your blog vibes are that of a small maritime museum where many, though not all, of the objects on display are in some way haunted
just got a new and particularly adventure-y-looking wall map of a small archipelago recently - it's getting more maritime in here by the day!

if anyone wants to know my fashion sense I dress like a disgruntled hiker who was halfway through a hike before being teleported back to civilisation. maybe with a sprinkle of transmasc swag and a hint of horror protagonist
