You are missed. @pyrotrolls-memorial - Tumblr Blog

I made this a while ago and posted it to one of my sideblogs, but I decided it probably belongs here, too.

I wanted to do something in honor of his memory, and art is the only way I know how to do that, so I chose to draw his fursona. He was a fun and amazing person, and I wish I had drawn his 'sona when he was still with us and able to see it.

Pyro was a sweet man. Such a sweet, sweet man. I didn't think I knew him well, that I didn't have the right to voice my pain to the world, but I was on my blog and I just realized how much Pyro thought about me. He always sent me asks when no one else would - he would make sure that I didn't feel lonely. For that, I thank him. Pyro, you will be missed. I hope you live on forever in the hearts of those you touched.

Simon - Pyro’s OCs

Pyro told me about a lot of his original content. I want to share it with everyone else so it can be remembered. This post is about his dnd character Simon.

The link to Simon’s google doc can be found here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hS8jnTD68ndX2M3x4K-y6S0od0qviVN_AUKvJsMWR5w/edit

Here are some extra screenshots of what Pyro told me about him:

I wish I had gotten to play dnd with Pyro. He talked about how he missed it. I would have loved to be in a campaign with him. We all know he was creative and passionate. But I loved his details. I loved how he built everything so carefully. I wish he’d gotten to play again.

So. Here’s Simon. Enjoy him, because he’s fantastic and weird and fun.

#cloud #pyro's ocs

I refuse to say goodbye because I believe that the deceased still live on in our hearts and memories. Even now, you don't feel truly "gone" to me. I feel like I see you in so much, especially in seeing the kindness and dedication that so many people put into honoring your name. No one could've imagined how many people you touched in your life.

Putting words together is hard, given that I tend to not have any when I experience a harder loss. As much as I’d love to write pages upon pages for you, my mind draws a blank. I know that I don’t have to prove how close we were to anyone, but I do hope that my actions so far are able to reach you, somehow.

I’ll grow that Stardew potato farm we always talked so much about making, and it’ll be the best anyone’s ever seen. I’ll learn what I can about anteaters. They never really stuck out to me before, but I’m sure you loved them for a reason. I’ll even try again to give Hajduk an actual design because I know how much you, much to my chagrin, simped for the bastard. I’ll make sure the community you grew and hand-picked is as good as they can be, though gods know that they’ll be able to do that by themselves. It’s been surreal seeing everyone so together, even under these circumstances.

Feelings are... weird, dude. I know that when we discussed polyamory however many times over, it was something that I could wrap my head around, I just struggled to know if it was something that applied to me, after all. As far as I’m concerned, I love a lot of people in a lot of different ways. It’s ironic that we had so many discussions about being honest about thoughts and emotions because you withheld so much for the sake of keeping things calm. I could never tell you because I knew how much of a fresh wound losing Kat was for you. I don’t even know how you managed to do it, but I fell for your soul in a way that was so specific that it’s hard to describe. It was just your spirit, I guess, and while I know we discussed the idea of being something, I never really wondered if you genuinely felt those kinds of ways or realized just how strongly I felt. I know that it didn’t hit me until I’d gotten the call and felt like my soul had been ripped straight from my body.

The last time we ever spoke in DMs, you were so comforting to me, and your faith in me was so clear. You said that I was only going to improve, and gods know that it’s still hard for me to believe, but if I’m not making it true on my behalf, I guess I’ll have to on yours, won’t I?

Whatever happens from here on out, I’ll try to make sure that it’ll be alright. No promises, seeing that I’m only one person, but I keep looking back at the beautiful network and community that you created, and it’s all felt so much more manageable.

You did well, Rhys, and I’m so proud of you for how strong you were up until the end. This is for the sake of myself and anyone else who wondered, but I can see right now where you said that your favorite potato dishes were sweet potato casserole and scalloped potatoes with ham. I’ve got a bag of potatoes in my kitchen right now, I don’t mind cooking a little something for whenever you come around. I just hope no one asks if the shape of a foot happens to appear in the dish.

12thperigeeball

Hello ballgoers.

This is a bit more of a serious post, but one that we felt like would be good to make.

As you guys may know, we lost a beloved member of the fantroll community lately, Rhys of @pyrotrolls. As someone who's been a delight in the community and whose infectious personality has touched all those around him, our community is worse off without him.

This year, we want to make sure that Rhys is remembered and given an opportunity to shine this Christmas season! After speaking with one of his close friends, us here at the 12th Perigee Ball would like to encourage people to throw him a celebration this year! We'd like to link directly to his select page and offer for people go ahead and create artwork with his trolls, nominate his trolls for Ball King, Queen, and Couturier, design them some clothes - so on and so forth.

We plan on inserting more references to him and his work as the event starts, but we'd be pleased to see others participate in bringing his trolls and his memory to the ball in his stead.

Thank you guys so much for your time, and we hope you all stay strong this holiday season. We can't wait to see everyone's work this year, and we hope that Rhys will enjoy the celebration we're throwing for him.

- Mod Cal.

Rhys,

Thank you. Thank you for everything. You didn't know me, but you let me in. I didn't talk much, but you always listened. I was always hiding, but you were always there, waiting with a hand held out and ready to help me peek out from my shell and look at the world around me. You touched lives everywhere you went and I see the impact you left on your loved ones and their loved ones each and every day. You connected us all. You were a pillar in this community and in the lives of your friends, your family. Thank you for all that you have done and all that your influence will continue to do for years to come. We miss you, we remember you, and we will carry you with us until we can meet again.

