Szóval az van, hogy múlt héten volt kereken 10 éve, hogy legutóbb Magyarországon járt a Nine Inch Nails. A kerek évfordulóra egy minszki srác összeszedte a létező összes videót a koncertről és csinált belőle egy remek koncertfilmet. Nem volt még időm végignézni, itt-ott beletekertem és hát ömlenek az emlékek meg az érzelmek. Ez volt a harmadik NIN-koncertem. Mindegyik különleges volt valami miatt, de csak más az, amikor a városodban játszanak (a 2007-es Sziget idején még nem éltem Budapesten, 2009-ben kezdtem el ott dolgozni, most már megint nem ott vagyok). Munka után siettem a SYMA Csarnokhoz, végre személyesen is megismertem olyan embereket, akikkel már online évek óta tartottam a kapcsolatot a NIN mánia miatt. Eltelt 10 év és azóta is rendszeresen találkozunk. Hallottuk a soundcheket, egy pillanatra láttuk is. Aztán bent brutális erők tomboltak, kb. 3500-an voltunk, de piszok erős közönség volt. A zenekar meg... nyilván fantasztikus volt.

Finished this one! Didn't actually take that long. Wished I'd made the details and relationship sections bigger and shrunk the team bit, but oh well.

Mr Syma in all his glory. He's charismatic, friendly, rebels against his rich parents and loves his pokemon. He likely has other pokemon, but I haven't decided what yet. He doesn't have much of a story rn since Scarlet and Violet aren't out yet lmao. Did wonder if he'd join Team Star but haven't decided yet. I'll wait until I play Violet.

His team rn consist of Quince, the sprigatito (his starter from Uva). Quince looks cute here but he's a spiteful lil kitty who hisses at anyone he doesn't trust. Didn't get along with Syma at first, but they reached a friendship. Lazslo, the shiny meowth (Kantonian, more of a pet). Syma got Lazslo as a young child and they've been thick as thieves since then. Lazzie is very much an emotional support pokemon. And Milkshake, the shiny giratina! Ain't that a weird one? Syma inherited Milkshake from his ancestors, Halcyon and Volo. Specifically, Hal caught the giratina from an ultra wormhole. Milkshake was pretty confused after being in statis for 200 years, but he gets along with Syma. Loves his cooking.

Relationship wise we got: Fans- Kyuna, Nessie and Mossy (discord friends who have the hots for him lol) Paternal Aunt- Cynthia. Syma admires her and likely gets a gabite from her. Ancestors- Halcyon and Volo. Hal is my PLA sona and Volo is my husband so ofc. They're his... greatx3 grandpas I believe? Boyfriends- Wren, my partner's sona and Arven! Casual/FWB- Professor Turo and Brassius. What can I say? Syma likes em older. Probably add more to the list after more npcs are revealed lol

Not too much else to say. He wears his pins on the orange flap of the jacket. He has claws and fangs as inherited from Hal's genes. His face is very Volo-like. He dyes his fringe to suit his outfit. Sometimes his eyes glow, y'anno. Normal stuff!
