Simona, she/her, too old for this website, too young to stop fixating on fictional characters. I love metal and progressive music. Also like Battlestar Galactica, Jaime x Brienne, Black Sails and I don't know what's a Star War since TLJ. At the moment living for Raja Gemini. Terfs do not follow & do not interact. Thanks!
