Hello everyone!

For those of you who would like a quick summary of me, this is the section for you! ♥ [Profile last updated November 15, 2022]

💜 I'm 33 years old ~

🧡 I live with two cats and three dogs (my tabby and torbie cats, my brand new labradoodle puppy, and my housemate's two french bulldogs; see the bottom of my profile for pics!), my partner, and two other roommates~

💙 I'm currently very into cross stitching and I love sending little loose stitches in the mail

💜 I'm a big ol' nerd and I'm always happy to talk about it. Anime? Video games? Hyperfixations of all kinds? Please tell me about yours!

🧡 I really love stickers and glittery things!

💙 I'm part of the LGBT community (I fall under the asexual umbrella), and I'm neurodivergent ♥

💜 In case you couldn't tell, my favorite colors are Purple, Orange and Blue! ♥ Purple is my absolute favorite, but my school colors were orange and blue and they hold a dear place in my heart

🧡 As far as swaps go, I try to send as soon as I can after I get assigned a partner; the next day if possible! I mark my swap as "sent" as soon as I get home from dropping my mail off at the post office, as mail sometimes disappears from my mailbox outgoing.

💙 If I get a swap from you, unless it's completely off the mark from the prompt, you're going to get a 5. And as long as there's thought put into it I'm happy to give you a heart ♥ as well~

💜 I tend to check in with my swap partners if I haven't received a swap by 3 weeks after the deadline for USA swappers (I'm endlessly patient with international). I promise I will ALWAYS try to contact you before I rate if I haven't received a swap!

I have a soft spot for nu-metal, j-rock and j-pop, and mainstream pop music. But, honestly, as long as it's catchy I'll probably enjoy it!

I'd love to get some music recs ♥

Some of my favorites, in case you were curious:

🎵 System of a Down

🎵 Kesha

🎵 The Protomen

🎵 Lil Nas X

🎵 SymaG

🎵 Ado

🎵 The Offspring

🎵 Creepy Nuts

I have a lot of things that I enjoy making, but the things I'm most consistent about are:

💖 Cross stitching

💖 Simple knotted friendship bracelets

💖 Collage (usually postcards)

💖 ATCs ♥

Unfortunately, I am not a very talented artist in the drawing and painting department, though I do still enjoy doodling. I'm learning a little more about paper crafts from my mother in law every day, though. She says I've improved a lot!

And, as for what I'd like to receive?

Anything at all! ♥ I love seeing other people's creativity. Send me things that make you happy to create and I promise you that I will be happy to receive them~

As a general rule, I love romantic comedies ♥ Bring me a romantic comedy and I'll happily watch it, probably more than once. But, I also really love comedies, sci-fi, and adventure movies!

My absolute favorites:

🎬 Blazing Saddles

🎥 Young Frankenstein (let's get these two out of the way early!)

🎬 Ever After

🎥 Clue

🎬 Spirited Away

🎥 Star Trek (2009)

🎬 You've Got Mail

I've been watching a lot of speedruns and playing a lot of games since Certain Events happened in 2020, and video games helped introduce me to a community that's helped keep me sane these past few years ♥ So, I'd say they're pretty important to me!

Here is a list of some of my favorites:

🎮 The Legend of Zelda (pretty much all of them, but my favorites are Majora's Mask, Skyward Sword, and Breath of the Wild)

🎮 Pokemon (definitely all of these, but I'm particularly fond of Blue/Red, Let's Go Eevee, Sword/Shield, and Legends: Arceus)

🎮 Katamari Demacy / Reroll

🎮 Soul Calibur (mostly 2 and 3)

🎮 Fable (the first one only)

🎮 Undertale / Deltarune

🎮 Pretty much all of those Nintendo party games ♥

🎮 anything by the publisher Supergiant (but I'm particularly fond of Hades)

🎮 Ryu Ga Gotoku / Like a Dragon

🎮 Splatoon 2 & 3

🎮 Tetris

Though, honestly, I also love a ton of older titles. So if it's video games in general, it will probably make me smile!

I don't watch a lot of shows as they air on television since I'm a little too attached to my computer for that sort of thing ♥ I'm more of a streaming service kind of girl.

That said, here are some of my favorite shows and anime titles:

✨ TV SHOWS ✨

📼 RuPaul's Drag Race (watch for the queens, not the RuPaul 😂)

📼 The Great British Baking Show

📼 honestly, I like most cooking and baking reality shows ♥ Unless they're TOO cutthroat. I like to see people having fun!

📼 Our Flag Means Death

📼 What We Do In The Shadows

📼 Ted Lasso

📼 Schitt's Creek

📼 The Witcher

📼 The Umbrella Academy

📼 Avatar The Last Airbender

📼 Good Omens, The Sandman

📼 and I'm a huge fan of competition reality shows that show off creativity, like The Big Flower Fight, Blown Away, The Great Pottery Throw Down...

🎀 Hellsing

🎀 Jujutsu Kaisen

🎀 Spy x Family

🎀 Yu-Gi-Oh (but only Duel Monsters really~)

I also have a super long MyAnimeList page!

I've kind of fallen off of watching it as much as I used to, but I'll always be a huge nerd about it at heart ♥ If you want to talk with me about your favorites, or give me recs, I'd love to hear it!

I always have trouble with these lists because my taste in characters is all over the place 😂 But I know sections like this really help me out when I'm trying to personalize my Swap Buddy's mail, so!

