Exactly what it says in the title, haaa. I'm going back to school for my B.S. in Accounting, but 5 years as an accountant apparently doesn't exempt me from this course's requirement to interview other professionals to ensure this is the industry for me.

Super easy process. All I need to do is email/DM you a list of questions. Get a response. Then submit it to my professor. You can use your real name, or a fake name if you want (ie: Joseph Smith being Joe Smart). As long as I'm not reporting the questions from "depreciatedeeznuts90", I think I should be good.

Bonus points if you work in taxes, auditing, or a hospitality/tourism field. I may also need to do a second follow-up interview with one person, which I'll throw a Starbucks gift card at (if it's not against the subreddit's rules).

Before it gets asked -- "Why can't you ask your co-workers?" -- I worked at my last job for 4yrs and we had a mass layoff due to them implementing a new AI Accounting software. Lost ~80% of my close contacts, and I'm not keen on reaching out to those who stayed.

Hello all! I'm a quilter, and this 2026 Art Fight I'm participating by creating quilt blocks of ocs. Each block incorporates the primary colors and themes of an oc, and the pattern is in some variation of the Ohio Star. I'm about halfway through my quilt, but I have some spare fabric in my stash that I **really** need to use, and I wanted to see if anybody had ocs who fit these color/theme profiles.

Of note, I have used the tag feature to find a good amount of ocs who fit my other fabrics (bugs, space, stained glass, eystrain colors, etc.), but with some of these more niche fabrics, I admittedly need help.

LUDICROUSLY SPECIFIC:

bright (BRIGHT) pink with sparkle or heart accents. Would look good for pink scene/hyperpop themed oc honestly. If they'd listen to creep-p, this fabric is theirs. (this fabric exactly. The image makes it look lighter than it is in real life. It's much closer to this other fabric from the same brand)
bright (BRIGHT!!!) blue with pink star & moon themes (very similar to this fabric as far as the blue/pink, but not the same pattern. It was a small creator's fabric.)
bright (BRIGHT!!!!) blue, orange, or green ocs with themes of foxes and rabbits (I was able to find one image on Pinterest, of all places - it's this pattern)
pink and green mosaic floral designs (similar to this tile pattern. It was a small creator's fabric.)
pink stationary themes (admittedly it's very childish fabric, so it would be good for an elementary/preschool teacher oc) (bonus points if they have blue and yellow in their design, since I have some stationary fabric which needs to be used)
green . . . diamonds? Many of them? I have this fabric, which could look like green diamond eyes, scales, or a pattern for an Alice in Wonderland inspired oc.
classical music (bonus points if they're goth, since all my sheet music fabric is gray/black, or white/black)
purple pansies (not as specific as everything above, but too specific to be considered a Normal fabric in my eyes)

NORMALLY SPECIFIC (LOL):

old timey nautical themes (this is almost the exact fabric I'm trying to match)
lumberjack vibes (I have a stash of red/green plaid, this moose fabric in red and green, and some pine tree themed fabrics which all need to be used)
white poinsettia flowers with gold accents (this fabric)
natural toned leopard print
bees (I have so much bee themed fabric ranging from cute to realistic)
Yeehaw American Southwest Cowboy themes (stars, bandana prints, etc.)
all shades of pink (I have a huge stash of pink fabric which needs to get used -- namely florals and solids ranging from soft pink to super violent pink)
all shades of purple (I have a much smaller stash of purple, but I'd love an excuse to go buy more)

Ocs don't have to specifically have some themes in their outfit. If you're thinking like "well I have an oc who does classical music, but their outfit doesn't have any musical motifs . . ." -- that still works for me. I like to take an oc's general story into account, so if you say that they do classical music, then they're on the board.
