Hello, DreamWidth

[are_youready]

Heya, I generally go by B. I thought I'd introduce myself in case anyone was interested.

I've lead a lifetime of interest in SF&F, beginning with my mom reading me her old copy of Princess of Mars when I was about five. I've also lead a befandommed life, both on the internet and off, though mostly, I must admit, on. I am currently in college, but the end is on the horizon.

I like to talk a lot about how fictional characters behave the way they do because of sexual repression.

Come talk to me. Especially if you like Star Trek, or John le Carre, come talk to me. If you want to talk to me, the comments of this post are a good place to introduce yourself.

Hewwo darling how was your day

[pegasuswrites]

Not bad at all! I'm astounded at how busy it is around here all of a sudden. How about you? c:

Nice to meet you. :)

Oh man I feel this. Looking forward to reading about your thoughts.

You'll find that secretly, the motivation of all fictional characters is "unexamined sexual desires, usually but not always for the same sex," haha. But yeah I like to, you know, psychoanalyze characters a lot and find their motivations. I'm glad that you share my interests :3

One of the reasons that I like Misty’s series about Velgarth is because complex emotional issues are part and parcel of character development, including sexuality and sex relations. The books are not pornographic, but, rather, they show young adults growing up.

mmmmm repression.... sexy

helloooo! I'm thinking I might upload some of my longer posts from tumblr here, once I sort through them. hmm

[are_youready]

Hah, I thought dreamwidth might be a good fit for you :3. Seems like your kinda place, you love a Longpost.

[jazzypizzaz]

HAH true, though I'm also full of shit kljsdfkjl -- I like how more people are likely to interact with me and my posts via Tumblr, because of its interface, and also it's better for tossing out ideas to see what catches discussion... anyway, yes if tumblr goes belly-up I do expect this to be my prime place for posting. idk!!!

[are_youready]

You should make an intro post and check out a friending meme! I'll link you to one on Discord

[ambyr]

Oh hello I think I know you from Terra Ignota stuff.

[are_youready]

You don't know me, but you might know jazzy! She blogged about TLTL and subsequent books a lot on tumblr. I haven't read them but will eventually.

Dear god, the streams are crossing. My fandom present is colliding with my fandom past. Will anyone survive?

(Hey. Welcome to Old Format fandom.)

Hey B! Eh, I’m procrastinating on finishing my already overdue (but technically posted) Yuletide story because I’m garbage. What’s shakin’ with you?

[are_youready]
