Friending Meme

[florianschild]

Maybe you struck up a conversation while you waited in line for the roller coaster. Maybe you and a questionably large group of friends all tumbled out of a van and walked in together. However it happened, you're now here at the Carnival with your friends. The best experiences are all the richer for having fun and interesting people to share them with. Let's all get to know each other and make some friends to hold our hands during the scary rides or split a basket of fries with.

Feel free to post your answers in the comments or on your own journal and share a link. See you around the fairgrounds!

Dreamwidth Stuff
What do you post about? Whatever strikes my fancy, really—mostly through takes on and away from media I love and/or loathe, or what I will probably wind up making of my own inspirations in turn.
How often do you post? Ideally, once every 1–2 weeks; realistically, around once or twice a month(ish)
What communities, if any, are you involved in? Not counting mere subscriptions, of course, I’ve so far checked into worderlands and justcreate if nothing else…
What kind of accounts do you like to follow? Other folks whose contemplations I vibe with—or at least those I find interesting enough, in any case—as well as things that I think will bolster my brain or brighten my day.

Fandom Stuff
Fandoms: Pokémon, Sonic the Hedgehog, Megami Tensei, My Little Pony, the Nasuverse, Marvel, DC, and more (mostly in the realm of animanga and video games)
(A Few) Favorite Characters: Konata Izumi (Lucky Star), Dante (Devil May Cry franchise), Metal Sonic (Sonic the Hedgehog franchise), Blaze the Cat (Sonic the Hedgehog franchise), Twilight Sparkle (My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic), Godzilla
Things you're into but not fannish about: I’m pretty big into paleontology—and the broader natural world besides, for that matter. Likewise, I’d think myself the type of thinker who’d think calling themselves a ‘thinker’ is a bit presumptuous…I think. (Just look at the ‘-isms’ I have tagged as Interests as of now; you’ll get the idea.)

I Designed This Meme So I Get To Ask Weird Stuff
Explain your username: Back when I first set up my AO3 account, I liked the idea of being a ‘guildmaster’ of sorts (in the heroic fantasy RPG setting sense) as an author, whimsically sending out my characters on assignments to their various (mis)fortunes—around that time I also had a bit of a reptilian bent going on in my online handles (sparked first by a username on a now-defunct forum for a now-dead Kickstarter campaign, and then honored by my Reddit account); thus, all in all, ‘GuildScale’ wound up being the first banner for my personal portfolio.

Ambitiously enough, though, I soon started to consider cobbling a more unified presence between my writing endeavors and my online indulgences besides—and considering the latter (such as my Discord username) had come to be united by robotic motifs instead (as derivatives of a hand-me-down Roblox account whose username I didn’t bother changing, if you can believe it), a portmanteau plopped itself in my proverbial lap soon enough. (All that being said, while my mindset regarding creative works has evolved beyond the conceits behind that ‘guildmaster’ analogy, I have to admit it has a nice ring to it…and I also don’t want to go to the hassle of changing my AO3 username especially.)
Favorite season (it's ok if it's not summer): Fall mostly owing to Halloween, tbh
What's your vibe?: Depends on who you ask, I guess. Personally, “rot of fascination” is a(n honestly banger) phrase that came to me as I was writing this up—but as per my journal’s tagline, I encourage you to make of me what you will.
What is your summeriest fandom? (You can interpret this however you like….): The source material of My Little Pony (and Friendship is Magic especially) I’d say strikes the appropriate notes of warmth and whimsy—and I have similarly fond (albeit rose-tinted) memories of the hayheyday fertility of its fanbase back when I was just barely shedding tweenhood.
