If you answer this (especially if your answer is "other"), I'd love to hear a longer explanation of your specific ways of engaging + your own understanding of why in the replies or tags or w/e. would also like to know if there are things about the general concept of fandom that irritate you or which you enjoy and seek out. you're also free to inbox me about it if you prefer to remain anonymous. would also love to hear if you have identified any patterns in the things you tend to join fandoms for or (if you are someone who doesn't enjoy fandom) what puts you off.

Drew another little something for @anonymoussong 's fic The Sharp Static of a Restless Mind .

You wake up tomorrow to find yourself in the world of the last video game you played. How screwed/lucky are you?

Trying to find a couple hobbit fics, please help

Ok so, I remember one fic a little better than the other, but Ill list all the details i know about them. Take some details with a grain of salt, my memory is pretty bad, and I have accidentally mixed up details before.

They were both AO3 fics for sure, and im pretty sure both were bagginshield and everybody lives aua.

In the one I remember better, Bilbo was staying in erebor, i think post botfa. He is working with the men and dwarves under thorins orders to help teach farming and get some farms and gardens going to provide food for everyone. In particular I remember him working with bards advisor. Theres some unrest among the dwarves over thinking of gardening as beneath them. And later in the story both Bilbo and Ori are kidnapped by the advisor and a bunch of other guys. Ori was only taken because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time. The advisor is actually pretty nice to them, because he has nothing against them, he just really needs the ransom money. The advisor dude is later killed by the other guys after an escape attempt by ori and bilbo. I think thorin and dwalin find the two in rough shape while trying to rescue them?

The one I remember less of is mostly just one particular scene that stuck with me, where bilbo was in erebor, and explaining to a dwarf/dwarves (probably thorin, some company members, and/or Dis) that hobbits can grow their faunts in gardens, and that they can have kids with other races. And if a hobbit has children with someone from another race, that ability to grow kids doesn't dilute. I think I recall him saying that the dwarves of another mountain actually have a lot of hobbit lineage in them due to their proximity to the shire resulting in hobbit/dwarf relationships. So the dwarves of that mountain can use gardens to keep up a decent population, and they have terraces along the side of the mountain for that purpose. Of course, given that the gardens are for growing children they are well guarded. I don't remember many other story details. The best I've got is that i'm pretty sure it was a bagginshield story, and that bilbo was probably going to have kids in that story. though whether that was via the garden method or the usual way I'm not sure.

I think both fics were multiple chapters long, and i think the first one was complete? please help me find these, I have spent a while searching all the relevant tags i could think of, along with my subscriptions and bookmarks.

i want you all to know that there is an artist (carmen papalia) who, after he started using a white cane, assembled a 12 foot long white cane and began using it in downtown vancouver. the length of the cane made it functionally useless as a device and the only purpose it served was making him an obstacle for sighted people. dare i say… 2019 goals

My first ever cosplay!

So, technically this is meant as a Halloween costume, but I figure it would work as a cosplay should I feel like going to a convention in the future. This is technically also a face reveal i suppose? I'm pretty sure this is one of the first times my actual face has gone online lol. Wish my hair was better brushed in the picture, but hindsight is 20/20. X3

Also, if anyone is curious, there is writing on the dog tags! Props to anyone who knows what fanfiction I got the writing on the top tag from!

Let me know what you think I guess?

(also, 2 more things: 1: if that photo has multiple fictional characters, all of the fictional characters in that photo will be your roommates. 2: for characters that can only live in certain conditions, those conditions will be ignored, and they’ll still be able to live.)

(sorry if you don't like this content, I just saw one of those "fictional character in photo roll" posts and thought I would make one.)

This was riveting
