Oh, thank you for reaching out, Merie ... I'm all right. I've been absorbed in a lot of things (travel, work, training robots) and just haven't been especially social online of late. It makes me feel really nice, though, that you cared enough to check in on me. ;/w/; I've just responded to your last PM.
Ahaha, not to worry at all -- I had a feeling it might be something like that. I've been quite busy myself (on a trip in Thailand presently), but I checked Gaia the other day and thought that perhaps sending a friend request might be an effective way to follow up. Thank you for accepting!
It does appear that site activity has largely consolidated to Chatterbox, for better or for worse...I suppose I'm just glad that the site is still alive at all, after nearly twenty years. ROFL
And thank you for pointing me in the right direction -- I took a good look at the thread (and all of the adorable pixel houses, oh my gosh...they make me want to open up Aseprite and make one of my own!). This honestly looks so adorable, and precisely like the kind of thing that I'd *like* to participate in on Gaia, however...
...I must admit to you that the particulars are a bit foreign to me. (For instance, I haven't the foggiest idea as to what an event/charity thread actually is. ( -`ω-)✧ 'Was never the most prolific Gaian back in the day.) Would you mind terribly if I sent you a DM to inquire into the details of how the thread works? Alternatively, I have Discord, too, if that would be a preferable format -- whatever is comfortable for you. I'd simply love to learn more; I rather have a soft spot for the idyllic, pastel-coloured aesthetics.

Oh, no worries on the delay -- I'm just happy that my message did eventually reach you! I know it kind of came out of nowhere, but your avi was so pretty that I simply couldn't resist saying something. What good is admiring from afar and saying nothing, anyway?
And I can certainly commiserate with not being particularly active on Chatterbox. I've gotten into a few good conversations there, but altogether I don't have much of a taste for chaos, even of the joyful variety...if you don't mind me asking, what little corner are you referring to?
I just wanted to say that I love your avatar and profile. Such an excellent sense of style -- I hope you've been enjoying Gaia to the fullest since you came back.
