General Discussion

@liyue i'd like to hear about the fountain pens if you're ok with that... i didn't know there could be much to talk about

personally my interests are super mario, pokemon, furbys (its in the instruction manual but i don't think anyone else uses that plural...), paleontology, aquatic life, plants, and dragons (even my lamps in my room are dragons!)

please for the love of Andre someone please talk to me about Stickfigur anims

specifically Hyun's Dojo and RockhardGladiators

if anyone else has a duelist im down to fight

Collecting books. I used to love reading when I was younger and I'm trying to get back into it though I've only been able to get into fanfics lately. Either way, no matter if I read them or not I've had a thing for buying any books that catch my interest and putting it on my bookshelf. Hopefully one day I'd be able to read them all.

Currently obsessed with drawing and animating! It’s been a hobby of mine for about 5 years now!

I’ve made countless characters with their own storylines and personalities, and I love all of them!

I know my hobby isn’t very interesting, but I still love it!

im really into plants right now, especially bonsai! got 10 chestnuts growing right now, two are close to sprouting. i really want to try growing peas and beefsteak tomatoes at some point. and really just any purple plants i can find lol. went around last spring hunting down whatever wild flowers i could find, and i got some blueish/purple morning glories which im really happy about! now i just need to find some bluebells, it would be a dream to find them out in the wild but i dont know if any grow around here

I think I have more special interests and hobbies than I can possibly remember or count, buuut… the Lean on Me OC universe is probably the main one now and forever. I have what my friend called the worlds longest hyperfixation on my own OCs - 5+ years and counting of literally daily obsession over my darling girl Kayleigh, who is the lead singer of a mid 2000s emo girl band called Poison Pop that got mega-famous, and her partner Blue, who is also a musician and her childhood best friend who she reconnects and then falls madly in love with. Currently, I’m working on a roleplay with said friend where she gets accidentally plopped into the plot of Dragon Age: Inquisition… except, I have never played Dragon Age: Inquisition, so I’m reacting to the plot in real time as they essentially DM it for me! (SO PLEASE NO DRAGON AGE SPOILERS) We’re actually cleaning it up and editing it to post on AO3, where we currently have about 20k words up (we have 100k+ written). It’s completely fandom blind friendly since I literally went in fandom blind as we were writing it.

[/url]My friend especially works very hard on adapting the game so it’s well appreciated. Anyway, I think about the girl and her partner more than I think about anything else to the point I’ve done fandragon scries of them, which I do plan on trying to make real at some point (first is Kay, second is Blue): [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/dressing-room/scry?sdid=2771464&skin=0&apparel=23019,28800,27352,19447,26563,12937,12930,4654&xt=dressing.png[/img] [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/dressing-room/scry?sdid=2771425&skin=0&apparel=42929,42938,42694,29223,4320,21305,21273,6267&xt=dressing.png[/img] Poison Pop has an entire canonical discography, I’ve made the discographies of other fictional artists just for this verse, every one of her band mates has their own storyline. I am just a tad obsessed.

space. i check up on space news every day. i have [url=https://webb.nasa.gov/]the james webb telescope website[/url] always open in a tab. i get excited and update my sister whenever they find something new... i even have a fandragon for my favourite planet, which is known as J1407b or 'Super Saturn'.

I am unfortunately not the kind of autistic that can memorise every detail of every interest (my brain is empty and smooth like a pebble) so i don't have much to say other than my special interest is critical role, specifically campaign 2. It is very good and I am excited for the animated show to come out one day.

I don't know much but I really love Lou Wilson :)
