How Can I Join The Abime? I'm Tired Of It Out Here

Wow! This is a real stunner! Who could not vote for a fella in a hat? Thanks a ton, pal!

"Wahoo!"

Something something William in a hat ^

anyways can't wait to see how the vote pans out tomorrow

(my votes for @williamy3w :3)

(click for higher res. because tumblr 😔)

hey Will, how attached are you to your tumblr? would you ever come back once you found Henry?

Huh! It is a pretty sweet joint. S’pose I’d ask him if he’d wanna make the trip back with me. Comin’ back would be way easier than gettin’ there!

h e l l o? why is your blog so o l d

Woah! Howdy, Tati! Here to check out our new decor?

n o

the vibes in here are a w f u l btw 🤎

haha, p roba b ly. i d id m y be s t!

i  n e e d to talk to you i've been w a i t i n g for a while 🤍 you guys really take your t i m e in that garden of yours huh 🤭

Oh, ab-so-lute-ly!

um . . . may b e.

ew. forget i said anything anyway my angels are telling me your m o n s t e r is looking for us ‼️

Yikes!

sh ould we hide? we could go back to my pl ac e.

I mean, I figure it ain’t benefitting any of us if we split up. S’pose the thing would simply come for Tati here again. 

y e s  i don’t want to be HERE a l o n e ‼️ and if i was in your w e i r d old screensaver i’d be as uncomfortable as grandpa radio is over here

h e y!

i’m not asking for h e l p like i think you shouldn’t be a l o n e either ❌

that’d just be s t u p i d

and didn't they already find you there o n c e.

your place isn't s a f e. 🔓

i don' t t h ink i can st ay here muc h lon ge r, though.

And this ain’t the most secure place to hide anyway. As much as I like the folks here, it ain’t exactly private. We’d hafta find somewhere you all solidly have feet on the ground, somewhere just for the three of us.

why n ot the pl a ce we u sed to ha ng out? 

your boyfriend d e s t r o y e d it. lmao

Technically, Mal did! Or maybe those folks we’re lookin’ to avoid! Who can say?

oh. wha t if we ma ke a new on e?

what about m a l 💓

shouldn’t we all be t o g e t h e r

Someone let us know she could be stoppin’ by a while back, but I ain’t heard a peep from her yet. S’pose we could wait for her, though time is of the essence!

and…i don’t kno w. hiding out’s only temp orary. and the kind of p la ce we need sounds pretty s m all. d a r k. lone l y. we can’t stay ther e forev er

maybe we'll have time to come up with a permanent s o l u t i o n

Henry and I have been working on some thin’ like that! Couple of the folks out there seem to think I’m responsible for the sticky situation those kids are in. 

w e al l ar e.

Well, figure a fella ought to be able to admit when it ain’t turning out like he hoped. And start hopin’ for somethin’ new! 

like pick in g them ap ar t, if we ca n .

aren’t they like the closest thing to d e a t h HERE 💒

how are you even gonna do that

Erm. Well. We ain’t rightly sure!

but with a little more t ime ma yb e we ca n figure it ou t

And I’d sure appreciate your brains on the matter, kid!

t h a n k s.

i guess if we had a s a f e p l a c e we could think about it more. or come up with more of a p l a n at least

and may be o n e of our buddie s wh o it isn ' t so dang erous to will g et to it bef ore w e ca n

… spea king of which, how a re we gonna make a new place? …

...

What’re ya lookin at me for? 

i mean. you’re the only one who can m o v e around comfortably. have you s e e n anywhere that could work

We ain’t tryin to make anythin’ so big as a whole “Site!” All we need’s a li’l pocket. Somewhere that thing can’t access! 

i don’t think we can do it. even all t o g e t h e r.

but mayb e they could.

i don’t t r u s t them 💔

Ya got any better ideas, kid?

💬 💬 💬

fine. let's ask mal once she gets here.

if sh e get s here. should i g o ch eck on he r?

Sweetheart, you ain't in much condition to go hoppin' around! If I knew where she'd got off to, I'd do it, but nobody's found occasion to say.

yeah, i dunno eith e r.

well. let's s e e.

what's your favorite thing about being on tumblr, so far?

Gettin' to reach all o' you friendly folks! And seeing the variety of things out there y'all enjoy! Like all the creatures and fellas and colors in your li'l' icon squares!

I don't even know where to start. I have so many questions.

Well, when something used to stump me, I'd ask Henry about it. More brains is better than one! And keep watching -- I can't see as much as you kids think I can. None of us is used to hidin' out all scattered like.

you’re all musicians? what kind of music does Tati make?

She fiddles on her computer, kinda in the way Henry would plunk things out on his various doohickeys back in the day. And sings! Figure most of her tunes are gone now.

Yes, Mal visited discord once. She ended up dropping pieces badly and it left damage afterwards even when she returned to her website. It just worries me. I'd honestly love to see you guys working together and maybe helping each other more than see you bicker like this. That said, I don't think I ever said it, but congratulations on reuniting! You two are sweet.

oh that makes sens e! but i don t know if it's the same here. will is h elpi ng me st ay toge the r. and th ank you. i'm very ha ppy to be b a c k and i think i re cognize you! lots of old fr iends were on the w aves with me i'm finding. sorry for forg ett in g you a ll. i want us to w ork t oge the r too.

Thanks for the congratulations! Boy, am I glad to have him around. Didn't make a registry or nothin' but getting all these gifts anyway has been a hoot!

hi william. can you fix cars perchance? do you have any engineering experience? asking for a friend, thank you.

I can verifiably not! I have never driven a car. I'm more of a useless artist sort. I wager Henry can help, though!

Who are you?

The name's William! Come on in!
