Looking back at it, the whole scene was pretty weird, slightly c00nish too -- I was up at 4 am, on Skype, eating pocky, watching Crayon Shin Chan with a French transguy who was all the way in California and making a huuuuge deal about how he was wearing nothing but boots.
What was I doing with my life?

When I met him, he was a she. At the time, he didn't come out as trans to me so for all intents and purposes he was simply a tomboy (when he finally did tell me a year later, I told him I wasn't surprised and he cried tears of joy
)

I met him during my 4cac days, I was in a chat with other users and we'd raid other chats and try to ruin people's fun..which was fun for us.
We ended up finding this anime chat full of tumblr users (4cac and tumblr has/had a very serious rivalry), we/they were spamming the chat with beheading videos, 4cac memes and other vile shyt for few days, everyone either blocked us or left and soon enough, I was the only one left along with a few of the other weed.
So after awhile him and I started talking and as time passed enjoyed each other's company.
Again, this is c00nish as fukk but around him I was able to be myself and lower my guard around him (compared to the 4cac group at least), he was a breath of fresh air compared to the other cacs I knew online.

Eventually, I cut off all ties with the 4cacs and for awhile he was my only contact on kik.
Early on, he actually had a crush on me, which explained quite a bit, he loved drawing me, responded to my texts ASAP and always seemed to blush when i'd Skype him, and he had no qualms about being naked when we talked (Cacs gonna Cac, I legit thought it was a French thing). Of course, it took me months to realize after he flat out told me.

We were still cool even after I told him I hated whites and wanted to live away from them,
We were still cool even after I called him a culture vulture (he kept calling me fam and always talked artist #90 below),
Regardless, he helped me accept my non-heteronormative feelings,
He helped me understand what transpeople go through, as much as a cis person can,
He made me think about my militant/justified stance towards race, if only for a minute,
But nah, cacs are devils by nature
