Whats the deal with your nicknames?
ok, so Lan is short or "Lanthus" which was a character name I picked up for roleplaying games later in life I found out that not only is that a name of a character in Runescape, but its also a scientific classification. As for my other handle my real name is Jim, I decided on the feminine form "Gem" because some internet friends used to call me "momma" and "momma Jim" didn't feel right.
Would you rather be the best player on a horrible team or the worst player on a great team?
Do you like muffins?
What do you look for/value the most when going into a new piece of media? (I.E. learning something new or a trope you really enjoy)
oh that's a good question! hmm, I suppose it really depends on the media? for movies i think I look more for entertainment, admittedly what I find entertaining is either something cozy or something that toys with established genre tropes. Video games for me are 99% of the time my detox/ relax time so you'll rarely see me playing any competitive team based game because those are anxiety city or me. but I guess if I had to have a golden rule for everything I prefer story crafting over "learning something" and tend to gravitate more towards media that's not necessarily trying to reinvent the wheel or tell me why the wheel is actually bad.
or it can just have coordinated teams and fighting prolly and I'll mark for that.
What is your favourite website and why is it YouTube?
Hi I love you and this isn't a question but actually winter is the best season
Do you have any pets?
surely you've seen me talk about Felicia my calico kitty? she was a stray we took in. I say we because I really didn't think I could handle a pet with my living situation at the time and was kinda guilt tripped into taking her in. love her to bits now though.
yes, she's named after the darkstalker.
Have you ever been to the United Kingdom?
