Gather 'round, Cats and Kittens.
For I've a yarn that needs telling.

Don't worry, it has a happy ending.

Cue the flash back wavy lines!
[flashback wavy lines]

It all started many years ago, in a world just like this one. The year was 2004. August of 2004, to be precise. In this world that was much like this one, there was an online game much like this one. In fact, so much like this one that it actually WAS this one. Because only in a game like this one, that really is this game, could you have Kassandra of Myth meet Adam Young from Good Omens. And only in a world like this one, that really is this one on the off chance that you've missed that in this poor excuse for a narrative style I'm trying to create here, could the two people playing those characters find themselves hopelessly in love with each other.

Fast forward to 2005. October of 2005, to be precise. That's when Rami and Selkie, for lo' those are the players' names, married in what I believe is still the first Milli-wedding to date. (Before you even ask: Yes, Stampy was there. There are pictures that prove it.)

Three being the charm in all worlds like this one, that is this one, another Milli-first occurred just this Monday past. On the 18th day of January in the year 2010, at 7:33 pm EST, Rami and Selkie welcomed the first official Milli-baby into the world. This one, not the one just like this one, because that's starting to confuse even me.

Baby Girl Rami!Selkie was born happy and healthy, weighing in at 8.08 pounds, and 20 inches long.
(and if anyone can tell me why we measure newborns as if they were fish caught at a derby, I'd love to know.)

For the time being she'll be played using her Moms' journals, until the age of three when the rules dictate that she'll have to get one of her own.

...

That last part might not be true at all.

At any rate! Welcome to the world, Baby Rami!Selkie.
And know in your heart that your new aunts and uncles aren't anywhere near as crazy online as they are in person.
