Saw this making the rounds on my dashboard and wanted to add to the chain!

1. Are you named after anyone? Yes, actually. My mom was a very big fan of Jimmy Buffett in the 90s (and still is but it's not a daily occurrence anymore lol) so I'm actually named after his daughter, Savannah. Funny tidbit to mention when people ask if I'm named for the city in Georgia. 😅

2. When was the last time you cried? Oh, girl... I cry all the time. My brain has a hard time tracking emotions over time so I just kind of feel everything very intensely in the moment. I have to use journals to track my emotions over time, but I'm just a fairly sensitive person in general thanks to my upbringing. It is what it is, and I deal with it. I'm just glad I let it out frequently instead of bottling it up like I used to!

3. Do you use sarcasm? Ehhh.... sometimes, maybe? Depends on your definition of sarcasm. I have a hard time figuring out when people are joking with me though, especially at work.

4. What's the first thing you notice about people? Usually their personality to be honest. I had a really hard time making friends as a kid so I pretty much get along with someone right away, or we aren't ever friends. (Not to say that I'm ever outright rude to people, of course.) I guess that's just ADHD to ADHD communication? For example, I had a new coworker start in mid September and I just immediately knew we'd be friends outside of work eventually. Now we go on hikes and hang out! Idk how else to describe the feeling.

5. What's your eye color? Hazel - which is annoying because most people assume I'm full of shit until I'm in good light. 🤣 any other lighting and the green doesn't show through.

6. Scary movie or happy ending? I love creepy-scary vibes but actually watching or playing a scary movie or game is too much for me. I don't enjoy being scared. Happy endings for me!

7. Any special talents? I'm quite good at art when given proper direction. I'm thinking of taking some non credit classes at my local community college to really push me back into my old hobby in a way that isn't just drawing my little OCs on blank backgrounds. I have painted a few things this year, though, like a portrait of my cat, and a flower pot. I really need to get back into it. I'd say my stronger skill at the moment is making exceptional coffee! I love my job and enjoy brewing at home as well.

8. Where were you born? Maryland. (Mid Atlantic US) I still live in MD, but I made the jump from the teeny tiny town I grew up in, to Baltimore. I love the city, and this state. It's little, but we have the ocean, the famous Chesapeake Bay, Assateague Island, and a bit of the Appalachians. When you get past the terrible traffic, there's so much to do here.

9. What are your hobbies? Doodling, playing older video games, hiking/camping, and learning as much as I can about coffee.

10. Do you have any pets? This is such a complex answer for me. I have two cats currently living with my partner and I in our home. Our lease wouldn't allow us to bring my snakes, so my mother is currently caring for my two ball pythons. I hope to have a whole room for them one day when I get a home! My mom also still has one of my childhood dogs, Chance, who is 13, and struggling with dementia and arthritis. He comes to visit me sometimes. :) I miss that big old dopey dog.

11. What sports do you play/have you played? I was actually involved in competitive cheerleading growing up. I remember it fondly, even if I wasn't ever very flexible and kept losing my backhand spring no matter how many times I learned. I had the best jump on my team, though! Unfortunately, I do have permanent damage to my knees and shoulders from it. The knee pain in particular has kept me off the hiking trails for the last year. :(

12. How tall are you? VERY short! I'm 5'2 (even shorter than gillian anderson lol) which is hilarious because my partner is a solid foot taller than me!!

13. What was your favorite subject in school? Growing up, my favorite subject was definitely band class. I can remember every song we played in my 8th grade year. I still miss Mrs. Ewing! She was an incredible teacher and our simple middle school band was actually well known in the area for being better than most high school bands! I also adored Latin class and I'm even friends with my old magistra on facebook 😅 she had a tumblr back in 2015 when I had her class so maybe she's still bouncing around on here somewhere. She made a point to never tell us her username lol

14. Dream job? This has actually changed a lot recently. Now that I've been a barista for 2 years, I've really developed a passion for making coffee. I'm signed up for some business classes at my local community college next month and have ideas for my own coffee roasting business one day. I'm envisioning a shop named for my cat, Oliver. ❤️ Coffee tastes good, and I love the connections you can make with people through it. Idk, it just makes me really happy to see customers enjoy my coffee while catching up with an old friend, or sitting on their laptop doing work all day in the shop while I'm also working. Food service really isn't all bad when you have a great crew.

Thanks for reading all of that! If you see this and you're my mutual (or not) consider yourself tagged and free to copy this.

ABOUT ;

Shadows found Nyx early in life. At the age of six as she slept, the usual shouting rang out through Nyx’s family’s small apartment in Chinatown, New York, her parents at it again. What pulled Nyx from bed was the sound of her baby sister crying in her crib and as Nyx padded quietly down the hall to her room she was stopped in the doorway of her parent’s bedroom, dark eyes wide as she was met with the empty and angry look in her father’s eyes. A loud pop sounded in through the room and tiny eyes were watching her crying mother fall to the floor, sending Nyx’s hands quickly to her ears to cover them before the gun in her father’s hand was turned on himself and he was falling too with another loud pop. 

Nyx’s eyes opened seconds later to find herself standing beside her baby sister’s crib and she lifted her into her arms, carrying her into the dark of the nearby closet to sit and hide holding her. It felt like hours before help came but it was only minutes before the door was being barged through by men and women with bright lights in their hands, flashlights she found herself scared to see after seeing the deaths of her parents like she had. Nyx’s eyes stayed tightly closed to not see any more, but she clutched her baby sister as they were lifted and removed from the building. It took weeks before she was comfortable opening her eyes for more than a few seconds at a time. She bounced back after those first weeks.

Days passed slowly it seemed, but after a few she and her baby sister, Brynn (come to be nicknamed Bynx because as she grew she liked nyx’s name smashed with hers better), were placed in the home of their grandfather. Resilience became Nyx, but she didn’t put her sister down often. She did her best to be the one changing her and feeding her. Their grandfather was a loving man, though very strict and traditional in their Chinese heritage. Nyx came to trust they were both safe she remained adamant and steadfast in raising her sister in the ways that mattered. The right ways.

Their grandfather passed when Nyx was sixteen and Bynx was ten and due to that being their last known living relative, foster care became their home. the state managed to keep the two together in a steady home, however when Nyx graduated high school at the age of seventeen she enrolled first and immediately in online classes, and worked her ass off in a auto garage to show her independence to the state. that with the money left to her by her grandfather and mother, was enough for her to have joint custody with the state over Bynx when she was only 18, Bynx then 12. a year later at nineteen she managed to get sole custody for maintaining both college and work enough to support her little sister still-growing, however Bynx refused her care and she was kept with her foster family. to Bynx it was a push to get Nyx to finally focus on herself and chase what she needed and wanted. 

With Bynx’s word in court final, Nyx put away online classes and went off to school from Brooklyn New York for Rochester, with the NYPD on her dreamsheet. if she could stop monsters like the man she had once called ‘dad’ then she felt she could honor the mother she and her sister should have never lost.

unfortunately secrets put those dreams at risk of never happening.
