Okay. RANT WARNING AND ALSO EXTREME SADNESS, OTHER ANGSTY FEELINGS, ETC. Proceed with caution...

~<O>~

Alright. I'm a huge Creatures fan. I absolutely love Dex already and I literally can't pick a favorite Creature because I love them all way too much.

To me, they are almost like my family.

In case you haven't put the clues together yet, my family isn't much of a family.

Most of the time I'm ignored, and when they pay attention to me, it's only because they have to, or it's negative attention [AKA child abuse]. Yeah. Not the happiest times.

For me, YouTube is my life. It's my safe haven, my fantasy world that actually exists. Before I was as into the Creatures as I am now, I loved Team Crafted. I watched them both, but TC was my life.

Then, it all fell apart.

Someone left.

I don't know who did it first, but afterwards, all I knew was that Team Crafted was down to four people, instead of the original 12ish. 13ish? I dunno.

That's when things got all too real in my perfect fantasy world. All to close to home and reality.

So I stopped watching Team Crafted a lot. I got more into the Creatures. I learned their catchphrases, who fought with who, when the weekly streams were, etc. These guys became my second family. I started watching a little bit after Gassy left so I wasn't very traumatized.

I've been happy with them for so long now. Treetopia was my little 20 minutes in heaven every couple of days.

That died too.

Thank you for visiting Treetopia. Please don't forget your complimentary apple. [anyone else remember that joke?]

They were my family. My group of immature but hilarious group of older brothers. My constant and steady stream of support and hope throughout my life.

Sly actually introduced me to the Creatures. He was someone who seemed to understand that not everyone's family situation was perfect.

That video he made about not giving up and not commuting suicide? That helped me.

All his songs he and SIYR made and produced? They helped me.

His silly jokes, his golden giggle, just everything about me helped me and gave me hope. He was the one who convinced me that I still had a chance. That I wasn't useless, I wasn't a waste of space, and that I could make a difference in the world.

One person did that. One person, who has no relation to me. Someone who isn't my family. Someone who doesn't know me specifically as a person. Someone who was living across America, farther away from me than any family member I know about. He helped me not commit suicide, and I haven't even met him in person, and probably never will.

He has now left the Creatures.

Dex is not his replacement. That was just horrible timing.

His reasons make sense. They are reasons that I understand and support him with. I just wish that he didn't have to leave the Creatures.

You don't know how much I cried, or how many times I pinched myself just to try and wake myself up from what seemed like a nightmare at the time. Now it's a depressing reality I have to accept.

My family is breaking apart again.

Reality is sinking in.

Bad thoughts are coming back.

I still love him.

I still love the Creatures.

And I know, that to all the true fans out there, he will forever remain a True Creature in our eyes, hearts, and minds. He is the first Creature to leave without any bad blood, or without being forced.

I just want to let him know that I'm now a little bit more dead inside.

No one is worried about why I'm crying on the couch as I write this.

I feel like they might care.

I still love and support him.

I just wish he wouldn't have had to make this choice.

No more gaming with any of the Creatures.

No more giggling in various Lets Plays of the Creatures.

No more PuppyChef at the office.

No more Sly.

He's known by a lot of names.

Sly.

Eddie.

Edwin Cardona.

SlyFoxHound.

He was known for a lot of things.

China Prime.

Hipo.

Hitting ducks with shovels.

Minecraft Marriage.

HomieCraft.

Minecraft Daily.

The Hype Creature.

Head2Head.

Any many other things.

We will all miss his presence in the Creature Office.

My feelings are just all jumbled up.

I'm a little bit mad, mostly sad, horribly depressed, and completely confused about this whole mess.

I wish things were just normal again.

No more Sly leaving the Creatures.

No more of me being depressed.

Dex being a Creature.

Twitter and Wattpad to stop glitching the fuck out.

Summer to continue regularly and smoothly.

I don't know when Eddie posted the video explaining why he left the Creatures. All I know is that I now hate that day.

And now I've made myself cry again. Oh joy.

As much love as I can muster in my depressed state to anyone who bothered reading this.

Most likely no one.

Even here I'm alone.

I'm going to hide and cry under the covers now.

Bye.
