I've been writing fanfiction since the '90s. While I do post in-progress snippets of fanfiction I am writing here (you can check the "my writing" tag for that) the main place to read my written work is on AO3.
In case of shenanigans here is the address: https://archiveofourown.org/users/SofiaDragon/works
I use my bookmarks as a collection of stories I have read and enjoyed enough not to lose. I also use the Recommended Stories feature, so if you want to see a list of fantastic stories, you can utilize the filter or just click here.
I reblog a lot of things that catch my attention, but mostly fandom stuff and current events. There are a lot of different fandoms I am interested in, and sometimes I'll go back to the stories that first got me interested in writing. From ACD's Sherlock Holmes and Star Trek to the latest MCU movie and Spy X Family or even Eminence in Shadow - I like a wide range of story types so long as the characters are well crafted. Give me someone who seems so real they can walk right off the page or a setting I can sink into, and I'm happy. If you like that sort of thing, pull up a chair and stay a while.
I do not blog about charity for spiritual reasons. That I do not reblog posts or answer asks about charity means nothing about what I do or do not support offline.
More personal stuff about who I am under the cut!
Autistic spectrum cis female demi-aromantic. US American, social-democrat, has been overseas but not as much as I'd like. Can vaguely understand tourist Japanese and Spanish with context to help, but only fluent in English.
I put a lot of worldbuilding in my writing with a dash of humor and dramatic irony. In IRL conversation I'm sarcastic and enjoy ethical and political debates - and I have the privilege of coming from a family where we don't take those disagreements personally and will happily "devil's advocate" a position just to prolong the discussion if the conversation is productive in finding the flaws in the political ideas we support. Especially on the internet, hot intellectual debate of serious issues without catching feelings is a rare commodity.
I studied world religion, psychology, and creative writing as an Early Childhood Education major for my first round in college. Then I had to go make money due to a family calamity, so I swapped to Small Business Management and learned about economics, politics, teaching adults, and bookkeeping. Eventually, I took a job at a small chocolate shop and learned how to make gourmet chocolates, because the high stress and long hours of my management job was actually killing me due to chronic medical issues.
I believe that most of the fan criticisms of series and movies come from a place of love, since we wouldn't care so much if we weren't invested. You will see posts tagged "critical" or "criticism" related to fandoms that I adore. That thing I said about intellectual debates? It absolutely applies here.
I also tag political posts. If you don't want to see commentary on real life drama when browsing please filter your tumblr - I highly recommend a side blog with "#politics" blocked if you don't like seeing that stuff when you are in fun fandom mode generally. Curate your experience.
I've had some mental health struggles related to my poor physical health (chronic illness sucks) and fertility problems stemming from a hormone imbalance caused by working in an office where my boss used testosterone cream irresponsibly, don't try me on gender dysphoria it isn't a trigger it's waving a flag in front a bull. I will give you the horns. I'm very strong on trans/genderqueer issues partly because I have experienced the distress of my body doing masculine things like growing a full beard against my will and partly because I have a cousin more than 20 years older than me who transitioned when I was a kid and is one of the most actualized and happy people I've ever known.
Nobody should be forced to use their body or perform their life in a certain way for the benefit of other people contrary to their nature or will. This also includes medical privacy and legalizing [while responsibly regulating] most drugs. You will see this theme in some of my stories and it colors all of them in the sense that my idea of what is morally correct includes that kind of freedom.

No Petrification AU where Gen and Senku somehow became friends (because Inagaki said they would anyway), but Gen is so locked in his "everyone loves me for my status" thing that he has a hard time believing Senku doesn't, even if he gives ALL the signals that he doesn't care one millimetre. But Gen loves so much spending time with Senku, he feels so happier with him, allowed to be himself without being judged, that he doesn't care about using his status for Senku.
Senku never asks for anything, so it always returns to Gen paying for their outing. Sometimes even going the extra mile for the best experience. Senku just likes to hang out with Gen. He's really smart and interesting and he understands him well, even with his bluntness, and his advices have helped being less abrasive.
One day, Senku complains that his laptop keeps getting very slow and freezes when he tries to do any science simulation on it. It's a little annoying when he has to reboot it to try again.
Gen listens to him and sympathise with his problem.
The next day, Senku receives a package at his university dorm. A brand new, high end laptop with an external hard drive and a new carry bag.
Senku feels a little uncomfortable with the gift and thinks maybe he should start pushing this friendship to be more equal. Do better for Gen.
"Your most important survival skill is asking for help."
THIS, it makes me so damn pissed off when parents try and normalize that asking for help is a taboo thing!

