    Rest In Peace

    Hello. This is Flea Candy. I figured out Posey's password to this account through emails that she sent me.

    I am the bearer of bad news. Earlier today, Posey died from complications stemming from a suicide attempt late last night.

    I don't know the details, as her parents have not released them to me, but I know that she was active on this site and had many friends here.

    New Group

    Well, you all I knew this was going to happen. One of my good friends from off-site, Flea Candy (Call her Flea Candy the Fabulous. She loves that.), has made a new group - The Reader's Group.

    Hiatus

    As you may know if you've been following me for some time, this is my second time posting Mare of the Mountains. This may not come as a surprise, but I am still not happy with it. I recently solicited a review that really opened my eyes. You can check it out

This is a joke.

You figured out her password through emails? Seriously, is this the Davinci code?

And she died of complications from a suicide? Wouldn't that just be suicide?

This to me seems like a ploy. :unsuresweetie:

What? No, why would she...?

1323955

I mistyped. She actually gave me the password in an email. The reason why I said "complications from a suicide attempt" is that... well... it's hard to believe that she would do this to herself and those are the exact words that her parents told me.

Did you know her personally?

Well, this is pretty grim news. It's always sad to hear of death, especially with someone so young.

1323976

She was very troubled. She was also schizophrenic and had recently gone off of her medication. It was a wonder that she only hurt herself and not others. That would be how she would have wanted it, if her condition "caught up" with her.

I'm quite sorry to hear that.

I'm so sorry to hear this grim news. She truly poured her heart into her work and it's always sad when this happens to someone so young and full of life. My condolences to her family and friends.

1324018 This is indeed sad news. I didn't know her well or for long, but I enjoyed our occasional talks. I had no idea she was troubled like that, and I wish I could have helped somehow. I'm not really sure what else I can say, except that I will miss her.

But it's nothing like what you're going through I'm sure. She mentioned you were a great friend of her's. My condolences to you.

1324018 I could have sworn she had more stories up. Were those taken down?

I don't know Posey at all, but my condolences to her friends and family all the same. :fluttercry:

1324036

They were taken down before I had access to her account. She must have done it of her own accord.

Sayer #12 · Sep 2nd, 2013 · · 11 ·

I'm sorry to hear that. I really liked her stories. I hope that she's now happily living in Equestria.

1324039 All, except "Dear Dashie", huh? Maybe she left it as a final message of her own...

You two were friends. I'm sorry for your loss.

But... no...:fluttershysad:

Oh... oh my.
I barely knew her, but she and I participated in an OC game, and I later read her story "Mare of the Mountains." She was a great person from what I knew. May God help her friends and family through this tough time.

1324060 All her stories came down except for the one about a farewell letter from a hospital. I'd say we should give the benefit of the doubt unless we hear otherwise.

Rest, friend, for you are far from the hardship and troubles that plague this world now. Rest, and be at peace. Farewell.

1324044 are you fucking serious

1324061

Her name was Haleigh.

1324118 that pisses me off on some many levels

Just shut your fat lips.

Shit, I knew Posey from the TVTropes thread. She was alright.

Damn.

1324127

"They're just sleeping for a very long time, 30 year old autistic man. They're sleeping in Equestria."

God blesses her. This is really sad. Hopefully she is in a better place. I am truly sorry. :pinkiesad2:

Alas, another person has died far too young.

1324135>>1323955>>1324130>>1324115
Can we not have fighting on a memorial blog? Say your piece and be nice. Even if you didn't know or care, have some respect.

I read Dear Dashie. No, I didn't know Posey, nor was I her friend, but have more class than starting a brawl at what is essentially her fimfic funeral. If you have to lambast somebody, then do it in PM.

1324145
He said something retarded and asinine about the death of a human being.

So fuck off.

I did not know her but I'll keep her and her family in my prayers.

1324187
And yet you jack the blogpost to get pissy because they expressed their condolences using ponies as the medium. :ajbemused:

1324241
Posting a comment =/= hijacking

1324258
Still, kind of a dick move to do

1324155
I don't want to be a jerk, but she did take them down for a reason (one of which she had wanted to do revisions on). I'm of a mind that her wishes should be respected. Just my two cents, anyway.

I only knew her through TVTropes, but I had the fortune to help edit for her and with her for others and she was always a delight to chat with. In fact, she was very Pinkie-ish in her demeanour, which serves to emphasize how sudden of a turn-around this was.

My condolences to her family and friends. R.I.P.. Haleigh.

So is stating that a dead person hopefully lives in a girly horse cartoon.

We...we have been talking a lot. She wanted to specialize in Chinese Language and Culture because of her grandmother. I honestly hope this is some sick joke, because that young lady was so intelligent and elegant. It was easy to see her grow up to be productive individual; a sad loss indeed.

I wish I could accept word-of-mouth things like this, but this is the second blog about someone committing suicide. On the last one, there was nothing to point towards it being true, and there isn't on this either.

But I will not say it isn't true; I just don't operate by word-of-mouth.

Did a bit of pre-reading for her once, and chatted with her a bit there. She seemed pretty nice. Very bubbly and fun. A real pleasure to work with. I'd rather hoped to work with her more in the future.

'Tis very sad, if it's true. There's just so many people of value that end up falling into despair.

But this being the internet, I find I can't really take it at face value. It's hardly the first suicide proclamation I've run into. For a lot of younger people it's a way to get attention when retiring a particular persona in a community, and to see how people feel, without the danger of some actual suicide attempt.

1324515 I confess I'm on the same feeling. The trouble of knowing so little of people i that these things can occur and we have no way of knowing for certain either way. I am sorry to hear it if it's true as I can't imagine you doing this out of spite. She will be missed.

I wish I could shrug this off as a sick joke. RIP Posey. I'll miss you.

I didn't know her, but I read her story, and it was beautiful. I'm sorry this happened.

May she rest in peace.

I never even knew the girl, I just ran across her profile right now, but to see this blog post... holy shit. I'm sorry. Poor her. I just ... I gotta go cry now.

I didn't know her. I read her story once. I'm going to miss her anyways. Rest in peach Posey.

1497phoenix674 I had not either, I hope she rests in peace in the After life. Flying, like a magnificent, elegant phoenix through, with no worries in the world

Rest in Peace, Posey, we will miss you dearly.

Please bear with me,

I may not know her, I may never even see this page again, but I do know this, that she was a lovely human being, and did not deserve the horrible circumstances that led to this, from hearing about her in the comments I know that no matter what religion she may believe in, that she is residing in whichever version of heaven she believes in, and that she is smiling down on everyone from the clouds that support heaven, it's times like these that I reflect on how lucky I am to have the type of support I have now (and I am not implying that she didn't have great support of her own) and that I should always be there for anyone and everyone who needs it.
with all my heart,

R.I.P. Posey/Haleigh

*A cloaked man walks through the mourning cloud and stands before the tomb of a great fallen writer. He looks down at the tomb, the crowd was silent, then to the crowd that was then silenced. He turned back down at the tomb and spoke.*

Hello all, I am Fantasia Archsage, a person, a fellow fan of the fandom. I'm an aspiring author and animator that wants to be the best there is. But... when I came across this blog and found out that one of us has fallen... A fellow kind person... A fellow... Fantasia Meister... had died. I couldn't go by and say nothing.

I'm here to say I am deeply sorry for your lost Flea Candy. I'm sorry you are not here with us Posey. But...Posey...Haliegh... Even though I did not know you. I want you to know that you will be forgotten...

*picks up her pencil, looks at the ground for a moment, then up at the skies*

God... My Father... Our Father... From Heaven... Almighty God!

Hear me dear lord. You have given me and all of us writers skill in our works. But in my path to becoming a Fantasia Meister... Give me lord, all of her talons of writing skill, and combine her powers with my crystal pen so that I will not only write of my own skills but of hers as well lord. Let her skills and talents resonate with mines and transform me into yet a better and more skilled writer. So that when every time my pen writes or when I type I would only produce wonders.

Posey, Haliegh... I want you to know that your talents will not be left in the ground, but will be used by a fellow and aspiring writer and animator. Your talents will forever be manifested in me and I will use it to grow to great heights.

*The cloaked man took out his crystal pen and held it up to the skies, the crowd stood agaped as the pen brightened. His whole body was full of light and for a moment two figures stood and looked at each other while holding hands until the light faded. He then looked at the crowd.*

May her soul rest in peace. Lord keep her soul and may she be granted eternal life in your kingdom, forever...

*The cloaked man and the crowd bow their heads in a moment of silence. He then lifted his head spoke yet again.*

As for me, I will make her talent apart of mine own, and I will forge it to make a better pen that will write beautiful worlds for all to enjoy forever. The beauty will come from the friendship she had with Flea Candy. Even though I didn't meet her alive she still will live inside us all, and I will make sure her talents grow as a fellow writer, as a Fantasia Meister...

*With that the cloaked man walked towards Flea Candy and hugged her*

"I'm sorry for your loss... our loss... But despite her not being alive physically with us, she still lives inside us, as being a friend, a writer, and a Fantasia Meister, being given the talents by god to create master pieces. She has given us two things the will to keep writing and to reach the heights that she couldn't. Let us achieve what she couldn't as friends the things she could not and be the best.

*With that the cloaked man released Flea Candy changed into a cloaked stallion who made his way off into the sunset, never to be seen for awhile...*

"Rest In Peace Posey/Haleigh..."

With this land we tread on being a birthplace of truth and deception, I could not muster the feeling of sadness within me. But as much as that might tarnish my humanity I will say this.

To whomever you were, Posey, I hope that you continue to live on, be it in spirit or in life, and if the truth was spoken on this very ground then I wish that your family and friends find themselves relieved that the one whom they have loved so very dearly is in a better place.
