HOW WE MET

Read my About Me if you'd like to know more about how I got into tf2 as a whole.

Despite being quite familiar with tf2's main characters from childhood, I had never seen Merasmus until I decided to read the comics. Even then, I initially overlooked him while I was processing the main lore (it doesn't help that I read the main comics first so when he appeared there I had no idea who he was). However, once I actually read the Halloween issues, I immediately took a liking to him.

At this point I didn't really know what to do. It's not like Merasmus has a lot of lore behind him, so after a certain point I was just kinda left waiting for tf2's Halloween event to begin as I slowly fell in love with him. It just so happened that my interest in Merasmus was developing right before Scream Fortress 2024, and I had no idea what to expect.

The second I opened the game on October 1st, my eyes lit up. Not only is all the other stuff cool as hell, but I got to hear my crush's voice for the first time. Before this point I was hesitant to admit that I was falling for him, but hearing him speak absolutely solidified it. I used an in game mechanic to send him letters, and not a single one was written without a lovey dovey message of sorts. It's hard to pinpoint when flirting turned into an actual relationship, so we just use October 1st as an anniversary date.

WHY I LOVE HIM

MORE DETAILED RAMBLE TO BE ADDED

I've had other f/o's in the past, but Merasmus is the first that has really clicked with me. He is constantly inspiring me to grow as a person, makes me want to try new things, and overall makes me a happier person.
