It's been a little bit since I've done any updates here. My excuse is that I've been pretty busy playing catch up with work and with life since the move. It's only been 3 or so months though, I've got plenty of time for things to carry on longer -hah.

But for now, meme! Because I was tagged by evphaedrielle :heart:

Name: Nezumi
Age: 41 as of Friday 8D
Meaning behind your username: Well normally I use Nezumitoo as my handle, and did here too once... until I rage quit one fine day. The next fine day (which may or may not have been a few months worth of fine days), I decided I was over my little tantrum of 'rage against the machine' and came back... only to have completely forgotten my password and email used for said password recovery. So I created this account, using my secondary used user name since my first used user name was being used by some jerk already (i.e. me). As for it -well, Nezumi is my chosen name, of which was chosen for my namesake Sailor Iron Mouse (or Chuuko Nezumi). Too for the first username is well because, when I started using Nezumi as my handle I figured a lot of other peeps would as well, so I'm Nezumi too. This one is because chuu sounds like too, it's also the sound a mouse makes, and is also Iron Mouse's last name. Hence = Nezumitoo and or Nezumi-chuu.
Favorite music: my favorite genres range a bit, but mostly it's classical or classical opera, rock opera, 80's awesome, kpop, jpop, etc. My favorite music honestly depends on the mood I'm in at the time. At this particular point in time, my favorites have been Mozart's everything, the Klingon theme from the first Star Trek movie (Star Trek the Motion Picture that is), the extended orgy scene music from the original Conan the Barbarian movie and that silly 'Back in Time' song Pitbull did for the 3rd Men in Black movie. Or at least, these have been the songs I've been listening to over and over again while I'm working out.
Favorite movie: Hrm, hmmm. I have a lot of favorite movies actually. My current repeat watchers has been the Hobbit movies (mainly the first two, but I watch them all in progression when I'm working), all the Harry Potter movies, even the 3rd one, the original star Trek movies save perhaps the first one and the Final Frontier (which I still watch despite how horrible it truly was), the Narnia films, the Pirates of the Caribbean films (because Barbossa = my love<3), all the Resident Evil films save the 4th one, Rise of the Guardians, The 13th Warrior so on and so forth. I could go on forever with these because as said, I like me some movies. My classic favorites will always be Labyrinth, Legend, the original Tron, Logan's Run and more.
Favorite TV show: Steven Universe is at this moment, my number one all time favorite televee show. Did anyone watch the recent Steven Bomb? How frikkin awesome was it? (Steven Bomb #3 is coming in July. So. Excited. Omglob o_o!). Gravity Falls is another (cliff hanger noooooo), Adventure Time, Sherlock, Property Brothers and Hoarders. There are more, but those are the mains.
Hobbies/interests: Vintage toy collecting (mainly My Little Pony, but so many more), toy collecting in general, art, laughable writing, RP, reading, sewing, movie prop collecting, game playing when time allows it, collecting out of print fairy tale books, Mister's couch and groomer.
Random fact about yourself: I am stronger than you. I am a conversation. I am made o-o-o-o-of Lo-o-o-o-ve.

10Q BJD MEME


1. How long have you been in the hobby?
First doll came home in 2003 but I was pining a couple of years prior.

2. How many dolls do you have at home?

ohh, lesse *counts on fingers* uh 24 if I finger counted correctly. I may be wrong, because I have not 24 fingers in total so just refer to the list below.

3. What are their names and sculpts?

Megumi - Volks New Makeup Megu
Jun - Luts Delf Type 1 WS Chiwoo
Jenova - Volks FCS BW oldF29 on a Dollstown15 body (with his original Volks hands, modded)
Fuan - Luts Delf Type 1 WS El

Tamesis - Soom MD Breccia head with fantasy Amber body (lower half) and one of the newer upper normal bust bodies (forgot which one, but I went in on a split for it and it has wing plugs on her shoulderblades so I'm pretty sure it was another MD or sorts) + Cuprit hands, normal.

Sassy's Shadow - Soom MD Bygg (human head, fantasy body)

Sentry - Unoa Lusis (both default and modded Akubi faceplates) on an Ariadoll 15yrs body
Roin - Souldoll Hewer head on a Luts Delf Type 1 WS body
Nexus - Soom MD The Crow (fantasy head on human body)


4. Which doll have you had the longest? How long has it been?
Megumi, she came home Valentine's Day 2003. It's been 12 some years.

