Greetings!

hello visitor! i go by lapin online, and i am a hobby illustrator-slash-eternally stressed out office worker with socially avoidant tendencies irl.( ⸝⸝´꒳`⸝⸝) despite all the pink and pastel/cutesy themes on my website, i mostly wear black! my style leans toward goth-girly or "adam sandler-core". there is no inbetween LMAO (i really do enjoy some luxury goods though as you can see in my room! i like collecting knick-knacks, whether they are antiques/vintage goods or anime/vg merch.

i am an enjoyer of cute and creepy things as well as nerdy things like animanga, jrpgs, and reading. i tend to dabble here and there in all sorts of creative endeavors but i am truly a jack-of-all-trades and master of none. i tend to be a melancholic type of person but that's just who i am. despite this though, i can be very (loudly) opinionated and am pretty hot-tempered. im a crybaby, internet traveler, a lovestruck fool that has the tendency to listen to the same 5 songs on repeat for days and days. i enjoy talking to my e-friends and digital penpals when im not drawing. (feel free to message me if you'd like to talk!)

i've been getting general questions asked in my art faq ask box, so i've decided to answer them and put them here! ↓↓↓

commonly asked questions

What does lapin mean? it's french for rabbit!

What the heck does beyond the beyond mean in your footer? beyond time! and space! and everything! it's also actually a reference to a 1995 Camelot jrpg on the playstation. it was one of the first games we got on it. i never beat it...

Are you rich? LOL no. i work for a living, and am DINK(WAD). i am also older than like 90% of the neocities population, so i've had plenty of time to buy stuff and save $$.

Are you asian? What kind? yes, half.

Can I message you just to chat? of course! but i reply slowly most of the time due to being busy or just plain forgetting (sorry!)

Can I add you on Steam/PS/etc? sure but i will likely never play with you lol (i mostly play solo rpgs!!)

What are your feelings about social media? could do with, could do without. unlike most of NC, i was actually around during the old web days, so i know that 1.) its NEVER coming back 2.) you guys romanticize the hell out of it, it was the wild west.

things I like

tea, coffee, nail art, tattoos, seafood, thrifting, horticulture, collecting cute things, cherubs/angels, and horror movies. sanrio (kuromi has been my fave since 2005). cows (the current website mascot is my cow kemonomimi oc! :3), cowprint, rabbits! collecting cross jewelry and vivienne westwood earrings. alt fashion, lazy fashion. BBS/imageboards, old school forums, designing OCs and attempting to write.

random

• lol my English is often bad so i have to proofread everything like 47 times. the thesaurus is my best friend ♥

likeness

characters i relate to or find myself similar to. you can get a glimpse of what kind of person i am beyond the text and cute pixels of this website!

A shut-in gloomy girlrotter fascinated with the macabre. Uncompromising about her likes and dislikes. Self-concious despite her obstinate personality.	Headstrong, tempermental yet standoffish, and has a low opinion of men. Very passionate about stuff she cares about. Disciplined and hardworking.
Sunako Nakahara The Wallflower	Hino Rei Prety Guardian Sailor Moon
Idealistic yet realistic. Masks her anger behind smiles. Driven and can be a bit cruel towards those she dislikes/hates. Physically weak.	Brash, impulsive and always true to herself. She takes pride in being pretty and strong. A little bit of a clown. She's a caring person underneath her arrogance.
Kocho Shinobu Kimetsu no Yaiba	Kugisaki Nobara Jujutsu Kaisen
