[[File:TweetabixHouse.png|thumb|Tweetabix's house in Kannin, completed 18 April 2020]]
Tweetabix joined CivRealms for the first time on 10 April 2020. Immediately having asked in chat for a nation to join, [[Norlund#Yoslan|'''Antea4204''']] invited him to join [[Norlund]]. He then rented an apartment in [[Norlund#Kannin|Kannin]] city centre from '''Cirex22'''. By the end of the first two days he had begun constructing a house in then-derelict West Kannin, because as a Recruit he did not yet have full access to Norlund's bastion network. Early on he worked for King '''[[Terry]]''', laying snitches around Norlund and testing defensive mechanisms. He also got to know Pope [[Norlund#Vatican City|Leobenet]], who converted him to Vatican Papalism. HeUtilising realised theits strategic location of, his new property and built it aswas a mixed use development with a shop front as well as a residential entrance.
 
On 15 April 2020, Tweet participated in the official opening of the Norlund Supreme Court, built by '''SirBoss'''.

On 18 April 2020, Tweet drowned whilst assisting SirBoss in the creation of Kannin Pier. His bed didn't work which gave him an opportunity to see some other parts of the server for the first time. He got back to Kannin in time for the official opening of the pier and to finish his house.

On 10 May Tweet travelled to '''[[Zen]]''' to participate in the first [[Zen|Altercation at the Altar]] as further minigame research. The Pope warned him not to do so. Tweet was defeated in less than 30 seconds by [[Saviors City|MSPaintDaily]], who was himself eliminated mere seconds later.
 
==== Joining Ansgar Vikings ====
On 12 May, Tweet did some terraforming in Ansgar for '''Sir Grettir.''', and later commented that all the stam the Vikings paid him to dig was recycled into the Viking XP Shop so he could repair his tools. Coincidentally and unrelated to this jibe, it was on this day Jarl '''Shamus''' invited him to become a Viking. Tweet chose the Old Norse name of Orvar Kiks, meaning Arrow Biscuits. Initially Tweet struggled with being a Viking as itan meantincreasingly abandoningpowerful thegroup Christianwithin FaithNorlund.
 
==== Computerovirus ====
On 16 May, Tweet announced he had broken his computer trying to do upgrades on it. This resulted in a 2 week period of limited activity, with his house in Kannin surrounded by a quarantine tape warning players not to enter. During this period, lestTweet stuck to the West Kannin area, focusing on beautifying the run down area just as SirBoss completed the Kannin Grand Central Station district of West Kannin. SirBoss gave him a shop in the new station area in exchange for helping theyto catchdig Computerovirusit themselvesout.

He then completed the outer shell of the "'''Norlund Rocks'''" climbing centre and began building the inside climbing wall, with a view to opening the centre in time for Kannin's upcoming Carrot Festival.
 
At this point, Tweetabix held the following properties in and around the Norlund capital:
During this period, Tweet stuck to the West Kannin area, focusing on beautifying the run down area just as SirBoss completed the Kannin Grand Central Station district of West Kannin. It was at this point Tweet started trying to sell his house for 15-20 stam valued by “an un-independent adjudicator” who remains suspiciously anonymous. SirBoss also gave him a shop in the new station area in exchange for helping to dig it out.

On 29 May, one day after completing the Onboard exchanges, Tweet announced he was clear of computerovirus. One day later, he built a Viking Helmet atop Kannin Castle to celebrate the ascension of Shamus, Jarl of Ansgar, to the throne of all of Norlund. He then completed the outer shell of the "'''Norlund Rocks'''" climbing centre and began building the inside climbing wall, with a view to opening the centre in time for Kannin's upcoming Carrot Festival.

=== The Secession of Ansgar ===
[[File:TweetabixHouseAnsgar.png|thumb|Tweetabix's house in Kannin, in the process of being rebuilt at Amerssingen, Ansgar.]]
On 2 June, Tweet realised that the amount of building materials he was hoarding were struggling to fit in the limitedfor storage space at his house, even if he moved some into the shops and climbingin centreKannin. He decided to exercise his right asbuilt a dual cantonal citizen to build anew base in the Ansgar canton, and built a huge wooden barrel near the Dutch city of Vlaardingen. This build was entirely unrelated to the coming Secession, as Tweet was not privvy to the inner workings of the Ansgar independence movement.
 
Over the next few days, politics in Norlund became much more complex and Tweet, being a citizen of Kannin as well as a Viking as well as knowing a bit about surveys, ended up as a deputation for the Ansgar rebels. During this time Tweet, as a Kannin citizen and Ansgar deputation, stepped up to the mark in order to ensure that the wording of a referendum form between Ansgar and Norlund as to the ownership of Kannin created "the best deal for Kannin citizens."
==== The Kannin Referendum Debate ====
A lengthy Discord debate began between Tweetabix and SirBoss on one side, representing Ansgar Vikings with a stake in Kannin, and Norlish government officials Groxlord and GetSkinny- neither of them Kannin residents. Tweet argued for:
 
* the inclusion of a third option which would allow Kannin citizens to vote for something other than membership of either state. Despite this option's inclusion in the original proposal, Skinny wouldn't budge on removing it and Tweet wouldn't budge on including it. This significantly lengthened and intensified the debate. Tweet argued that the word "Abstain" would imply dismissal or non-involvement and would effectively disenfranchise people who may have preferred to vote for "another option".
