Scarizard went away to PAX and he has many interesting stories to share. He's been dating weapons, running away from immaculately sculpted zombie hordes, MegaManning, Devil May Crying and dealt with a truly wretched streaming experience in a big malfunctioning truck.
Skyen, meanwhile, made a big video and is now feeling daze and confused about how to re-enter normal life.
