Hey, guys! Welcome to my profile!
I'll be disappearing for a little while. :) Work has kept me really busy since I am no longer at school, and am getting a lot of extra shifts to support myself. I'm going to be using this Summer for travelling, since I will be college-bound come August: I'm going to stay with my aunt in Aberdeen for a week in June, m00ting in Oxford in July and going to Germany in August. It's going to be the best Summer ever! :D You know my email address: drop me a line sometime. :) Drache, I'm really sorry that I never replied. Hugs It's on my to-do list. ;)
I also managed to get my hands on FFVII for the PS1 which I have never played, and am hoping to play my way through that, as well as finally complete FFX sometime... I'm collecting the Celestial Weapons and other annoying side-quests. So far, I have everyone's Weapon: everyone's Crest and Wakka, Yuna and Auron's Sigil. Which is the furthest I've ever got - I may complete it yet. :P And I'm hoping to catch up on my reading list, which I have been neglecting for goodness knows how long!
Jaymo, rr1963... I hope that you guys are well. If you can, please drop me a quick note to put my mind at ease. Thank you to Gining, Drachegirl14 and ChibiSorrow for getting in touch! It was great to hear from you guys again. :D
-Hugs to all-

Although every single Aurikku, Spirited Away Hellsing and Yuffentine story currently on my favourites' list are all amazing and extremely well written, the recommended readings, in no particular order, are unique stories that I have read many times over, and ones that make me laugh and cry, and feel as if I am part of the story. These particular stories excel beyond all belief. Thank you, guys, for writing them! (The list is by no means finished. These recommended readings were comprised by a brief scan through my favourites list. There are definitely ommissions, but I'll contribute to the list as I go along. I'm really sorry if I missed anyone out. I would love to name every single Aurikku, Hellsing, Spirited Away and Yuffentine story here, but unfortunately, I don't have the space, and I would probably get yelled at anyway. I'm a relative n00b to Hellsing, so I have only read a very small portion of Hellsing FanFics.)
Updates:
17/10 Just when you thought I had disappeared off the face of the Earth, Tari has returned with Chapter Three of "To Zanarkand."
22/9 I took down "The Dance of Love" today. The story wasn't really heading anywhere, and didn't seem to be very popular, so I just removed it altogether.
12/6 Submitted the first Chapter of "Trembling in the Trials."
16/3 Just finished writing Chapter Two of "To Zanarkand!" Working on Chapter Three at the moment...
16/2 I submitted the first chapter of "To Zanarkand" today! Check the section under "Fiction in Progress" to read more about it!
2/2 I posted Chapter Three today! Which officially makes the story complete. Never completed a multi-chaptered fanfic before so I am really happy. It would probably have been nicer if I had saved it until Valentine's but meh. I'll give ya all an early treat!
26/1 Posted Chapter Two of "Unbreak My Heart" today!
7/1 YAY! Happy New Year everyone! I finally posted my lemony Aurikku one shot that I have been writing furiously for 4 days. Well, I started each night around 11ish and finished about 4 in the morning but we don't need to be picky. :) When Rikku gets locked out of her room in the Thunder Plains, she finds herself having to share a bed (and a shower XD) with Auron.
2/12 OMFG. It's officially the festive season! And I finished "Here Without You". Go me! Eh, Aurikku one shot with some innuendos and smut and fluff and citrusy goodness :)
21/11 Yay! Finally updated "Please Remember" - Chapter Five is now up! -Celebrates-
18/11 Submitted two fanfics - both LOTR - which I wrote quite a while ago. "The Dance of Love" was written three years ago on a website called TORC of which I submitted six chapters but never continued due to ill health. "New Beginnings" was written a year ago for submission to the SQA during my English Standard Grade exam. Both feature Legolas and OC. I have had to take down "New Beginnings" for a while so I could make some minor adjustments to it. :) Just CBA to re-submit it.
23/10 I have now completed writing an Aurikku one-shot called "Pure of Heart" which I am hoping to use in order to disguise my lack of updating "Please Remember". I am still waiting on my plot bunnies to take some time out from hibernating and giving me a hand...
20/9 Today I submitted my second fanfic called "Please Remember" which features Aurikkuey situations in the world of FFX. Hope you guys like it!
