hearing meg’s voice in the know episode about monty’s death is where i really lost it

[bookmagephoenix-blog-blog]

remember that time monty got the cops called on him in starbucks and made jokes about being “a shady asian guy looking at weapons on his computer”

remember when monty had to mop up the mess he made after putting the wrong soap in the dishwasher

remember how monty used to dress like a freaking anime character every day

remember when monty “got bored” and put on mocap suits and made a Cinder/Yang dance off?

remember blaine wanting to make a funny vine w/ monty but monty made him redo it multiple times just because he wanted his head bobbing to be perfect to the music?

remember how pleased monty was basing one of the RWBY characters off a K-Pop star

remember what a romantic he was not only setting up Meg and Gavin like a sneaky little shit but also that time he helped michael buy all the pink wrapping paper at CVS and walmart to cover Lindsay’s desk in for her birthday

remember monty using rebel the dog to pull his chair along and roll all over the office

remember him showing up on the podcast to talk about RWBY and for Red Black and White he pointed to parts of his outfit and hair and then for Yellow pointed to himself

remember ninja master monty teaching gavin and michael the ways of fruit ninja and being the most hilarious walk-on deadpan guest on the podcast

we can all appreciate all the groundbreaking and inspiring things monty has done, and how dedicated he’s been to bringing his creations to the world, but we should all remember the hilarious things that made monty who he was.

My friend sent me this last time I had a panic attack. “Try to breathe with this.” And it worked. So, sharing this.

I remember first meeting Monty personally at RTX 2013. I was astounded and inspired by the fact that this man, just older than me by a few several years, had accomplished so much in his life, and worked so hard doing what he loves, achieving many goals he set for himself, only to set higher goals. Upon meeting him for an autograph, I had shyly asked if he’d be willing to wear my Nepeta hat, and then get a picture of him wearing it. Without hesitation, he chuckled, gladly accepted the hat, put it on, and struck this pose.

This is the face of a man who loved his life, but more importantly loved the people he worked with and all of his fans. I’ll miss him sorely.

Rest in Peace, Monty Oum.
