[ID: three pieces of fanart of Nirvanah Crane from the Red Dwarf episode “Holoship”. The first piece of fanart is a pencil drawing coloured in with pencil crayons and lined with pen. It shows Nirvanah from the waist up, wearing her red and gold uniform. Her dark red hair is pulled up into a half-beehive hairstyle, with the back section and a few strands at the side of her face hanging loose. She has her right arm angled as if her hand is one her waist, and she is looking just to the right of the viewer. The second piece is a pencil drawing of Nirvanah wearing her dark nightshirt and dressing gown. She is shown from the chest up and is leaning to her right slightly, her eyes glancing to the left. The last piece of fanart is a pencil drawing in a more simplified cartoon-like style. It shows Nirvanah from the waist up. She is leaning backwards and her left elbow is resting on a ledge. A wide smile is drawn on her face as she stares off to the side. Some construction lines are still visible on her face. /End ID]

Things about me if you're nosy enough to care

Yo wassup, I'm Evie or Eve or really whatever. It's just a nickname, I've got plenty so I'm not picky. As long as it's not disrespectful I usually won't care.

I'm dyslexic so there may be some odd spelling or grammar things, my apologies. I catch a lot of them because I have a pretty thorough editing process but I'm still human. If you see them you can always leave a comment about it and I'll fix it as soon as I can.

I've been on tumblr a year but only reposting and vibing, this is my first attempt actually posting anything. I've actually been writing fanfic since I was in middle school and I started the 39 Clues series but it has always been for myself and always on paper. This year I got super into the Xmen trilogy and started typing fanfiction for the first time ever which is what gave me the confidence to do this.

I am a college student (who's currently drowning in assignments) so if I go offline for long periods of time, it's safe to assume that's why. I want to use this as an outlet and just to keep my writing skills up when I have the time. That being said I'm super open to requests and ideas. So:

Requests:

I will NOT write: rape; incest; anything scat, vomit, or urine

There are other things I won't write but those fall into two categories:

1. There is wiggle room. For example, I don't like age gaps but if I like the prompt I might modify the request slightly to be something I'm comfortable with like keeping the gap the same but aging up both characters.

2. Other things are specific to my own stuff that I don't think I could fully articulate without explaining and I don't owe strangers on the internet explainations. For example, if I can help it I will not be under the influence of substances (for personal reasons) although, I'm okay with writing a character being under the influence of alcohol or weed or whatever BUT I won't write it if you (the requester) doesn't tell me what to include. Like symptoms, feelings, vibes, etc.

Fandoms/things I'll write for:

This isn't an exhaustive list, just what's on the top of my head/what I'm most passionate about. Please feel free to ask about other media as this list may not be updated or it might be something I forgot

-Xmen trilogy specifically Logan Howlett, Jean Grey, Scott Summers

-Avengers

-The Mentalist

-House MD

-Batman/DC specifically Dr. Crane, Batman, any of the Robins

-NBC's Hannibal specifically Matthew Brown

-Arcane season 1

-The spiderverse specifically Miguel O'Hara

-Detroit become human

-Spider-Man

-Streamers/Youtubers specifically Jschlatt, Ted Nivison, Charlie Slimesicle

-Dexter specifically Debra Morgan, Miguel Prado, Rudy Cooper

I will make a masterlist when I figure out how. Uhhhh I think that's all. Again, if I do something wrong either socially or setting up my blog or the writings themselves, please don't hesitate to tell me. Thanks!

Minnesota Dioramas at the Bell Museum

A series of intricate dioramas at the Bell Museum in St. Paul, Minnesota, depict snapshots of flora and fauna from locations across the state. The earliest dioramas date from around 1917, while the most recent were created in the 1950s. All received a full refurbishment in 2017, when the museum moved to its new home. PBS produced a half-hour documentary on the move, which is available to view for free.

Kenyan birds super-set

I am not a birder by any stretch, and struggle to photograph birds (so much moving around! so many branches!). But Kenya is absolutely packed with remarkable birds, and there were a couple of nice birders in our group. So, I learned about lots of birds just by having them around.

Along with the showstopper birds like the lilac-breasted roller, the secretarybird, and the goliath heron, there were hundreds of gorgeous birds where I barely caught a photo, and plenty of less flashy species that were just fascinating to watch. So, here are a few of them. I didn't caption the individual photos, but did try to list them all in the tags.