20/5 This is my first fanfiction called "A Distant Memory" which is Sailor Moon and deals in the pairing Serena x Darien. Just to warn you: this is AU and features no display of the Sailor Senshi. Discontinued.
I HAVE A NEW OBSESSION!
SPIRITED AWAY!! I really don't need to say anymore, do I? :)
I'm obsessed with the anime and manga Hellsing. :D I got the Hell-subs and manga for my Xmas, and have ordered the OVA. And I am crushing on the main character, Alucard, (Dracula spelled backwards) who is a vampire, and bears resemblances to Auron and Vincent: He's dead; he likes black and red; he has red eyes; he has fangs; he has inner demons; (snort) he has a sexy voice; he has a dark past; he sleeps in a coffin; he has superior strength; he is immortal; he can heal any wound and he has two guns which can annihilate any enemy.
After watching Final Fantasy VII Advent Children and playing some of Dirge of Cerberus, I am utterly infatuated with the one and only Vincent Valentine! You probably gathered that from my previous rant, though. :P There are so many similarities between the gunslinger and Auron: physical, as well as mental. I mean, they both wear a red coat with black shirt, trousers and too many belts; they both speak very little, but both have incredibly sexy voices; they both wield highly dangerous weapons. Although, I kinda expected Vinnie to wield a sword, I kinda thought it was more appropriate... They both have dark pasts; have been betrayed really badly, and are nostalgic. Oh yeah, and they're both dead and hide the lower half of their face. Not to mention that they pair incredibly well with hyper teenage girls. :D I find Yuffentine incredibly cute, so my favourites list is now comprised of aurikku and Yuffentine. Vinaragi sounds frigging hilarious, but it doesn't have the same ring as Yuffentine. XDXD
I also have an adorable Vincent Valentine plushie which sits on top of my futon. He's really amazing, complete with cape, claw and pointy boots. I could just squggle him all day.
And my best friend also drew me two amazing portraits of Auron and Vincent which hang proudly up on my wall. I must remember to bug her or my friend Thomas from work to draw Alucard for me...
Why do I get the feeling that I am talking to myself here? I'll shut up now and move on.
Fiction in Progress: I have finished writing Chapter Three of "To Zanarkand". It is AU where Rikku gets kidnapped from her home and forced to work in a brothel. She is very badly treated and her existence here is miserable, until her salvation comes in the form of a very unlikely person: a regular customer, Auron. I've not started writing the fourth chapter yet, but no doubt, it will take a long time to be completed.
Also working on some various Hellsing fics, but they'll take a long time to be completed.
A challenge from Drachegirl14 was one that I couldn't resist writing. It is called Desert Rose and is Aurikku, but since the story is still in the works and I have not decided on a definite plot (apart from the one designated in the challenge) so I won't be able to say much about it now. Watch this space though!
Eh, I'm planning on writing another Aurikku one shot called "More Than Words" which would be based in Macalania around the time when Tidus and Yuna are busy in the lake. Although, I have a lot of course work now that this is my last year, and I am sitting 3 Advanced Highers and one Higher, so it is really when I get a chance. Same with updating "Please Remember".
Thanks to Losttoxichope, I have continued writing "Unbreak My Heart" which mainly features Auron and Rikku getting jiggy in a series of travel agencies along the road and in many different places and positions too. (Cough) Under the desk; in a closet; on the snowmobile (cough) It does have a plot but basically: Auron plus Rikku plus snowmobile equals kinky sex! XD Chapter Two is now officially up and I have just posted Chapter Three - which makes the story complete!
I got a nice PM from PetiteCookie asking if she would be seeing another chapter of "Please Remember" soon. I've not written anything in well over a year, but I will try my very best to get another chapter out, and call it a day. Although, the plot in mind would leave a very nasty cliffhanger, and I would no doubt be hunted down.
I have started writing "Trembling in the Trials" which was a dare from The Kat. Basically, when Auron and Rikku get locked in the Cloister of Trials, they have to think of a way to "amuse XD" themselves until help arrives. I submitted Chapter One recently and am working on Chapter Two at the moment.
Oh, oh, oh! I almost forgot! After reading my little rant and rave section about seriously wanting to kill Yunalesca and Seymour - Gin challenged me. I have not started writing it yet - but I can never turn down a challenge. Keep your eyes peeled!
