WHO IS THE MAN BEHIND THE BEAUTIFULLY CHROMED FACEPLATE?

Well hello everyone! Proteus here and MAN has it been a while! I would have posted this earlier, but I had to wait till I got off work so I could look up my old passwords and such, since it's been so long since I even looked at this blog.

I appear to be having a bit of an identity crisis today, as our good friend Circus Jax has decided that I am not me. First he decided that I am not acting like myself, and then I acted too calmly when he threw down the gauntlet, though, honestly he was acting shifty toward me since I've been back, so I've been expecting this.

Next, he is positive that I am not me because I do not remember certain "key" events that he remembers because apparently he has a photographic memory and screen caps every interaction of note that he has. I wish I had a photographic memory. I've all but forgotten the first three years with the lovely La Femme. It creates a bit of an issue come anniversary time...

So anyway, This is my last resort. He needs proof that it is me by my dusting off the old Proto-Blog and making a new post. So here it is...

Now, to help seal the deal, The origin of the Proteus Avatar! Back when I turned my back on the RLSH community and became RLSV, I decided to change my look. I wanted something with a more sinister, Dr. Claw type of villainous look.... or even better... something along the lines of Cobra Commander... yeah, that's the ticket... I'd go with a modified version of good ole' CC... so I decided to make a concept image... So I went a-googling and found this:

Nice, right? Well it required some playing with, so I broke out Ye Olde Photoshop and came up with this:

Looks more foreboding, yes? Now for the finishing touch... My newly designed villainous logo!

Now add the two together and voila! My new avatar!

And that is as close to the concept for the Proto-Suit as it gets! That's the history of my Avatar, Jaxy. using artwork that isn't on my Book of Faces page OR elsewhere on my blog. I'm sorry I'm not the guy you remember, but I'm not sorry. I'm me. I've been on my own journey and my journey continues. If this doesn't satisfy you I don't know what to say, but I'm not going to continue with this. I have more important things to do than justify myself to anyone.

I am Proteus - the One and Only - STILL unconstrained by labels, memes, or people who doubt me.
