Themed TF/SF Saturdays

[Bananiac]

Happy New Year to everyone.

 

For next Saturday I plan to take part again, bringing an Assault Rifle / Devices Blaster as "Directrice 11".

[FrauleinMental]

Happy 2025, Theme Team!

[ZamuelNow]

I might be able to join with Technician Hugo - Arsenal/FF Controller.  I hate that I missed so many in the later part of the year.

Hello, Theme Teamers!

 

I just realized I never updated you, and I sincerely apologize. I hope Midnyte kept you up to date.

 

Unfortunately, we lost our old girl, Tinkerbell, on November 8th. We've been grieving her loss hard.

 

I had my surgery on November 19th, and all went well, although my surgery was delayed until 2:30 pm. That made for a very long day. The most significant part of my recovery has been fatigue, which I understand may last a few months. I sleep a lot and haven't been able to get up for gaming on Saturday mornings. 😄 I return to work on January 6th, and the fatigue will be challenging, especially since I can't sleep in like I have been.

 

You have been grabbing some new people while I've been gone, which makes me happy. Once I get my energy back, I'll return.

 

Happy New Year! Here's to hoping this year is less full of drama and more full of fun!

I was just thinking about you recently and hoped you were doing well; it is good to see you post! I hope that your recovery continues to go well and that you are able to ease back into work without too much pain/stress.

 

I'm am sorry for the loss of Tinkerbell. 😞

Hey Trixie! Good to hear that you are making your way back! Sorry for Tinkerbell, losing a dear pet is always tough. 

Hope you can slowly get back to "normal" (for whatever that goes nowadays) and we will always have a place on Theme Team for you whenever you feel good enough to return 🙂

 

We have been keeping it going, which by no means should imply that you weren't missed 😉

Tin Mage Mark II/Apex TFs - Malta costumes

Saturday, January 4, 2025

 

Today we had a nice Variety Act team makeup for this double whammy TF. All went smoothly, even the Battle Maiden fight! I think only 2 defeats is a new record for us.

 

The Malta costumes were a lot of fun and it was great seeing all the creativity!

Outside of my standard "haven't run this since Live" embarrassment, had a lot of fun today.

I'll miss the first two weeks (4 and 11 Jan) due to work travel, so I'll need y'all to organize those if you want to run them.

 

For Synapse I have Clockwork Seraph - Fire / Energy Scrapper. I am happy to lead this one, if nobody else screams "NO! Don't do it!"

 

She is just lvl16 right now, but I shall bring her into the 20ies by Saturday, so we can run at max level.

Last I recall, she lives up near San Francisco; it was me who used to live in the LA area.

[Bananiac]

We're just fine! We live in the Bay Area, so Northern CA. I don't think we have anyone in the LA area anymore. Unless I'm mistaken, and if so, I apologize!

Like I said, I was from there. I moved to South Dakota in 2023. 🙂

Thankfully the family I have in Southern California seem to be okay for now; and most of my coworkers seem to be okay since my company is based out of LA. We've had to close 1 store. The photos from there sure are scary and sad.

 

If anyone else here has friends/family there, I hope they're safe and okay. ❤️
