So, I made a DW a few years ago, but fell off posting on it pretty quickly. I’ve made this new account in hopes of being more active!

Name: Eclipse

Age: 31

I mostly post about: So far, I’ve mostly been posting my writing as well as fandom meta. I post a mix of fanfic and original writing. But I anticipate also making posts about the books I read and the movies I watch. We’ll have to see how things evolve!

My hobbies and interests are: Drawing, writing, houseplants, reptile care, and dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures.

My fandoms are: I’m in the horror fandom at large. However, my two main niches are the Alien franchise and the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise (minus the shitty remake lol). I’m also in the following fandoms: Ghost the band, Beetlejuice, Phantom of the Opera, and the monster romance community.

Other fandoms I enjoy but that I’m not posting about a lot at the moment are: the Stargate franchise, Batman villains, and Once Upon a Time.

I'm looking to meet people who: Basically, I’m just looking for nice, chill people who share some of my interests!

My posting schedule tends to be: I only recently made this blog, so I don’t know what exactly my schedule will look like, but I anticipate it being fairly sporadic.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: People who are oddly aggressive and rude, conservatives/MAGA types, people who are anti-LGBT, people who are strongly pro-GenAI, and people who generally participate in fandom purity culture.

Before adding me, you should know: I am in my “cringe but free” era, and as a result, have been writing more OC/self-insert x Canon Character fic — specifically OC x horror villain stuff. If that’s not your thing, this probably isn’t the right blog for you. ^^’

Also, while I generally do not care what people ship, I am very uncomfortable with lolisho, so if you like that kind of thing, we won't mesh well.

So, I made a DW a few years ago but fell off posting on it pretty quickly. I’ve made this new account in hopes of being more active!

Name: Eclipse

Age: 31

Country: USA

Subscription/Access Policy: My blog is 18+, as I only feel comfortable interacting with other adults, and I do sometimes discuss mature topics. Right now, all my journals are public, but it’s possible I may post some more personal stuff that I might feel more comfortable friends locking. We’ll have to see!

I like to post about: So far, I’m using my journal to crosspost my fanfic and original writing, as well as sharing some of my own rambly thoughts on fandom. My writing tends to focus on monster romance, horror, supernatural stuff, villains, or some combination thereof.

I’m sure I will continue posting my writing and talking about my fandoms, but it’s possible I may also post book reviews or movie reviews.

Main Fandoms: Horror fandom generally, but specifically the Alien movies and the Nightmare on Elm Street movies. My other main fandom interests are: the band Ghost, Beetlejuice, and Phantom of the Opera, as well as the monster romance community.

Other Fandoms: The Stargate franchise, Once Upon a Time, and the Batman villains fandom. I don’t talk about these things quite as much right now, but I still enjoy them and would be happy to follow you if you enjoy these things!

About Me/Other Info: I am in my “cringe but free” era, and as a result, have been writing more OC/self-insert x Canon Character fic – specifically OC x horror villain stuff. If that’s not your thing, this probably isn’t the right blog for you. ^^’

Name: Senri

Age: 30+

I mostly post about: A smorgasboard of things! Lots of book reviews, discussion and chatter about different fandoms, links to interesting things I've read or looked at on the internet, recipes I've cooked and whether I liked them, writing memes, and I'm trying to get more into posting short life anecdotes.

My hobbies are: I write both original work and fanfic, I'm playing more videogames these days, and I'm easing my way back into doing art and being outdoorsy. I like working out, going for walks, and listening to crickets, moving water, and birdsong. I'm athletic and specifically enjoy swimming, weightlifting, yoga, and spinning. I was into dwrp for a long time and still enjoy doing private storylines with friends. I love trying new things and will do almost anything once!

My fandoms are: Attack on Titan (I do not like the ending or think it was well-written, and because you can find those types in this fandom: I do not think Eren was right), Animorphs, Naruto, TWEWY, Tanith Lee's books esp the Unicorn Triology, Gravity Falls, Eyeshield 21, Blade of the Immortal, Dungeon Meshi, D.Gray-man, Lilo & Stitch. If I liked something once, I will probably have a soft spot for it just about forever.

