fandom snowflake challenge #01

challenge #1: in your own space, introduce yourself!

hi i’m deerna, a twenty-something queer gremlin who writes for a living and also for fun. i’ve tried to do the snowflake thing on pillowfort last year because i thought i was going to be more active on that platform, but then i started posting a little more often on dreamwidth so i thought of doing the challenge on here instead.

for challenge #01 i updated my intro/sticky post. i joined the witcher fandom a year ago and it doesn’t look like i’m going anywhere, so i added a paragraph about it. if you're wondering about it, the #a just death thing (like my main icon) is about dirk strider (homestuck epilogues).

if you want to know more about me you can also read my fandom recap and my writing recap from 2020, that i just posted. most of my personal posts are locked but i’m not fussy about adding people; just say hi under the sticky post so i know who you are.

Aww, I almost get nostalgic about Nine and Ten these days. And I just realised, it has been 15 years since Nine. How did that happen? I am getting old^^

Oh, I loved "The Nanny"! They did a re-readthrough of the first episode recently, it was fun (Pandemic Table Read). Fran Drescher's voice was very distinct back then^^

I found some interviews with Henry Cavill on YouTube, and you are right, he is adorable. Such a fanboy! And I love how he breaks apart the fight scene in Blaviken. I was very impressed when I first saw the scene, because it was all one shot, there was no wasted move, and you instantly knew the story they were telling just through their movements. Great storytelling! And then there is also Henry Cavill, being adorable with Simon Pegg

Gush away, I have no problem with books of a certain age. I loved Jack London and Karl May when I grew up, so no worries^^ Mind you, I wouldn't recommend them today, but sometimes you can't help what you get exposed to, especially as a child. I am glad they did their homework for the games, because getting the details right adds so much to any show, and also a game, I'd imagine.
