Hello everyone! Name's Deacog, you can just call me Cog.
Even though I'm an adult, I still love watching anime and reading manga. It's pretty much all I do all day, every day. At least when I'm not working. However, I'm not completely anti-social (yet) because I do have one really close friend, but she, unfortunately, lives in a different city right now, so I don't really get to see her as often as I want.
I have accounts on different fanfiction websites (Quotev, ArchiveOfOurOwn, and of course, here) all with the same username, so if you want, you can add me on all of them (wink wink nudge nudge). It might actually be a good idea to at least check out my profile on Quotev because I post short stories on there that I write for my Creative Writing class, so you might find something you like.

My favorite anime is Natsume Yuujinchou. It's so relaxing to watch and calms me right down, plus it's adorable. I mean, how the heck can you look at Nyanko-sensei and not fall in love. Though, I find that not many people have seen it, which makes me sad.

I also love Kanojo to kanojo no neko: everything flows. I literally cry every single time I watch it.

Some cool bands I listen to are Poets of the Fall, Of Monsters and Men, Avicii, and Phillip Phillips.

10 myths about introverts:

Myth #1 : Introverts don’t like to talk.
This is not true. Introverts just don’t talk unless they have something to say. They hate small talk. Get an introvert talking about something they are interested in, and they won’t shut up for days.

Myth #2 : Introverts are shy.
Shyness has nothing to do with being an Introvert. Introverts are not necessarily afraid of people. What they need is a reason to interact. They don’t interact for the sake of interacting. If you want to talk to an Introvert, just start talking. Don’t worry about being polite.

Myth #3 : Introverts are rude.
Introverts often don’t see a reason for beating around the bush with social pleasantries. They want everyone to just be real and honest. Unfortunately, this is not acceptable in most settings, so Introverts can feel a lot of pressure to fit in, which they find exhausting.

Myth #4 : Introverts don’t like people.
On the contrary, Introverts intensely value the few friends they have. They can count their close friends on one hand. If you are lucky enough for an introvert to consider you a friend, you probably have a loyal ally for life. Once you have earned their respect as being a person of substance, you’re in.

Myth #5 : Introverts don’t like to go out in public.
Nonsense. Introverts just don’t like to go out in public FOR AS LONG. They also like to avoid the complications that are involved in public activities. They take in data and experiences very quickly, and as a result, don’t need to be there for long to “get it.” They’re ready to go home, recharge, and process it all. In fact, recharging is absolutely crucial for Introverts.

Myth #6 : Introverts always want to be alone.
Introverts are perfectly comfortable with their own thoughts. They think a lot. They daydream. They like to have problems to work on, puzzles to solve. But they can also get incredibly lonely if they don’t have anyone to share their discoveries with. They crave an authentic and sincere connection with ONE PERSON at a time.

Myth #7 : Introverts are weird.
Introverts are often individualists. They don’t follow the crowd. They’d prefer to be valued for their novel ways of living. They think for themselves and because of that, they often challenge the norm. They don’t make most decisions based on what is popular or trendy.

Myth #8 : Introverts are aloof nerds.
Introverts are people who primarily look inward, paying close attention to their thoughts and emotions. It’s not that they are incapable of paying attention to what is going on around them, it’s just that their inner world is much more stimulating and rewarding to them.

Myth #9 : Introverts don’t know how to relax and have fun.
Introverts typically relax at home or in nature, not in busy public places. Introverts are not thrill seekers and adrenaline junkies. If there is too much talking and noise going on, they shut down. Their brains are too sensitive to the neurotransmitter called Dopamine. Introverts and Extroverts have different dominant neuro-pathways. Just look it up.

Myth #10 : Introverts can fix themselves and become Extroverts.
A world without Introverts would be a world with few scientists, musicians, artists, poets, filmmakers, doctors, mathematicians, writers, and philosophers. That being said, there are still plenty of techniques an Extrovert can learn in order to interact with Introverts. (Yes, I reversed these two terms on purpose to show you how biased our society is.) Introverts cannot “fix themselves” and deserve respect for their natural temperament and contributions to the human race. In fact, one study (Silverman, 1986) showed that the percentage of Introverts increases with IQ.

End of the World

The sound of shattered glass,

Drowned out the once cheerful song.

There were no more tea parties,

Or make believe.

There is only silence

As she watched all her friends get packed away into tiny boxes.

It’s better this way, they tell her.

Better for whom, she wonders.

This is the day her world ends.

Wonderland in Alice

Down, down, down she goes.

Down past the rabbit, the clock, the vial.

Down until the grey turns into silver.

Down until her mind becomes the world,

And the world becomes the hole.
