User blog:HoloArc/Farewell My Fairytail Family

Ello Y'all, HoloArc has entered the stage, most likely for the last time. As I am sure that many of you know already, my time here on Fairy Tail has been running out, and it has now reached the point where I feel that I have accomplished what I wanted to accomplish and more. As of now, I've been around for more than 2,5 years, and I will punch any fool who would dare tell me that the time was wasted. 2 and a half years of wonders and delight. Not everything has been sunshine and rainbows of course, but as a whole, I don't regret as much as a single second here. Thanks to this site, but more importantly, thanks to all of you, I've managed to develop, not only in my fantasy and writing, but as a person, and I have a lot of you to thank for it. Just as an additional mention I want to say that if you have any interest in any of the crap I've written these past few years, contact me if you would be interested in adopting them.

Now, I don't want to drag this on too much, so I'll make mention to those whom have stood out to me most during the years. Take heed that just because you may not be mentioned in this little letter it does not mean that you are not of importance to me.

Damon: You have been one of the great inspirations for me on this site. You were the first to show me in how many different ways and fashions one could use a single magic/element to great and various results. Thank you for your unintentional lesson.

Dragon and Dvärg/Dwarf: I put you both here not out of disrespect or to save space or time, it's just that the two of you are a lot similar in the regards of how I feel and thus I thought that I could cut out the redundancy of things. I would classify the two of you as two of my best friends from FTF. While it is true that I have known Dvärg for longer, I feel a similar bond and connection with you, Dragon despite the time difference. You have both brought out the better me and I feel relaxed when conversing with you, to which I am grateful, as it has also helped me overcome some of my IRL insecurities. Thank you both for my development.

Sakura: To my friend Sakura, all I can say is that I find it a pity that I didn't get to know you sooner. In such a short time I have come to consider you a truly dear friend of mine and I hope that we will remain such long after my departure. I appreciate that you decided to make friends with me. You are a wonderful person and such a good-hearted one. Stay true, Sakura. Thank you for your friendship.

Nearo: You are here by necessity because you are from my nation XP.

Perchan: I want to thank you Per, however unlikely it is that you read this, for having been able to endure all my bullshit throughout these years. I don't know much about you, nor have we really interacted beyond the short approvals, but all the same: Thank you for your patience and for being a great admin.

Lastly, there is one person of great import that needs to be mentioned

Astrarche/Liza: Liza, we have not always seen eye to eye, particularly not in later days, and for that I am sorry. I am sorry for any and all parts I played in making us reach the point that we have. I know that I didn't always make things easy for you, and I can't say anything other than that I am sorry for that. You may have brought me pain in the past, but I know now that I have done the same, just in a different way and capacity. I never wanted things to become as they did. I used to look up to you, ya know. You were, and are, one of my greater inspirations. I could take a look at your work and get inspired, motivated to improve. I still can. Some part of me still wishes that we could return to how it used to be. I remember how you could make me laugh with that borderline brilliant snark of yours. Some part of me wishes that we could return to be friends, however strained it might have been. It may not matter much to you, but I want you to know that I hold no grudges against you, that I feel no spite. I want few things more than the chance to remedy that which is broken, though I know that it can likely never happen. I wish there was a chance for a restart on our friendship, unlikely as it may be, a chance to return to what once was. I fear that we may have done too much to each other for that to happen at this point though. The site has become a more active and in some ways, better place since your rise in status. Keep the family alive Liza, it would shatter me to see it collapse. Now, do with this as you please, but I have a final wish to ask of you. See it as an optional farewell gift: I would ask for a message. Not a conversation, no long-winded speeches between us or from me, just a single simple message as to why we ended up where we did. I have my theories and ideas, but I would really like some closure in this. The choice is up to you. Answer or disregard, that is all up to you and I will hold no grudge or spite regardless of your answer. Thank you for the advice and wisdom, as well as the grand ol' times we've shared.

And this is to everyone else, all of you who were not mentioned but still played a grand and collective role in my progress as an author and person. No matter any grievances there have been, I hope that they are or will be forgiven and forgotten so that we can remember our good times together. Thank you for everything; the good, the bad, the ugly and the beautiful. I will never forget my time here, nor will I forget the progress made thank to everyone on this site. I wish you all the best. Farewell, my Fairy Tail Family.
