So, this is my profile? Well, might as well make myself interesting:
Pen Name: Monsignor Gabriel
Real Name: Uh... Gabriel (duh).
Age: 16
Gender: the big M
Sexuality: Straight, that's all I need to say
Nationality/Roots: Cuban/Puerto Rican/American/Italian
Birhtplace: San Juan, Puerto Rico... maricón!
Favorite Categories: Anime/Manga and Crossovers in general
Favorite Anime: D.N Angel, Love Hina, Neon Evangelion Genesis, Inuyasha, The Boondocks (I'm still looking for the comics...) and I'm still looking for more... About a few days ago, I got into Naruto ('cause I saw this girl at my school wearing a ninja headband)
Music Interests: Metal in general, but my favorite is typical metal, like AC/DC, System Of A Down and shock rock like Marylin Manson and Alice Cooper. I'm also a big fan of Gorillaz. My favorite song is "Dirty Harry". And I've also delved into Reggae a little bit, and Matisyahu and his song "Youth" is my current catch. Also, I am a HUMONGOUS fan of Pink Floyd, and my favorite album is obviously DARK SIDE OF THE MOON!
I have actually gained the title of "guru" due to my knowledge of music, be it mainstream, underground or otherwise. I love music in general, though classic, psychedelic and hard rock are my preferences. I am a fan of several hip-hop artists (though none of the mainstream ones). I like my music complex, poetic, rhythmical and funky. I like my rock pummeled hard, and my metal to be heavy, very heavy. I am also the only member in my family who has the most varied musical collections and knowledge (beat my dad, too).
Music inspires most of my writing, especially when I can visualize it. I've tried writing my own lyrics to songs, though I can't write music for them since I can't play an instrument, nor can I read music. I've tried taking guitar lessons... but I'm too lazy to learn much. Drums is attractive, though my parents haven't bought me a kit for both financial reasons and because they think guitar is more time-worthy. I can make an excellent front-man for any band, though I need to synch my singing a little bit. I have a wide range, have a loud, soulful voice and I'm really charismatic on stage. Still, no band would look at me, even if I was a better fronter for other punks (I swear, the band that used to play at my school had the suckiest singer: some emo punk that sounded like he had swallowed a cat, and stood stock-still while singing. However, the rest of the band rocked so hard they picked up the singer's slack. That didn't stop me from yelling "GET OFF THE STAGE, EMO BOY!"
I dislike bubble-gum pop, especially boy-bands, ugh... and Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson, Ashlee Simpson, Avril Lavigne, Justin Timberlake and all of that crap, the little capitalist pigs. I usually like to compare the fall of pop music in the 90's to the fall of Communism in order to cheer myself up. Honestly, you can love music, you can sing fantastic and you can sell records... but if the music isn't worked on really hard, it doesn't even deserve to be heard (and for all synth lovers out there, no, synth music CANNOT be called hard work).
Nowadays, I've harbored an extensive hate of the new bands that are coming out (the likes of Hinder, The All-American Rejects, Fall-Out Boy, and Panic! At The Disco, which I think won the award for "Muckiest Band Name" at some point in their lives). Emo bands such as My Chemical Romance and Good Charlotte suck as well. Evanescence is safe, just because they have a fantastic female singer that is wasting her talents on a worthless franchise that has already disseminated.
Honestly... sometimes I can't help but wish I had a band that could sky-rocket ahead of all the others and rule as kings of rock! The rest of these pussies aren't worthy of their blood-line.

Works (some still in production or brainstorming):
Author's Note: All stories are, believe it or not, in CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER. By the way, there is an... ENIGMA hidden in the whole of the story... if you read, I believe you will see it very clearly... The truth of the universe itself is before you, man...
1. The BRAIN DAMAGE series: My favorite story to work on. The finale is up! The other two stories and characters were removed due to a lack of inspiration and... well, because manga is screwing people up on a mass basis.
2. The JUMPIN' JACK FLASH series: An upcoming D.N Angel story that involves a second alias Daisuke adopts... a vigilante alias. Gifted with powers he receives earlier on (the final BRAIN DAMAGE story), he develops a reputation of this new persona... and runs across Saint Tail, Sailor Moon and the CLAMP boys. Coming Soon

4. LET THERE BE METAL: A crossover of Metalocalypse, Gravitation and Loveless... and no, no crossover yaoi will be present. The already-couples will keep their hands to themselves... Anyway, Nathan is requested to attend an award for "Best Lyricist" in Japan. However, while there, he gives a concert that depicts a new song of his. It is given good reception, so good in fact Nathan is convinced of making a solo record specifically for Japan.

Coming Soon.
