ME.

I'm somewhat of a loner online, so I always suck at what to say in intros :p. I go by Chiya, which is a nickname based on my irl name. I've gone by a lot of other names online though, including Kohinoor (n attempt at fitting in with other nb folks and having a 'gender neutral name' it didnt rlly stick tho), which is why some older usernames refer to Ko.

I'm genderfluid, but always nonbinary, so I use both labels just based on my mood. I use any/all pronouns and typically lean towards a lot of masculine terms, although my presentation is more effeminate. I spent a lot of time angsting over gender and shit before realising that it literally did not matter and I could do whatever, so that's fun. Some people (particularly cis people, for whatever reason) have told me I should 'try find myself'. It's silly to assume someone coming to terms with a lack of label needs to 'find themselves' though.

ALSO. any/all pronouns INCLUDES and STANS neos or it/its. I use any/all pronouns bc I don't fully id with any pronouns and am fine with all.

I'm also bisexual, but I think that was obvious. I'm unsure if I _prefer_ femininity in a partner or if I'm biased. I don't think it matters bc whoever I like I'll still be gay.

I got into writing at ~10 or so? I originally started out writing on Wattpad and only did it because it's what everyone else on Wattpad did. At some point some very kind commenter told me (on a fic that im not particularly proud of) that they'd gotten so lost in reading what i'd written that they'd forgotten to sleep. The comment was what made me get way more into writing, and it's also why I write things both for _me_ the writer, to enjoy, but also to entertain any readers who might stumble across it ^^

And finally, this is my tumblr . It's my main socmed for fandom/creative shit outside of ao3.
