3 fucking years of SN-HP

o_o as of today, 9/4, it's been a year since i started this. o3o;; yeah, the games came out more than 2 months later, but prologues count. o.o though despite this coming out so soon, unlike XN-HV and SN-SE, this wasn't the first ever Nuzlocke of its gen to come out, it was the 3rd. the real first was Stars Aligned (then Pokemon Grey), but that got discontin-._.;; im rambling and this is just the introductory message. o.o here's the last few pics ... well, i'd just individually link the previous anniversary pics again, but i have a subfolder for that now



o3o;; i joked about last year being the last time there'd be a yearly update, but ... well, here we are again. though it ain't just laziness ... o3o;; it was a huge part of that, though. not gonna deny it

o.o even after reducing some birthday pics to shitty doodles as an attempt to get things out faster, i've just felt like crap throughout the year. a very severe lack of appreciation in a more exclusive Discord server was a notable component for that. o.o despite them showing a love for Hestia herself (with one having her in a story), i've shown this run there (and excerpts from it) several times and not once had it been read. a few only just did it last month ... when they could have for the last 14 months i've been in the place. sure, it's nice that it fina-friggin-lly got read (by 2 or 3 people out of, like, 18), -3-;; but i can't help but feel bitter about being so blatantly ignored for so long. i do get that these projects should just be made for yourself most of all instead of just being made for others, i've preached that for years; if you don't enjoy what you make, what's the point? <_<;; but man, the knowledge that your own works just get ignored when others in this clique are praised right in front of your face is just plain confidence crushing ... ._.;; and it's made worse when another rando who joins later (who, like myself, also has no history with anyone in the place) gets looked at vastly more instead. o.o nothing against the guy, ._. but it feels like insult upon insult, i just hate to be so blatantly ignored ... im also athazagoraphobic (it's a fear of being ignored. o.o forgotten too, but it's more being deliberately ignored in this case), so yeah. haven't been in the best mental state all year. o3o;; not that i was ever the picture of mental health, but yeah

<_<;; all right, enough rambling on that (if you actually read my nonsense, have a cookie ), o.o what about the actual fucking picture? well, i didn't half ass it like i did last year. o3o i thought of it, but that joke really only works once. o_o here, well ... this is just where SN-HP 7 leaves off. o.o this is East Lake Axewell on an overcast day ... and Lacco's just there, wondering what to do next since he left Hestia after a rage filled outburst. o_o the lab's a no-go since the other starters kept ripping on him for his dreams and using him so they wouldn't get in trouble ... o3o;; joining up with Nico's treasure hunters ain't that great an idea since some were in the group and Nico's connected with a large portion of this section of the Wild Area to begin with ... o_o there's also just plain ol' suicide by jumping into the lake and letting Asereje do her thing. he's just got a lot to think about at this point ...

o.o the last few times, i've mentioned the run not being done in-game ... o3o;; and it still isn't as i type this. real close, though. o.o i seriously hauled ass last year. ._. won't deny i've been horrendously slow these past 3 years, though



i don't own Pokemon, Nuzlocke, or any references used
