Can I just say, I love how the AIO Tumblr fandom just went and spent several days brainstorming, writing, and posting about what it would be like if the old characters were still around (and/or why they’re not)? Because that just makes me so happy. They’re not forgotten. Even in whatever all is going on in town these days, they’re not forgotten by the fans, and that’s a wonderful thing for an old-fashioned kiddo like me to see.
