*** On Semi-Hiatus with my tumblr and my writing. I’ve become ill and need long treatment and I’m not up to writing or engaging with the fandom much. I hope I’ll be up to at least writing fic soon.!***
So I decided to put together some of my metas/ask posts (that tend to become metas occasionally) for convenience and pin this post.
