Alright dudes, mun here. I’ve been delaying saying this for a little while now, but I figure you guys ought to know what’s going on.

I don’t think it’ll come much as a surprise to anyone that I’m officially stepping off this blog. Time and time again I’ve claimed to return, only to go silent for another couple months before I come crawling back. I really did try to get myself back into writing Samus, but the spark is just gone. It’s not the fault of the roleplaying community I’ve come to know. Even if Metroid fandom is tiny and quiet, I could have found enough characters to entertain myself with if I really wanted. I can’t really explain why I lost the muse, it just happened a long time ago. I’ve found a new muse, but I first lost interest in Sammy way before I made the account for them.  All I know is I’m happier on that blog than I’ve been here, and I really don’t have time in my life to manage more than one active roleplaying account. 

It kills me to say this because I know some people who did love my Samus and who will be saddened to see me go, but I just can’t keep trying to force this muse. So, I’m going to disappoint you just one last time instead of over and over again. I know you all can find new Samuses to fill my place who will be great partners for each of you.

Farewell, Metroid roleplaying community. It was nice to get to know you guys. Good luck with your muse’s and your own future endeavors.

Samus was only just arriving to get some after work relaxation time in before she returned to where Rundas was probably waiting for her. There were so many people coming and going out of the bar already that she had nearly missed him too. But after he walked by, the thought back to the glance she got at his face. Holy shit. The bastard was here, probably to spy on her and do something awful when her guard was down. If he was trying to play it quietly right now, she could try and do the same. No need to cause a panic so soon in a place so crowded with thugs.

She swiftly turned back around and walked to his side by taking a firm grip of his shoulder. “Did you really think such a poor disguise would be enough to fool me?”

Feeling her hand take hold of his shoulder, he froze in place, back straightened at the unexpected, sudden touch. It wasn’t the same sensation as when a random brute picked a fight with him in a bar, he had no problem taking care of those. This was… well, Samus Aran.

“Wha-” He turned to her, eyes a bit widened in surprise. What did she want? Hearing her words, he had to raise both of his eyebrows. Had she recognized him? As far as he knew, they hadn’t even talked yet, let alone got to know each other. Did she look up some information about him? He would have to check the rankings again, who knew, maybe the past few months had propelled him to the top ten.

“You… you know who I am?” He asked, genuinely wondering.

Samus had been absolutely certain this was her nemesis, and yet the first seed of doubt was planted in her mind the moment they made contact. She felt that shiver pass through his spine that left him stiff as a board. That wasn’t just the surprise of being caught. That felt like genuine fear, something Ridley never would have displayed. Even if he didn’t want to see a plan fail because of her, he would have only cackled and reveled in her discovery, maybe even challenge her to a battle then and there. Was he really so devoted to staying hidden this time that he would play dumb even when caught?

Her confusion caused her grip to let up slightly and her expression to soften just a bit. “Of course I know who you are,” she answered. “You can’t fool me again. You’re Ridley.” Aren’t you...?

When Mr. Kendrick spoke again, he almost sounded heartbroken, and it only made samus want to roll her eyes. Jeez. Maybe he really was some kind of crazed fan to be this hurt over his idol forgetting him. It only got worse as he seemed to start to cry. That was her signal to definitely abandon ship, and she was just about to back off and find something else to pay attention to when she noticed him seeming to remove something from his eyes.

At the sight of those horridly familiar gold eyes, Samus’s body went rigid, not with fear, but a rage that she could barely contain. How dare he follow her here. Did he know she was supposed to be here, or did he only come to harass the guests in the first place and this was all some terrible coincidence, another cruel twist of fate that brought them together yet again. Well, she wasn’t about to let him ruin this night for anyone else. 

All desire for subtlety went out the window. In the middle of everything and everyone, Samus summoned her suit, and in a flash of light, she transformed from the elegant party guest to the warrior Ridley knew best. She made a move to grab his neck, her cannon already taking aim for his head.

Oh, that dismissive look in her eyes as he complimented her… and that sudden amused, almost cocky smile when he stumbled upon his words. Gods, she was hell-bent on making everything harder for him! How was he supposed to pretend, to disguise himself as a mere civilian when she was challenging him with her behavior? He bit his tongue to stop himself from grinning like a madman, doing his best to stay in character.

