Hiya, I'm pretty sure you aren't interested in my personal details but I thought I'd indulge myself and pretend that people are :)

Name: Nubbin

Gender: Female

Age: 19

Fave Fics

Harry Potter, Gundam, Naruto, Beyblade, Yu-Gi-Oh, Buffy, Pirates of the Caribbean, House, CSI...loads more but they're the main ones...

Pairings:

Ok I won't list them all but basically I love slash, yaoi, shounen ai, what ever you want to call it. Basically any male character crossed with another is cool with me (as long as it isn't gross like...I dunno...Dumbledore and Hagrid or something...shudder) but I'll also read any good het fic. My main faves are Harry/Snape, Remus/Snape, Ron/OMC, Neville/OMC, Snape/OMC, 2x3, 1x2, 1x2x5, 1x5, 2x5, 3x4, 1x4, SasuNaru, KakaIru, KaiTy, KaiTala, KenTal, Bry/OMC, KaiRai, YYxY, YBxB, SxJ, MxOMC, YYxOMC, XanSpi, XanAn, SpAn, JSxCN, JSxWT, HouWil, RyOMC, NicGre, HodGreg, HodNic...

Dislikes:

Badly written fics - I'm sorry, but they piss me off. If you're going to write a story then don't use sentences like 'He said did not want to cause he didn't like the guys hair so then he left and found a better place' because basically its crap and a waste of time. This also includes fics where the characters are completly unrealistic - I apologize if there are any good fics out there like this but - I just can't empathise with a originally stoic or strong character who cries every two seconds even if he is Harry Potter. It's annoying.

The female characters in Harry Potter - I don't know why but the thought of any of them (apart from Luna perhaps) with any of the guys makes me feel sick unless its a decent version of Hermione.

Crap female/uke characters - It doesn't always seem to come through in text but not all girls are gossips, simpering idiots or damsels in distress just as all uke's aren't small, beautiful, delicate and seemingly defenceless. I'd love to see a fic where both people in the relationship are equals. That said simpering idiocy, pathetic-ness and close-mindedness are all useful traits to apply to the bashing characters :D

Mary Sues/whatever the male version is - need I say more? Be realistic people!

Homophobe flamers - if you don't like slash then don't read it, most if not all such fics have clear warnings. So if you don't like slash and read it anyway, just so you can complain, then you really need to grow up. It's petty and stupid.

Likes:

Slash - 'cause it's just darn cute :)

Strong female characters - women who kick ass are the best! This doesn't mean they have to be bitches, it just means that they're not going to be walked over.

The underdog characters - for some reason I just love the characters that aren't focused on as much in the original works. My faves are Ron, Neville, Snape, Lupin, Kenny, Bryan, Trowa and Wufei. I think it's because they're easier to invent different aspects to without changing the original plot too much.

Manipulative/Bashing Dumbledore/Hermione/Ron etc - I like it when everything gets flipped on its head, where Voldy is under some evil curse or the characters always seen as bad are actually good (like Draco and Snape) while all the supposedly good characters are nasty.

Unusual pairings (unusual, not squicky) - such as Neville/Ron, Ron/Blaise, Charlie/Harry, Bill/Snape, Luna/OMC, Luna/OFC, Mil/Pan, Ken/Tala, Kai/Ken, Bry/Ken etc

Really believable fics - even if it's about magical kingdom or a supernatural being, there's something fantastic about a realistic piece of writing that gets me ensnared. There have actually been times where, half way into a good fic at a moment where the main character is being treated really badly, I'm actually outraged and have to leave off for a bit so I can cool down and vent through poetry :D Now that is a good piece of writing!

My Fics

Basically my attempts at writing something. I have no motivation however so most of them are short, but hey! At least I try :D His Eyes, Marauders by Night and Hide and Seek are all old fics so they're not exactly the best things I've ever written. That said I have some Gundam, Beyblade and more Harry Potter fics in the works, they're actually more than one chapter long! My writing style has become less...chaotic...but my grammar still sucks. Trying to get them finished before posting...I have writers block atm. Bah!

Big thanks to the people that have reviewed and/or added me to faves. It means a lot...I promise to try and get Hide and Seek finished. I have the next two chapters written down somewhere, they're just...temporarily misplaced lol

Reviews and constructive criticism always welcome...