About me: As I said before, I am a seventeen-year-old girl, born and bred in Scotland. I am quite small (roughly about 4'11'') with mid-chest, dark, brown hair, one blue eye, one green eye (thankfully they are not as prominent as Yuna's though!) and I wear glasses. I have my ears pierced 7 times, belly button pierced, nose pierced and 3 tattoos. Oh yeah, and my best friend says that I am in serious need of a psychiatrist... In a good way mind you. :) I am an only child which can be really boring sometimes but most of the time, I am normally daydreaming about Auron and Vincent Valentine, plotting some revenge on some random people, or just goofing around pissing people off. My dad says I'm really good at that. XD
Video games: My favourite video game is Final Fantasy X! I have not completed it (dodges flying puppies and shoes) but have just kicked Bitchalesca's ass in Zanarkand. Man, I hate that bitch so much! I am desperate to get back to the game, but unfortunately, I got bored with chasing down the Dark Aeons and finding the Celestial Weapons, so I started a new game and even managed to win the Blitzball Finals! Kingdom Hearts is okay - I have both I and II but I find them confusing in many places. Sometimes, I find it hard to know where to go (like in Traverse Town, I did not know where the hell the Third District was - and I have only managed to fly the gummi ship without dying... GO ME!) Final Fantasy X-2, I do not like at all. You can tell that Square Enix just wanted to make money and didn't really care about plot, characters or sanity. I mean, Rikku looks like a prostitute and Yuna has turned into a replica of her cousin almost. In this case, the original was much better - it had everything in it - apart from Auron and Rikku going at it like chocobos in heat of course! XD FFX had a much better storyline - so romantic - and not to mention one of the best video game endings in history. The only concrit is probably the length of some of the FMV scenes. But they do get shorter as you work your way through the game. I got the Strategy Guide for FFX for my Christmas and I love it! The pictures are so freaking awesome! XD You cannot say that Rikku and Auron never got it on behind the scenes in X - the evidence is all there: in X-2, she fights with Auron's sword and a replica of his coat and there is also a song she sings in the X-2 Vocal Collections called "Without You" with references to stories... WHO IN X DOES NOT STOP GOING ON ABOUT STORIES FFS?!. Another reason why I strongly dislike X-2 - there should have been a X-3 but Square Enix decided to combine Yuna and Rikku's story into X-2... But Rikku is the only character without a plot!
Would seriously like to kill - or at least severely maim: Yunalesca and Seymour! GAH! I hate those two. Even more than my psychotic inner self! Seriously, Gining and I made a plan to murder one (if not both of them) and if she is still willing, we still may carry them out. Seymour is seriously in need of a psychiatrist. (I am such a hypocrite) and has to take hormones tablets or something to get rid of that annoyingly feminine giggle of his. And Yunalesca? Well, what more can I say? That bitch killed Auron! -Squggles Aurrie- Not to mention that she is seriously evil. Meh. Also Paladin Alexander Anderson. Why are all bad guys Scottish? -Sniff-
Favourite books: Anything by Professor Tolkien... I worship the man. If it wasn't for him I would never have become a proud and devoted TORCer, and met so many great people who I never knew existed. I would not even be the same Tari that you all know today. "The Tales of the Otori" trilogy by Lian Hearn - those books are three of the most compelling novels that I have read in years. I really want to read the prequel and sequel. Also, "The Birthright" and "The King's Heir" by Loralee Evans.
Interests: Tolkien, LotR, The Silmarillion, The Hobbit, Unfinished Tales, The Children of Húrin, Elvish, The Tales of the Otori, Books, Reading and writing FanFiction, Final Fantasy X, Aurikku, Final Fantasy VII, Yuffentine, Hellsing, Alucard x Integra, Alucard x Seras, TORC, Manga, Anime, Finland, Japan, Malaysia, Insanity, Penguin and Furby hunting, tartan ponies.
I am grateful for those who are taking some time out to read my contribution to the non-canon world of Aurikku. It would really make my day, however, if anyone could review my work and let me know which areas need to be altered to better my writing or even some plot ideas. I have been writing for a few years but I could still use some pointers.
If you have any comments, questions or just want a chat, you can e-mail me at alucards_insane_fledgling@hotmail.co.uk ROFL! You can really tell that I am a mahussive Hellsing 'shipper now! XDXD or add me to your MSN and Yahoo list by the same address! I would love to hear from you!
