General
Name/Nickname: [personal profile] dr_zook
Age Group: mid thirties
Country: Germany
Pronouns: they/them

You
Do you have any hobbies?: reading, hiking, cooking, art history, travelling, writing, watching musicians do their magic
Do you have any interests, that wouldn't fall under a hobby?: (ant)arctic explorers going mad, astrophysics, Belgian symbolists and finding their works IRL
Any dislikes?: terfs, slugs, dog poo stuck to your soles
Are you into fandom?: Yes! Some manga/anime (Saiyuki, Weiß Kreuz, Blade of the Immortal), other shows (The Witcher, Black Sails, True Detective), books (Krabat, the Bible, Eagle of the Ninth), Norse/Greek Mythology, and RPF (Renaissance personnel, metal musicians *coughs*). Each year I'm very much lookingn forward to Yuletide. ♥
What does your day to day look like?: Going to work (I'm a cobbler), going home, rummaging through the internet, talking to my spouse on the phone in between (long-distance relationships suck), reading, writing. On the weekends and during holidays: anything else. ;)

Entertainment
What do you like to watch?: You don't mean freighters crawling along rivers, right? I like shows like True Detective, Black Sails, Beforeigners and the like. Loved Star Trek TNG, Voyager and especially DS9! And Sailor Moon. And James McAvoy tends to lure me into endless Youtube spirals. *blushes*
What movies do you enjoy?: Plan B (the Argentinian), Fight Club, Happy Together, Tropic Thunder, Xavier Dolan movies!, 28 Days/Weeks later, Ravenous
Do you play games? If so, what do you like?: I do like board and card games! I'm easy to bring to the table, really. Playing for the fun of it, and to win, of course. ;)
If you like to read, what do you read?: Fanfiction! I swear, without it I would have gone completely ballistic during the last years. Apart from that: anything good, I guess? Not so much crime, who-dunnit stuff. Currently I'm reading (and enjoying) Susanna Clarke's Piranesi, one of my favourites is Pat Barker's Regeneration trilogy.
What kind of music do you listen to?: Almost anything between crusty sludge metal, death metal, Renaissance madrigals, and Motown? If the rhythm catches me I'm on board I guess. (You can also check out my interests over at my DW profile page!)

Journal & Friending
What do you post about?: Uh, fannish things, sometimes work-related stuff, obscure art history tidbits I'm currently obsessed with, sometimes personal/family stuff.
How often do you update?: Uh, about once a week-- sometimes more, sometimes less.
What do you look for in a DW friend?: Mutual interest in each other! I don't mind if you're a lurker, but don't expect too much engagement from me if there's no connection/communication.
What do you like to read about on your friends page?: The things friends want to impart. :)
Do you have any kind of friending policy?: You're welcome to drop a note why you think we could fit! :) I find it often irritating if my journal gets subscribed 'out of nowhere', my un-locked posts are mostly fandom-related things.
Do you have any deal-breakers?: please no terfs, racists, anti-vaxxers
Is there anything others should know before friending?: I'm very much entertained by (well-written) Bible slash! Agnostic, until I'm allowed poke. ;)

Anything else? My fannish writing can be found over at AO3 here. :D

Hello there :)
It's always cool to meet fellow Germans in those friending memes and you sound awesome in general.
I also go by they/them pronouns (genderfluid) and love reading, cooking and travelling.
Board games are cool though sadly I don't really have many people to play them with :(

Want to give it a try?

I'd love to! How very nice to meet you, you seem pretty decent yourself. Don't make me blush, haha! :D

SO TRUE. D: The pandemic sure didn't help with finding strangers to play along, did it.
