Hello, I suppose. Greetings. Good afternoon, or morning, or night, or whatever time of day it is for you.

I'm Kino46, formerly known as LifeOfTheLost. The former username I'd made when I was about twelve and therefor extremely 'angsty'. Or, an angsty wannabe. I had nothing to angst about. (edit: had stuff to angst about but didn't understand it back then so it doesn't count)

Anyway, I'm a human who enjoys anime, manga, and manhua, and comics, and books, and writing, and fanfiction. I also enjoy the presence of a select few people as well as moderated isolation.

I technically have four fanfictions up. I will only be posting on two of them. There Goes Hoping, which is updated every two weeks unless said otherwise (edit: said otherwise. Was on Hiatus, am trying to get back in the swing of things), and Go Left. Go Left is a zombie apocalypse fanfiction that I find hilarious to write, but I will not be following a writing schedule for it. And so far, only one chapter has made it past my 'this is acceptable' standard. (edit: Go Left is discontinued)

AND! Dearest readers, my editor is Rosemist, found here

Rosemist

And she's awesome. Edits all my stuff. You seen the older works? Her beginning stages of editing. See the newer ones? Advanced stages of editing. She's a boss, man. If you ever look at our previous work, World's Collision, and then compare it to There Goes Hoping? You'll see what I'm talking about. I'd like to say it's just that my writing that has gotten better, but I'm not a liar and I really, really want to make sure ya'll know who to recognize. Rosemist, who is my actual sister in real life, is probably the best Beta Reader anybody could get their hands on. I'm super lucky to already know her. Check her out!

And I got fanart!

Fanart!

I try to answer all comments, or questions, if possible, so feel free to ask! If it does take me a while, then you can either pester again or just wait. I have a bit of social anxiety so sometimes it takes me a bit of time to actually work up the confidence to see what people want from me. So um. Yeah.

Uh, here's a quote I can't remember finding but still really like so I'll drop it here.

"There is always another choice. No matter what your circumstances are, your situation, your objectives or conditions, there'll always be another option you haven't looked at yet. Find it. If you don't like it, find another. In the end, what move you make is your choice--never is it forced upon you."

Now. Onto the more serious stuff, for those who bothered sticking around.

I'm 21 years old, female, and have been dealing with some pretty severe mental disorders. Borderline suicidal for a while. I've gotten better these last few months, starting from probably March 2020 timeframe? Still figuring things out with my life. I've finally come off of meds that kept me distant enough to not feel like the world was swallowing me whole, and I've come to the conclusion that the real world sucks. Like, total balls. There's some happy things though. I love my sister, I love my dog, I love my mushroom nightlight because ya'll don't understand how happy it makes me to see this glowing mushroom in the middle of the night when I can't sleep otherwise. Definitely recommend.

I'm also a fan of working out because muscles are extremely attractive to me, specifically on myself, so yeah. Abs. Pecs. Shoulders, oh gosh the shoulders. A good set of shoulders and I would murder.

Anyway.

Yeah!

Thanks for taking the time to stick around, I guess.
