Jesus, cousins just coming out of the woodwork around here! It only makes sense, but still, I’m laughing a little. Thank you, anon!
Now separated for ease of reading.

devieklutz: a really tough person with a big heart and a tremendous love for animals; owner of a really cute dog. We’ve never really spoken and Devie’s blog has been mostly inactive for the past year or so, so this one’s a little short, sorry – but Devie is a cherished part of the Young Wizards fandom and that is the case for a reason!

im-significant: hey! We play Dungeons and Dragons together sometimes, did you know? Hell yeah. Ana is very friendly! They are my partner in Lutheran politics discussions and tomato adoration. They have fingers in many, many different pies and enjoy sharing them with others, and they have a way of making even boring things like the weather or things I have absolutely no knowledge about like obscure anime enjoyable by dint of sheer enthusiasm. They have a great sense of aesthetic and – reader. Sometimes they enjoy my poetry so much they reblog it. Holy shit.
Here is my favorite story about Ana: when we were on the way to the OG CrossingsCon we had a brief, Ana-prompted “swordfight” with their cane and cousin Sky’s car keys (which had the little button you press to extend the actual metal key bit from the plastic). Ana was humming the Star Wars theme at the time, in homage to my fascination with the key-popping-out process and its similarity to a lightsaber.
Ana is also a con staff member, so a shout out and thanks to them!

punrisenebula, I cannot fucking believe. Bryton, come over here and look at this! Anon, you should be goddamn proud of yourself. Jesus Christ.
Bryton is in charge of puns, okay, and it is a power wielded well. Which is to say terribly. Which is to say well again. They (sorry, I’m not up to date on your pronouns) have always struck me as assured and steady: they seem know exactly what they believe in and why, and also seem to know exactly what they want from life. This is either a tremendous gift or a tremendous skill. (That’s no small beans, even if it’s not true – appearances are also part of the battle!) They also have a really gorgeous creative streak – they are both a good artist with a great eye for stylistic touches that make a piece pop, and a good storyteller – funny and good-humored, with a familiarity that draws the reader in and generates smiles.

geekhyena: Geekhyena is my other source for all things animal science, a role they also fill very well! They apply that same scientific approach to a variety of other things, as well – history, politics, art, nature, health, social justice matters, and more, so every time I see something she’s reblogged on my dash I know I’m in for new information, fascinatingly presented. It’s always a pleasure to learn from them. Alternatively, sometimes I know I’m in for some new good fanfic. There’s some great sideways Harry Potter stuff out there, and Geekhyena seems to have a good handle on it all.
And they’re another con staff member! Thanks for all you do!
Finally, pumpkin bread: 12/10, hell yeah? Hell yeah.
