Helloooooo lads, ladies,

Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

Helloooooo lads, ladies,

Helloooooo lads, ladies, and all other lizards!

Not to be creepy or anything, but I’ve been stalking this website for a month or so now without posting anything, watching, waiting, biding my time, until I found the perfect moment to—

—make my introduction post! :D

So, hi! I’m Lemondrop, she/her. I hope there isn’t already a Lemondrop on here. That would be pretty awkward, don’t you think? 

Anyway. I won’t give my exact age, but I’m a teenager living in the Northeastern US. I’m not a huge writer or artist or anything (though I’d love to get better at that!), but I love to read, especially fantasy. My favorite book series are Harry Potter and Nevermoor. I also love sports! I play softball, tennis, do gymnastics, and snowboard. I think that’s just about it—

HEY WHAT ABOUT US? I’M Y—

Oh, hush, you. I have some AEs, as you can see...but I’ll introduce them in another post. Not everything is about you guys, you know...

It isn’t? *gasp*

No, it really isn’t. Anyway, that’s me! I can’t wait to get to know you guys. You seem like a pretty cool bunch. Feel free to ask me anything (that isn’t too personal...)! 

SEE YUH! :D

*~Lemondrop~*

Hi WildWolf! It's nice to meet you! I love your name, too! It feels very woodsy :) 

Yep! I posted all my AEs elsewhere, and I'm guessing you saw that because you posted on it, but I'll just list them here :D

Hi! It's so nice to meet you! I love your name - it's so original.

Looking forward to reading you around :)

Hi, Poinsettia! Thanks, I like your name too! It's very pretty and floral :D

I don't listen to a ton of music, but I guess I like pop! Some of my favorite artists are Olivia Rodrigo, Tessa Violet, MARINA, and Melanie Martinez. What about you?

Read you around!

Thanks! I mainly like folk music, Middle Eastern & Celtic & Hispanic traditional music, Italian and Turkish pop, and country (both old and new). Some of my favorite songs ever are "Kerry County Fair" by Clodagh Lawlor, "Buy Dirt" by Jordan Davis, and "Behet Ghol Midam" by Mohsen Yeganeh, and some of my favorite artists in general are Peter, Paul & Mary; Lisa McHugh; and Alison Krauss, but tbh I've got too many to list :)

Anyway, read you around!

Hola! Como estas?

(That means "Hi! How are you?" in Spanish).

I'm Thunder, formerly Emekittycon Kitten! You can call me "Em", though; I prefer to be called that IRL, too.

Hiiii! I'm Hawkstar, she/her! It's a pleasure to meet you, and welcome to the CB!

Fantasy is my favorite too! Nevermoor is SUPER good, and HP is, well, HP!! Have you ever read Fablehaven, Sky Raiders, or Beyonders by Brandon Mull? They are all super good fantasy adventure series and I love em'! And what sort of music do you like?

Well, see you around! If you want to chat with me at all, just let me know! I'd be happy to :)

Hey, Hawkstar! Nice to meet you! It's so cool we have similar tastes in books! I haven't read Fablehaven, Sky Raiders, or Beyonders, but I'll check them out. Thanks for the recommendations! And I like pop music, like MARINA, Tessa Violet, Melanie Martinez, and Olivia Rodrigo! What about you?

Read you around! :D
