Name: Pom
Age group: over 35
Country: USA (and want out. I’m trying.)
Subscription/Access Policy: Anyone 18+ can subscribe and have access if asked. 30+ is personally preferred, but open to any adult, honestly.

I lock anything related to IRL, photos, or more personal mental health ramblings behind access, so you won’t miss much cause everything else is fair game and public.

No conservatives and Christians.

I have no interest in incest or adult/minor ships, so I’d like no interaction with people who consume that.

Just be a nice and cool person, mate.


Main Fandoms: Right now? The Amazing Digital Circus, The Moomins, bit of Undertale and trying Delta Rune, and Delicious in Dungeon
Other Fandoms: Octopath Traveler, Pokemon, Yuri on Ice, Story of Season/Harvest Moon series, Marvel, Team Fortress 2, Ace Attorney/Gyakuten Saiban

Fannish Interests: fanfic, fanart, making and seeing peoples’ playlists for ships and characters, graphics and icons, edits (tiktok style), crack-memes and shit posts about characters

OTPs and Ships: I admit, they tend to change with the season, but right now?
Jax/Pomni from The Amazing Digital Circus
Snufkin/Moomin from the Moomins
Falin/Marcille from Dungeon Meshi
Alfyn/Therion from Octopath Traveler


Heavy/Medic from Team Fortress 2
Deadpool Wolverine (Wade/Logan) from Marvel
Viktor/Yuri from Yuri on Ice
Sebastian/Agni from Black Butler
Morty/Falkner from Pokemon
America (Alfred)/Japan (Kiko) from Hetalia
Kinda dabbled into Mettaton/Papyrus from Undertale for a time.
Phoenix/Edgeworth and Klavier/Apollo are my Ace Attorney ships


Favourite Movies: The Super Mario Brother movies, Deadpool & Wolverine, The Avengers, Good Burger, Promare, Kiki’s Delivery Service, and Princess Mononoke
TV Shows: mostly 80’s and 90’s cartoons. (Nerd about old cartoons with me?) A little South Park. Maybe some mind rot competitive reality shows like Rupaul’s Drag Race to play in the background. I also like Tokusatsu, like Kamen Rider and Super Sentai

(My favorite Kamen Riders being Kamen Rider Gaim, Kamen Rider Den-O, and Kamen Rider Fourze…)

Books: The Fire’s Stone by Tanya Huff and Between Mischief and Magic by Marissa Serrao. I am on the hunt for lesbian content, so recs for books are always encouraged.

Music: Enya, Fleetwood Mac, 80’s music, Blackmore’s Night, Nightwish, Evanescence, celtic music, Do As Infinity, GACKT, Malice Mizer, Ariana Grande

Games: Ace Attorney series, Octopath Traveler, Story of Seasons/Harvest Moon, Tomodachi Life, Snufkin: Melody of Moominvelley, Bloody Roar, Dead or Alive, Dynasty Warriors, Warriors Orochi, Sengoku Basara, Fire Emblem 9: Path of Radiance, Fire Emblem 10: Radiant Dawn, random cozy games like cat cafe simulators or whatever, Pokemon (my favorite region is Johto.), Megaman

Comics/Anime/Misc: Marvel (specifically Spiderman, X-men, and Deadpool comics), I like some DC too (Batman and Superman are a jam.), Dungeon Meshi (Delicious in Dungeon), CLAMP (especially like Cardcaptor Sakura and Tsubasa), Hetalia, She Likes to Cook and She Likes to Eat, Yuri on Ice, Pokemon, Neon Genesis Evangelion.

Anything else? I’m trying to be better about interacting with friends’ posts, so don’t feel bad if I’m not replying a lot; I tend to be busy or I see your posts and genuinely support you and feel useless on what to reply with. I’m also on discord if you’re more active there and you like to message. (Can get Line again, too.)

I’m a shipper and hopeless romantic, so don’t mind me shipping characters or analyzing and being fixated on my OTPs and favorite characters at the same time.

I'm a cat parent. I hope you like posts about my cat.

One of my interests when it isn't fandom is witchcraft, herbs, and Paganism. I'd love to meet fellow spiritual folks.

Architectural terms, stairs

[personal profile] oldshrewsburyian posting in [community profile] little_details
Hello all, I'm trying to find specific vocabulary for staircases. I'm looking at an interior staircase in a Georgian home (but the stair itself might be later.) The thing that strikes me as distinctive is that it surrounds a hall on three sides, having one landing that runs along an exterior wall. I love the look of it, and I'm trying to find vocabulary more specific than risers, balustrades, landings, which is what I tend to get when looking for glossaries.

Casino table games

Jul. 12th, 2026 05:42 pm
elisheva_m: a water colour rainbow on a water colour sky with the word hope (Default)
[personal profile] elisheva_m posting in [community profile] little_details
Is there anyone here who knows enough about betting on casino table games to help me work out a few things for my novel? Table games please, not slots. Sitting at a machine stuffing coins isn't that interesting in prose and doesn't provide much room for interaction.

One scenario is that he loses big and blames another player for it. Or something else happens which is plausible for a casino and makes him mad but doesn't involve the gambling directly. I have no experience. It doesn't have to be justified anger, he's hair trigger. My one idea is that another player scatters his chips, but I'm not sold on that. Spilling drinks happens in a hotel bar five chapters earlier.

The other scenario is that someone is intentionally egging him on to bet badly. This isn't necessary, just a slightly wicked idea. It would be a later scene.

He favours simpler games as he's always drunk & high. From what I've been able to find, roulette might be the best - simple mechanism but a complex set of betting options. I could pick and choose from pages about the game but I have no idea how the flow of it might go and it would be cool to write the scene around a plausibly realistic sequence of bets. The other players know what they're doing and how to play the odds.

If you can suggest something around another simple table game, please do. I'm not attached to roulette - his eyes can go blurry watching it go round and round another time. Poker is probably too complicated, blackjack is easy and I use that for a scene where there's little detail about the gambling.

Thanks for any help.

 Tried my hand at the mixing flags trend. I like the colors <3
(flags: panplatonic, aroace, nonbinary)

Flag with 5 stripes, from top to bottom: soft orange, very soft orange, very soft violet, mostly desaturated dark blue, very dark grayish orange.
