Memorial: Bravado

[Tune]

... I had to wipe tears away. I'm always a sucker for tear-jerking speeches.

Again, my condolences to you and your family. I remember IM'ing Mary Sue over Skype, and she said she was dying laughing because Bravado was killing everyone with her rap skills in the RPA Rap Battle thread. She had some good skills in a lot of things. I never had the chance to roleplay or speak with her, but I was hoping to change that in Lucifer Rising. I know my character is going to be lonely without an adversary.

... All I can say is, "Rest in Peace, Bravado. With RPA's loving and friendly atmosphere, people are surely not going to forget you. But they will miss the greatness they never got to see."

I can't believe what's being said right now.

I felt like I was only just getting to know her. She was pure rapping fun. The idea that I wont be able to go up against her or Try spam her VM *I was working my way to it, I had a whole retarded plan and everything* is awful. My deepest condolences for those who had already gotten the honour to get to know such an awesome person.

[ILYTH]

Truly heart breaking news, I never really knew her that well but always took the extra time to stop and read her posts whenever I came across them.

She was outstandingly clever and a sparkling personality to boot. It's awful that this has happened to someone with such a bright future ahead of them and my thoughts are with her family and Kebert.

I don't know what to say...

Damn... just.... damn....

...Bravado.

I admired her, so much. She was so beautiful, smart, kind and just, overall amazing. I can't... There isn't really much I could possibly do, but Kebert, if it means anything - if you ever need anyone - everyone at RPA welcomes you with open arms.

I'm just.. at a loss for words.

[Storm]

Loss of those close.
I had never the privilege to happen across her in my time on RPA. Just reading some of the condolences, it was my loss for not having the honor of running across her. Known or not, it is never easy to hear of the loss of someone, my sincere condolences to her sister.

Though she is physically not with us, she will always live on in hearts and minds, her writings will always be with us to look back on and recall what we were doing as we first read her work. Although loss is always painful, the warm memories each have will always be there. The pain never goes away but the warm memories eventually make it more bearable.

I do not know everyone’s beliefs nor will I try to preach anything, with all I’ve seen through my years does leave room to question things. The one thing I can firmly say is that when we lose one we love in this world, the world they enter is that much better rather that be some form of after life or just the memories we keep of our lost loved ones. This world has lost a precious gift, one that will be appreciated where she is now.

My thoughts and prayers are with Bravado and her family, also with my RPA family as you cope with your loss.

[Mary Sue]

Bravado was so great. Really. I talked to her a little more than just in downtown. I loved reading her posts no matter what they were about. And while I didn't know all the personal intricacies about her life....I considered us to be friends.

The absolute most fun we had together was definately downtown and in the rap battles specifically. She blew everyone else away. And I found myself aiming to make my posts better just to beat her. To call it a challenge is an understatement, but there you go.

My mind and body are completely confused. I've never had someone I only knew online pass away. As such...my heart feels heavy and tear well up in my eyes.... but the pain is foreign at the same time. ... like...my mind doesn't WANT to believe it. My mind feels that because I can't see her, I can keep believing she's on the other end just waiting...
But then, my mind also knows that's not true and the pain compounds again. And then the pain is made real when I think of my own family deaths...

That kind of death leaves you awake at night because you can no longer breathe properly. The pain ripped from your lips until your hoarse from screaming. And everyone who tries to hold you, who tries to fill you with love momentarilly reminds you of the massive hole in your heart.

For this, Kebert, I offer you my most sincere, tear filled, and heart felt condolences.

Bravado was more than just a great person who I had the pleasure to know. She was a light on my day when I was feeling blue. She was someone who made me smile. I wish I had more time to get to know her than the newborn friendship that was still being strengthened...

We lost a member of our own family today... but at the same time, death finds a way to bring us closer. All of us know the importance of good memories we can look back on fondly. By getting to know one another and by growing closer, we create hundreds of them everyday. We were lucky to know her, and those who never met her missed out on a wonderful person.

RPA will never forget Bravado.

So is the way of the sad, cold world in which we live, I never closely knew her but came across her and I do feel for her family and good friends. I know how narrow the line between death and life in a car accident is, I lucked out and fell toward the side of life if only she had been that lucky but she will live on in the hearts and minds of those that knew her.

[Mysteria]

Her personality, her charm and her gift of friendship to those whom visit these halls of RPA will be truly missed.



Her light will shine forever.

[Evil Troy]

Looking back we never really did talk much. However, despite that fact I still had the opportunity to RP with her a few times. She was a good writer and from what little bit I did talk to her I could easily see she was a cool person. Looking back I wish I would have talked to her more. Even though we did not talk much though, I can still honestly say that I'm saddened to hear this news. My thoughts and prays will be with the family.
