Game of the year?

Littlewood cuz I like collecting and crafting and I can play this game for hours and hours and hours

Best month for you this year?

There wasn't really one unfortunately.

Something that made you cry this year?

A lot of things, but most recently @ zoestormwriting's Enchanted Forest anthology. (Good tears), like the stories were so sweet and they resonated so hard on an emotional level.

Something you want to do again next year?

Take the California Zephyr (but likely out east this time instead of just up into the mountains

Talk about a new friend you made this year

I met a transfem person and their then partner at a friend's birthday and loved chatting with both of them, it did sound like they broke up but I've had coffee with one of them a few times and we've had lovely conversations each time.

How was your birthday this year?

Really good! My partner asked a bunch of friends to get together for lunch with me at this open air food place and it was a small thing but I loved getting to see everyone. Likely the best birthday in a long time.

Favorite book you read this year?

There were a lot, Through Verdant Mirrors was a delight, Already mentioned Enchanted Forest, I bought and read a ton of @ beedokwrites' books on itch, all of which were lovely, also the light novels for I'm in Love with the Villainess

What’s a bad habit you picked up this year?

Skipping breakfast, I used to be extremely regular about it.

Post a picture from the beginning of the year

Post a picture from the end of the year

A memorable meal this year?

I made a turkey and potato dumpling soup from November leftovers and it's my favorite soup to make.

What’re you excited about for next year?

I had to drop out of a Spanish class I was taking from the community college cuz the instructor, he was a jerk who didn't teach well, so I'm taking it next semester with an instructor who knows her shit and wasn't a jerk

What’s something you learned this year?

I started learning how to spin yarn on a drop spindle, I didn't know they were a thing until I read @ niki-smith's deep and dark blue and it's been a delightful experience.

What’s something new about your place of residence (room, home, or general location) now vs the start of the year?

We have a working fireplace now

Favorite place you visited this year?

Glenwood springs, in that it was the only place we went, took the train up, best way to go.

If you could send a message to yourself back on the first day of the year, what would it be?

Shoe sizes don't stop being gendered at 12, understand hat you've already lost two and a half sizes when you're telling other trans women "amazing for you" when they share how much they lost!

Did you keep any New Year’s Resolutions?

I didn't make any, so no

Did you create any characters (in games, art, or writing) this year? Describe one

I made a character for a Halloween zine that I didn't end up submitting to, a dragoness writing a recipe blog style story for a "dragon readers digest" print publication found footage sort of deal. Still have like half of it written and a lot of her details in my head.

May I ask, how did you come to watch Supergirl, and how did SuperCorp captivate your attention? According to your blog, today is «SuperCorp Sunday», so I concluded today would be as good a day as any to learn more about this ship 💗💛💙

Pfft sorry to not have answered it yesterday, i was binge watching Elementary and simping over female Watson (its a Sherlock Holmes kinda series except Watson is a Asian woman and i seriously love her, i bet my future wife will be level-headed like her)

So! Supergirl! First i didn't even want to watch it but it grew on me with time, first bc Kara is seriously cute and dorky and it's my favorite kind of character, although i still don't get WHY she would want to be a reporter, like, she was in the SCIENCE GUILD in Krypton why the fuck would she want to report things? Instead of curing diseases etc etc.

And then came s2 and with it LENA LUTHOR OH GLORIOUS BE BLESS RAO, boy do i love her (not just bc i have a super weak spot for green-eyed brunettes but because she's smart, baby and just so SO good, she deserves the world and doesn't deserve all the hate she gets, i seriously cry every time someone tries to kill her or when she's just sad, that's how much i love her character) i mean who wouldn't love an incredibly sexy CEO? All of us at some point want to even be stepped by one. And the way she supports Kara is just 💕💕💕

One thing i hate of this show tho is how they just want to throw Kara with almost every men that shows up and - seriously, it's annoying as fuck, it would make more sense to either get her and Lena together (which makes sense and would be a loving relationship, now with Kara revealing she's SG their trust would grow etc etc) or just leave her alone, pretty sure she'd be happy with potstickers alone ngl

Anyway, I'm probably obsessed with supercorp bc of how dorky they both can be and I just LOVE their friendship so much and i see so much potential of it being more yk? It's not like in some shows that i ship but i don't really see it happening (I'm not gonna say which ships duh), it's one that i ship and BOY it just makes SENSE (CW is a coward as we all know, unfortunately, so it probably won't happen and the writers will just throw a bunch of men on our baby Danvers). And also! Blonde-Brunnette gays! Hellooooo! The best kind of couple-dynamic ???

Bonus me when i first saw Lena on s2 (except i just drew my hair like it is today for dysphoric reasons)

#FUCK KARA I'M TOTALLY ALEX LOOK AT HER SMOOTHLY GRABBING BACK HER ALCOHOL AAA #lmao my love for supercorp is just-#i cant even MEASURE #its literally the single thing i can read #i tried reading a ship other than supercorp (or lumity and elsa #elsamaren)#and i honest to Rao COULDN'T #my brain would just skim the text and i would sigh every 2 minutes #not a good sigh mind you #a bored sigh that shook my bones #and the fanfic was like 5k words #and then after that i spent 3 or 4 days without sleeping or eating just to finish a 333k fake marriage supercorp fanfic #THAT'S how much i love this ship #if i wasn't so broke i would have bought the zine #will have to wait till next year grr #i hope sango and Rafi participate on the zine next year 🙈🙈🙈💕💕#anyway! watch supergirl! i may love more the ship than the series but I SWEAR everyone has to watch Alex Danvers #I'm literally her #my favorite scene is one on thanksgiving where Kara gets the alcohol from Alex and puts in the fridge and then literally 5 or 7 seconds #later Alex is just- calm as you please #grab the bottle back from the fridge and serIOUSLY i lost my shit cuz i did that and i was like #wolfy asks #and also bc... green eyed brunette... and Maggie Sawyer........#look- I'm weak for latina women okay? don't bully me >:( they're literally perfection
