[gothikmaus]

Challenge #5
Search in your current space, whether brick-and-mortar or digital. Post a picture (a link to a picture will be fine!) or description of something that is or represents:

1. Something your favorite character would like
2. Something that makes you laugh
3. A fandom place you would like to visit
4. A fandom creator (pro or not) you'd like to meet
5. Something you find comforting
6. Something from a favorite TV series or movie from your childhood
7. A piece of clothing you love
8. A book or song with a color in the title
9. Something only someone in your fandom would understand




1. Something your favorite character would like

My favourite character from CSI is Greg Sanders. He's very into music, especially in the first few seasons, so I think he'd like my record player.




2. Something that makes you laugh

I found this little figurine in a gashapon (Japanese vending machine) when I visited Japan in 2019. Out of all the cats doing gymnastics, I got the one sleeping on top of a pommel horse, which suits me so perfectly. I've also just realised I used the same figurine last year, oops. But what can I say, it always makes me smile. :D




3. A fandom place you would like to visit

I always love going back to Berlin and if nothing major comes up, I'll see a Die Ärzte concert there at the end of August. Fingers crossed!




4. A fandom creator (pro or not) you'd like to meet

Martina H and Umulata. Even though I'd probably get all embarrassed and make a fool of myself if I ever got to meet either of them.


5. Something you find comforting

A nice cup of tea with biscuits.




6. Something from a favorite TV series or movie from your childhood

The anime of "Ai shite knight" was a huge success in Italy in the '80s and I loved it. This sticker album (which I almost completed) was one of my most prized possesions. And yes, I still have it.




7. A piece of clothing you love

This pair of faux-leather trousers. I absolutely adore them.




8. A book or song with a color in the title

"Himmelblau", by Die Ärzte

9. Something only someone in your fandom would understand

EVERY

(If you're in the Good Omens fandom, you know. XD)

That's a great list and you certainly can use that kitty all you want. He's cut and looks perfectly content.

Meeting fandom people is both scary and fun. Hopefully, they would be as lovely in person as they seem online and you'd have fun, once you get over the fan-girling! (which my auto-correct turned into fingerling! meep!)

I will join your tea and biscuits and we can chat over a cup!

Thanks for joining in Snowflake today!

[gothikmaus]

Every time I have tea and biscuits, my mood improves drastically. You're more than welcome to join me whenever you want. :)

Oh, I have to agree! I think Greg would love that record player! He'd be very excited to see what vinyls you have :D

[gothikmaus]

I don't have a lot of vinyls, but I do have quite a few CDs. I'm sure he'd play some of those very, very loudly. :D

[scytale]

That cat figurine is wonderful, omg. Thank you for sharing!

[gothikmaus]

I'm glad you like it! I find it very funny. :)

[tsuki_no_bara]

i like that record player! is it portable? (it looks kind of portable.) also i too am a cat flopped across a pommel horse.

[gothikmaus]

It's not really portable, as in, it's not battery-operated, you need to connect it to an electrical socket, but it is quite compact, so it's easy to transport.

And aren't we all just cats flopped across a pommel horse? :D

[obstinatecondolement]

I for one am very glad you re-used your cat figurine, because it was new to me and I snort-laughed at it myself XD

[gothikmaus]

That figurine sure received a lot of love this year! All well-deserved. I mean, who could resist such silliness? XD

[svgurl]

That figurine is adorable! :D

[gothikmaus]

Yeah, it's very cute and always makes me smile. :)
