Hi!

[thispatternismine]

Name: The Pattern

Age: 40s

I mostly post about: Videogames I'm playing, cdramas I'm watching, some fandom stuff, my writing (fanfic, though I'd like to work on original stuff). Occasional life stuff, but I'm a private person who prefers to keep her online & offline lives separate so it's vague if I do post something.

My hobbies are: Videogames (PS5 & I got a Switch recently), writing, watching cdramas & reading (mainly cnovels these days), I've been watching some videos about scrapbooking/journalling, & would like to try that out.

My fandoms are: SVSSS, MDZS, cdramas, Devil May Cry

I'm looking to meet people who: Share some of my interests, so I can feel less like I'm talking into the void when I post, & give me something to read on my reading page. Would prefer people somewhat close to me in age.

My posting schedule tends to be: Fairly sporadic. I post if I have something to say, which sometimes works out as weekly, maybe a couple of posts within the space of a week, or I might go a few weeks without posting anything.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: Controversial dealbreaker these days, but I am very much not comfortable with the word 'queer'. I'm bi & I resent it having been made an umbrella term & slung around casually as a cute marketing buzzword, & anyone who has any kind of objection gets shouted down. I have no objection if that's how you choose to identify, but if it's a major part of your vocabulary & is cropping up multiple times in every post, there's a decent chance we may not get along.

Hey there, fellow C-drama watcher. I have to admit, I do only watch them once in a while.
If you want, do check out c_ent for C-drama fannish stuff and theuntamed_mdzs for MDZS specifically. There are many users there who post various things. :D

Hi! Yeah, I'm a member of both comms. They're great :)

[abyss_valkyrie]

Haha!I guess our circles are small enough that we end up in the comms anyway. :D

I'm very interested in watching cdramas, I haven't watched one in quite sometime. So you being part of that fandom helps me, I could use some recommendations. I'll try not to use the word queer around you, dahling. Want to be friends?

Oooh, I'd be happy to help! BTW, I also recommend c_ent. There's weekly posts where everyone shares what they've been watching & reading (& sometimes playing or listening to), & it's a good source of recs.

I'll try not to use the word queer around you, dahling.

Don't worry too much about it. I was thinking more about people I've encountered online (mainly on Tumblr), who seem to have set themselves a personal challenge to use the word as many times per post as possible, to the point where I wonder if there's a scheme out there that pays people per usage or something. I'm not gonna get too upset if I see the word used, as I know people prefer that label for themselves, so I'm obviously going to see it around, but if I'm hit with it multiple times in quick succession, then I'm definitely gonna be taking some psychic damage haha. I figure if you're in that category, you wouldn't have replied, so you're good.

Want to be friends?

Sure!