“…To be fair, you are most commonly associated with battle… otherwise you would be getting much more attention, of that I’m sure.” He explained with a small grin, albeit not quite confident as before. “…Now don’t misunderstand me, that doesn’t stop you from looking… um, elegant.”

He tugged the collar of his shirt, avoiding her gaze for an instant. “The name is Liam Kendrick, Although I doubt it rings any bells. I’m just a… fan of yours.” He chuckled softly, tilting his hat down as if trying to regain his composure.

“Actually… now that I think about it, we might have met before.”

Ridley was right to feel insulted. As far as Samus knew, he was just another dweeb with his tongue on the floor, the kind of guy she crushed under her heel at bars all the time. It was only because he was acting so meek now that she still had the mercy not to dismiss him entirely. “Of course. Avoiding more attention is exactly what I’m trying to do. Imagine what a pain it’d be to have a whole swarm of guys bothering me.” She took another sip of her drink, closing her eyes to very intentionally look away from him for a moment. “Despite my job, I still know how to clean myself up for an event like this.”

She listened as he gave his name, that same sort of bored look still in her eyes. “Well, Mr. Kendrick, I had no doubt you were a fan of mine.” Just what type of fan was the question. Was he the sort who idolized her as a hero, a legend, or was he the sort to spend his nights alone in his bed, jacking off to thoughts of her whenever a new picture of her was released to the public.

The last thing he said, however, made her quirk her eyebrow curiously before she shrugged. “Maybe. I’ve met a lot of people over the years. I’m afraid you didn’t quite stick to my memory though. Maybe you can give me a little reminder.”

Clearly she knew. To think that such a battle machine retained this elegance. Like a diamond personified, the hardest of gems and yet the one that shined the brightest too, breaking the nails of every hand that dared touch her. And it all made her even more valuable in the eyes of a pirate.

“…I didn’t stick to your memory…” He repeated those words pensatively, eyes still looking down and covered by the peculiar wide-brimmed hat. He knew that the only reason she hadn’t recognized him already was that he was disguised, but those words stabbed into him, reminding him of something else. Another soft chuckle left his breath. “How sad.”

He felt a tingling sensation in his fingers, his breathing becoming shaky and his heart beating faster. He could not bear it any longer. “…Oh, please, don’t look. I- I just have something in my eyes…”

He covered his face, his thumb and index finger pressed carefully against his own eyes, only to uncover them immediately. The next time he raised his gaze, however, her eyes would be met by his. That golden iris burning with excitement, surrounded by its unsettling black sclera. Grinning madly, he spoke from the heart.

“…You have not left my mind for one second.”

Hey Crabsworth, why did you join Samus?

Oh, a question for me? What a surprise! Due to the size of my claws, I am incapable of typing a response to this, so I am having the onboard computer named Adam transcribe my speech for me.

It’s really quite simple. My race was meant to follow the most capable leader. Samus, the hunter, is the strongest and most cunning being I know, strong enough to best the entire organization of the Space Pirates time and time again. Why would I swear my loyalty to those who fall before her? Only fools align themselves with losers. One day I finally realized this and sought her out, and she was gracious enough to accept my service to her. It was the best decision I ever made, as she is a most benevolent leader. I truly hope more of my kind will make the same realization I did and come to add to her army.

hey samus i will give you a BILLION SPACE DOLLARS if you give me a high five. if you don't want the high five, you can still have the BILLION SPACE DOLLARS if you want.

Somehow I doubt that you actually have that much money to give me, but hey, I’m not opposed to giving a fan a high-five for free.

I mean, if you really do have a billion credits to give me, I wouldn’t say no to it either.

Christmas with family.

[hatchlinghunter]

Can you draw Samus in an ugly Christmas sweater por favor??

Yeah, Samus ain’t too happy about it. The only thing worse than a bad Christmas sweater: a bad Christmas sweater with a pun on it.

Happy holidays and Merry X-mas everyone!

I won’t be here for two week so I will see you in the new year.
