<p>So, I think the order of my entry to furry was as follows:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>Find a furcode in someone's forum sig.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Oh my aching bones.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Shut up, you're not that old, the internet just moves <em>really</em> fast. Besides, you don't have bones.
2. Find a furcode decoder.
3. Find Captain Packrat's page on furry.
4. Find Yerf!.
5. Make a dragon character.
6. This lasts three days. No one pays attention to me. Make a fox character.
7. Meet some furries on GovTeen (née Puberty101).
8. Start talking with furries on AIM.
9. Join FluffMUCK.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<blockquote>
<p>Ah yes, Fluff. May she rest in eternal solitude.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>She's not totally gone. I don't think. I actually haven't checked in a while.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>I'm starting to doubt your commitment to nostalgia, here.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>What would I gain from such?</p>
<blockquote>
<p>You could go look in the park. You could go ride around in the Universe-in-a-Box. You could <code>laston</code> some folks, maybe.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Weirdly enough, of the people I would <code>laston</code>, I was finally reintroduced to a few not too long ago by, of all people, Zorin, head wiz of Fluff. Rela and GC. I was glad to see them doing well.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>You were glad to see they were alive.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>I was glad to see they were alive, yes. That was around the time I had found the obituary for Danny.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>You could <code>laston</code> Marek.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>I'm not sure I could take that.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Is that why you don't want to connect?</p>
</blockquote>
<p>It's one reason. Nostalgia is only so much fun. It's fun up until a certain extent, and then it becomes painful.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>It's fun up until you're confronted with mortality and uncertainty. Danny died, and you don't know if Marek's alive.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Yeah.</p>
<p>It's no longer fun, but it's no less important.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Let's talk about Margaras.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Not yet.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Danny's passing was an abstract thing. Maragaras' was much more immediate. Much more concrete and real.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Please.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Take your time.</p>