Byakuya: Alright, Senku. I know you. It has to be someone who can actually keep up with that massive brain of yours. Itβs Chrome, isnβt it? You two are always in that shed making weird noises and calling it "science."
Senku: Chrome? His brain operates on basic curiosity and rock collecting. Ten billion percent incorrect.
Byakuya: Okay, okay......then itβs Tsukasa!! Enemies to lovers, the ultimate clash of muscle and mind!!!
Senku:[Sighs] Do you honestly think I want a boyfriend who can kill a lion with his bare hands? I value my ribs, old man.
Senku: He tries to put a price tag on oxygen. Next.
Byakuya: Man, this is impossible. You're too picky.
β‘
Byakuya: I found a clue! I was looking for a screwdriver in your lab and I found long, fancy hair strands on your desk! Black and white! Who do we know with hair like that?
Senku: [Freezes]
Byakuya: Gasp! No way.
Senku: ....What?
Byakuya: You're dating a skunk!!
Senku: ..........
Byakuya: Senku, I raised you to love nature, but this is a step too far!
Senku: You are an idiot. A genuine, certified astronomical idiot.
This picture is even cut off right before the most interesting thing on this outfit. Because according to the figurine, this diva went so far as to have a big slit in his skirt. Risky as fuck.
AO3 will be down for about 2 hours starting at 08:00 UTC on August 21 (what time is that for me?) while we prepare some improvements to collection browsing. Please follow our status page for updates.
I love when people try to gotcha me on my stance that all sports should be gender integrated with "even American football???" because I can instantly come back with "oh lmao, no, I don't think ANYONE should play American football at all, it's way too dangerous" like nice try but I know no amount of testosterone is going to protect you from the profound, life ruining health issues caused by getting repeated severe concussions over the course of several years. No one should play this sport.
Like do you really think muscle mass or gender/sex can protect you from CTE?? You think men are naturally more resistant to concussions?? Because idk how else you square this sport being too dangerous for cis women and people afab but perfectly safe for cis men and people amab. Having a testosterone dominant endocrine system isn't gonna do shit in the face of traumatic brain injury. Be serious. This sport should not exist.
Honestly it's pretty weird to me that people dismiss the harm football players go through as fine because they're men, especially when so many players are black men. Always remember the argument that women are weaker than men is also an argument that men are stronger than women and can withstand more injury and abuse which isn't true, and absolutely ties into eugenicist beliefs about black bodies while obscuring their suffering as not existing because they're men and football is only dangerous for women, so how could they be hurt?
Systems can exploit men too, especially non-white or otherwise marginalized men who also deserve to be defended and liberated from said system's devaluation of their humanity and mistreatment.
I am firmly of the opinion that if a country can't find enough people willing to fight in a war, then the country doesn't fucking want to have the war.

On another note, not sure how to call it in English, but in German you say Arbeitszeitbetrug and thatβs what Iβve been doing the past few days when i was drawing Sengen slice of life (doing anything but work while on the clock lol)
So, unlike Eridians, we discovered fire very early on and so our civilization kinda grew up with combustion right? We've had thousands of years to normalize it and get comfortable with the idea of using it casually for warmth or cooking etc.
In contrast, Eridians had to discover fire in a lab since their atmosphere doesnt have O2 like ours. So they dont have, like, an entire culture normalizing fire.
> Be me. Rocky the Eridian cosmonaut
> Tell Grace about Eridian space elevator design made out of Xenonite. Grace very impressed, says humans only dream about making space elevator.
> Odd? Ask Human friend Grace how humans got into space. Expecting some high tech solution since science humans clearly know more physics.
> Grace explains Humans strapped other Humans on top of Fire-Explodatron-9000 machines made out of weak human metal, basically Eridian cardboard, then shot them into orbit. Grace say the fire it makes is quite pretty to look at
