hello, this is my very first attempt at the snowflake_challenge. i apologize if i don't do this appropriately! i'm still growing accustomed to dreamwidth's vibes and hopefully this will be a good time to make new friends (around my age).

so a proper introduction is needed then. i'm mike! yes, i named myself after mike from identity v. i also go by various other names: fleur, seraph, seraphi, or even the name of whoever is on my profile picture. warning: i ramble aimlessly and have pretty severe social anxiety, but i promise this won't be miles long!

i have a more organized intro here if you want to know a little more about my journal!



snowflake_challenge question #1: The Icebreaker Challenge: Introduce yourself. Tell us why you're doing the challenge, and what you hope to gain from it.

---

i am in my mid-20's, a gemini, use she/fae pronouns (please alternate between my pronouns!), and a sapphic nonbinary woman who is obsessed with writing, petting cats, adoring my partner, and thinking about identity v.

i want to do the snowflake_challenge as a way to hopefully reach out and make friends around my age, especially friends who share equal or similar strong passion for identity v. it's my top hyper-fixation and although i don't play the game or follow canonic lore, i love writing modern settings and i enjoy worldbuilding in order to give myself new ways to interpret my favorite canon characters in different worlds and settings.

i'm a yumejoshi (or self-shipper) and i am in a happy yumeship with my fictional others, luchino diruse and joker from identity v. i'm also taken as of 02/14/2022 by the most amazing partner in the whole world. 💗 i'm disabled mentally and physically, which is an extremely important part of my life. i don't have a job but i volunteer to take photographs when needed. my posting schedule is roughly once a week if i don't have much to yap about.

i'm also an obsessive writer, so you can find my writing right on my AO3 profile! i always take fic requests as long as it's for identity v and is one of my major ships. if you managed to reach the end of my yapping, i hope we can be friends! :D i talk a lot, but i promise i'm a good listener too, and i try to be gentle and empathetic. i can be a bit sensitive but hopefully we get along fine. ;w;
