My name is Lister (if you know why, no you don't) or Alex, still, sometimes. I go by any pronouns, with no particular preference! I am also your local aroace snail.
I'm a writer who, after years of the world's worst writer's block has finally managed to start writing again, and i'm still an artist who is too anxious to ever post any art - even though i've recently started actually liking my art! Wow!
if you want a tiny look into the fictional universe i'm constantly working on, you can find that here🦋
It's been 4 years since i've joined tumblr and i'd say i'm still in too many fandoms, some are the same, some 2022 me couldn't even imagine. You can typically find me lurking around in the All for the game, The Raven Cycle, The Locked Tomb, Cult of the Lamb, Percy Jackson, Hades(the game) (honestly, most things related to Greek Mythology) sides of this hellsite these days.
Interact at your own risk, i famously can talk for hours straight. ^^'
v tagging system below
I've been trying to make a better tagging system for myself, so if you're interested in that, here it is:
#lister's ramblings -> exactly what it says on the tin, my endless rants and ramblings.
#lister irl -> things related to my offline life
#behind the curtain there's a snail -> my thoughts and struggles related to my writing
#lister's freaks -> tag for any of my original characters
#the blorbo tag -> tag for my paracosm stuff, currently not as active
#something about strawberries -> vy and nix and their insane relationship which is not platonic, not romantic, but a secret third thing thatonly ever makes them miserable.
#two people sitting doing nothing -> same idiots but also the one time i decided to give them a happy ending for my own well-being.
#wjit -> my insane (w.i.p) aftg x pjo x trc, oc x canon, fanfic universe that i've been working on for almost a year. see below for each specific fic
#ghitg / #get'cha head in the game -> the aftg x pjo sequel fic that started this madness
#cmwybu / #call me when you break up -> the aftg x trc midquel that i started writing almost immedietly after ghitg
#bmiym / #bury me in your memory -> the pjo Titan army before, during and the year after the second Titan War
#hitcod / #hungover in the city of dust -> Trials of Apollo...but it's different.
#gctmt / #ground control to major tom + #cf / #control freak + #trhtoc / # the roadtrip heist of the century -> Cabin 11 trying their darn best to return to normal after the war + Mr H's one attempt at being a good father. there is no war in ba sing se and there is no revolution in Olympus. don't worry about it.
My profile and background picture were taken by me! Dividers by @/saradika-graphics here on tumblr!
WARNING do NOT start reading books and comics or watching movies or looking at art!!! you will start wanting to create art yourself. or god forbid. writing.
when i say “aros can still date” i mean that as in “aros can do whatever the fuck they want and it doesn’t have to make sense to you”
but some of y’all say “aros can still date” to mean “aros are still able to fit your standards of an acceptable person despite their abnormality” and i do not fuck with that
both very funny and awfully frustrating that people will be like “just because this character is aromantic doesn’t mean they can’t be romance-favourable / in a romantic relationship 🥺” and then the character in question is canonically like “i hate romance so much it’s unreal”
let’s talk about how they made it impossible to function without a phone and digitalised everything and then turned around and went “actually! these phone things aren’t safe for kids but it’s magically ok once you’re eighteen. guess you’ll have to have your life dictated by your parents now lol cause we’re gonna take the devices away from you. IT’S FOR YOUR OWN GOOD WHY ARE YOU COMPLAINING”
ok my apologies. take away my ability to buy anything too ig because these fuckass stores don’t accept cash anymore. take away my ability to communicate with people outside my house and school because I can’t text and I can’t email and I cant drive to them either and I can’t even fucking get public transport without a phone either. can’t order at a fucking restaurant without being asked to get a membership and install an app and also very sorry but you can only order through our online menu now! have you ever considered that it’s not just about instagram?
everyones trying to divine rpf proof from like wow they looked at each other in a joint interview or performed for a crowd together the real rpf proof is when they stop speaking to each other
