Though I have often and for long periods dwelt and hunted in the wilderness, yet I never before so well understood why the people who live in lonely forest regions are prone to believe in elves, wood spirits, and other beings of an unseen world.

I am known in some places as Arethinn. I'm 34, Californian, Pagan, faery/sidhe, nerd, library technician (cataloger). What are little big fae made of? Starlight and glitter... silver lamps of fae-light under hill... the crescent moon and the evening star in the west... sunlit redwood trees and streams... oh, and Severus freakin' Snape. I tend to be sarcastic and introverted and I am not very good at looking like a beautiful, kind, interesting person 'cause, yanno, I am kinda not one. I post a good deal of otherkin-related stuff here, but also reblog photos and fantasy/faerie art, a bit of Harry Potter fanart, and dashes of random. Rah rah Ravenclaw!
