Hi!! Could I have a matchup please? I'm 18, pronouns she/her, I'm fine w any gender though I have a preference for males

If its of any relevance, physically I'm about 5'8 tall and on the chubby side, green eyes, brown hair (with blonde streaks) and I wear glasses

If you're into astrology/ mbti, I am a Sagittarius w both moon and rising in Cancer and I'm INFP

So I'm quite emotional lol. Usually very in touch with my emotions and quite perceptive of other's feelings as well. I have a huge saviours complex especially when it comes to feelings (i love helping others figure out their feelings, being a shoulder to cry on or even offering comforting hugs) but I try my best to keep it control cause I don't wanna be suffocating

On the outside I'd say I'm fairly organized, I keep my room clean and all of that, I'm a lil bit of a perfectionist but mentally I'm all over the place. I tend to get carried away by thoughts and emotions and end up procrastinating a lot; anxiety makes it all worse. In short, I suck at time management

To most people I may seem quiet and reserved but I actually really enjoy talking to people; I'm really insecure about not being funny or interesting enough tho. Around my friends I'm more relaxed but still have moments of self doubt

I can also be quite obsessive. If something really catches my interest I won't stop until I search all there is to know about it. For example I watched bnha, read the manga, the spin offs etc all in less than a month and now I'm indulging in fanart and fanfics because I need m o r e c o n t e n t hsbsb. I'm also that kind of person that listens to a new song they like on repeat until they hate it. Speaking of music, I can't say I have a taste lol. My fave genres are rock, pop and indie but I hear smth I like, I listen to it, whether its "high quality" music, basic or weird. Lately I've been listening to a lot of epicore which is literally the type of music thats used in fantasy and sci fi movies askfkdk

I like expressing myself through writing, singing and dancing but I really can't say I'm talented at either of those, it's all in good fun. I also enjoy reading (fiction, non-fic books bore me like hell; my fave genres are fantasy, sci fi and crime) but I haaate literature in school. I'm actually a bit of a math nerd and this year I'm starting uni, studying computer science!! Oh! I've also taken drama classes for 2 years (despite the fear I loved being on stage and plan on starting again once I'm done w the baccalaureate), I love playing D&D and while I woulnd't quite call myself a gamer, I love role playing video games. I'm also almost always down for any kind of multiplayer video games w friends although I have no experience

I'm not a sportive person, I go on walks or do a few exercises every now and then at home but I'm willing to try stuff out like a new sport or going to the gym w an s/o. I do plan on starting self defense classes soon and maybe taking up sword fighting (I love swords hehe)

Tbh I've never been in a relationship so I'm not really sure how I would act w an s/o, nor what I'm exactly looking for. I best express my affection through physical touch tho and that includes my friends so I'd like someone who isn't bothered or can get used to that (s/o would still receive the most hugs/ cuddles etc). I'm not that comfortable w the other love languages for friends and family, but I think I'd be a lot more eager to express my love through them for s/o. If I'm on the receiving end, my weakness is still physical touch :)) but I also need words of affirmation every now and then cause insecurities 🌠 and while I wouldn't ask for anything, especially objects, I am a hoarder and I'd keep any kind of gift like its a national treasure simply bc its from someone I love.

In addition, it doesn't really matter if s/o is more on the emotional or rational side a long as they dont invalidate my feelings; it angers me a lot and makes me feel even more insecure. I tend to isolate when I'm really really upset about something so I need a lil bit of pushing to talk abt it; I'm open to talk abt my feelings but I need the verbal confirmation that they care and wanna help, its not just cause they're being nice

Wow that is a lot of rambling jeez ajsjsjs sorry. Thank you so much if you've read throught that all and ty for the match up!!

Me and my wife literally having a ten minute debate on who we’d pair you with before I made my choice. Thanks for all the details and I hope you enjoy the match up!

I match you with Sero

I feel he’s outgoing and extroverted enough to help you with your anxiety and always reassure you that you are good at things and he does love you, he’s also so chill and laid back that even if you were clingy he’d not mind, he’d embrace it, his chill nature would help balance you. He would help you feel grounded and have a ‘you don’t have to do it all now’ attitude but would happily help you out. You need help going to the store? He remembers the list you wrote, having trouble fitting in lunch while you study? He’ll come to your door with pizza.

He’s determined and outgoing but isn’t aggressively positive and loud either which I think is why I picked him over Kirishima for you.

“Hey babe, whatcha reading?” Sero asked sitting next to you on the sofa, he handed you a soda which you gratefully took, not looking up from your laptop screen.

As soon as he was sat down comfortably your hand grabbed his, clasping your fingers together as you managed to tear your gaze away from the Wikipedia page which was still open. You blinked up at him and shook your head.

