Hi!
How is everybody?

I'm 22 and Danish. It seems there's a serious lack of Danish people here...

Alright, so I found aRTD via dA, back when it was only about halfway done, and I've been reading ever since. I never bothered with the comments section, or the forum though.

But! Recently I was persuaded into joining. I felt the need to wait till my exams were done first, and now that they are (as of yesterday), here I am!

A bit about me:
I'm a native Dane, I speak English (obviously), and I'm decent in French(one can always improve!).
I study Engineering in Biotechnology.
I love reading, drawing, painting, and writing, whenever I have the time, and conscience to procrastinate my homework (I'm very good at this).

I hope to get to know all of you soon!
Danish, eh? Kamelåså rødgrød med fløde [potato noises]!

Seriously though, welcome. Yes, for some strange reason there aren't many Danes on here.

Hello! Welcome! Like Feartheviolas, I also blame you for my obsession (indirectly, of course. Not that I'm complaining  ;)) We have threads for drawing and threads for writing, as well as threads for just about everything else. I'm sure you'll have fun here!!
:usa: Yes.
:spain: Out of practice.

She's a very good drawer and she's been helping me try to pronounce danish (which I am very bad at).
How good a drawer is she? Does she have compartments in which to keep things?  ;)
Also, welcome to the forum, Lainer! I'm new too, I joined the forum yesterday.

AH ... hello ;u; I'm mostly new
I posted this in a separate topic but realized this is here so I'm putting it here!

*gathers self in rehab circle* I started reading SSSS 2 months ago, the entire thing in one sitting up til 2am even though I had 8am class the next morning (that's real dedication because I love my sleep) and ever since then it's been spiraling down to the point I check the site at least once an hour even if the last update was a few minutes before....

And.................... I LOVE SIGRUN!
I'm really excited to get more active here to get my double daily dose of ssss yes.

someday I'll make fanart because I love this story too much.
Someday I'll be able to make fanart worthy of how much I love these characters C:[deviantart] [tumblr]

Hello there everyone!

I'm Soikia - though I'm completely fine with being called Soi  :)
I found SSSS two days ago because of me clicking random comics and I ended up on SSSS. I....I already caught up with it. The joy's of being on summer vacation am I right?

Some fun facts about me are that I was born and raised in Germany with my mom and grandma for about four years, until my dad came back from the Netherlands because of work and then we moved to the US ovo;;
I also own a few reptiles and help my aunt at her vet clinic to gather community service hours so I can graduate in a few years.

Nice to meet everyone!

Welcome, Soikia!  Piney shows up periodically to shower newcomers with squirrel cookies (why squirrels?  Long story).  If you're a friend of reptiles, you might be quite popular in the Silent World; for all we know, lizards and other Immune-by-nature reptiles may be chic pets by Y90, now that most mammal populations have been decimated by the Rash.

(Also, are you familiar with "friend to every reptile" cartoonist Der-Shing Helmer?  She authors two comics that are the only rivals to SSSS for my heart:  Mare Internum and The Meek.)

Hi Soi! Nice to meet you too! Have some squirrel cookies - *points above*
(...And you say you own reptiles? That's super cool; do you have any snakes? Snakes are some of my favorite animals :) )

If reptiles are chic pets by Y90, I can only imagine some elderly person walking around their house with the lizard trailing right behind. They may not be as warm as a fluffy cat, but they certainly are a great conversation starter!
& No I haven't heard of those comics! I'll have to look into them!

I sadly don't own any snakes :( Mom forbids it since she's convinced it'll escape and attack our dog or something - but I have a bearded dragon named Laurel and am currently waiting for a Northern Blue Tongue Skink named Blep to make the two hour journey to my house! Hopefully when I move out I'll be able to get a snake though  ;D

It's named Blep??  *casually mentions Fimbulvarg's blep-troll*
(the blep-troll is kind of a thing here, particularly in the self-insert thread)

....The blep-troll is absolutely amazing and I'm in love with it. I'm even happier that I've decided on that name

indui Heyy, welcome! :D Good to see more Sigrun fans, even if I'm currently struggling because... I can't decide who my favourite is. Hngafh.
(I also checked out your dA and Tumblr and??? oh my god?? your art is so great. DRAGONS. MONSTERS. YES)

Soikia I LOVE YOUR AVATAR :0 I'm so pumped about The Last Guardian, except I don't have a PS4 and it's going to be PS4 exclusive which makes me sad.
Oh, reptiles! I've wanted a gecko for a while but reptiles are illegal in Norway /wipes tear

Mélusine thank you!

North Same! I've been really hyped about it and I'm so thankful that I made the right choice when deciding between the xboxone and the PS4 haha
Geckos are cute little buggers, I fostered a few of them when my friend was moving - I'm pretty sure geckos just have permanent smiles on their lil faces
