A big hello to all Miners and Crafters!
Holy wabbits, it feels like its been ages- Through I apparently joined in 2016, which isn't all that far away, I think.
I'm very happy to make my return! My name is Oricorio but feel free to shorten up that to Ori to spare some time.
I will probably focus on breeding pets with high stats, at least that's in the plan. But knowing me, I will go on a pet-shopping spree fast enough and get my only stable filled to the br- Oh, nevermind. It happened just now.
I'm overjoyed that I had a bunch of stale chocolate-coins and melted snowflakes when I returned, so I was able to make my start just a little bit easier.
To just give you a general idea of what a glittering garbage bag I am, I spend most of my time reading Fanfics.
No joke, AO3 is basically my second home, even though that I myself am just a Roleplayer and writer only in the theoretical of theories.
I subscribe to a bunch of Fandoms, mostly cartoons- Steven Universe, Voltron (Unfortunately. *Glares at Season 7*), She-Ra: Princesses of Power, Dear Evan Hansen, Subnautica... My brain is scattered all over the place nowadays, so I have a hard time naming more, sorry.
Oh, I'm also a Bunny Parent? I have a French Lop named Valdemar. His age is unfortunately unknown, as my uncle saved him from a wild after an illegal breeder released him and a bunch of others. He suffers from something that I would call Bun-PTSD. Due to his previous life and also the horrible care he received from my older sister, he isn't cuddliest of the bunch.
But through hard work and respect, we build an mutual trust. We are not quite there yet but he lets others touch him and he doesn't bite anymore, which is something that would be impossible just a year ago.
I would share a picture of him here but unfortunately, I do not have any that is of actual quality so i will just put another bunny-related thing there instead.
Just to throw some more information here: I'm not a native English speaker. My first language is Czech and I come from, you guessed it, Czech Republic. So apologies for errors there and there.
Next year, I will be attending High School and hopefully, become a full-fledged Gardener in the next three years! From a young age, I wanted to primary work with animals but sadly, my grades from math and Czech simply aren't good enough. And with Graduation Exams from Math now being compulsory... Yeah, not going to do that.
I'm Asexual and Aromantic and not to fulfill the stereotype but I do actually own a small number of cacti and succulents.
And... that's all that comes to mind now really. Hopefully, you will be seeing me around here quite often from now on! Thank you for taking a time out of your day to read this! Now, go grab something to drink and after that, you will be legally allowed to watch the video below.

Greetings and welcome back! There have been a few changes since youve been gone. A couple pets, lups and lunes for example, have gotten makeovers and are now significantly prettier. The infamous MegaZone that was constantly in production has now been released. Its called The Lost Grove now (LG for short) and can be accessed at the end of the current wuestline. Its a 60+ area and the battles are significantly more difficult than the rest of the site. Even veteran battlers found themselves wiping out while fighting a simple sprite. The level cap increased and is now currently 70. Theres been more armor released to match this change as well.
Unfortunately we just finished the fall fest and the Black Friday sale so you may have to wait a bit until the next fest but the advent calendar is currently up and theres a forum contest running to make themes for the next winter fest.
Also, hello fellow fanfic-trash. Im not sure if we share many fandoms (I am generally more in the anime category but I do have some overlaps) but its always nice to see a like mind.

I had a feeling those lovely moths are unfamiliar! Glad to hear it wasn't my brain just springing a leak. All the revamps are absolutely stunning, I find myself especially be fond of Ny'vernes.
Wowsers, Megazone is done? I can't believe time manages to sometimes pass soo fast when you aren't looking. But hearing that story is finished... It's kind of sad, really. I am pretty much at the mere beginning so I still have a lot to do but its blue none the less.
No big problem- Advent Calendar is my favorite event anyways for obvious reasons!
Plus, at least that gives me time to train a lot and get on my both feet once the festivals roll around again.
Maybe we will pass each other one day on AO3! Anime is not really my cup of tea anymore, but Fairy Tail and Naruto will always have an important place in my heart and I will most likely keep coming back to them till the day I perish.
The feeling is mutual! At the end of the days, we are the birds of the same animated feathers.

Hello and welcome back!

Also... fanfics are life xd

@Christinewhogaming
Thank you!
I wasn't actually even familiar with the term- I suspected it was Minecraft related through, that's probably given.
I did some Googling and i don't think I actually ever seen that! I'm no longer that much in touch with Minecraft Youtube Community, so I suppose its understandable.
But my love for Minecraft remains! It will be the first game I buy, once I will be able to afford a new computer which will hopefully be able to run it smoothly.
Apologies if i disappointed you in any way!
@Espenfalls
Thanks!
Maybe its because i adore both Connie and Steven too much or maybe that's just my slight romance repulsion kicking in but in my opinion, it would be... Weird?
After years of Female Characters being treated as solely Love Interests and not a character on their own probably clouded my mind just a little.
Also, the thing about characters of opposite genders always ending up being a couple, that puts money in pockets of those who believe Women and Men can't be friends- Yeah. Slightly uncomfortable.
But I believe in Crewniverse, if someone is able to pull it off then it's them.
I see them as wonderful friends- It probably wouldn't work out right now with all the stuff going on but maybe in future? We have to see. Rebecca and her team always have some aces in their sleeve!

The moths are the best. Take a look at their baby forms, too. They are the cutest thing ever! I want all of them. O_O
Technically, the MegaZone itself is being released in parts. The first zone is up and done so now were waiting for the release of zone 2. I think we may have completed the community tasks a bit faster than krin anticipated. Oops? Honestly its probably more because we just had several fests in quick succession. Summer fest was really late so we just had those plus Black Friday with almost no break in between. It has been mad.
Ah yes, Naruto fan fiction. I honestly hold a fair amount of hatred for the series itself (for various reasons) but have been known to still read lots of Naruto fan fiction. The fans all know exactly what went wrong in the show and they fix it with fan fiction!