5. Which doll is your favorite?
They are all my favs, honestly. I like them all for their own reasons and I can't look at any of them and think -this one is better than that one- if I could, I prolly wouldn't have as many ^^;

6. Are you waiting on any dolls now? If yes, which one(s)?
Why yes, yes I am actually ->

Glot Blossom of Earth (on layaway) <-got this mainly for Rune's body, but if I like the head when it comes in, he may be turned into a Storybook World character as well.
Cerisedolls Ellana (Also on layaway, my grosh!) <-my chibi's major Bday gifty to me. She's the purple grey version and she's going to be a grown version of the Shadow creature Thial ran across during his travels.
Dollzone Big Dipper (8D) -this little guy is going to be from Rune's world, perhaps a sibling, or a pet - I dunno yet.

7. What is your grail doll?

I don't think I've ever quite understood the term 'grail doll' because all the dolls I've wanted, I've eventually gotten. All the dolls I want right now, I have either incoming or on layaway. I mean there are dolls I'd prolly like to get at some point - like an actual Unoa body for Sentry, or a body for chibi!Fanuel, or a couple of artist dolls and the like but I can't really consider them grails because a grail to me is unattainable -something that isn't so much a thing with me. If it takes me years to save, or years to attain, I'll eventually get them. That's what this hobby is to me, a game of saving, sacrificing and patience. Because of it, I don't so much consider any doll I want or might want in the future unattainable -or 'grail' *shrugs*

8. Did you learn to do something new because of this hobby? (e.g. photography, painting, sewing)
I've always been sewing, always been writing (or summarizing), creating worlds, storylines, crafting, drawing, etc - I think maybe the only thing I've learned specifically for the hobby would be the actual customizing of the dolls themselves, and photography - since I had no interest in either before I began. Oh and leatherwork I guess, since before the dolls I only ever worked in fabrics alone.

9. Have you made any friends you might otherwise not have because of this hobby?
I have, I've also lost a lot of them as well over the years. But whether attained or lost, or maintained (because I've also had quite a few that have stuck around for as many years as those who haven't<3) I prolly would never have met any of them if it weren't for the hobby and I'm very grateful for it because of that. I'll never regret the friendships I've made through this doll beast community, good or bad, because I've made some dear ones through it that I'll treasure until the end of my days /sappy hearts have been inserted here.

10. What are your doll plans for this coming year?

Finishing all the many billions of things I've been meaning to finish for the last... since the beginning of time. Or the last four years anyway. I want to complete the dolls that are incomplete, get all my crews' wardrobes up to date, finish mods I've been meaning to finish, get correct eyes and wigs and update old aesthetics and the like. It's a hobby of forever WIPs and patience, but this year's the year for me to get the bulk of my to-do lists done. I swears it @_@ /m/

Tagging all the peeps who I speak to semi-regularly (you know who you are) which, soz for not naming individually, but it's almost Mister's evening walk time and she's currently making it near impossible to type all this out with her paw swipes and face licks xD

Also those whom I don't speak to on a reg basis, because why not.

Also also, thank you very much for the birthday wishes, all three or so of you who gave them. It was very much appreciated ^_^<33

So my chibi (:iconacid-flier:) is finally taking some decently priced animation commissions. For all the info go -> HERE

Still a little under priced in my opinion, considering the work and time she puts into them (watching her go through the process is something else, let me tell you) -she has very limited slots right now, so if you are looking for a character of yours to be animated, go quick, once those slots are filled, it’ll be a while before she opens up more ^_^

Who was your first doll? Do you still own him, her, or it?
Megumi, my Volks SD10 New Makeup Megu and yesh, as of Valentine's Day I've had her for 11 years.

 Which doll do you hope or plan to buy next?
Hrmm, I'm hoping to find Nexus next, but I suppose before I can buy him I'll need to pin down exactly what mold I want for him. Then wait for Soom to do one of their MD events so I can both get him in gray skin and have his hoofed feeters. Not sure I'll have the cash though when the time comes though so we'll see. My backup plan is to get Chibi!Fanuel, because at the moment he's just a faceplate and I'd like to have him as a whole. Other than those two, I have no plans for more full dolls... but plans can go horribly wrong in this hobby, so we'll see how it all pans out in the end. 

