. they have taken such a brave step forward and now wilbur can't hide behind his public persona anymore. shelby was brave enough to bare her pain and I wish her nothing but the best moving forward
