it's been a year since i joined! i can't believe it's been that long already :0 it was only a few months since i got into h!p but i already loved beyooooonds and airi, and i was so excited for their upcoming releases at the time, but ngl i think half of the reason i joined was just to make forum layouts with airi and beyooooonds lol. funny enough i didn't actually make a real set until like june or something (here's an old screenshot of my profile i found just for this post! couldn't find one of my signature though rip). i was kinda nervous to post on here until around january or february, but as i got into h!p more i just wanted to talk about it a lot, and a year later i'm at 1k posts oops.
getting real for a sec: i've never really felt like i've belonged in any fandom spaces and felt really lonely on the sites i was on for fandom stuff, but h!o is honestly the first fandom community i've really felt at home in. i really appreciate this forum and the users on it, so thanks to everyone on here and h!o in general! <33
