Hello everyone. I've tried for quite a while to avoid doing this but it's looking more and more like that impossible, so I'm here to break the silence and address some things. I apologize to everyone in advance.

I made mistakes over the last couple years. Some big ones, and I hurt two people in particular. I am sorry for that. I am so, very sorry. I think about it everyday, I regret the things I did everyday. I can never take those things back. This might sound like I'm saying that just because I'm supposed to say that but it's the truth. I hate the person I became during that time and I hate what I did and how I hurt those two people who were, truly, very dear to me. I won't get into specifics here, those who need to know already know the specifics. I just want to share where I'm at now, looking back on it. I'm sorry.

I wanted to move on, and let everyone else move on too. I wanted to, and want to, atone for those mistakes and try to do better. I think, so far, I've been successful in that. The people who have stuck around with me through all of this, who know all sides of things, who had an unbiased view of everything, would agree with that I think.

I have made a new account, with a new name, separate from this one. I'm not trying to hide from anyone, or reconnect with anyone from the past who I've hurt. I'm not trying to be sneaky or deceptive and I apologize if I came across that way. I am trying to continue having a second life, a furry life, that I can use as an escape, as so many of us do. I want to do art, and make friends. Nothing else. I do not want to repeat the mistakes I've made or hurt anyone else, and I swear to everyone that I will not. I have learned.

The reason I'm writing this now is because I've heard rumors that there are rumors going around about what I'm doing now, in the present. I've heard rumors of me trying to meet up with someone, even grooming them, that I've planned this for a long time. That isn't true. It isn't even remotely close to true. I haven't tried to meet up with anyone, I haven't tried to GROOM anyone, I genuinely, honestly do not know where those rumors are coming from. I very purposely keep my new furry life and my real life very separate. I am not an evil mastermind. I am not trying to hurt anyone. These rumors are entirely baseless, and what upsets me most is that they're not even coming from the two people I hurt, they're coming from random people I've never even heard of. I don't know why, I don't know where this is coming from, but it just isn't true.

I made mistakes in the past. Absolutely. I will never, ever deny that. But right now, today, and every day from today onwards, I am just trying to be a better person. I am trying to draw, I am trying to make friends, nothing else.

I am sorry for what I've done. I truly am. And I promise to you, to whoever seems to think I'm repeating those mistakes, I am not and never will. That is the honest truth. I want to learn from my mistakes, atone for what I've done, regret what I've done, but otherwise move on. And I want to let the people I've hurt move on too. I'm sure they don't ever want to hear my name ever again, and I don't want them to.
