I’m Mez, and this is where I host some of my projects (pretty much exclusively). You can follow the site updates via various decentralised channels. If I had to sum up what this site is about, I suppose it’s a “fandom website” broadly speaking, but also a place for me to experiment with CSS and occasionally post opinions into the void. Everything is mobile-friendly! 🎉
The contents of this site are licensed under CC BY-NC 4.0. 
In short: feel free to use anything I create as long as you link to the original on my site and aren’t deriving any financial gain from it. This also holds as a transformative works policy/blanket statement.
I used to use mainstream social media channels, then transitioned to non-profit ones such as Dreamwidth and Archive Of Our [sic] Own, but these days I avoid uploading content to sites that aren’t part of praze.net where possible. I’m now in my thirties and my various attempts at “making friends” on the internet over the years never really worked, so instead of wasting my energy trying to integrate into various online communities, I’m just posting stuff here and you can look at it too if you like.
If you’d like to link to my site, here are some non-aesthetic buttons:

About me
I try not to share the details of my irl sona online, but here’s the basic stuff:
- I was born in the early nineties.
- Since 2016, I’ve been living in Northern Ireland. I grew up in a different part of the UK.
- I am a native speaker of English and one other language. (Tre loosely means “home” in that language.)
- My exposure to creative media usually consists of books (fiction and non-) and (usually Japanese) video games. I don’t watch many films and we don’t have a TV.
- I’m a bit of a weeb (like a 4 on the weeb scale) but embarrassingly, I also really like France.
About this site
- This is a hobby for me. I’m not an IT professional and I’m not making any money from anything here.
- There are no trackers anywhere – look at as much or as little as you like, I will have no idea!
- All the code is written by me, whether it’s raw HTML or scripts for generating a few of the pages.
- I like to include elements of modern web technologies where they’re useful. Everything here is mobile-friendly, and pages in the current style switch between light and dark mode automatically depending on device settings. JavaScript is used here and there, but sparingly, and I include fallbacks for non JS-enabled devices.
- View at your own risk etc.

Verifying my identity
I own and administer the praze.net domain. All content on this domain is authored by me with the exception of the git.praze.net and kes.praze.net subdomains, where a couple of accounts belong to very close associates.
On other domains
Outside the praze.net domain, the following accounts belong to me:
- ovely on archiveofourown
- pilpaotr on discogs
- mezzin on dreamwidth
- litrovers on last.fm
- cornoz on spotify
- trovere on steam
Each of these accounts contains the randomly generated string 5n3oi9f somewhere on its main/profile page to verify that it belongs to me. If you don’t see it on the page, check the HTML source.
The following accounts also belong to me, but are empty/dormant/used only to bypass login walls or interact with other users’ content:
- tremeur29 on github
- 88001641 on pixiv
- dermotmorgan on tumblr
Anything not on this list isn’t mine (or, much less probably, it may happen to belong to me under my IRL/professional identity). I haven’t linked the accounts directly because this isn’t intended as a carrd-style “where to find me”, although it’s pretty easy to find the actual urls for any of these profiles, obviously.
Shtack
I use NearlyFreeSpeech for domain registration/DNS, as well as for hosting a couple of services. Most things are hosted on a Vultr VPS.