We will always love you.

- Dahlia

It feels so weird typing this out. like, it isn't real, i, feel like someone is going to tell me it's not true. i wasn't as close as a lot of people to pyro, but he was one of the first who welcomed me to the community with open arms. i saw you as, a close person. someone who i could count on, to help me through some art stuff, or if i was having trouble. i don't, know. you are missed. you were, and will forever be one of the best people this community had.

#testamonials #Bun

I hope it's okay for someone who didn't know Rhys to share something, but...Rhys, I just hope you know that even a stranger can see how much you were loved, and you still are loved. I think I might know how you felt--I never made an attempt, but it got close. I hope that you are in peace, but that you will always know how much you are loved and that the love will never end.

#vitamincoolrnch #Whisper

it feels surreal typing this. numb, in a way. im glad i got to meet pyro while he was here. he brought a lot of us together, and im thankful for that. he was extremely kind and caring... something that seems to be short to come by nowadays. either way, i hope to meet him again

#aesthetictrolls #Whisper

I never really interacted with Rhys, but I followed his work and fell in love with the stories he created with his characters. Each relationship felt important for every character, and to say I thought he was talented and skilled with everything he did is an understatement. When I found his blog it got me back into writing my own stories again, and even though I moved away from Homestuck I still credit him for helping me get to a better point in my life. Rhys was a skilled creator, and it breaks my heart to know that one of my greatest inspirations is gone. I hope to one day match the skills he had, and to look back and hope that his memory is carried on by the people that cared and treasured him. While I may not have known him as well as others, he touched my life with his works of art. Rest in peace.

I may not have been as good of a friend to pyro as others here in this group, but this hit hard. Pyro was an amazing person who loved his friends to the stars and back and while we're still here, he's not hurting anymore. He doesn't have to feel alone or outcast or pain anymore. And that's all we could ask for him. This had me going back through our chats and back before I had to leave, pyro and I were talking about trying to get a ship set up between a couple of our characters....I thought everyone would like to laugh with me about the thought of a 4'6" lime climbing Ektele like a tree in their little red riding hood Halloween costumes.

We'll miss you pyro

I didn't know Pyro too well at all, but my friends were close with him. I may not have interacted with him much, but I looked up to him. I felt like my heart was being ripped out when I heard about his passing. I didn't know him well, but I loved him all the same. He was, by all accounts, a good man, and the world is a darker place without him. My heart goes out to everyone who was close to him. You live on in all of us. Rest in peace, Rhys. You are loved, and you are missed.

i remember the other day when i learned kinsra was colorblind i went and threw his talksprites into one of those filters to see what he thought his outfit looked like and since hes weak red/green colorblind he, yknow, looked the same and i was like. goddammit im stupid. i didnt tell pyro about me doing that. i think pyro woulda found it funny.

I wasn't too close to Pyro, but my bf was. I had started following his blog after my bf found it and started talking to him. He invited me to his server and I ended up being in a call with him at some point. I only talk to him the once time and I regret not talking to him more. He seemed so cool, and he had such a welcoming energy to him. All of his characters had such a cool vibe too and I wanted to interact with him more and I really wish I had. I had no clue what he was going through. I can only hope he's in a better place now. Rest easy, Pyro

Okay. It took me a night of half-okay sleep to find some courage to write this.

First, I don't get close to people, generally. I've been on the Internet for too long. I've been roleplaying for over 20 years. And I am very selective nowadays about who I let in.

But I couldn't keep you out. Our chats, our roleplays, your general attitude, everything about you made me want to trust you and be your friend. I'm really happy we became friends and that we roleplayed together for over 2 years. I'm happy we shipped together. I'm happy we talked together.

Which is why your death is hitting me harder than I thought it would. I thought I was detached, that I didn't care about people on the net, but you hella proved me wrong there, Rhys. I care. And I cared so much about you, you have no idea.

I wish you would have reached out to me. Maybe I wouldn't have been to help, but I would have loved to try and lessen your burden in any way I could have. I loved you man. I can't pretend you were just an internet friend.

You were a friend. A real one. I loved our talks, whether they were about IC things or OOC stuff. We may not have been the closest but I truly considered you one of my friends. I will miss you, and I hope you found the peace you deserved. You were so much more than a rp buddy, so much more than an art buddy. Not only to me but to this community. You were a beautiful soul, creative, a ray of light and a pillar in this community. Your kindness and generosity knew no bounds. Rest easy, Pyro. You'll never be forgotten.

Pyro was the kind of person that made you feel like family no matter how long you knew him. Although I followed his blog for a long time, we didn't really start to talk and get to know each other until about 4-5 months ago, maybe six months. However, despite only really knowing him for less than a year, I feel like I've lost a large piece of myself with his passing. I keep expecting to hear from him and that this isn't real.

I loved getting to know him. I loved his stories about things that happened to him at work, hearing about his pets and seeing pictures of them, seeing pictures of new hairstyles he got and clothes he bought. I loved getting to know his trolls and plotting with him and seeing his art. He was incredibly talented, funny, creative, kind, sweet, and friendly. He was such a great person in the community that even people that didn't really know him could feel the weight of his loss.

He was truly a one of a kind person, and there will never be another one of him. We all loved him and cherished his friendship, and we're going to miss him.

I love you, Pyro. You'll never be forgotten.
