For Cayce.

TrevPlaysPoorly··140 votes·5,669 views

Hey Rioters and all others. It's with a heavy heart I write this post, but I'd like to reach out.

My girlfriend passed last night, and although she wasn't a huge fanatic about league, she loved Annie, and she loved poros.

I was wondering if anyone would be willing to either chat or to play Annie in memory of my beloved Cayce.

Please do not leave insensitive or mean comments in this thread.

She passed last night and you're here asking to play a game of LoL. I'm sorry but isn't it a bit too soon?

If it were me I'd still be crying non stop in my pillow.. for the rest of the month.

Something's fishy.

For the rest of you out there, ask yourselves. If you lost someone close, would you go play video games the very next day? How could video games even possibly be on your mind??

I know I personally play video games (not league, but like pokemon) to take my mind off stuff. It may just be a distraction for him.

Other dude, I hope you feel better. I know what it's like to have a friend pass. I'll play some Annie in her honor :3

A few hours after my dad died, I hopped onto league and played a game. I was feeling completely fucking numb and needed to do something, fucking ANYTHING but think about what happened. People cope with grief in different ways, so why don't you shut the fuck up when you don't have any idea what you are talking about.

Due to certain circumstances, I'm unable to be with her family, and I'm having a hell of a time dealing with it.

Think what you may, but it's a temporary escape from what's going on. Video games aren't on my mind. Getting away from what's going on is.

I'm asking you guys to do something for her, you're not required to, think what you may.

Everyone deals with stuff in their own way, there's no right or wrong. So just keep doing whatever you have to to get through it.

I've actually been in an extremely similar scenario with a lost relative and back then I played LoL to escape too. I can't say I know how you feel, but I know what it's like :(

This. My dad died about a year ago and i was incredibly close to him. I invited friends over to play video games with all night so i wouldn't be isolated with nothing else to think about, then played games the next morning until family started to arrive.

OP: add me if you want, maybe we can get a game of One for All going with Annie if that sounds good.

I spent an entire fucking summer playing league, my mother had passed away, i'm sorry dealing with a toxic asshole was much more pleasant than the depressing pisshole that my mind was during that time, my MOTHER not my girlfriend, she died in a car accident, i'm sorry DON'T SHIT TALK other people's grief even if you have already experienced it.

I will honor Cayce by playing Annie, you have my word.

P.S. I will also change my profile pic to tibbers's claw, in memory of Cayce.

Edit: After looking at some of the comments about why OP played LoL afterwards, I will give my contribution, in assistance of OP. When my Grandad died, I was completely distraught. He was the only voice of reason in my family that mattered, and for that, I missed him to a great extent. After I had mourned him for as long as I could remember, the very next day of his death, I had played LoL to get my mind off of things. Even players that I was chatting with in the matches I played were supporting me, including the enemy team. So, for anyone out there who doesn't know what to do when they have lost someone close to them, try and take your mind off of it, remember your beloved at a happier time.

What did she love most about Annie? what color hair is your girlfriends, and what was she like? Maybe we can make a memory by making a skin as a Community. I am sorry about your loss.

And we can make Tibbers be a Poro! :D

Seriously though, I'm really sorry to hear about this. You and her family will be in my prayers.

She really loved her character as a whole. Honestly, I think it was because she was a small child. However, she enjoyed playing her because she was simple to do play. She loved that Tibbers and Annie always shared themes. I don't really know why she loved Annie so much, in all honesty. I believe it was because she was a rather innocent character in a violent game.

Her hair was dyed pink before she passed, although she had dyed it many other colors, a few being reds, blues and yellows.

Cayce was very kind and caring of everyone she met. If there was a problem, she would make sure the person got help finding the solution. She genuinely cared about anything you had to say. She loved being a helpful person with every fiber of her being. She was fun and spontaneous, with just a tinge of seriousness, and it made her unique and perfect.

I'm sorry, man. I don't know you and you don't know me, but I wish you the best. I can't pretend to understand what you're going through and I won't try. I know words aren't much, but I hope you can find some comfort in them. Best wishes to you and your family in this time of mourning.

Anyone else find it shameful that no one from Riot has commented at all in this thread ?

Hopefully it is just because no one has noticed it yet. Someone that works for Riot post here and play a Annie game for the op. Pretty simple request, that could be easily honored.

I don't necessarily think it's shameful. Threads sometimes go unnoticed. And her name is also the name of a ship within the game, apparently, and from what I've seen, Riot employees tend to steer away from ship threads.

People have lives outside my own, and I don't expect much from others, besides them being understanding.

That isn't freedom of speech, that's just downright rude. If you had said that comment in a face-to-face situation, you would have been knocked out and bleeding by almost anyone who isn't as hateful as yourself on this board.

Cayce died due to a respiratory infection, along with an asthma attack. She passed out then died shortly after.

Just because reasons are not explained doesn't mean it didn't happen.

It's a bit crazy that it's coming up on a year now.

I'm still really grateful for the support that I received from the people who did give their support to me.

@everyone, thank you, so so much.

Let's play some Annie games come October 16th!

For Cayce! Annie

TrevPlaysPoorly1 votes

I feel like I should actually add a bit of an update post, because I now fully know what happened, and I neglected this thread because, to be frank I forgot it existed.

Cayce passed away due to a pulmonary embolism. (Link is to her obituary before people call me a liar again.) She passed at around 6:30~ pm October 16, 2015, during a conversation we were having on telegram.

I've made a lot of progress coming back from all of this, and so has her family. It's been one hell of a rollercoaster and there hasn't been a day that I haven't missed her.

Hey guys, It's been a year ago as of tomorrow that she passed, and I would appreciate the sentiment of a lot of people playing Annie in memoriam tomorrow, as I'm going to be doing the same.

Have a good one, friends!
