Hello!

[applepirates]

1. I'm Amy, she/they are both comfy.
2. Been around the block a few times, more self imposed than anything. I am not great with crowds or in person social situations.
3. Animal Crossing, fanfic reading, rewatching favorite shows and movies, petting my cats.
4. I hope there might be some folks here with similar interests or with a desire to share interests and introduce each other to new things. I hope it might be a little break from the world.
5. I have a pretty unlimited capacity to listen to you talk about your favorite thing (even if it's not mine) and encourage you! I have many fic recs ready to share.

Welcome, Amy!

I think I will put out a call for fanfic recs tomorrow. It's been a while since the last one.
