things to know

i'm shy, awkward, and tired, tho i can occasionally act like i'm not! i promise that i do want to meet people and talk to them but you might have to poke at me first. if we talk some, please feel free to request my locked twitter because i do talk more there.

warnings & tags

please mind this
