tagged by @eachainn ! sorry it took me so long to get back on tumblr and get round to this (and that my tumblr activity nowadays always comes in bursts with like 100 posts a day for 3 days and then silence for 2 months lmao orz)
What’s your age? Saitama’s, plus 1 ;)
What’s your current job? HR Generalist. With a firm and a scope that provides many learning opportunities, but can also be quite tiring on some days!
What are you talented at? Writing I suppose! And mimicking the Danny Phantom drawing style. And imitating cartoon and movie lines.
What is a big goal you’re working toward? Are you kidding me at this point if I can finish writing Chapter 3 of A Dawn of Wyverns by the end of this year I’ll be happy (hey in my defense! that’s another 18k (or 20k! or more!) words! I hope you’re looking forward to it HAH)
What’s your aesthetic? High-waist skirts (of all lengths) with shiny brown mary-janes (or any classic looking oxfords) and socks. Light blue, sky blue, navy blue, lots of blues except electric blue, off-whites, and the pastel/spring colors. If it’s just pictures / clothes on other people though - then it’s autumn landscapes, scenery and colors.
Do you collect anything? Haha ha ha ha h a I probably have, i don’t know, somewhere between 300 - 500 different SuzaLulu doujinshi titles by now (hey it’s coming close to 9 years since I started collecting them!)
What’s a topic you always talk about? Unfortunately, I think I talk more often about what I hate about Code Geass as opposed to what I like about it. But I will always enthusiastically talk about it <3
What’s a pet peeve of yours? Crowded places, especially modes of public transport that I have to ride. Also sticky price tag and import labels/stickers - I actually have had a mild phobia of those for as long as I can remember, and I have no idea how I got it.
Good advice to give. People will continue giving you shit for as long as you continue to take it. (i’m sorry i think i had something better and wittier but i forgot what is was 8( or so i tell myself) But anyway - too many people I know are too nice. We’re all fellow adults now. You’re allowed to say no - and the world won’t fall apart!
Three songs you’d recommend?
1. Upside Down - Paloma Faith (catchy, upbeat and uplifting, positive feminist undertones and an implied dismissal of capitalist values. Yep, THIS is the kind of contemporary music i like)
2. Nahji no Uta (The Nahji Song) - if you’re in the mood for some peaceful, fantasy folk song music. Seriously though, the anime that this song is from? Is one of the best I have seen. Admirable, non-sexualized strong women, no annoying moe shit tropes, heartwarming story with likable characters all around. Definitely recommended. The song in and of itself is also very beautiful of course, and I’ve been listening to it on repeat these past 2 weeks
3. This english adaptation of the OPM ending song (I’ll Find You Before the Stars Do). Well-sung, sincerely performed, and anyone familiar with the translation of the full song in Japanese should be able to tell that the lyrics here were lovingly translated/adapted to keep as much of the original meaning as possible while adding a more english poetic flair to the arrangement.
