hey friend! my name is icarus and i use they/ae/he pronouns! i was born in 1997! you can also call me leo, hades, romeo or any other name on my pronoun page :]

i'm a nonbinary bi transmasc half-troll thing witch. i know that's a mouthful, so you can call me that flamboyant bastard over there.

i'm a jack of all trades & a master of none - i easily pick up new skills, but i often have difficulty focusing on a few skills to truly master them, but that's okay, i always have something i can work on and develop!

i have been on the internet since i was seven. i didn't really spend too much time outside of messing around with paint; playing freddie fish, pyjama sam and other cereal box trial games; and some kid sites that ran back in the day. i really value the individuality that comes with coding your own site on hosts like neocities! maybe one day i'll run my personal site off my own sweat and blood, but until then, i'll likely host it using neocities.

i fully believe that it's more important to indulge in your wants, which is why i've put such love and spit into shining this site up to something half-cobbled together from many years of tumblr rp code experience. (which, i'll have linked somewhere eventually in terms of my rp muses)

i often define myself using characters, and i've always been a bit of an ecclectic person that finds that identity grounding in characters. they change over time, but i'm still unfortunately someone who identifies as otherkin. i was hard on the paint with this in the past on tumblr, but since then - it's a quieter part of me.

(this likely is because i'm autistic & adhd as hell. i'm lower support needing, which made it difficult to be a 'problem child' growing up, esp with cis male stereotyping conflicting with what my symptoms manifest as.)

anyways. this is just a page i spend a lil too much time writing and rewriting, and oversharing on. i'll probably look over other about pages and find some things i'd rather have here.
