Long live Eggbug!

If anyone has a spare Toyhouse invite code lying around with nobody better to give it to, would anyone mind sending me one? It's fine if not, but it'd be nice to have a purpose-made site I could direct people toward to learn more about my OCs

If you're willing, you can either send me an ask on here, or send me a PM on Discord (my username there is the same as here)

Edit:

CODE RECEIVED, THANK YOU VERY MUCH @blaurascon!!

If you want other Cohost expats to be able to find your site, consider adding the "cohost" tag so it can be searched for! I'm not the first person to think of this apparently, but there aren't a lot of sites tagged with it yet.

(Like I said before, I'm not leaving just yet, but I figured I should get up a proper farewell post while most people are still here. This site still has a little life in it yet, but you can find where else I'll be in this chost, and when in doubt you can check my Carrd for updates even after Cohost goes read-only.)

This site has meant a lot to me and done a lot for me in the relatively short time I've been here. For starters, I've met some truly wonderful folks (even if I didn't talk to them much due to my shyness and such; if I still haven't reached out to you with a Discord friend request and you want to keep in touch, please feel free to add me!), the response to my selfies has given me a lot more confidence in my appearance, people have been incredibly kind and encouraging to me in general, it got me to get back into streaming (even in a limited capacity), I've learned a lot about the world and become a much more accepting person as a result, I've even done severals a few times, and most importantly of all: this site was the reason I revived sorXa back in late January of 2023, which set in motion a lot of great things for me creatively. I've been drawing more than I have in many years, I have a (small) stable of truly original characters, I finally started working on my own TTRPG in that setting, and I finally have ideas for the video game I've wanted to make for some years now (which I haven't actually started on yet, but sorXa & co. have given me more motivation than ever to properly brainstorm for it since I need some way to tell their story). And that's to say nothing of how much she means to me as a character on her own! I made her original iteration back in 2005 when I was a mere 8 years old, which is a long-ass time ago. And while she's changed a lot since then, so have I! In a way she's grown up with me, and in a way she even transitioned with me. I don't think another character will ever mean as much to me as she does, and I have Cohost to thank for the inspiration to bring her back.

I know the site wasn't perfect, but it really felt like home to me in a way I haven't felt in a damn long time, if ever. I don't know if anything will really be able to replace it for me. It certainly doesn't seem like any of the current options are up to the task, at least, but maybe someday, somewhere, someone will re-attempt what @staff tried to do here with Cohost. And if they do, you'll almost certainly find me there with the handle @AqueousAblution. Maybe that hypothetical future site will survive longer, maybe even thrive! I sure as hell hope so, at least. And I hope I'll see as many of you all as possible there, too!
