Hey there Fairies and Sparrowmen!
I was very upset over the fact I couldn't make it to the August/September Arrival Party today, I really wanted to be able to celebrate some fairies' arrival days while celebrating my own actual birthday! However, right when the party was going on, I just so happened to be blowing out my own candles and eating my own cake... By the time I was done, the party was all over!
This community, however, is so loving and caring that even though I've only been here since this July, everyone welcomed me with a "Happy birthday!" Even though I didn't have a ridiculously huge birthday bash, my fairy friend are what truly made today a Silly Sweet 16!
Even though I've only been here for two months (Tomorrow, September 9th, officially makes AnaFox two months old!) the FABC community already feels like family to me. Every day you all make me wish that I'd found out about this place sooner & sooner!
In such a small amount of time, we've already been through so many ups and downs. I still remember the anxious wait for 2.0, and then all of the excitement of its opening night... everything has been such a blur! I managed to write my own poem for the first time in forever, win the CoverFairy contest, get casted in Flitterella, & meet all sorts of Famous Fairies I never got to meet in the original Pixie Hollow! Gosh, so much has happened already, I can't imagine how wild this next year is going to be!
This is just a sort of shoutout to everyone in this community whose ever welcomed me into a conversation, who taught me all the tips and tricks of flying around here, and made FairyABC, a place I thought I'd visit for 5 minutes just for pure nostalgia & then abandon, into a place I can't imagine leaving!
For all the challenges, contests, & chats that kept me flying back online every day. For all the fairies whose creativity, helping hands, and hearts of gold that continue to inspire me even when I'm on the Mainland. For everyone who helped me when I felt scared to even come online again, who had my back while I struggled. For everyone whose bravery to share their ideas inspired me to share my own.
To all of the pixies that had part in making me feel like I've been here forever even though it's been a mere two months, this is for you.
There is so much love and creativity thriving in this community, and even when we experience a bit of a struggle, we just let it roll off of our wings and keep flying onward. It's stunning, really. I've been in small fandoms before, but the FairyABC community is different. It this sort of magic to it unlike any other... and I don't even mean that as a fairy pun!
Thank you all for being the sweetener to my Sweet 16 ♪♫
Extra Pixie Dust goes to whoever got that Ariana Grande reference at the last second!
