What good leader doesn't have their own subjects?
Use this as a quick guide to get to know some of my collaborators and co-conspirators, test subjects and lab rats, friends and enemies. Mostly just cool people I adore.
Absolutely in a particular order...
A Confidant, A Collaborator, a Muse, an Inspiration. Words cannot encapsulate Kylie's raw aura and presence. A fellow schemer to the core, if I am working on something, you can assume she either already knows or is somehow involved.
1st of 3 creative minds I consider a true equal, she pushes me to be wacky and silly in all my creative endeavors. Without her influence, I would not be who I am today. She takes at least 11.47% of the credit for anything I come up with.
(for legal reasons, that is a joke. Kylie Jedediah Ryland is owed no financial compensation if any future works of Levi Green turn a profit. She takes 11.47% credit in words only, not in practice.)
When I picture pure Kindness, Passion, Heart, Joy, and Perseverance in this world, I picture Corinne Stackpole, a dear friend of mine. And right after her, I picture Lui. A lifelong pal, he is 2nd of 3 considered a creative equal. a powerhouse in comedy, the goofiest guy I know, and a real pleasure to be around
Often skeptical of my machinations, though always there when I need him to be, Lui is a true friend. He does not receive 11.47% credit of my plots, though he gets $10B in imaginary "Levi Points", patent pending
Wow.
He is Him
3rd of 3, Jesse is who/what I aspire towards. The scheming, plotting, machinating, chicanery, mischief, deception, shenanigans, monkey business, subterfuge, trickery, skullduggery, hijinks, misdoings, rascality, roguery, devilry, and all around frolicsomeness is a constant source of inspiration, and goal to aspire to.
In both the literal and metanarrative sense, Tristan is the Straight Man™ in my life. He's been there through basically everything, for a period he was my landlord, and his intelligence mirrors my own to an often infuriating degree.
I owe him a lot, he occasionally gives me the urge to bare knuckle brawl, final rating is 8.2/10. Would Recommend.
One of the more recent-ish additions to my close social circle, we share a passion in talking incessantly about basically any topic. I don't have as much to say for Aiden, he's just a really good dude, and I'm excited to see where he goes in life.
I think he functions as a sort of Great Equalizer, close with everyone, and makes anyone immediately feel welcomed.
Our friendship really escalated quickly over like, a two month span. Out of almost nowhere, she has became one of my biggest confidants, and a constant source of support.
Don't let her know this, but she may be my favorite of the discord gang. I'm not sure where her nickname of me ("little gay one") came from, but it has admittedly grown on me.
Australian* :(
Shayla is my favorite person ever. Sorry y'all, it is what it is. Not a day goes by where I don't feel so proud of her and how far she's come, and I know she feels similarly towards me.
She has shaped my love of art and media, my humor, my mannerisms, my sensibilities, and my general me-ness more than anyone ever has, all in the best ways. This box was just an excuse for me to rant and rave about how much I love Shayla, soooo hi girly, I know you're embarrassed right now and looking away scoffing.