 Quick! You've instantly got $800 and must choose a doll to spend it on right now or it's gone forever! Who do you pick?
Roin and Rune, because they both need proper bodies. Roin would get his FL 65cm bod and Rune would get his Soom cloven hoof bod.

Quick! You've instantly got enough money for any one and must choose a doll to spend it on right now or it's gone forever, but this time you have to buy the doll for someone else! Who gets the dolly, and what do you get them?
I'd hand it over to evphaedrielle since I know she has at least one boy who needs a bod of their own [and more than one who need all of the clothings xD]

Are you currently waiting on any dolls, heads, or bodies?
Waiting on Tam's upper torso parts, after two some years I finally found a reasonably priced split for just her boobs parts and arms so whenever Soom decides to ship, my amazon will finally be complete.

Do any of your dolls seem to like you to the point that they are infatuated with you?
A little too cray for even me, that is.

Do any of your dolls seem to dislike or even hate you?
Again, cray going on, much cray.

How many characters do you have in your story (if there is a story)?
Every single Doll I own is an avatar for a character in one of my stories. My first story, which I created 10 years ago as of christmas, is Angel Hunt -includes Megumi [Volks Megu], Jun [Chiwoo], Jenova [Volks old F29/Dollstown hybrid], Fuan [El], Fanuel [El], Hesue [MNF Shiwoo], Saiyuri [Miyu], Lan [LuWen].

Then there's ye old defunct co-created world of Ish'talla, which includes Bal'thial [Amber], Za'apphei [R.Heliot], Ati'yya [Cuprit], Tamesis [Breccia] and Coraelle [Haidi].

Next up is Eden [a story I've created but is being developed by both myself and evphaedrielle =3] which at the moment consists entirely of Roin [Hewer] on my end.

The Story Book World which has in it Little Miss Captain Sassy Pants [Beyla], her Shadow [Bygg], Rune [Ai], Charlie [Flint] and Sentry [Unoa Akubi hybrid].

And finally, the Alternate, alternate universe of Angel Hunt which has Toddler!Jun [Little Fee Chiwoo], Chibi!Fanuel [Little Fee El] and Chibi!Lan [Pyrol].

I really can't just have a doll without creating a character and a story for it, or fitting them into a story I've already done. It's just how I roll when it comes to ABJDs it would appear.

Who's your most expensive doll at the time you purchased them, not counting items you bought separately for them?
Still Jenova, to this day, who cost me nearly 2500.

Which doll had the shortest wait so far?
Hrmm, prolly a toll us between Jun and Sentry - Sentry wasn't ordered from a company, she was a trade dorru so she came rather quickly and Jun arrived from the company less than a week after I ordered him all those years ago.

Who’s the biggest doll you own?
Thial I suppose, 65 or 68cm [whatever the Soom long legged bods are] -though once Tam's upper torso parts arrive I think she'll be the tallest, her Amber hooves have her towering over all my others.

 Got any floating heads? If yes, how likely are they to receive bodies anytime soon?
Floating faceplate if that counts, which again, would be chibi!Fanuel's. Plan to get him a bod as soon as I can.

 Got any floating bodies?
I've held onto Jenova's original Volks SD13 body, and even though Samara will eventually be traded off, her body [and head] are still in my house so technically I have her.

 Do you have any extra, unclaimed pairs of eyes? How many if so?
omg yes - all of the eyes. Eyes are harder to sell unless they are fancy pants or urethane so I've managed to accumulate quite a few pairs over the years. I have some random glass and acrylic eyes that came default with various dolls, quite a few pupiless 14mm eyes in greens and blues, some artisan made 14 and 16mm eyes I'd bought for Sentry [one pair got lost in the mail so the seller sent me another, and a week later the lost pair showed up. She told me to keep them so I have an extra pair now], a single of Fuan's black eyeball, a single of Fanuel's old acrylic eyeball, Lan's brown eyes for his AU self, a couple pairs of black and gray eyes because I thought they'd work for Charlie and Sassy's Shadow [they didn't], a couple of DIY acrylic eyes I haven't DIY'd, both chibi Samara and teen Samara's iridescent eyes, the eyes I made for Ati'yya while I'd been waiting for her proper ones to show up and an extra pair of Roin's specially made eyes just in case. I prolly have a few more in there. The container is rather full ^^;

