Dreamwidth Accounts

So Dreamwidth is doing the anti-spam crackdown thing and reminded people to check that their emails are verified for their accounts.
I have the following accounts:
Eldabe - my main one, where I spend my time, hello.
Eldarwannabe - my LJ backup. It makes me sad I couldn't back up the comments, my favorite part, but I don't want to lose this either. Why didn't I back up my LJ to this account? I don't know, I'm a messy disaster.
S****** - An old account I made a while back to be my main complaining place for stuff I didn't put anywhere else. I used it for a few months and then stopped, but I logged back in to check anyway.
I***** - This account I've been saving for one day when I am a Serious Adult Person who blogs about Serious Adult Things. I should probably give up on that dream, but whatever! I still want the account, the username is really meaningful to me.
I pay for a bunch of Dreamwidth points every year, I don't feel bad about four accounts. I tried to log into each of them, and good news, I still have the first three passwords saved. Bad news, don't know what the password was for the last one and more importantly, don't remember which email address I connected it to! So that's my next great adventure to track down, WHOOPS. x_x
More importantly, I've been wanting to make a new account and I feel like this is a good impetus to do so. See, the thing is, one of the things that makes me anxious about the fics I'm writing right now is that they are darker fics in Cursed Child fandom, a ridiculously fluffy fandom. Like, RIDICULOUSLY fluffy. And there's been some...IDK, fandom drama seems too strong, but I was made to feel uncomfortable in this fandom for wanting to write about some dark stuff. And with my fandom anxiety, it completely shut me down for a while. And I feel like, if I can find an even MORE pseudonymous account to post some of my darker (and, uh, sexier?) stuff, it might help give me the courage to do it.
Part of me thinks, oh gosh, this is ridiculous. How many accounts do I want to juggle?
And part of me is like, if it helps, do it. It's free! I'll made a DW and an AO3 account and I'll just make sure to only post on those two platforms. And people will find my fics, or more likely they won't, and at least I'll have the courage to put them out there. And that's a good goal.
(Part of me is like, no one uses DW, I can just post them here and only make a new Ao3 account and the odds that anyone will put it all together are small lolol. But I've linked my DW on my fandom twitter and my fandom tumblr and my Ao3, so I think....not.)
The one thing is coming up with a new username. And maybe a new email address to keep it all tidy. I mean, roleplayers on DW do much more complicated stuff! This shouldn't be so hard!
