I didn't know that well, but we had some good chats in the SB over the years. Whether it was a debate over pancakes vs waffles, or her work on her minion gallery, she was always happy to share and participate in the community.
I think people need a place to come together. Share stories and experiences and support each other. Ping whoever you feel would like to share or reach out.

She was happy. Always. I can't think of many times that she had gotten upset that didn't involve animals being hurt.

And she was loved. Almost no one met her that did not fall in love with her.

She was my Goofleluffe, my sweet ptotato. My mal. And she was amazing.

I had known her since I joined Subeta, nearly 12 years ago this month. Or so, that's how long it seems. We became very close friends. Back then, she was a bit more... sharp tongued. Especially in the Shout Box.

And lets face it, she was a smart... alex. That was one of the things that my wife liked about her.

But when it came down to it... she was always willing to lend a hand if she could.

I really don't know what I did the earn the affection of such an amazing woman. But I cherished it. Every day. We cherished each other.

There are things that happened in our short life lived together that, at first seemed like a tragedy, but I soon realized was a blessing.

The first was her loosing her job here.

While it was amazing to work together, it was so much better, and so much what she wanted, to be my little house wife. She would tell me. And she got what she wanted. Always.

Another was when our house mate and home made family moved out.

We loved him, and we missed him severely. But We had a chance to live with just us.

And We loved Us.

I knew Mallory as a positive presence in the SB, prone to impromptu moments of mischievous generosity. It was only recently that we'd begun to chat a bit offsite, mostly about battle and books. I can't say I knew her well, but I knew she was a beacon of kindness and joy in this community.

We weren't really close friends but we still talked regularly, she was always so nice and understanding to me when I complained about things everyone else thought was silly, she made me feel like my feelings were valid and that my opinions mattered, and even when she did think I was overreacting or being silly, she still understood why.

And she would sometimes send me items that I said I needed as well even when I was open to buying or trading. One time she asked me if I wanted a CW after I was upset about something and I told her two I liked for her to choose from and she got them both for me.

I don't remember the last thing I said directly to her, but the last thing I said in her presence was to do with the most recent Token Shop restock, I think, about how I thankfully wasn't too late to get the beautiful new background, and that I didn't need much else because it wasn't also food and the item that was an edible wearable was one I had in the wardrobe already.

I wish I could have said goodbye to her properly, but no one knew this would happen.

Mallory honestly all I could say was that Everytime she was in the SB she made it worth while honestly she was like the Sun on a Rainyday and honestly I will never forget her presence that and Skye's and Alonnia they were the best of the best :)

True it was like the same thing for my Dog and Bunny

Mallory was my buddy. She was my go-to person when I had questions about pets on Subeta. She was very attached to her pets. She was very proud of them. I loved to talk to her about them because I, too, am very attached to my Subeta pets, and Mallory was the person I knew would be up for talking about them whenever.

Most of our private conversations revolved around that, Subeta pets. But sometimes, we talked about important things, like politics or views of life. Then again, sometimes we'd talk about nothing at all; just talking about silly, small things. She was special in that way. Really easy to get along with. Her sense of humor was the thing I adored about her. She loved to laugh. She loved to make others laugh. I will never forget that.

Honestly, I had very little personal interaction with her, but I remember how much my parent liked her. The one or two times I spoke to her since creating this account, it was enjoyable and worth while. I hope the rainbow bridge serves her well

i've been a member of sub for 10 years now and i met Mal in the SB at the beginning of this awesome journey. it's incredible how she lifted the spirits of everyone present with her kindness and enormous heart. seeing her Minion collection grow was such a blast and she would always share her progress with us. she was super proud of her pets and she managed to reach and make a bunch of happy customers with her overlays and art.

Mal, i'm gonna keep our talks and interactions in a special spot in my heart. thank you for being one of the greatest people to me and a lot of us in here. i love you, we love you. you'll be greatly and forever missed. thank you, thank you, thank you Mal. ❤️

Maybe this thread is what you'd like to read?

I'm honestly in shock to find out she's passed away. Just a week ago she helped me with a gift of something I was saving for. And less time ago than that we were talking about our battle pets taking on Keel battles. But mostly what I'll remember on here is her through the years. Those silly HAs, the times she got a bit awnry and banned a few times even. And the spam gifts oh she could hit you fast with 200+ items from that random gift function. She and I shared a few key events with each other through our 20s, more so once we found out we were the same age. Though we never bonded we still were internet buddies and there's nothing that is ever going to replace her. Ree my dear sly witted pal you're going to be missed. After this Keelhaul is never going to be the same. Not for me.

