Aurora Borealis

Hey, everyone! I know I haven't posted on DW in well over a year, but with the current state of Tumblr, it looks like I'll be returning here at least until fandom congregates on a new site. For those who don't know, in response to reports of CP and pornbot spam, the Tumblr staff instituted a site-wide ban on anything deemed "adult material"... except their filters suck, so in reality, a lot of SFW posts have been flagged and blocked. Moreover, they've also marked many blogs "explicit", effectively shadowbanning them (they don't show up in searches and the icon/banner are removed). Guess whose blog got shadowbanned? Yup, yours truly - despite the fact there was almost no NSFW material on it, and the stuff that was there was reblogged fanart, which I have always tagged #nsfw. I can't even access my own blog tags now to delete the "adult material". It really fucking sucks.

Anyway, if you followed me here from Tumblr, welcome! Feel free to drop a comment. I'm a longtime fangirl - a bit of a fandom nomad, actually - and devoted slash shipper as well as Femdom kinkster. I've been around since the days of IRC anime trading, lived through the rise and fall of Livejournal, so I don't intend to let this Tumblr drama deter me from participating in the fan community. You'll find a mix of personal posts and fandom gushing on here, as well as occasional treats for followers ;) like audio/video rips or artbook scans. Occasionally, I write fic that I post on Firestorm717 and create icons/headers/wallpapers. I'm always up for a good meta discussion or general squeeing over a particular character/actor.

So pull up a chair and settle in!
