welcome to my slumbering weald!

a site brought to you and lovingly crafted by me, sonia/ryn wick!

as you could probably guess this site is named after the slumbering weald, a location from pokemon that personally means a lot to me! it's hard to explain but despite the fact i was 16 when i played sword and shield for the first time, even in that same playthrough the location and especially the music have always invoked a sense of nostalgia within me, and in a way the location feels like home. and, more importantly: this location introduced by favourite 2 characters, sordward and shielbert, aka seesaw duo, and subsequently is also the location those two and sonia meet in! i'm a huge fan of either seesaw x sonia ship (damselshipping/rewriteshipping/sordsoni + inaccuracyshipping/shielsoni), though i tend to lean towards sordsoni, so warning for...a lot of that on my site. particularly in the art section when it's done.

as you can probably tell from the name of the site and general themeing and my prior yapping, i absolutely ADORE pokemon sword and shield. the pokemon franchise as a whole has been my special interest since i was 4 years old, and at this point i'm fairly sure the characters of sordward and shielbert, and just swsh as a whole are special interests of their own. i truly know everything there is to know about those two characters. besides that, i'm also really really interested in translation, the localization processes and various different language differences. i'm learning japanese and have played sword and shield in english, japanese + french, because i wanted to see the differences even if i had to rely a bit more heavily on machine translators at time.

as for more casual interests, i like the idolm@ster (mainly mirishita+ogmas), puyo puyo, sonic, jjba, undertale+deltarune, the fairly oddparents: a new wish, mob psycho 100 etc. etc. there's a lot. i also like various music stuff + particularly enjoy the music of the kpop groups exo + nct(mainly 127+wish)
