What's in your journal: dozens of broken links to old fanart; archival fics and collab records; nonsense, blogging
What rating is your journal: adult, but not that racy these days
Interests/Hobbies outside of fandom: quilting, fiber arts, being on boards of nonprofit organizations, writing, tarot, painting, drawing
Do you have a DW/LJ friending policy? open door policy, unless you're only selling something

What you do in fandom (read/write/art/squee etc): these days mostly squee and read. occasional arts, considering writing.
How long you've been in the Marvel fandom: active fandom participation since the MCU, basically; but been reading comics for decades.
Favorite Steve/Tony moment: Avengers Prime
Favorite Steve/Tony universe: selective memory of MCU; old school 616; it's hard to find a universe I don't enjoy.
Rec a Fanwork: I just reread Like a Comet Streaming On by Sineala for probably the 20th time.

Other fandoms/ships you’re into: Harry Potter; BBC Merlin; Avatar: The Last Airbender; Star Wars; occasional others
Exciting fandom plans/What are you working on next? fandom-themed apparel and bags; fandom quilts
Anything else you'd like to share (gif, pic, squee?): I carry action figures around with me, because you never know when it may be necessary for Action Figure Theater to occur:
Steve is disappointed in Tony's life choices.  Again.  #avengers #actionfiguretheater
Steve is disappointed in Tony's life choices. Again.

Come on, Steve, Tony just wants to have some fun ;)

I love that you carry the figures with you, that's great!

I should do more theater with them - I fell off the grid with that after I got laid off. But the action figures shall rise again! My Flickr album needs an update!

Like a Comet Streaming On is sooooooo good. All the wolf feelings! And I don't have any posable Steve or Tony figures, but when I see all the cool photos people come up with I'm very tempted to get some!

I did not expect to have a weakness for werewolf / wolf fic in Marvel fandom - the things comics does! <3

I sometimes carry my tsumtsums around for the same purpose.

Haha, that's great! There are so many collectibles to make photo ops with, it's both awesome and overwhelming.

Aww, yay, action figures! My favorite Marvel action figure is Capwolf.

Is there a Capwolf action figure??? OMG that is the best thing I've heard lately. Sweet.

I can dig up the information if you want it; it was one of the 6" Marvel Legends figures maybe last year, I think? It was a Cap with an alternate Capwolf head.

Here's a picture of mine with my Capwolf TPB and also a picture with my dog.

oh, man, that is amazing! I love the photos.
I tend to stick to the smaller 4" figures (easier to carry, compatible with my 80s GIJoes) but I may have to explore those larger ones someday. :)

Oh god, your non-fandom hobbies all sound awesome. I love crafts and needle work and I love people who see non-profits as their hobbies. I've done a good deal of that myself and I'm at the moment volunteering for a charity. Because, you know, I don't have enough to do...

Action figure theater opportunities! A very good point! We should all start carrying figures with us!

I am actively working on that whole "saying no" thing so that I don't end up on any more all-volunteer Boards anytime soon. ;) But the ones I'm on are fun and interesting, at least.

I'd like to make more hobbies into jobs that pay money - the sewing is a small start, I wonder if Action Figure Theater is terribly lucrative? Maybe that could be a reward level on my Patreon: custom Action Figure Theater. LOL.

What sort of crafting do you do?

Saying no is a super nifty skill to have. Especially if you do lot of volunteering. It's been something I had to learn over the years, haha. As much as I want to do all things, I need to know my limits.

Good luck with that! XD

All kinds. My family always did crafts and I grew into it - from paper craft to all kinds of handiwork. I sew some of my clothes and things for the household. I used to Cosplay and loved things like building props from all kind sof materials and right now I'm getting back into working with paper mache and polyemer. (I started with pottery and play dough pictures when I was a little kid and watched my mum make the most amazing things. It's very relaxing for me to go back to it once in a while.)
