Open Letters to Kazamatsuri

Hi Kaza.

I can’t pretend I’ve been around. I’m very bad at being social, and my job got in the way of participating in most Kaza events. I struggled deciding if should write anything for this, as the deep seated feelings of fondness for you all almost seems like something I’ve made up to fool myself.

I joined Kaza and then did nothing on the forum for like a year before even attempting to join the Discord, and I feel my interactions were just as sparse this whole time afterwards. But the interactions I have had over the years are indeed precious to me, even as sparse as they are.

As odd as it might sound, just supporting Kaza on Patreon always made me feel connected to everyone’s fun, even if I wasn’t directly participating. Just knowing there was that connection always made it feel like I was doing my part to keep everything fun for you all, even if that was just something I told myself.

The few times that I felt like I had something to say, you all were always there to talk back, and I’ll miss that feeling. I know the Discord is still there, and I have no plans on leaving it, but I doubt my old habits will die easily. I’m always interested in doing things, but I’m never available or social enough to do them.

I love you Kaza.