 Do you have any extra, unclaimed wigs? How many if so?
Yep, a bunch I'd love to get rid of [wigs are equally as hard to sell] just extras for when I was looking for new wigs for Fuan and Fanuel and struck out a lot, some MSD blue wig I got because I read the size wrong and thought it would work for Ati'yya back when she first arrived, there's some random black short shaggy wigs I have when I was searching for AU Lan's hair and a couple other this or that's that I don't remember that are sitting in a bag in my closet, waiting to be sold or given away.

 Anything you’ve said “never” to in the hobby that you later gave in to?
I said I'd never have more than one girl and one boy doll back in 2003 when I finally managed to get Megumi after years of pining for one prior and well... *points to list above* you can see how well I stuck to that.

Do you own dolls that aren’t BJDs?
Yes, quite a few different kinds actually. I have a bunch of Monster High repaints, a bunch of Novistars, Lalaloopsy minis, Sylvanian Family types, Vintage My Little Ponies [if you can count them as dolls, which I do], a Pullip, a few different Disney dolls [my Special edition Ursula, a holiday Ariel, a Rapunzel, Mulan, Jasmine <-with plans to get a few Cruellas again and find another special edition Maleficent since I gave her up 3 years ago when I was pruning for the move, and eventually I'd like to get a hold of a Pocahontas that doesn't look derpy, and a Kida [though with her I'll prolly have to make her because the one official one they came out with doesn't look much like her at all], another Meg [had her when acid-flier was small and regret giving her up, she's impossible to find for a good price in fair condition now], and then most likely an Elsa from Frozen. Haven't seen the movie yet, but I just really like the way that Elsa looks. There will prolly be a few more, oh! Like the one Vanessa doll they made from the Little Mermaid once I can get a hold of a multi pack that isn't priced horribly. She was done really well and she needs to sit along side her Ursula counterpart. the only problem with me getting her is that they didn't make her as a single so I'll have to get the entire pack, but ehhh, whatevers, I like her enough so it'll be a thing at some point when I happen to have an extra hundred or so to spare.], and an Equestria girl [Fluttershy, but I also have plans to pick up Celestria at some point because I like her coloring]. I also want to get my one American Girl Doll [Josephina] again at some point, and start re-collecting the historical sets and clothing from the eras I like [mostly Felicity's stuff because it was the prettiest] -sold her and all those things off just after I got Megumi in 2003 and have been pining to have them all back again. Eventually she'll make her way home once more, but she's a pretty low priority for me right now all in all.

I like collecting things, it would appear @_@

 What was your last doll-related purchase?
Some Vday gifties that I can't speak about until they come since they are meant for evphaedrielle's boys =3

What do you expect your next doll-related purchase to be?
Hopefully some shoes and clothing for various dolls, but most likely it'll be materials for clothing I can make for my shoppe.

What was the last doll related thing you purchased in person?
I don't think I've purchased any doll related thing in person for a really long time. I haven't had access to a doll shoppe since Seattle and even then it was years since I'd been to one. Sad really, but that's where the interwebs come in.

Alrightly, tagging ->

Well, it's been a while hasn't it? Sorry about that, I had/have a cosplay commission deadline come up and have been pretty busy trying to knock it off my to-do list. And a few others as well.

Basically, I haven't made anything new for the Shoppe because I've been holed up with commissions, once I'm done, I'll be back at the straight sale.

Other than that, it's the usual - life, a surprise trip to the ER/Urgent care last week [which was about as fun as a punch to the face with a sack of potatoes, let me tell you ~_~], life again. Same old same old. But I'm bouncing my way back and working to get caught up so some things will be coming up shortly [in me time, that translates to sometime before the end of the year xD]

I wanted to pop in and give an update, plus thank each and every one who wished me/sent Birthday greetings, I haven't had a chance to answer them individually, but it meant a whole hell of a lot and I appreciated it greatly :heart:

END TYPING.