Here's an (incomplete, because I'm bad at it) list of my favorite fictional characters:

💖 Roy Mustang, Riza Hawkeye, and Lin Yang from Fullmetal Alchemist

💖 Guido Mista from JJBA

💖 Kirishima Eijirou, Amajiki Tamaki, and Aizawa Shota from My Hero Academia

💖 Ichijouji Ken and Veemon from Digimon

💖 Ruby Moon / Nakuru Akizuki from Cardcaptor Sakura

💖 Pretty much the entire main cast of Yuri on Ice, but I have a collection of merch of Victor's Stammi Vicino outfit, so I guess he's my biggest fave?

💖 Naga the Serpent from Slayers

💖 Talim from the Soul Calibur franchise

💖 Euphemia Li Britannia from Code Geass

💖 L and Misa Amane from Death Note

💖 Yankumi from Gokusen

💖 Bakura Ryou from Yu-Gi-Oh

💖 Ghirahim, Sidon and Mipha from the Legend of Zelda, but I also adore the koroks ♥ I love their design!

💖 Eevee and all of the eeveelutions from Pokemon. I'm also pretty fond of most Normal types, Toxtricity, and Snom~

💖 Dipp from Katamari, but ALL of the cousins are super cute~

💖 Kris Dreemur from Deltarune

💖 Majima Goro from Ryu Ga Gotoku

💖 Pretty much any character Taika Waititi has played

💖 Pretty much any character Karl Urban has played (but especially Leonard McCoy and John Grimm)

I imagine we're all collectors here, yes? ♥ So here's a little list of things that I like to collect in case you wanted to know a little more about me:

💜 Stickers (sticker flakes are great, as well as sticker sheets! I don't mind reward stickers or childish stickers, either. I think they're cute!)

🧡 Washi tape (All are lovely, but patterns and cat themed are the best)

💙 Paper and envelopes (full sheets of paper are best, but interesting paper scraps are also cool! I use the scraps for collages)

💜 Notebooks (I love ones that have little embellishments or decorations on the pages)

🧡 Pens (so many pens, but I enjoy fine-tipped ones in odd colors the most)

💙 Art that friends and penpals have sent me. My partner and I recently started the process of covering one of the walls in our craft room with corkboard so we can display it all!

💜 Keychains

🧡 Pins of all kinds! Enamel, acrylic, metal pinback, whatever!

💙 Plushies, usually of video game things or of cute animals

💜 Cavalier King Charles Spaniel things ♥ My partner and I adore the breed

🧡 French Bulldog things! My housemate has two and I love the little beasts, so we have a ton of Frenchie stuff

💙 Cat things ♥ Especially orange tabby stuff, since it reminds me of my little boy Frumpkin.

💜 Anything having to do with octopuses and jellyfish ♥ Though, honestly, I love most sea creatures and marine life

🧡 Figures, plushies, art, etc of the pokemon Eevee

💙 Figures, plushies, art, etc of the mob Enderman from Minecraft

💜 Side note: I'm not easily offended, so if you want to send me things with swear words, nudity, or something just plain strange, I'll still enjoy it! ♥

❌ Anything with strong scents. I have asthma and weak lungs, so my body tends to not like anything heavily scented.

❌ Loose glitter. I capital-L-Love glitter as a decoration, don't get me wrong, but glitter bombs aren't fun for anyone!

❌ Anything having to do with drugs. I don't generally mind them or people who use them, but I can't / don't want to, so that sort of thing is wasted on me, I'm afraid~

❌ Gore. My partner really enjoys horror tropes, so I'm happy to receive spooky things, but gory stuff gives me nightmares 😅

❌ Homophobia, transphobia, disrespecting anyone's religion or belief system, and that sort of thing~

Hello, my name is Frumpkin!

I am a nervous little orange tabby cat and I was born with only one eye. It took me a very long time to warm up to my family, but now I scream if my mom doesn't give me my morning head kisses.

My favorite activities are shaking my tail like a rattlesnake when my parents get home, stealing the plastic from the top of candy bags, and napping on mom's pillow so my hair gets everywhere 🧡 I don't like cat treats or people food, but I really like toys that make a plastic crinkle!

Henlo, I'm Eurydice Sage!

I go by Eury for short, pronounced "Yuri." Of course, I also go by "Problem" and "Mischief." My mom tells me it's because I am very good at being a cat.

I really like chicken, chicken flavored cat treats, and the stick that my mom sews jingle bells and worms-on-a-string to. (She'd better play with me or I'll throw a fit and run around the room yelling!) I also really love my grandma and climbing up on shelves that I know I'm not supposed to be on 💚 One of these days I'm going to rip down that curtain in my parents' bedroom, too~

Hihi, my name's Noir!

I'm a baby (my mom got me October 29th, when I was only 2 months old), and I like to do baby things! I like running in circles in our backyard! I like to break the squeakers in my toys! I like playing fetch until my mom's arm hurts! 🖤

Mom says it's impossible to get pictures of me because I'm pitch black, but she still takes tons! I think she's very silly! I love my parents a lot, though! They buy me my favorite squeaker and rope toys, and they tell me all the time that I'm a very good girl!

Hi, I'm Bentley Bean and this is my sister Talula Rose!

I'm the cute little brown Frenchie 🤎 I'm an absolute menace, but my family still gives me plenty of treats, so I don't think that matters too much.

My sister is deaf but everyone says she's still way smarter than me 💛 She also sheds more than me. Her little white hairs get stuck to everything!

We're delicate little dogs, but we still get into plenty of trouble. (My family says that they have BOTH of our vets on speed dial.) Still, we get everything we could ever want! We have our own squishy chair in the dining room, we get to go to the coffee shop to meet the baristas every week, and our mommy mixes our dinner up special every night. It's like having our own personal chef 🤎💛
