Memory's feelings //shot by shinki
There is a difference between "inspired" & "copied".
-Inspired: Base slight details off of a character/story/etc., but not make them part of the same thing. Example: I was inspired to make Cherry the Librarian as a character for a friend's comic. Cherry was inspired by Patchouli Knowledge, from the Touhou Project. She was made for a different thing than Touhou.
-Copying: Take important details from a character and make them part of the same thing. (cont.) #MemorySpectre

Example: Taking Memory's missing eye, hair tuft, scarf arms, markings on scarf, wound on chest, markings on tail, etc. Or the fiasco with Wolfpaw's OC and Oakfur's OC Kenta. Wolfpaw copied Kenta by making a wolf OC who enjoyed fatty foods, was obese, and had markings akin to Kenta. (But that's over now, I don't know how Oakfur still feels about that)
So, in short, there is a difference. I'm still feeling hurt by the fact that Memory was copied. And the copier (who will remain nameless, you know who you are) did so little to change their Memory clone. I guess I forgive them for /that/, as they've apologized multiple times. But I still cannot trust them.
Secondly. How can I trust them if they're being buddy-buddy with Her? Yes, Her. I've been friends longer with you than Her.

Oh, forgot to finish the example of copying with Memory. The copier made their Memory clone an OFF OC. Memory is an OFF OC.
Anyway, how can I trust you? You might side with Her against me next time something is her fault. Or She might get you to backstab me. Point is, I accept the numerous apologies you've told me, but only for the copying without permission. I just can't accept you being buddy-buddy with Her without feeling scared of pain and betrayal. I'm feeling betrayed. I can't take that. I will continue to speak with you, but not trust you. I can't take much more negative feelings before it drives me off the edge.

take a step back and breath. these emotions do come suddenly, in strong bouts and its hard to control, its good youve vented it out.
although im sure its not with viscious intent at all. it will smooth over soon and you may realise it was only a small issue.
when i was your age i had a friend who tried to imitate my style A LOT. i got really mad about it and treated them pretty badly. many other things happened, i grew purposefully distant and our friendship ended. i dont really regret it (since other not so nice things made me stop the friendship), but i do feel as if i blew the whole thing out of control in the beginning. i feel really stupid about it now hahaa.
sorry for the story time (it probably didnt help) or if im being too harsh X( i cant word things very well sorry
