Hello lovelies! I’m Liz and strong independent women (and the men who love them) is my fandom calling card. I’m a multi fandom enjoyer, but am very much back in the comforting embrace of period dramas at the moment.
I am a gif maker and sometimes writer and am so glad you have stumbled into my little corner of the internet.
This is a secondary blog so likes and follows will come from @windylizmt. Would love to make this my main but, alas, that can’t happen yet.
Current Fandoms: Vikings: Valhalla, SAS: Rogue Heroes, The Gilded Age, Midnight at the Pera Palace, The Artful Dodger, and My Lady Jane.
Writing: My AO3 link, but you will have to be logged in to read. I also try to tag them on tumblr under the #mine: writing tag but I can’t say I’m very good at remembering to tag them like that.
Current Projects: Nothing to speak of at the moment as I haven’t written much over the last year or so, but I have a couple OCs that I don’t advertise much that I do enjoy talking about if anyone is ever interested.
OTPs and their tag:
Emma of Normandy & King Canute #otp: mutual respect
Jane Grey and Guildford Dudley #otp: it’s almost dawn
Geralt & Yennefer #otp: important to someone
Nina Zenik & Matthias Helvar #otp: youre better than waffles
Other Common Tags I use: #liz nonsense (for my ramblings), #justliz (my tracking tag), #mine: gif, #mine: edit, #mine: writing. I also tag by show name if you want to search that way.
Requests: I will for sure entertain suggestions for gifs if there is a particular scene you would like to see.
More about me, if you’re curious: I’m a weird horse girl, I love period clothing but am only just beginning to truly learn about it, my book tastes are varied, but rarely do I venture into the non-fiction genre. I have a thing for the 19th and early 20th century but please don’t look to me for a history lesson, I’m a staunch supporter of a good glass of wine any day of the week, I don’t enjoy cut flowers but love house plants, I have a soft spot for happy endings, and I fit the bill as a nostalgic millennial.
Mr Hayward, I am heartened to see you out in public so soon after your... disappointment with Miss Baxter. The whole situation was so publicly played out. I would have hidden myself away for a year, at least, with the humiliation of it all.
in all seriousness though a fandom doesn't die when there's no new episodes or games or "content" to play with and it doesn't die because people aren't as loud as the day it first came out either. if you're still creating then the fandom is alive. if your mutual who has since moved on still reblogs a post about it every four months then the fandom is alive. if there is even one person out there still engaging in, creating for, or just enjoying that show or that game or those characters, then the fandom is alive.
"fresh content" isn't the soul of a fandom. you are.
