Okay I'm not very good at introducing myself but I also suffer from a crippling fear that people are going to look at my posts and be like "WHO IS THAT" so this is who I am right here in my post history. Shuu is a nickname I picked up on on an old RP IRC back when the crust was cooling on the earth. I prefer that to my given name, Rose, because sharing my name with (a number of) fictional characters draws comparisons that I can never own up to! Shuu is also the name I... think.... I used on the old mspa forums but I couldn't tell you for sure because I posted there very intermittently. During the warmer months I am an ecologist and science communicator and during the winter I am unem--freelancing, and taking advantage of my boundless free time to draw, write, halfheartedly attempt programming, and sleep until 3 in the afternoon and marathoning yuri on ice. I have lost pretty much all of my decades long friendships this year due to the introduction of popular discourse topic, "threats" making its way into every conversation about everything. So I am looking to make friends with nice people. :)
Hey there, welcome to the forum! It really sucks that you lost a lot of friends, but hopefully you can make more here. We actually have a Yuri on Ice thread if that's someplace you want to start!