I'm looking to meet people who: are chill and kind and value being kind to others. Nerdy types who like writing and book talk. Thoughtful people. Shared fandoms are far from necessary; I don't fanpost that much. I enjoy getting a small window into lives different from mine and my goal is to make friendly connections with others and be kind c:

My posting schedule tends to be: sporadic. I check my reading list regularly and do try to comment.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are:
No:

Purity wankers/purity police, if this is your choice for how to engage with fandom as a hobby we aren't meant to be friends. My own journal content is quite milquetoast overall and I warn for more extreme content when my writing involves it, so you won't blindly click your way into extreme content you aren't into if you add me, and I generally try to avoid this kind of discourse in my journal other than making my stance on this clear at the outset.
Conservatives/MAGAs
I don't want racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ablism etc on my friendslist and will unfollow and block commenting on my journal over it
I'm not a fan of genAI at all

Before adding me, you should know: I will probably not grant you access for a long time if we follow each other. It's not personal, I just like to know a person well and know that we mesh before I grant access. You won't be missing a whole lot as I don't post under access filters often.

My posting schedule tends to be: Who knows!

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: I strongly believe that Love is Love, Anti Genocide, BLM, Disability Rights, and all of that stuff and I ask that you are too

Nane: Kim

Age: 45

I mostly post about: Everyday life, thoughts, feelings. My version of a walk-a-bout in this season of life. I have made a lot of changes in the last few months, and I have a re-new excitement for...things, everything. I do have my moments of gloom and doom because human, but I don't get stuck there.

My hobbies are: Reading, running, exercising, gaming, movies, music/concerts, anything that induces frisson. Who doesn't like free dopamine?

My fandoms are: Star Trek , Star Wars, X-Files. I was born in the 80's.

I'm looking to meet people who: anyone with an open heart and an open mind.

My posting schedule tends to be: I am going to try to post every day, since I do have a physical journal that I jot things down.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: don't be mean. You can be angry, sad or whatever you are feeling, but when you take it and turn it around on me, we're done. I've been a punching bag for far too long and for far too many people in my life. Not going to tolerate it.

Before adding me, you should know: I'm human, just like you. Searching for connection.

Gonna try to make a tradition of re-promoting myself yearly in January!

Name(s): Azure or Bede. I answer to both, so use whichever floats your boat!
Age group: Either elder gen Z or zillennial, depending on what website you consult. Regardless, I'm an adult!
Country: USA
Subscription/Access Policy: My journal is public, and I don't make locked posts! I'm squicked out by Harry Potter (I'm trans; I hope you can understand!) and Hazbin Hotel, and I have pedophilia/incest/rape as triggers. So, if you post about these things, or they feature heavily on your journal in some way, I'm gonna have to ask you to not add me. No hard feelings!
Other Info: I'm autistic and otherwise disabled, so please be patient with me! I'm from the South of the USA, so I use petnames very casually ("honey, darling, dear," etc). You can also (or alternatively) add my account for my fanfic and fandom meta exclusively, fairyfic.

Main Fandoms: Pokemon, Cookie Run: Kingdom, Great God Grove, In Stars and Time, Kingdom Hearts
Other Fandoms: MILGRAM, Delicious in Dungeon, Splatoon, Undertale, Deltarune, Vocaloid/vocal synths, furry. I'm at least passively interested in most Nintendo franchises. Primarily in gaming fandom!
Fannish Interests: Drawing fanart, and writing fic and meta essays. I make webshrines dedicated to my fandoms. I love analyzing and writing about the queer-coding/queerness and mental health of characters. I'm a shameless wearer of favorite-character-goggles, and I'm a huge shipper. You can see more info about my fannish interests and activities here!
OTPs and Ships: A lot. At the moment, I'm mainly focusing on Sora/Riku (Kingdom Hearts), Shadow Milk Cookie/Pure Vanilla Cookie (Cookie Run), and Thespius/Click Clack (Great God Grove)!
Non-Fannish Interests: Disability, queerness, the indie web, alterhumanity, rabbits, internet culture, and archival
