Username: sadisticsparkle

Comics Steve/Tony: 616, Noir, MA:A, weird little universes
Other Fandoms/Ships/Characters: Star Trek Discovery (gen team feels, Book/Michael, Owo/Detmer give me Owo/Detmeeeeeeeeeer), Doctor Who, Saint Seiya (the classics: Camus/Milo, Hyoga/Shun, Aphrodite/Deathmask)
Likes: Pining, identity porn, getting together, fluff, slice-of-life, strong narrative voices, strong stylistic choices, references and meta commentary
Dislikes: Bodily fluids except for blood, rape, incest, cheating, underage, unhappy endings, mismatched Steve/Tony (like. 616!Tony/MCU!Steve)
Non-fandom related requests/anything else?: I'd enjoy recs for the things I like.

I'm very much into gaming: RPGs, tactical games (think XCOM), grand strategy (like CKIII), and management games. Some recent favorites have been I Was a Teenage Exocolonist, Pentiment, and Stray Gods. My all-time favorites are Civilization II and Sims 2.

I like baking with metric measurements! I love teas and cats. To complete the stereotype, I do bullet journaling, collect postcards, and Tarot. And I'm a Swiftie.

My favorite movie is Moulin Rouge because I like garish, over-stylized musicals a whole damn lot. I love the Baroque (Spanish one!) and I don't like the Romantics. I like miniature roses and jasmines.

I love purple to an unhealthy degree. I like vintage maps and 19th Century pulp novels. I enjoy reading about interior decor, startups gone bad, and historical true crime.

Arashi, the Japanese boyband, and the Argentina NT (to my eternal shame lol) are my forever fandoms. So you know, if you want to give me Scaloneta edits, I'm 100% for it.

Happy New Year!

I've recently enjoyed a tea calendar, from the brand Pukka. I have no idea if this brand exists in your part of the world, but here are my favourite blends from them:

Pukka Joy (lemony herbs with a twist of orange, lavender and licorice)

Pukka radiance (aloe vera, dandelion, fennel, licorice, nettle and peppermint)

Pukka lemon, ginger & manuka honey

Pukka winter warmer (ginger, rooibos, orange, cinnamon, anise,...) (excellent winter tea. So tasty and good!!)

I think that all of Pukka's teas are herbal teas, so they're great to decompress after the day is over. I've tried other blends by them, and they're all good. Not super cheap, but worth the price in my opinion. The teas with fennel or licorice in them are especially fresh.

To enjoy with your tea, some dark chocolate is great. Or maybe try this recipe for pain d'épices (french gingerbread)!
https://www.marmiton.org/recettes/recette_pain-d-epices_11087.aspx
the recipe is in french, but google's automatic translation works mostly without issues. A "sachet" of vanilla sugar is approximately 1-2 tea spoons. A sachet of "chemical yeast" (baking powder) corresponds to 12g. The ingredient called "four-spices" is a ready-made mix. I just manually mixed together the spices: Coriander, Cinnamon, Fennel, Clove, Anise, Star anise, Cardamom. I also recommend using brown sugar instead of white sugar for a rounder taste. The gingerbread only gets more tasty the more you let it rest after you've taken it out of the oven, but it's of course completely possible to eat it right after it's out of the oven.
I realize now that things might have been clearer if I'd just written down the recipe myself. oh well.

Cheers!

Oooh , those sounds really tasty. Well, if they don't deliver, I can always wait until I travel to taste them.

The recipe looks great and I think I have almost all the spices, fantastic.

Hi sparkle! Happy stocking day.
While I was visiting Earth-616 I snagged a screenshot for you of the subreddit for fans of Captain America and Iron Man but only as best friends who aren’t romantically or sexually involved or interested in each other. Enjoy! (Bigger pic will be on my tumblr within a day or two.)

I'm glad you like it! Heehee, at first the link about their fights was going to be one titled "the most homoerotic superhero fights" but I couldn't quite justify to myself that that wouldn't get insta-deleted on this server.

Hello, hello! First thing, first, just wanted to tell you that I enjoy chatting with you in discord, and oh my, we had so much fun (!!!!!) during the stony games, looking forward to actually win this time :D
As you said you like interior decor I'm gonna share some of my fave pinterest interior decor pics with you. I think that I like bohemian(ish) style? maybe?! :D

Yeees, last year's was so much fun. Hopefully WE WILL WIN AND CRUSH THE COMPETITIOn next time.

Ooooh, nice interiors, particularly that kitchen. Loving the palettes. And that last kitchen's splashboard is gorgeous. I would say you're quite boho-ish with some country style thrown in, yep.

Hi, sparkle! Happy whatever day this is! You are awesome!

I am trying to think of games I have enjoyed that I have not previously recced you (so I am sorry if I recced this and forgot), but if one of the things you liked about Pentiment was the whole medieval-manuscript aesthetic (I haven't played Pentiment yet, alas) and you like tactics/strategy in your RPGs, you will hopefully enjoy Inkulinati, which is a turn-based tactical/strategy RPG in which all your units are weird-ass animals (many of them with very weird asses, actually) that are taken from medieval manuscripts, so you can defeat enemies with, like, your squadron of rabbits that fart fire. It's fun! And unique!

LOL, well, Pentiment is on our minds, That one looks really fun and I hadn't come across it at all. :O Thanks!

Happy Leap Day!

I don't have anything fandom for you but I've been playing a city builder game called Fabledom on Steam. It's a fairytale city strategy game that has silly things like flying pigs and special tiles on the board like talking trees while you're building a city, managing the population, and fighting or marrying neighboring rulers. I've been having a lot of fun with it.

That looks very charming and fun. Flying pigs!

Happy 2nd of March!

Hi sparkle! I know life has been a lot but I'm still so happy to see you when you pop up around the server!

I consulted my gamer friend and they recommended My Time at Sandrock if you like the Harvest Moon/Stardew Valley style of games. I know you're already a big Fire Emblem fan so I don't feel the need to recommend those, hahah, even though I love them very much :)

For musicals, have you ever watched the Revue Starlight anime? I've been kind of obsessed about it for a bit. It's about high school girls training to enter the Takarazuka world and they fight to be top star in Utena-inspired duels. It's like a coming-of-age story but with revues as the backdrop. The sequel movie is one of my favorite things I've watched in the past few years.

Aw, thank you! I really want to be around more because I miss the server a lot.

Ooooh, nice, it looks relaxing and I need relaxing lol

I had seen it mentioned, but not with that description, I think? That makes it sound a lot more fun. :O