“Oh just something I learned about today and wanted to do some.. extra reading” you explained.

He nodded his head and drank his soda watching as your face lit up as you started to ramble about the topic, he didn’t really know much about it but the way you told him about everything, the way you happily expressed your interest towards the topic made him happy. He gave you his big grin when you finished.

“Sorry, I rambled..” You felt bad, you always felt nervous when you info dumped on people.

“Nah, it’s cool, I didn’t mind at all” he brought your hand up to his face and gave it a kiss, your face flushed at the gentle gesture which caused Sero to laugh playfully.

“Well, if your sure… I just wanted something to take my mind off chores”.

“It’s the weekend, you don’t have to rush anyway.. and if you don’t feel better by tomorrow I can help, you can wash the dishes and I’ll dry?” he suggested still peppering kisses on the back of your hand before you set your laptop down and crawled closer to him.

You nodded softly, that sounded a lot more manageable, you felt your anxiety settle down from a raging nagging feeling to something easier to tolerate. He was such a good influence on you. Sero set down his drink and wrapped his arm around you, pulling you closer to his chest.

“The guys want to come over and say hi later, maybe get pizza… but I can tell them not tonight if you aren’t feeling it… maybe you can play that new game you got? I liked watching you play the other night” He suggested as he nuzzled your head, enjoying how your hair felt on his face.

“Maybe… can I give you an answer later?”

“Yeah, no rush babe”

You smiled softly feeling the lanky boy kiss the side of your head and listened as you carried on talking about the trivia of your current interest.

FicWritersWeek Day1 - Words of Validation are powerful, yo

did you know fic writers week was a thing? bc i didn’t (thats what I get for not being on tumblr for like, almost a year? whoops). I was just lucky enough to stumble across a fanfic chapter that linked to a post that made me realize it was a thing that existed.

so hey, thats cool. I looked it up, and wow its super cool. So now (since i was looking for an excuse to not do my homework anyway) i thought it would be neat to write a thing about these Words of Validation.

Wow guys. They mean. So. Much.

I have a catalog of reviews I’ve gotten on fics, and the variations of themes that have made me so happy I could cry. When I first started writing fic, I was very young, like, 12 (and yes, it was really bad fic). I got some lovely feedback from readers, and although my writing wasn’t perfect, that feedback motivated me to write more, and more, and more.

I walked away from fanfic for awhile after the fandom I was in succumbed to flame wars, and then the franchise died and the fandom died with it. I kept writing, off and on. Then came college, and I stopped writing altogether. It was a dark time, my anxiety was off the charts, and I didn’t do much writing of any kind. I came through it, and started writing again after falling in love with a lot of brilliant authors. I wrote fic for long-dead fandoms (Exo-Force, anyone?), for dying fandoms (Homestuck....?), and for active fandoms that I quickly lost interest in.

The one constant was that a comment - any comment - would brighten my day. And then, I started writing Spideypool. It was one of the first ships that I could really wrap my head around and get behind, and so I started writing this story based on a silly prompt, and people really enjoyed it. I kept writing. I got some of the nicest comments on that fic I’ve ever seen, and it has so many chapters and I’m way too lazy to go back and find those comments, but when I’m having tough days or think “I’m a bad writer”, I hella go back and read through those affirmations, reminding me of why I do what I do. Because yes, I write because I love to write. But I post it publicly because I love to see people respond and react to what I’ve written.

It’s helped me to be a better reader, too. I’ve started leaving comments on fics far more often - even when I’m too tired or wrapped up in the emotion of the fic to be coherent - and I’ve never had a writer tell me that they didn’t appreciate the comment or to not comment again. Some writers respond to every comment they receive. Some writers never reply to their comments. But I guarantee you they read those comments, and it feeds that ego that we all have, and it is super great.

I’ve recently started writing in a new fandom, and in my experience, it generally takes awhile to get some solid footing in a fandom, to really get to that point where people will start commenting on your fic and having conversations in the comments section (which is THE BEST). But not this fandom, I guess, because I’m one chapter in and already I’ve had some conversations with lovely commenters who are just full of passion and enthusiasm for a thing that I write! That is such a powerful and inspiring thing to me, and to other writers. Never, ever doubt the power of affirmation. It could be something as small as a heart emoji, or as big as a five-paragraph essay on why what I wrote was a perfect characterization of an oft-misunderstood character. It’s amazing, and it’s powerful.

Thank you, to all my readers. You know who you are. I could drop names, but I’d forget someone and then feel awful forever and so I’m just going to do the *wink wink, nudge nudge* thing here. You’re all amazing. Don’t ever stop.
