back, kind of
I'm back, but don't expect me to be very active or do anything more than post a comment here and there
old ideas that could have been
hey, so I've been lurking on the wiki since I left and I decided to go and do a cleanup on some character pages I had stuff on. I'm quite surprised those Gumball and Dexter pages I posted in the early 2010s are still up with little to no changes. it felt like I was opening a time capsule.
