Hello, and thank you for interest in getting to know me! I am a lady of a dreamy disposition who spends her days working really hard on things that not many people care about...! I am a 2nd year literature and Latin major at the University of Zagreb. I follow gyaru fashion and lifestyle, and have been since summer 2021 - you can learn more about that if you click "gyaru" in the navigation bar! The rest of this site will be devoted more to the things I create and enjoy than me myself.

THINGS I CREATE:

> original art and fanart: I have had a passion for the visual arts since I was a young child, but it was rekindled in me in 2019 when I visited a beautiful art show in Graz where artists from all over the world combined the traditional crafts of their home countries with contemporary art! The strength of the human spirit of our days connecting with those fron bygone times inspired in me a strong desire to start reaching out to people by creating art, and I have been working on improving ever since!

> original novellas and character study fanfiction: although I dove into it much later than I did into drawing, writing is even more special and personal to me. I see it as a way of seeking and offering empathy and warmth within a world that was not made for me! I wrote my first original novella in short intervals between 2018 and 2021, and my second, longer one in January 2023. Both are avalible to read here, so do check them out, and let us cross some of that vast distance between us!

> games: I am not a passionate gamer, but I find games a wonderful medium for communicating stories and ideas. I am currently halfway done with a mystery text game whose demo you can find on this site, too, and in the planning stages of a long visual novel - you can also find concept art and development notes around here! I hope I'll get to share both someday in a more complete form!

THINGS I ENJOY:

> ENSEMBLE STARS: I have been a fan of Enstars since February 2019, and though I lost interest in the game rather soon, the stories quite drastically changed my life and worldview for the better. However, I am unhappy with where the franchise is currently heading, and I'm extremely pedantic and nitpicky about how to interact with the stories and fans. I consider Akira's stories between 2015 and 2019 (concluding with EP:Link) "canon", along with some carefully cherry-picked stories from the Music era, but I in general discard the "!!" continuity and live in a beautiful past where Akira had something to say other than "please let me get paid!" My favorite characters are Eichi (who I have an itabag of, including a nui in a maid dress!), Wataru, Knights and Shu (who I have small nuis of!) A picture of my complete Enstars collection:

> DANMEI NOVELS AND DRAMAS: I really like the Winter Begonia drama, Word of Honor/Faraway Wanderers, Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation/The Untamed, Heaven Official's blessing and The Earth is Online. I have read/watched some more, but these are my favorites. At some point I will revamp my list of danmei reviews and post it here, but for now just know I love strange and suicidal gay men.

> SHOUJO KAGEKI REVUE STARLIGHT: Although I prefer BL by a wide margin, yuri is cool too when codependent and scary!

> REVOLUTIONARY GIRL UTENA: My favorite anime of all time, life changing in every way!

Besides being into various media, I also enjoy studying gyaru fashion & blogs, baking and reading! My favorite books are Babel, or the Necessity of Violence by R.F. Kuang and Pachinko by Min Jin Lee.

THAT'S IT FOR NOW :)!
