logicgunnDay 4: What are the origins of your penname/username?
Gunn is a nod to both the weapon and the fact that I'm Scottish (it's a Scottish surname that I'd pick if I wasn't a Wade). Logic is just cause I'm a scientist at heart. LogicGunn is my gamertag on pretty much every game I play, so it was only natural it became my fanon pseudonym. I'm the same name everywhere I go online.
Sorry, that's really dull! Far more interesting are the names that I considered and rejected, mostly on the count of them being either too fandom specific or giving too much away about myself.
But my old username, back when i was a teen, was fallendeatheater cause I was a big fan of Snape and I was team "Snape is a hero".

Date: 2021-06-04 06:41 pm (UTC)Scotland and Wales are really high up on my vacation plans. Scotland for very, very shallow reasons, and Wales because I want to see where my 18th and 19th great grandparents are buried. Well, entombed, really (my 18th great grandfather built St. Marys Warwick for his parents).

Date: 2021-06-04 06:55 pm (UTC)People often say that Scottish men never wear a kilt IRL. THIS IS A LIE. They'll take any excuse to throw one on, but by the time you see them they're usually already half cut, especially when they play sports for a living.
Wow, that's some history you have in your family! I can only go back a couple of generations before things get lost. I have driven past St Mary's, and almost attended an outdoor play outside it, but never had the chance to go in.
