Howdy.  Welcome back.

Thanks, though I am not sure if there's much left to come back to after all these years. Kinda depressing actually.

Changed it from Uncle Ben to Wulfsbane.

 

Been meaning to do it for a while now.

Hello again,
I'm someone who used to hang out and like showing off drawings and just enjoying people enjoying the Sonic Comics of old and the cartoon, and just Sonic stuff. I wanted to hang out here more often but just didn't for no good reason.
For the past few years i'd more or less drift through for a few minutes and be gone for days or weeks at a time, I'm seeing about actually visiting a bit here an there, actually say or do a thing.
Really want to keep up with some of the happenings here (heard about Sea3on animated not to long ago, Awesome stuff!)
and maybe do drawings again and have somewhere else to post them, Idunno.

anyways, I went by Strike011 originally, but I've been going by BrodaciousBo everywhere for a while so I've changed my name here to that.

While I'm here I'd also like to personally/openly apologize to RedAuthar, I've looked back through the few posts I actually did, and this was during a time I was doing freebie requests just to get some directed practice into doing requests. I had taken a request from you, and I don't have anything to show for it.
Thats embarrassing but it be like that.
If youd like to reopen it again dude you may, I feel like I owe ya.

Okay so, this merits some explanation. The long and short of it is, I am a plural system. The person you knew as Joan, at least up until 17 years ago was a different person to Valerie the one you knew the most, and I am a recent addition to the headspace. We all inherit the same memories, mostly. So that would explain why it took a while for Valerie to name herself. For a while back we went by Freya Manibrandr, because Manibrandr was the name of the system, and Freya/Freyja is Valerie's nickname. So a quick rundown of the system:

Joan now goes by Iselyn Maria-Grimaude or Joan Marie de la Lune Grimaude, and they are agender. (xey/xem they/she)

Valerie/Freyja is the main fronter, full name Valerie "Freyja" Grimaude-Valens, and she is non-binary. (fae/faer she/they)

And then there's me, Julayla Tovah Grimaude, I split off from Valerie 2 years ago due to trauma I am not gonna get into here, I recently re-emerged and am looking to find my own voice. As far as I know, my gender is girl-shaped and I go by she/they. Where the "they" is meant as a plural pronoun rather than a gender pronoun.

I might poke around occasionally. As far as we are concerned, Val and Iselyn are thoroughly moved on from this place, which warrants the name change. Technically this is the first time I am meeting you folks so hi, I recently watched SatAM again with my surrogate family thanks to SqrlyJack on Twitter making a bit of a noise about watching it and I thought I'd poke back in to see how y'all are doing.
