edit data

Adrielle Reina is a spooky, kooky autistic lady from Appalachia. She studied biological anthropology and data engineering, but cursing her enemies and writing are her true passions. She has a cool son who often reminds her how uncool she is, three dogs, a cat, and a husband who looks like Nicholas Hoult (he’s also funny too). Legends say that she can be summoned with coffee, Pokémon, more dogs, horror movies/books, and the blood of those who wish her ill.