Not me over here crying. You all are amazing <3

Wow. I feel like she was just here and then... not. I must say I'm shocked, especially since we were growing to be friends. She definitely proved to be kind and caring, just as others have said in this thread. I wish she had more time.

we were just starting to talk and then I fell out of contact because I've been ill with infections all year

feel like I'm stuck in a dimension where I can still feel her aura and there's no absence of her color and it's frightening that it's not here anymore. it doesn't feel good I woke up shaking and my mind keeps shifting to it

I hope she knew even tho we didn't talk for super long that I considered her a friend and I'm sorry I never responded to her last discord or updated her on moira or thanked her for the last sticker she gave me

I didn't know mallory that well, but I saw her in the sb from time to time. It's a shock that she's gone.

She had an unknown condition and passed suddenly. So she really was just here and then...gone. :'(

It's like the Disney star Cameron Boyce basically.

This was sad and shocking news to hear. I didn't know Mallory well, but I do know she made awesome overlays, she made two for my pets, and I truly cherish them. She will be missed. :(

I'm amazed at how hard I've cried at this news. Mal was always sending me stickers. One day I thanked her and she said "you're welcome for the stickers. ;u; You were honestly my first friend on this site" I'm going to miss those sticker alerts, she made me feel seen. And now I understand why I'm crying like this.. I'll cherish my sticker collection<3<3<3

I honestly don't know what to say... I'm still kinda in shock that she's gone. I didn't know her as well or for as long as some people here did as I've only been on the site since 2016ish. What interactions I did get to have with her though she always seemed so nice. She never acted anything but supportive and sweet when my Grandpa passed in 2018 or when our 4.5 year old beagle passed in 2019. She was always gifting people, even if it was something inexpensive like stickers. She'd actually recently sent me 3 and when I commented thanking her for them and never got a reply.. I should have known something was wrong, because it was so unlike her. If she saw someone that had been having a crappy day or week or whatever in the SB she always made a point of trying to cheer them up, whether it was by chatting or sending a gift or sticker (sometimes anon). I don't know if she considered me a friend or not but I like to think so because I considered her one. Frankly had it not been for Mal, I probably wouldn't know most of the people I consider friends on here because I was too afraid to interact with much of anyone when I first joined the site. Sadly I'd only recently realized I'd never actually sent her a friend request and finally sent her one, which she rather quickly accepted. She's definitely gone much too soon and the site will be a much less bright place for it, though honestly I'm not sure it ever would have felt like enough time for anyone who knew her no matter how much time we would have gotten. It will be so weird to have Lumi this year without her and our gifting wars, it was one of the bright spots of my online holiday season.

Oh my,, I don't interact so I didn't know her, but I'm asimply lmost crying while reading your texts guys. :,( You're amazing, you deserve her.

I just found out about this the other day. I will definitely miss her. She was one of my first friends here. And she and I had so much in common. We are both very snappy and dont take crap. She was so generous with her gifting and she was so fun. I'm not particularly good with this kind of stuff. I wish I had spent more time on here in recent years to talk with her. We miss you Mal.

I haven't been as active on site as I was once so I only just found out about passing. I just wish I knew what happened exactly because she never mentioned being sick or anything like that. She was one of my first friends on here, Back then she just had a didn't give a crap attitude and always said what was on her mind. I knew her as Ri, Most folks didn't care for her nature at that time but it was what drew me to her because she seemed so fearless. Sharp tongued and quick witted, That was my mal pal. To me she was always kind and she always stood up for me and she helped me to make new friends. We had a group and we used to frequent the shoutbox together, I actually felt like I belonged somewhere for the first time ever and like I mattered.

She was always sending gifts and doing what she could to make everyone happy, I'll always remember her love of minions, I helped her add quite a few to her collection as I enjoyed hunting for the more rare ones and surprising her.

There's so much I could say about Mallory and so many memories.....

I miss you deeply my friend and I am sorry that I didn't get the chance to talk to you much before you passed. Love you always and forever <3

Hey ! Hope this doesn't cause confusion, but I'm doing some clean up and wanted to let you know I moved this over the Small Talk.
