Salutations, hi, hello! Nice to see you stopping by, why don’t’cha grab a cup of tea and ignore the glitter sticking to every surface of this blog? Nobody knows where it came from. It’s probably maybe not radioactive or a biohazard. -Squirrelly
We have finally made that new and accurate intro post 💛 -Lumen
Come talk to us! We’re all pretty friendly, and we can’t bite ya through the computer (Yet) -?
Some important info about the system
[pt: Some important info about the system] (because this is an intro, after all! -Linen)
When referring to us collectively, use they/them and refer to us as a group unless otherwise specified (I.e. post tagged with a specific name, you know who is in front, etc)
We’re all creatives, though our various passions range from art to writing to composition, and past that a few more esoteric things
We support all trans people, including any nonbinary folks, agender folks, and people who use neopronouns :)
If you’re a friend of ours, and we ever upset you, please tell us! We’re always working on ourselves and our friendships, and we would like to have constructive discussions :] We’ll let you know if it’s a bad time, and return when we’re able
We support the agendas of crows, ravens, magpies, and other miscellaneous corvidae
We’re currently under a LOT of external stress and thus are splitting a lot & often blurry. Be patient!
We have a hard time staying in touch sometimes due to anxiety and an often busy life. It doesn’t mean we don’t care, and we’re always happy to see folks reach out
Individual intros coming soon! Our lovely directory will soon at some point be all full of links! -?
Tagging System (In regards to who wrote what)
[pt: Tagging System (In regards to who wrote what)] (Tagging system? I thought we were The Eclectic Collective! -Lumen)
When we’re not too unidentified or blurry, we’ll have a signoff with our name (I.e. -Forest/Verdance for me. The / denotes multiple names for one person, whereas an & would denote a cofront (I.e. -Verdance & Nutmeg & Juniper, generally placed in order of influence though not always)
If we’re very blurry, or someone is unidentified, unnamed, they’ll generally sign off with a variant of “-Blurry” or “-?”
Some of us have a few aliases, but I think that’s a them thing and I’d rather not interfere given I haven’t met the ones that do yet. -Verdance
