I'm not expecting romance at all, what I'm looking for is just friends! Or maybe y'all can point me to a place for queer artists? I miss having an active creative community around me. I'm going stir crazy just staying in my area, lol. I'm also ENM/poly and partnered, so like I know it's not for everyone. I do get along better with bi women, so just letting you all know.

I prefer solo/one-on-one it's a lot easier for me to manage.

I can't exactly introduce myself as "hey there I'm Esac90 and I'm a [redacted] artist!". I have other hobbies that skirt around that kind of stuff so... it's very hard being around people that either won't assume things of me, or are trying to befriend me with an ulterior motive. I LOVE learning random things, currently teaching myself piano and re-learning Japanese from my college days. On the art front, I love making original characters and writing. I was an avid roleplayer when I was younger (lots of action and romance, lol) and I still do that kind of stuff, but sparingly. I love writing and designing stuff.

I just want to find more female queer friends and art friends (I can't drive, which is unfortunate since I'm around the DTLA area lol). If I find romance that's a plus honestly, lol. Also like, I'm not adverse to finding friends that like kissing and stuff that goes beyond it. I'm basically the kind of person who is just here for whatever, so long as it's fun and safe.

Local or online friendships are fine with me!! I love antique shopping, coffee friend-dates, eating pizza and drinking hard cider. I love art museums since my major right now is studio art and art history. I value honesty, so please be upfront with me if I say something that offends you, I can't read your mind.

I LOVED RINGS OF POWER AND THAT'S ALL I AM THINKING ABOUT. I was a big fan of the series 'His Dark Materials' on HBO. I'm a big anime and manga fan too, people frown on it a lot but I love Berserk and I don't think I ever recovered about Miura passing away, his death hit me the hardest because as an artist, and an amateur storyteller, it hurt to see all of his work seemingly end. His studio and his best friend will continue the story, based on what the friend remembers from the main story beats that him and Miura discussed; it won't be his story but I'm happy to see it. I just want to see Guts and Casca to live happily cries. SORRY! I love that series a lot.
Another manga I'd recommend is 'Witch Hat Atelier', it's a young girl named Coco who discovers the use of magic and the dangers that come with it. Kamome Shirahama is the artist and writer and her work is influenced by western influences in magic and art nouveau! She did a small manga series called 'Eniale & Dewiela' about a female angel and demon who love fashion. It's cute and funny, definitely recommend it.

ANYWAYS, look I could recommend anime and manga all day, if you're looking for a series just ask!

Anyways I've talked to much haha. This is ME
Physically I'm 5'3 and like to dress masc some of the time. I love experimenting with makeup, and am a sucker for bold colors.

Also if you love monster/alien men please talk to me, lolol. I LOVED Mass Effect and I always end up romancing Garrus no matter what. I'm a sucker for like werewolves and size diff in romance/writing scenarios.

If you want to spam me with cat pics, or funny memes, or want funny tiktoks sent your way, just beep me, lol. Honestly I'm just looking for friends with the same kind of mindset and a level of maturity. I'm a little out there with my brain, so I'm sorry in advance. Also please not I don't use the CHAT function.

Thank you for reading my long paragraphs!! <3
