Get to Know Your Mutuals
I slacked on this one whoopsieeee. I believe @tevivinter tagged me in this a while ago, and thank you to @babydinosaur930 for tagging me today to remind me to do it!
1. Origin of your blog’s name: Well.
For all of the 14ish years I’ve had this blog, my URL has always been something related to my current fandom. I’ve always wanted a more general, personalized username that I could use across different platforms, but alas… I’m not that creative, I guess lol. Did briefly consider changing my url to like rowansredscarf or something tho bc that thing takes up way more space in my brain than it should.
2. My ‘I’ll always order this food’: Same, prev. Some form of chicken tenders/strips is always a go-to cause I eat like a five year old and I’m quite picky. I usually like them with honey mustard or ranch, but I’m picky about those too and only like them from certain places 😭
3. Overused emoji: you can pry 😂 from my cold, dead millennial hands
4. Current comfort movie, show, and book: Iron Man for the movie(s). The whole trilogy really, but 1 and 3 are my favorites. For those of you who didn’t know me prior to Dragon Age, I’m a huge Iron Man fan and have been for well over a decade. Like. Huge huge fan. Carefully curated collection. Iron Man tattoo. The whole nine yards. Endgame broke me so badly that I pretty much quit Marvel after that lol but Tony Stark is my forever and always.
Ted Lasso for the show. I’ve watched it more times than I can count and I always go back to it. That show got me through one of the toughest times in my life and I couldn’t be more grateful that it exists. (If you’ve never seen it, please do yourself the favor.)
Sadly I haven’t been an avid reader since I was a kid so idk about a book 😭
5. Song on repeat: … tbh it’s the DAI soundtrack, mostly. This will sound insane to probably everyone but I don’t really listen to music much anymore. Only when I’m on the treadmill (which isn’t as much as it should be lmao). For some reason I’ve just been finding it more and more distracting and overstimulating? Then I end up just skipping all my songs and picking something without lyrics. Not sure what that’s about, but kinda makes me sad cause I used to be a music buff.
6. Current hyperfixation: Dragon Age obviously lol
7. Oddly specific thing that brings me joy: Couch Time With Paisley, aka my cat and her routine where she’ll sit next to the couch every single night around 7pm and patiently wait for me to sit down with her blanket so she can jump up and snuggle.
8. What smell makes me happy: Freshly brewed coffee, or fresh ground coffee.
9. Something I loved as a kid and secretly still do: Stuffed animals. Idk if I’d call it a secret but it’s not really something I advertise, cause you catch a lot of flack as an adult who likes plushies. Anyway, always loved em, always will.
10. Phone wallpaper right now: This picture of Rowan
11. Early bird or night owl: I was trained to be an early bird since I was a kid, and now I have to be bc of work, but I don’t think I could stay up past 11pm even if I wanted to these days lmao. I was never a night owl tho, even when I was younger. I just have no energy when it’s dark out.
12. If you work, what is your profession and do you like it: I work in health information management, processing medical records. Very boring, monotonous paper-pusher kind of job. I don’t love it and it’s def not what I want to do with my life lol (Idk what is, honestly, went to school for journalism and thankfully realized that path was not for me before it was too late. Then life happened, and you gotta do what you gotta do, and I ended up in healthcare.) But I’ve been at this company going on 8 years now, so. It’s consistent, pays the bills, and I get to work from home so I try not to complain too much.
