What's that? You want to know something about me? Well, let's see...

I love movies, collecting and animating action figures, and natural history. My favorite (modern) animal is the gorilla. My favorite prehistoric animal is Therizinosaurus cheloniformis. I have a JournalFen account here.

My primary fandoms are: King Kong, Pirates of the Caribbean (I'm currently writing a crossover of these two), The Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Alien, Indiana Jones, Hellboy/B.P.R.D., plus many many more that I've forgotten to mention.

I have a weakness for fics that include crossovers (provided they're well-written), werewolves, and animal transformations.

Anything else?

Current Fics In Progress

Captain Jack Sparrow and the Island of the Skull: (PotC crossover with King Kong)The world is shrinking, the blank edges of the map filled in…but not all. Captain Jack Sparrow has escaped from Norrington & the Royal Navy, and now seeks some form of leverage against Davy Jones. His search leads him, his own crew, and the crew of privateers, to a mysterious fog-shrouded island southwest of Sumatra, with a mighty and ancient wall, and something monstrous, neither beast nor man, which lives behind it.

Plot Bunnies

Crossovers
Pirates of the Caribbean / Jaws: In interviews about the music to Jaws, Spielberg sometimes mentions how John Williams, upon seeing the first rough cut of the film, said that it needed some pirate music. And indeed, anyone familiar with the movie may recall a lot of that kind of music during the third act, when our heroes set out to kill the shark. I can just imagine Will, Jack, and Barbossa as Brody, Hooper, and Quint, respectively...or maybe Norrington as either Brody or Hooper...

PotC / "The Pirates of Penzance" / "H.M.S. Pinafore": Because I cannot believe no one's tried this yet (or if they have, I haven't seen it).

"Firefly" / The Descent: I'm curious about how River would read the minds of the Crawlers.

Star Wars / Alien: Could be interesting.

Indiana Jones / PotC: In 1948, Indiana Jones and Jack "Smith" must beat the Russians to the Dead Man's Chest and the Flying Dutchman.

Other
The Descent: Various angsty studies of each of the six characters (esp. Sarah and Juno).
