I literally just wrote out the English alphabet on a piece of paper and, using a random number generator, I kept crossing out letters until I only had about ten left. Then, I rearranged those ten until I'd come up with something that was something akin to a name and just went with it. Originally, it was spelled Avyrus, but I changed the u to an i for aesthetic reasons.

Clearly you didn't really look at my FA...

I know what you meant, but what did you expect me to say? I had to say something, so I made a joke.

Actually, on second thought, I probably will move my Formspring as well. I really should cut complete ties with the Avyris handle to avoid confusing everyone.

Soul's my preferred handle now, yes.
I do not plan on changing my Formspring, but I do plan on moving my Youtube channel the next time I have a speedpaint to post.

No. Sadly I'm being dragged to my extended family's party to sit around and talk about shit I don't know... Like the super bowl game of 1983 or some crazy crap that happened when 12 old guys were kids. There may be food though so I can drown my sorrows in chips hopefully... but it will also be a total sausage fest. The women in my family like to drag me away from the game to talk about cooking, husbands, jewelry and church in the kitchen while we make everybody sammiches, and that pisses me off to a degree that cannot be civilly described.

Let me go women, I want to watch the game. Its the fucking super bowl.

I know that her fursona is an Avy rip. She came to me many many many times, asking how I designed my frusona, looking for tips on how to design hers and seeking guidance. I happily did all I could for her in terms of explaining how to go about designing a fursona and she has showed me many revisions, but every single time I got her on the right path, she would immediately devolve back into an Avy knock-off. So I'd try to explain and steer her in the right direction again, but it was like teaching a pile of bricks. She's a fascinating young lady and I have nothing against her personally, she just never seemed to understand what I was saying and has since fallen back into her old ways of terribly knocking off my fursona.

At this point, I'm just tired of arguing about it. Avy is about to get a face lift (and a name change) anyway so... I can't be assed.

I think she's a fine artist and I've talked to her a few times on Youtube. I have no reason to think anything negative of her, especially because I know she's been following my work for a long time.

I'm not sure what you mean by "attractive" (if you mean like... sexually attractive or just visually well designed attractive) but since I don't get off to people who don't exist, I'm just going to assume the latter.

Well three of my favorite characters would be... Ellie Langford from Dead Space 2 (wonderful character, her physical design leaves a little to be desired... especially since they gave her a huge chest because that's what you do in video games, but her role in the story was absolutely amazing), Subaru Sumeragi from X/1999 (in the manga more so than the anime, he doesn't do much in the anime but the manga shows much more depth), and um... I could list a lot of characters here really but I'm trying to pick just one. Someone live action would be cool... Perhaps Selene from the Underworld Movies. Great character, and of course Kate Beckinsale... well it's Kate god damned Beckinsale. If ever she was meant for a role, Selene was it. Plus I have a thing for strong female characters, as I've always despised gender roles and gender stereotypes and what not. Just because we have boobs does not mean we can't kick ass.

There was no one single artist. It was a common marking that appeared on many fursonas over the span of several years, and it was this kind of generalized exposure that inspired me to include it on Avy. I simply thought it was a visually attractive marking.

I think they're another of Apple's silly money-grabbing products, but that's about it. I don't think I'd ever buy one, but I've seen people who have them and if it works for them it works for them. I'm just not gonna fall for it.

Also I really dislike Apple products. Not for any specific reason, I just can't stand their user interface.

Not even a little bit, no.

Tis a bit of a secret inside joke between Kaylink and I

OMG YES I SAW THAT MOTHERTRUCKING INTERCEPTION
lost my damn mind

No, that's a period... which can turn women into monsters, so I suppose your point stands regardless. Well played.

I don't usually have to go anywhere, honestly.

Up, I ended up counting them anyway.

16 is the official number, and that does not include hats that I stopped wearing for any reason. I have a few that didn't fit right. x3

Wat

Well... yes, I would definitely like to have a significant other, but my personality gets in the way. I'm a very atypical girl: I don't like it when guys insist to pay for everything or insist on carrying all of my stuff for me, treat me like I'm made of porcelain. I do not like feeling weak, being... underestimated. And while I expect it to some degree, simply because that's the way our society thinks and functions stereotypically, it very quickly gets on my nerves. So I'm very unapproachable in the eyes of most guys.

And then most girls can just do better so... they don't bother to stoop.

I'm not terribly "afraid" of anything. I just have never been honestly approached by anyone I considered even remotely passable. The only person who expressed any noticeable interest in me was a total nutjob (like... legit telling me plans to come and shoot up the high school, violent plans to kill his parents, and so on) so I wasn't going for that. I don't really hate romantic things... well I guess I do. Reminds me of how lonely I am, so in that regard, I can't stand seeing romantic things. Happy couples, people who I know are jerks and idiots the same age or even younger than me getting freaking married. But I assume every lonely person feels that way.
