Farewell messages to Vesper Noir

Misfortune’s Herald

To my favourite adopted Grandpa and Scholar of Guild Tempus - Ah, where do I even begin. You may, perhaps, have been the strangest person I have ever had the pleasure to meet, but in my world, there is no bigger compliment than that. If I could say one thing about your streams and why I watched them, it would have been this - because you were you, with your stories that maybe no one else could tell like that, and an attitude that I can only describe as genuine. You didn't hide your happiness, your wonder, but also your struggles (and sometimes, the psychic damage from certain collabs...), and your laughter was infectious. Traits that seem to be rare in people, somehow. I'll have you know that I did actually stay up until 7 am just so that I could hear you die from eating stupidly spicy hot wings for your monetisation. I hope that makes you proud somehow - or at least makes you question my sanity. I also remember that you always tried your best to interact with chat, and of all my comments you could have noticed... you happened to catch the one where I asked "Does he even read dialogue anymore" after a very stupid West of Loathing part (dies from cringe). I'm still not sure whether to be happy that senpai noticed me or to hide my head in shame, but I do hope you know it was well intentioned! There are so many other legendary moments that I'd want to mention, from your psychiatry side job to your artist arc, your interviews with your guild mates, but I don't have the space. But I've loved them all, and I hope that you had at least as much as a fraction of the fun streaming these things as I had watching them. Alas, we have come to the end of the journey. I didn't think or hope I'd write these words so soon, but, well, sometimes that's how the dice roll and the story goes. From one LotR fan to another, I'll leave you with this - "Roads go ever on and on / Under cloud and under star"... Take care out there, and all the best.

I've been an Uncle Nowa fan from the start. When TEMPUS debuted, he's the one that caught my attention! His design reminded me to some series I used to watch as a kid back in the 2000s. As a nearly 30 years old old hag, I could relate to his sense of humour. I also could relate to some of his stories, as wild as that sounds. He brought me so much comfort and happiness with his streams. In fact, he's the only VTuber that I ended up both donating AND paying membership. No one captured my heart as much as him, and it was always a delight to see his streams when I had lunch. Although in still saddened that he graduated so suddenly, I wish him the best, and I also wish the best to my fellow Vesties too!. Farewell, Vesper Noir! May your spear live forever in our hearts. You will be forever my one and only kamioshi!

Hello Vesper, Watching you always made me feel comfortable, and I really enjoyed the stories that you've told in your streams. Somehow, you really give the feeling of a cool grandpa or an uncle that I could trust. Hearing you talk about tea was fun too! In fact, I've actually started drinking tea because of you. You really did influence me in a lot of ways... Thank you for the memories, Vesper! I'm wishing you luck, success, and happiness.
