What is this? Did you know that AFF is celebrating its 7th year of being up and running? Every year we have thought of ways to commemorate this special date by doing various activities.

With that being said, this year we have decided to make it all about you with these 45 questions, interview with yourself, survey, quiz—whichever you wanted to call it haha.

Why are we doing 45 Questions? Because... it's fun. Don't question.

Our theme for this year is the freesia, when given on the 7th Anniversary it upholds trust and faithfulness within a bond. The freesia is also a symbol of friendship. It was named freesia after Friedrich H. T. Freese by fellow botanist Christian P. Ecklon, as a tribute to their friendship.

This day marks seven years of trust, faithfulness and friendship with the site, it's creator and the community. As a thank you to all participants, we leave you with a thank you message from the creator of AFF himself.

"Happy 7th! I'm glad to have you all here, veterans and newcomers alike. I always tend to get super busy around AFF's anniversary time for some reason so I'm extremely grateful to Team Cactus for putting this together. They've come up with some really good questions! Hope you enjoy Team Cactus' quiz!"

And I almost forgot about this: Jason created another website called roleplayrepublic.com It's a really nice place to roleplay on and many people who are here on AFF are also on RPR (and the other way around).

First off: Thumbs up, you realized you're supposed to put in who you are and who tagged you! I'm very proud of you! (Most people forget to do it or maybe don't really see it >.<)
And wow, you've been on here even longer than I have! Somehow it's really difficult lately to find people who have been here for more than 4 years and are still active.
I'm happy to hear you want to get to know me better <3 I'd definitely love to stay in contact, too!! Is there anything in specific you'd like to know? If so (now or at any point in the future) just go ahead and ask!
Sadly, yours is the only TaeKey story I've read so far... I've roleplayed that couple a while back and then got more into it, so I ended up looking for stories. And since I happen to only have one subscribed TaeKey fanfic on my profile, yours must have been the most interesting one among the ones that popped up :) <3 I wish I could recommend anything to you, but the closest I get to that couple outside your story is one of my own where it's only a side couple... So I guess that's not exactly what you're looking for ^^'
I hope your dream comes true and one day a TaeKey fanfic and maybe even your own will be featured!
