German, cis-female, young but legal in any sense of the word, disabled, battling multiple chronic illnesses. Recently moved back home to München after living Abroad for years.
I am fluent in German, Dutch, and English. My Spanish is quite good, and my French and Italian embarrassingly poor. Feel free to write me in any of my three primary languages.
I maintain a pretty open subscribing/access policy, though I would prefer you let me know how you found me if there's a good chance I'm not going to recognise your screen name when I get the message that you've started following me/granted me access.
The vast majority of my posts are public. Occasionally, due to complications in my personal life, posts get locked down. When that happens, my access list gets temporarily expanded. It shrinks again when the situation calms down.
My journal contains a lot of discussion on chronic illness, pain, medications, coping techniques for disability, a truly-insane family, remarkable friends, my studies, and my day-to-day life. It has been flagged as a journal to be read with discretion for a reason. You have been warned. I mostly write in English, for now.
If you have questions about me, about anything I've referenced in a post, about anything you've heard me say, or someone say about me in channel or elsewhere, please feel free to ask me! As long as you're polite and respectful, and you recognise that I may not respond immediately, due to intermittent internet access and illness/pain levels, I generally am pretty open and happy to talk to people about almost anything. If you've managed to hit one of my topics I don't talk about, I will let you know in a reasonably decent manner.
I beta for the Harry Potter fandom and, more recently, for the Sherlock Holmes fandom. I can and will beta for the Vorkosigan-verse with glee and love. I write as well, but generally my writings are for me, rather than for public consumption. I love beta work, not least because it lets my Slytherin side come out and tell people how things could be better. ;)
I love cats, tea, fluffy down comforters, books, good fanfiction, low-pain days, the company of good friends, Bavaria, kink, BDSM, and interesting conversation. If you want to know anything else, you'll just have to ask me, now won't you? ;)
