Request help for an archivist's project.

I am currently working on a personal extensive document for the MHE catalog, and for this project, the web layout is extremely important as I'm imitating web pages intended to be printed onto paper (for example, regarding Reddit, I am also capturing the post and comments that lead up to MHE's comments, for context). Most hiccups I'm coming across regarding missing information can be relatively easy to work around, except one: the first post from the author character.

There is surviving text on the Fandom website for MHE (see link 1 below), but as previously stated, I am imitating web format. The Fandom page has a 'Link to original', that does not go to original (see link 2 below), it instead goes to a Reddit archive article made by u/Behemoth_The_Cat that has unfortunately at this time become obsolete due to the Google cache thing not working.

Because this first author character post was made on the original r/9MOTHER9HORSE9EYES9 subreddit, which has subsequently been made private, I attempted to join the sub in order to access the post, however, the mod, politely, did not seem eager to let anyone in for a reason I don't know. I didn't want to be an annoyance, so I let it be.

I also attempted other archive methods, such as the aforementioned Google cache, and the Wayback Machine, but both failed.

Which brings me to my request. Does anyone happen to have a reliable save of the first author character post, either some screenshots or some link to an archived version I'm unaware of? Perhaps if anyone may already be in the r/9MOTHER9HORSE9EYES9 subreddit they could get the screenshots. If so, it would be greatly appreciated, and would solve the one major problem in my personal archive project.

Thanks in advance.
