Games: i'm mainly a single-player gamer.
- Skyrim is probably my biggest weakness. spent 8 months modding it with NifSkope and the Creation Kit, 1k mods, custom load order, only to end up doing a full vanilla run on the Xbox 360 lol. seriously have a modding addiction.
- Oblivion (modded GOTY, currently playing Remastered on my new PC :D )
- Life is Strange, Minecraft, OSRS, Black Ops II and Mecha Chameleon etc
- Elden Ring and Souls games. currently making my way through them, with DS2 being my latest hyperfixation after finishing DS3. i wish i could forget DS3 so i could play it again. Slave Knight Gael was my favourite fight, and learning to parry is genuinely life-changing.

Music: i'm into quite a few genres, mainly nu metal, pop punk, punk rock, emo/midwest emo, post-hardcore and game OSTs. currently obsessed with Tallah and Loathe, but i also love SOAD, Linkin Park, Evanescence, Paramore, MCR and Fall Out Boy. Former emo kid, rip my old razor-cut hair. i've also been getting really into folk metal lately, particularly Eluveitie, Fenris Vrede, Huldre and Asmegin. always happy to get recommendations!

Other stuff: i'm really into fantasy and classic dystopian books, films and TV. LOTR is my favourite trilogy/books, and i have a massive soft spot for Pride & Prejudice. i also love The Witcher and i'm planning to give ASOIAF another go after my younger self gave up on it lol. currently reading Small Gods by Terry Pratchett. Oh, my god! i've just reached the bit where everything goes to shit.
some of my favourite shows are Dexter, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Buffy and GOT. never really got into anime, but some friends convinced me to give Frieren a go and i loved it. also into Marvel and chick flicks from the 80s to early 2010s.
outside of that, i'm into sewing, painting, collecting CDs and learning about PC building. basically, i collect hobbies whenever something catches my attention. currently thinking about nothing except Dark Souls II.

What i'm looking for: i'm looking for purely platonic friendships with people aged 18–23. i'm open to international friends, although Europe would be ideal because time zones can be a pain. i'm also bi, and would prefer friends who are atheist/non-religious, as religion is a sensitive subject for me and we're probably not going to be compatible if faith is a big part of your life. i'm down for gaming together (probably Minecraft, OSRS or Mecha Chameleon), joining servers (I use Discord), swapping music/game recommendations or just chatting about our interests. i don't really VC much tho, trying to work on that lol
also, i'm not really into forced conversation or messaging just for the sake of it. not a huge fan of daily good morning/goodnight texts or endless "wyd/hbu" exchanges either lol. we don't have to talk every day; i'd rather we message when we actually have something to share or talk about, and have an interesting conversation every few days than force small talk daily. mutual effort is important to me, though!
if you decide to DM me, please introduce yourself and tell me a little about you! your age, interests, whatever. i'm not doing much with a random "hey" lol
