I still miss Margaras.
Koray arrives from the foyer.
Koray murmurs, "Margaras would come here, yes?"
Kuttas says, "Possible. Who's asking?"
Koray murmurs, "A bearer of bad news"
Kuttas doesn't like the sound of that.
Kuttas says, "What happened?"
Koray murmurs, "http://www.obitmichigan.com/Obituary/13660/Ryan-Abbott"
Koray murmurs, "Which is him, I believe"
Kuttas says, "Fuck."
MegaWolf blinks.
Paladin barks, "It does look like him, without the glasses."
Koray murmurs, "Sorry... I didn't mean to bring ya down"
Koray murmurs, "I just thought you should all know"
Kuttas says, "Thank you."
Vetiver blinks.
Vetiver quorks, "Gotta be kidding me."
Koray nods. "Also, http://www.furaffinity.net/user/margaras/ if you wanna say anything."
Srass says, "HOw did it happen?"
Koray waves.
MegaWolf -.- http://www.fox17online.com/news/fox17-ryan-abbott-soldier-from-grand-rapids-dies-in-washington-20120911,0,6686609.story
Koray teleports away.
Koray has left.
Paladin barks, "Well, that first web page does identify him by name. Wow, that sucks."
Himmel._.
Himmel says, "GOddammit."
Vetiver sighs. That's unbelievable.
Vetiver quorks, "Dammit."
Himmel says, "That... fucking sucks. ._."
Cain frowns so fucking hard
Kuttas says, "I'd noticed he hadn't been around in a while..."
Srass says, "Well, he was a little more scarce of late, but..."
Zhorah rumbles, "Wait, what happened?]\"
Srass says, "He was on as recently as 9/3."
Srass says, "Margaras died."
Himmel says, "It doesn't specify."
Kuttas says, "Car wreck."
MegaWolf growls softly, "He'd only started being active again in the past few years. -.-"
Zhorah rumbles, "o.o"
Himmel says, "A car wreck?"
Himmel says, "Seriously?"
Vetiver never met him in person, but he's been a friend here for over a decade. :(
Kuttas says, "Yeah"
Cain curls up, is no ofuckingkaywith this
MegaWolf growls softly, "I"ve pretty much known him ever since I've been here"
Kuttas says, "That's what the second link said."
MegaWolf squeezes Cain tightly.
Paladin is surprised that whoever wrote the first obituary knew his online name to include it.
Duelist growls quietly, "Oh fuck."
Kuttas misses that the first time through.
Dachande. Fuck :( That's just awful.
Himmel nods.
Zhorah hmmm
Cain hides in xane
Zhorah curls around Kuttas.
MegaWolf yips
Duelist rubs the back of his head.
Dralen acks, "That's awful. Wut..."
Cain doesn't know what to think. Margs was awesome. missing doesn't even begin to describe...
Vetiver is just kind of in shock.
Srass says, "I looked up the Michigan Patriot Guard. They sound pretty damn awesome."
Dachande. not really sure what to say about it, really lost someone good.
Vetiver hugs Dachande. :(
MegaWolf growls softly, "This is actually the first time someone close to me online has died, so I'm just... I don't know."
Dachande. hugs and holds.
Paladin barks, "We've had other furry deaths. Cyno, Furp ..."
MegaWolf growls softly, "I do wonder how many of the ones who quietly faded away are dead."
Paladin barks, "I would wager a few, Megs."
Cain nods to Xane and noses in as well.
MegaWolf growls softly, "Yeah, I'd barely even heard of Furp until he died. I guess he was really popular but I'd seen him on IRC a few times and that's it."
Vetiver knew Furp, but Margaras was much more of a presence here, so it hits harder.
Duelist growls quietly, "Yeah, Margs was a regular here."
Himmel says, "You don't know how you are?"
Dachande. says, "Yeah never knew Furp, Margs i've kown for a damn long time."
Himmel nudges Mega.
MegaWolf nips Himmel.
Srass says, "I've lost one other friend my own age, someone I knew in person, but somehow this hit harder."
Cain woofs, "it just feels unreal..."
Srass says, "Yeah, it does."
Himmel leans on Mega.
Dralen dated Cyno. Knew Margaras for years. Knew Kedri really well,
Vetiver wonders if Margaras ever met anyone from FM in person. I don't think he did. :/
Kuttas says, "I keep thinking, I wish I'd gone to Seattle in January, like I'd planned."
You yerf, "Vetiver: Rustitobuck."
Kuttas says, "Equis."
Vetiver quorks, "Oh, good."
Cain woofs, "I'm trying to reach Equis right now"
Kuttas hehs. Left voicemail... c.c
Zhorah dun know anyone from here's number
Himmel says, "I texted him."
Himmel says, "And tweeted."
Kuttas says, "Well, hell. He's gonna have a lot of messages from us, apparently..."
JanusFox yips, "Wait... wtf..."
Kuttas pets Djirin, smiling a little.
JanusFox yips, "No :("
JanusFox yips, "fuck."
Vetiver quorks, "Always thought he was a really nice guy. He seemed to be a little directionless for a few years, when he was pretty scarce around here, but joining the army seemed to change things for him."
Srass says, "He always seemed so fascinatingly enigmatic to me..."
Kuttas nods.
Srass says, "And he had one of the cooler names I ever ran across. Sanskrit for 'hunter.'"
Kuttas says, "Heh. I didn't know that."
Srass says, "He didn't either when he first picked it out -- I forget where he said he did find it."
Kuttas says, "He's one of the only people here I was immediately comfortable with."
MegaWolf chuckles softly. "And apparently he never updated his pinfo, since about 1999..."
MegaWolf growls softly, "I'd forgotten he wasn't always lynxy"
Srass says, "His prism cat form was pretty. :)"
Himmel says, "Srass: Rudyard Kipling."
Duelist growls quietly, "Oh I got something for that. Known Margs for years....right? Whitest guy in the world, I mean, ya know, look at the pic, right? Kept me in funk-drumming rhythms forever. I mean, funk drumming. Not kidding. He gave me, like 4 funk-drumming music books."
MegaWolf growls softly, "Yus. Now I remember it."
Kuttas says, "He mentioned a while back that he thought he should update it."
Vetiver quorks, "That's about when I first met him here."
JanusFox yips, "Is that really him? That's for sure him right?"
Vetiver quorks, "Yeah."
Duelist growls quietly, "You say enigmatic and I do not disagree, but man, that lynx was dynamic."
MegaWolf growls softly, "The birthday in his pinfo matches, too."
Himmel says, "The Michigan Obituary mentions him by name. Online."
Kuttas says, "The obituatry names him as 'Margaras'/"
JanusFox is stunned.
Vetiver thinks we all are.
Acy arrives from the foyer.
Acy barkbark.
Himmel is just... sad.
Acy nose MegaRuff; SpookyFox.
JanusFox yips, "He was too fucking nice to die :(("
Kuttas says, "Acy: http://tinyurl.com/92fgx2d"
Floid says, "It's almost like someone in training said 'this is what you're going to do with the rest of your life.'"
MegaWolf squeezes Acy real tight.
Acy says, "Wow, that's pretty fucked up.. o.o"
Kuttas says, "I'm glad he'll be buried with honors."
Himmel nods.
Eibon has left.
You yerf, "Not doing well with this, gonna sneak. Keep being excellent. Will stay and listen 'til I time out."
Cain hugs Makyos
Srass squeezes Makyo's shoulder.
Kuttas ruffles Makyo.
