Hi there!

I recently decided to try getting back into Sylestia! I've been gone for about a year now (some of you might remember seeing my name from time to time, but probably not, since I was never really active in the forums), but I've been on Sylestia since 2013. This means I've been kicking around here longer than like...half the species, and I'm rocking an ID number that's only 4 digits long.

Since only about...3 people on this site really know me, I think it best to tell y'all a few things about the absolutely adorable and extraordinarily eccentric 'Hirai'.

1: I'm terrified of initiating social interactions. I'm perfectly fine with anyone and everyone saying 'hello' to me, but I can never get myself to say Hi first. Feel free to speak with me anytime. I promise I'm a super nice person who's always willing to chat...even if I'm awkward sometimes?

2: I'm extremely childish and hyper. Unless I just got off work. It makes me grumpy. Work is evil. Ugh.

3: I use this username on multiple sites...so if you see another Hiraikoneko bouncing around in the vastness of the internet...chances are it might be me?

4: I love to write...maybe someday I'll post something in the writers' forum...or not. I dunno yet?

5: I simply adore Luporas. They're wonderful. And Ryori's too.

6: I'm willing to breed just about all my pets, so just lemme know if there's one you want to breed with.

And...ah...yeah. That's about it. just thought I'd announce my return, try to be social and hopefully I'll stick around this time, eh?

Welcome back! I've never seen you before, I'm a five-digit, but hey, why not say hi to another "adult" of the website?

Hey! Thanks for the welcome back! I'm not surprised you've never seen me....as I said, I was never active on the forums back then. Hopefully that'll change this time around.

Welcome back! Even if I don't know you ^u^;;

Seeing you like lups I guess you're looking forwards to the lupora revamp then :p

Thanks! I'm actually not 100% sure how I feel about the revamp. I mean, I've spent years loving the lups as they are now (I have long considered them perfection) and I'm not sure I like the new sketches for them?

I feel like they aren't as proud and fierce as the originals? I mean, I'm sure the revamp will be amazing. And I love the way they've made the manes flow nicely and a little more naturally rather than being all spiky like before, and I'm sure the revamp will add more details to the shading...

I'm just not sure which I prefer better at this point. It'll have to wait until the revamp is completed?

Yeah same, I like the expressions on the lups right now, however, the sketches are just sketches and we'll have to see what the artists come up for as the final
