Describe yourself in five sentences or less: I hate describing myself, but the basic summary is "mid 20's university student on placement who has no idea what to do with herself"! With fandom I am much less active than I used to be but I love chatting about it and sharing the things I love. Animal lover, please ask me about raccoons and dogs. Enjoy writing, but my writing is mostly made of "cool" ideas I have and then never expand on.

Top 5 fandoms: Persona (as in, basically all of them, I guess P1 is the one title I don't have super strong feelings on), Overwatch (primarily of the "I play this a lot and like pretty pictures" variety), Tiger & Bunny, Mass Effect trilogy, Bojack Horseman (although I guess this is less of a fandom and more my feelings)
There's also a lot of stuff I've watched or played that don't think I'm interested in fandoms for a lot of them. If it's on Netflix or has been cheap enough on Steam in the last year or so, maybe I've given it a look and enjoyed it ha.

I mostly post about: video games I've been playing, animals (I'm seasonally working in wildlife rehab and LET ME SHOW YOU MY BABIES), stuff that's happening irl (mostly university and bf + why being in a different country sucks), being emotional about TV shows 
I rarely post about: UK politics because I sometimes get 8( about it, weird/fun stuff I've found browsing online, nerd conventions and the stuff I did, board games, other "me" stuff.
My last three posts were about: "hey guys I played Persona 5", visiting Europe and working in Canada, how I don't post because I journal on paper (*sweats*)
How often do you post?: honestly, infrequently. Sometimes I am inspired to want to write a lot, but otherwise I will second guess myself and notpost for a few weeks. However...
How about commenting?: I like seeing other's posts and love keeping up with what YOU'RE doing. :D If I can think of something to say and don't feel I'm being annoying, I'll probably comment. I like discussion and I like just hearing about your day.

overwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatch :D

(Tracer main; Pharah and D.va secondary; learning Orisa but she's so different to everyone else I play that it's kind of hard! Most of my fandom right now other than Tumblr pictures and attempts at cosplay is this AU I'm playing with tagged "venom" on my journal. ^_^)

ever get that feeling of deja vu?

[spectrier]

OVERWATCH! :D

I love Tracer as a character, but I absolutely cannot play her well as I can't keep up with zip zip zipping around all the time. I mostly play support (out of necessity, but I do enjoy Lucio + Zenyatta + Mercy) but basically the only characters I won't try are the snipers as I'm pretty bad at them.

I am pro AU and pro cosplay, so gonna sub to you if that's cool? :)

Re: ever get that feeling of deja vu?

[solarbird]

I love all the zipping. Love it so much. Particularly when we have a Lucio that's speeding everything up even more.

And sure! That's why we're here. :D

Persona, Tiger & Bunny, and posts about video games and animals? May I friend you, please? (P5 is one of my current obsessions right now.)

[spectrier]

Oh wow, someone else who likes T&B! What a glorious day this is! :D

I'm on my second P5 playthrough so it's getting into the obsession territory for me too, haha.

I'm all about video games and the cute critters, so I feel we'll get on well. Added you! :)

[singloom]

There isn't a lot of Tiger & Bunny love out there, so it's always great to find folks that dig those superheroes. It's ridiculous how quickly I fell in love with that show. The characters are loveable, it's got a great blend of everything, and the animation is gorgeous.

Persona 5 is just taking up all my gaming time right now (that and FFXV.) I'm loving these Phantom Thief dorks and the artistic style of the game. Already throwing myself into fanart and fanfics of it already.

You sound awesome!

I don't play overwatch but I am into the story. My friend does a lot of fan art of it so I kinda got sucked into it. I'm into other video games though!

What's your favorite animal?

Re: You sound awesome!

[spectrier]

I know how it feels to be absorbed into a series through fanworks (there's a couple of series I didn't list that I'm interested in basically from having picked up stuff from friends)! I'm glad you enjoy Overwatch through the media it creates. :)

I can't cheat and say "all animals" as an answer, right? :p I think my absolute favorites are dogs (wild and the pettable kind) and, as my gif choice might point at, raccoons (not necessarily everyone's favourite, but I love 'em). Also very fond of birds but my bird knowledge is woeful, unfortunately. Which critters do you like? :D

Re: You sound awesome!

[ikneko]

Fandom art attracted me to the canon stories. I'm not part of that community but I've seen some pretty great work pass through.

I LOVE raccoons! We call them Trash Pandas at work. They are adorable!

My favorite animals would have to be dogs, cats, foxes, and pretty much anything I can find in the animal kingdom. I enjoy sharks though. I would be scared shitless of ever being in the water with them but I love them so much!

I love raccoons! We have one who comes to our house almost every night to see what's in our recycling bin. I admit, I occasionally leave out a snack for the little guy. The hubs sometimes sets up a night vision camera so we can watch Steve. That's what we call him/her.
