hey mod, I left this site a while ago but came back recently. I know you aren't active here any more but if you see this what blogs do you use? this blog always made me happy thanks to you.

@hey-doobnnoob is my personal blog

@doobnnoob is my art blog

I may or may not answer any more unrelated questions on here so this one stays as my most recent post

[ask-the-tf2-mercs]

r request open?

asks will always be open, but keep in mind everything is going straight into my drafts (as long as they follow the guidelines ofc) and there's no ETA on when I'll be answering them

currently my schedule is I'll bulk answer them for special occasions or if I really feel inspired to dip back into the TF2 community

my name change was approved :)

I no longer have to use my deadname for anything

[ask-the-tf2-mercs]

OKSAY NO TIME TO EXPLAIN

THE SEVENTH COMIC

ITS OUT

SPREAD THE WORD

It's kinda wild, not gonna lie. I'm more surprised they actually did it than anything.

[ask-the-tf2-mercs]

hey Daniel,

Thank you. Your blog was what introduced me to tumbler and made me create an account. And even as both of us move on from TF2 into new interests I find myself always coming back to this. I (platonically) love you, and I love what you did for me. I came home from school excited to read your posts and I was over the moon the first time I saw my own ask read out. You gave me something to look forward to every day and even if I’m long past my TF2 interest you’ll always have a place in my memory. Thank you for making this blog, and thank you for giving it your very best. But most of all, thank you for drawing the line when you stopped finding joy in it, and taking time for yourself. I’m so glad to see you move on and continue doing something you enjoy, even if it’s different. Thank you for being a part of my life, even if you’re just a stranger online.

been sitting here with this in my inbox, just coming back to read it every so often. I really do appreciate this, a lot

it will never cease to make me happy beyond belief to know that there are people out there who, for starters, still think about me / this blog. but also have such a huge connection to it. it's just a silly headcanon blog on tumblr dot com but it meant a lot to me, and I'm glad it meant a lot to other people as well

I can't express how much getting messages like this means to me, or that I still get asks from time to time. I'd like to come back, some day, but I know it won't be anytime soon

in the meantime, I'm a friendly guy! I'm always willing to just chat via my personal blog if anyone wants to and I encourage it if anyone does! it can be about anything, anonymous or not. and like I've mentioned before, I may set up Webfishing lobbies from time to time if anyone wants to chill and play together

I hope everyone is doing well, and that everyone is doing things they enjoy. stay safe. take care of each other

[ask-the-tf2-mercs]

I don't really have many active followers on my personal account so I'll ask here:

If I were to start posting a room code for Webfishing when I feel in the mood to play with randos, would anyone be interested? I'll probably only post them to my personal ( @hey-doobnnoob ) and I'm gonna have some strict expectations to make sure no one is made to feel uncomfortable but I thought it'd be a kinda fun way to interact with whoever is still paying attention to this account lol

[ask-the-tf2-mercs]

do you plan on doing another mass post day like you did earlier this month?

If I get enough asks built up again and a special occasion rolls around that I feel inspired to do it, sure. I only did it then because it was my birthday and I wanted to do something special

But as it stands, I only got one ask following that and it didn't really abide by the blog rules so I wouldn't hold your breath lol. As is the way of the internet, my blog here became obsolete because it went inactive. It happens, and we just enjoy the time we did have here instead

I'm still active on my art blog and my personal blog, doobnnoob and hey-doobnnoob respectively. But there's no TF2 headcanon posts there I'm afraid

There's a stained and aged letter in the mailbox, addressed to Spy directly. On further inspection, the paper seems almost ancient, even historical. When opened, a rusted roman coin falls out of the envelope, as well as a note, dark and charred...

Prophecy 5004 - "When alle is fayed and all is done, ye must choofe your faces wisely, for soon enouff ye will be playing with fyre."

How odd.

Spy: [looks everything over before taking it all to one of the trashcans outside the base to throw in and then walk back inside] The raccoons can get cursed by whatever this is.

to engineer here is a gift have a good day *in the letter is a very safely contained neutron star and some cookies*

Engineer: Well, I ain't gonna question how you got this.. but I also ain't gonna trust these cookies sittin' so close no matter how contained that was. I mean.. well.. Hells, suppose I dunno if it's safe to eat or not. And there's only one way to find out.. [grabs a cookie to pop into his mouth while he carries it all away]

To engi

Can you settle a debate between me and my friend?

Do you think making mash potatoes with the skin in it is gross? Nobody can give me a good answer.

--Ray and Nightshade

Engineer: Well, I think it all comes down to personal preference.. but if you're askin' for my preference, I like to leave the skin on! Just wash 'em real good first.

[ask-the-tf2-mercs]

Hey pyro!

Who is your favorite merc?

Pyro: [quickly starts scribbling before holding up a picture of Engineer with an arrow pointing at him that says Best Friend!!!]

[ask-the-tf2-mercs]

Hey demo, I know it's wrong to pick favorites, butttt.... which of your co-workers is your favorite? Or at least, most tolerable

Demoman: Oh, don't make me choose. They're all great! [sighs] But, if I must.. Soldier.

[ask-the-tf2-mercs]

Since tomorrow is my birthday, I decided to queue up all the asks stored in my drafts for you guys. Answered and ready to go. Enjoy!

- Daniel
