RULES.

hey there! i’m zanza, i’m 28 years old, autistic + otherwise disabled. during fall and spring i’m a full time college student, but during the summer and slower periods with school i’ll be more active.the most important rule is that I’m here for myself. i come first. we're here for fun!

this blog is 18+ only for my own comfort, i would prefer not to be following minors or have minors following me. it’s an absolute no go if you don’t have your age listed clearly somewhere on your blog.no godmodding, no rule!63 or otherwise transphobic muses, no disability erasure, no erasure of sexuality, etc. will be tolerated on this blog.i promise i'm really far more relaxed than these rules make me seem, i've just been here a really long time and have a low tolerance for bullshit.

this blog is incredibly selective and private, meaning i will only interact with mutuals, and i’ll be very picky about who i follow. don’t take it personally if i don’t follow you, i just need to keep things fairly chill, and i only follow those i see myself writing with. i also won’t follow if you don’t cut your posts, consistently post things that are completely irrelevant to your blog, don’t have a rules page, and/or don’t tag your posts!i write in third-person, present tense. i typically don’t give a shit what formatting you use, i tend to just stick to what i do — but the only thing i can’t handle no matter what is text that’s heavy on ‘fancy fonts’, it’s too difficult for me to read and comprehend at the same time and is far too difficult to translate / format into something that’s easier for me to read.i unapologetically latch onto threads, memes, and plots with people who actively talk to me and who i’m closer with and generally know for a fact that i’m not annoying --- if this is something you’re gonna be annoyed by in any form, you’re probably better off not following. i try to be friends with as many people as possible, and i’m easy to talk to, but mutual excitement over things is one of the keys to helping me write and i’m here to have fun anyway so i’m not gonna be sorry for doing what’s fun and makes me happy!!

i have autistm, adhd, i'm disabled, and a full-time college student. i also run multiple blogs. activity can be slow, and i do tend to hyperfocus on threads and plots so some people may get priority with responses depending on how close we are and how invested i am in the dynamics being explored. below are a list of rules that i’d really appreciate if you’d follow! i can tell when they’re not being read and it tends to be a real problem.i get overwhelmed super easily, and when i get overwhelmed, i tend to block out the things that i’m doing. because of this i’ll often forget that i’m IMing people i don’t talk to often, be it for plotting or anything else. please don’t take it personally, it’s never anything to do with you. feel free to send me gentle reminders!! (also note that i tend to get anxious when i haven’t talked to a person much, and might just stop talking due to this. it isn’t personal, i just feel like there are expectations for me to respond to messages a certain way sometimes, and this stresses me out).

if you’re someone who finds pleasure in finding things problematic / can’t enjoy anything without dissecting it to find problems / bashes people for enjoying the things you find problematic, or for watching shows that you don’t watch ( or have stopped watching ), or are generally negative in any other way, please don’t follow me. i can’t deal with that sort of thing, and i’ve reached a point in my life where i can’t be bothered to try. please tag your hate, if you insist on posting it. venting? i understand! frustration? get that too!! but general unbridled hate on a regular basis is hard for me to deal with.

NOTE: this does not apply to things that are genuinely problematic.

( ...she.. ./. ..they... )

established 2016

inbox is for memes / writing related things (you can share lil compliments, just not random attempts to start a conversation).if you want to plot or chat or whatever else you might wanna talk to me about? please use IMs or discord!this blog is typically PLOTTING AND DYNAMIC BASED. keep in mind, though, that i do expect plotting to be a cooperative effort, i’m not gonna do all the work.

lorelai is BISEXUAL and i default to shipping her with luke, but i'm 100% open to other ships!i will really really selectively writing smut, if you’re someone i’m comfortable with i’m open to discussing related headcanons and actually writing things (though the actual writing has a 99% chance of being written over discord)!

other nsfw themes may be present on this blog, there will be, at times, triggering content on this blog. a lot of the fandoms i’m part of have some very dark aspects, and while there are some things i won’t go near (openly and explicitly written abuse, rape, pedophilia, incest, to name a few), i’m not against the idea of writing with ‘villain’ characters. if the fact that i’m gonna associate with people who write darker characters who might do awful things isn’t your thing? that’s okay! no need to follow! if you still do want to follow, i’ll be implementing a tag for all threads that i feel may contain less common or general triggers which will be the ‘POTENTIAL TRIGGER //’ tag, and it’s just gonna show up on top of anything i already know i need to tag, just to keep people as comfortable as possible!triggers may be present on this blog, and i’m be more than happy to tag anything i’m asked to! ( triggers will be tagged ‘trigger //’ or 'content cw' )

please tag SPIDERS, CLOWNS, AND EXCESSIVE GORE, thank you!!please tag all flashing gifs as i’m incredibly photosensitive when it comes to flashing lights (even something like lightning) and migraines are no fun. i track ‘zanza don’t look //’ and ‘flashing gif //’

STRANGER THINGS.

arcs: season one, season two, season three, season four.

the gilmore family are among the more elite in hawkins, but that doesn’t mean their daughter’s any less bored living in such a small town. she doesn’t care for the high-class life, choosing rather to spend the majority of her time at the arcade, or listening to the latest music. rebelling is her forte, and lorelai can often be found sneaking out at night, getting into any trouble she can to make her life more interesting. of course, there are whispers of strange things happening around town, and she’s determined to learn more.

TEEN AU.

an alternate universe.

luke and lorelai meet soon after lorelai moves to stars hollow, and fall for each other almost immediately. what happens next? who knows!

MISS INDEPENDENT.

status: main verse.

early 1984, she’s not even 16 yet (though her birthday and her first ‘coming out’ party are approaching rapidly — and she’s taken the opportunity to make as many lesbian jokes as possible, thank you), but things are changing quickly. it doesn’t take long to realize she’s pregnant once her jeans start feeling a little tighter, and the constant sick feeling sets in whenever she’s in a room with a woman wearing too much perfume (she’ll insist that’s always been the case, particularly with her mother’s favored chanel number five, but…. never to this degree).she begins to plan the moment she finally convinces herself to look at the test she’d bought only moments prior at a drugstore several miles from hartford (she can’t take it at home, or anywhere nearby — people talk in hartford, and she knows there are those in her mother’s employ who go through the garbage, so she can’t risk it). she can’t stick around. her parents barely tolerate her as it is, and christopher’s parents rarely try to mask their blatant distaste. she’s different. she always has been, and she knows it. maybe she’d dreamed of going to yale once, but those dreams had faded a long time ago. it’s not what she wants. she’s smart, sure, she could get in. even without her family’s name backing her up, she could get in. but now she wants to even less than she had before. it’s like a weight is lifted from her shoulders the moment the decision’s made.she slips away in the evening, a week later, while her parents are out. with two suitcases packed with her favorite clothes, and a backpack filled with the allowances she’s saved up for years, she’s ready for independence. she finds it in a little town: stars hollow. she finds a job, a home, a woman who treats her more like a daughter than her parents ever did. several months later, she gives birth to a daughter and she knows she’d made the right choice. her life is full, her heart is full, and while things are hard, lorelai never once looks back.

FASHION DESIGNER.

an alternate universe.

lorelai moves to new york instead of stars hollow and slowly finds herself wrapped up in the fashion world where she eventually becomes a fairly popular and famous designer.

COLLEGE.

MAJOR: business.

lorelai goes to yale where she raises rory with the help of her roommates ..addison montgomery. ..&.. .mellie eaves.
