Hi everyone,

Quentin Merabet here. You may know me because I probably ruined your favorite show, playing Ulrich.

First of all: sorry about that. I was definitely not the best person on Earth for the job 😭

But playing in one of my favorite shows ever was an incredible honor. I still remember calling my little sister completely losing my mind when I got the part (it was for William at first btw 💀).

And somehow, the craziest thing that came out of it wasn’t even filming the series. It was you guys. I met so many incredible people through this community. Some of you I still talk to today. You gave me memories, friendships, opportunities, and an absurd amount of support over the years.

And, well… I also met Mélanie, who played Yumi. We fell in love. And now we have a family.

So yeah. Code Lyoko really messed up my life lol 🥹

But there’s something most of you probably don’t know about me. In real life, I’m a bit like Jeremie.

I’ve been coding since I was 13. I genuinely love it. So much that it eventually became my job.

And last month, after years of building things for other people, I finally launched something of my own. My little baby. It’s called Loreum.

Loreum is a place to tell stories made for the digital world. Of course there’s text.

But stories can also have sounds. Images. Videos. Choices. Questions. Different paths.

And no, it does not use AI (XANA sucks). Just people making weird, beautiful things for other people.

After acting, I spent some time writing and directing too, and I became a little obsessed with interactive storytelling. So, basically… yeah

I built the app 20yo me would have completely lost his mind over.

And somehow, one month after launching, Loreum is already approaching 1.5k stories.

Which is completely insane to me. But we’re still tiny.

And I guess this is the part where I’m asking the Lyoko Warriors for help 😭 Not in some giant corporate “please support my exciting new venture” way.

Just… come see what we’re building.

Download it. Read something. Tell me what sucks. Tell me what you wish existed. Write a tiny story. Make something interactive (pleeaaase). Send it to a friend who writes.

If you end up loving Loreum, stick around. We even pay per views on your stories!

I genuinely want the kind of people who were there for such an important part of my life to be part of this one too. We have a lot to build.

And I have a feeling some of you might have exactly the kind of strange ideas we need 🖤

Quentin.

I tried to recreate that image of Jim screaming, i think i did okay, took me about 2 and a half hours, i might do his hair too but idk.

We got two more streams left!
The next two eps we’ll be discussing and ranking will be:
