Do youuu have a magic pickle? 👀

I love seeing everyone's trees!

Another sign of growth is accepting the outcome of the choices made, and moving forward, understanding that there are some things that cannot be repaired, but using that to better your friendships in the future. I can see the person you are now has grown a lot from this, and hopefully continues to.

You made some bad choices, but having spoken to you about them, you have been, from what I can tell, honest about your mistakes, and owned that you were at fault. I have never once heard you blame anyone else. Taking responsibility for your actions is one of the biggest signs of growth there is.

I wasn't there for your past, but as someone who has also grown a lot over the years myself, I believe it is not our poor actions that define us, but how we resolve and change and grow. If someone says they have learned, I try to allow them to prove that, and look at people for who they are now.

My tattoo you designed for me is still one of my favorite pieces of art.

I may need to get one of my other boy for the other side one of these days.

2. A large number of people in this fandom do not care about their artists.

They don't care you work hard for something they will enjoy.
They don't care that what they are doing hurts you in the long run.
They don't care that it's disrespectful.
