Hi! I’m Alimere. I’m trying out dreamwidth because I’m trying to have a more ~sociable fandom experience~ and am hoping this’ll be a good platform for that kind of thing. I was a light user of livejournal many many years ago, but have not had much of an online life until getting involved in fandom this year.

I’ll likely post sporadically. Largely, fandom-y posts will be public and real-life-hobbies posts will be private, but I will also decide whether posts are private or public on a chaotic and ad-hoc basis. Say hi if we have mutual interests and I’d be happy to add you!

QUICK FACTS ABOUT ME: 30-ish, they/any pronouns, writer & artist

FANDOM INTERESTS:
  • primarilyHaikyuu, Umineko
  • but I also likea good amount of other anime/manga, including Blue Period, Golden Kamuy, Skip and Loafer, Frieren, Yuri on Ice, Carole and Tuesday, Digimon Tamers, Blue Lock, March Comes In Like A Lion | video games, including Stardew Valley, Chicory: A Colorful Tale, Hollow Knight, Hades, Overwatch, Ace Attorney, Pokemon, Legend of Zelda | misc shows, films, and books, including Star Trek, Star Wars, the Old Kingdom books, Piranesi, Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, Amphibia

(And the first few days of December. Media-wise, at least.)

  • Higurashi: When They Cry: episodes 3 & 4! The end of episode 3 really piqued my interest… I have a feeling I’m going to be cruising through the rest of Higurashi a lot faster now. The parallels with Umineko are actually really interesting! I’ll have to write a bit more about this soon.
  • Haikyuu rewatch: middle of season 4… I’m already feeling nostalgic about reaching the end for a second time. It’s been nice to not feel driven to watch a ton all at once - I feel like I watched the back half of s4 in about a day because I wanted to know what would happen so badly…
  • A Short Hike: replayed this with a friend who had never really played a video game - it was lovely!
  • Chicory: A Colorful Tale: replayed over Thanksgiving - this story is SO moving I must write a fanfic about it. I honestly want to replay it again like, now.
  • March Comes In Like A Lion: slowly making my way through this anime. It’s just lovely.
  • Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End: watched the first four episodes of the anime after seeing it pop up a bunch of places, and it was stunningly beautiful and had a wonderful vibe. The other night I read the first 22 chapters of the manga, lol. I’m probably going to binge the rest of it very soon…
  • Blue Eye Samurai: watched the first 5-ish episodes of this in the past few days. It’s alright, but a bit too much of a bummer for my disposition right now.
  • Burnout Syndromes: finding the acoustic cover of “Hikari Are” (Haikyuu s3 opening) has been life changing. I rly like these guys actually. Might listen to them more next year.
  • ”Nano”: I ”kind of” did nanowrimo. (Tumblr post w/ word counts and commentary lol)

I have read like no books this year lol. No judgement on myself I guess! I’ve read many words of fanfiction (I have not done this at all in other recent years) and most of them were just as meaningful as any book would be.

I’m taking part in a secret santa exchange organized by the Haikyuu Creator Hub (if you’re the person who got my assignment, hi/thank you/sorry) and was taking this unusual opportunity to request some rarepairs... I was writing up some explanations of my favorite rare ships for Kenma and Akaashi and got a little carried away. I was embarrassed by the thought of my request being ultra long on ao3 so… I am posting my short explanations for my ships here.

have you ever thought about shipping kenma and or akaashi with… )

Maybe sometime I’ll go on and on about more of my favorite rare hq ships and collate them into a masterpost or something so that I can reference it later. Who knows.
