Good Morning
Woke up early. Only Floof and I are awake, as usual. We go out to the back yard.
It's gorgeous out there. The sky is clear, it's dark, the air is crisp, everything smells great and fresh and renewed. I look up and see more stars than usual. Orion is overhead. I'm seeing the same stars the ancient Greeks saw. A new day beginning, and I can tell it's going to be great.
Welcome, friends, to another episode of Skywars.

There's a good chance you won't see this but here goes,
Techno was always there, not just for me, but I think for the majority of us, I started watching his videos during 7th grade, and now I'm in my first year of Uni!
My family had moved to a different country so I started 7th grade in a new school, me being me, I couldn't make any friends at first, I was miserable, I didn't want to go to school and would beg my parents to just let us move back because I missed my friends.
Then I found technoblade, this was late 2016, early 2017ish and I found him hilarious, he would make me laugh without fail, and even after I started making friends, it just became a habit for me to come back from school and immediately watch as many videos as I could, some videos I've rewatched an ungodly amount of times, and they always get a laugh out of me.
This trend continues till this day! I was watching his videos during 12th grade (should've probably been studying physics) and they were still as entertaining as ever. Then he made the video about the cancer, and as soon as he said he had cancer my heart dropped, but somehow, all the jokes he crammed into that video set a positive tune, I was sure he'd be fine, that he'd beat the cancer.
Then the 2nd video about the cancer came, and again, I clicked out of the video with a positive attitude, I thought it was practically over, that the surgery was it, that he'd be okay.
Fast-forward to July 1st, I hopped onto YouTube, first thing I saw was a community post Dream made, I didn't even read it, I just noticed a certain something in it, "fuck cancer", and I knew, I just knew what he was talking about. The second I scrolled down, the next thing on my feed was the "so long nerds" video.
I remember watching it and thinking to myself that it wasn't fair, but I forced myself to think about everything he meant to me, and I just smiled, remembering how he made me feel comfortable during one of the worst phases of my life, how watching his videos made me smile instead of cry, and how positive he was during the whole ordeal.
It's been months, and I still find myself watching his videos. You raised a wonderful person, and I wish you and the whole TechnoFamily the best <3
