Name: Catie-Cat.

Age: 21! Woot! Sippin' Amareto and living the good life.

Sex: Female

Religion: Agnostic with Pagan tendancies. Confused? Me too.

Political Bend: Registered Democrat, but very moderate.

Job: Full Time College Student. (YAY Potsdam!)

Favorite Games: FFVII, FFX, FFTactics, Kingdom Hearts(1&2)::mumble::pokemon::mumble::, Super Smash Bros. Melee, Titan Quest, Guild Wars, Diablo 2. And Classic NES, like The Legend of Zelda.

Favorite Pairings:

Cloud/Aeris: I have loved this couple ever since the video game first came out. Please don't argue with me that Cloti is a better pairing. I just don't agree. I am far more of a star-crossed, spiritual, tragic love kind of girl. Cloti is just too basic for me.

Aeris/Auron: Only because of a role play where I was Aeris and she was in Spira. 'Cides, Auron is damn hot. He just is. Tidus is Cloud on prozac. Auron is an angsty older guy.

Tifa/Zack: Suddenly loving this couple. Don't ask me why.

Ramza/O.C: There really is no lady in Tactics that suits Ramza, in my view, so I usually make a character for him.

Vincent/Lucretia: I repeat: I am into star-crossed, spiritual, tragic kinda love. I think they're soul mates. And Vincent is old enough to be Yuffie's dad and then some. Creepy much? (No offense to Yuffentines, just not my cup of tea unless its AU and Vinny loses a couple of... years?)

Current Projects:

To Keep Her Promise. Six months after the defeat of the Remnants Aeris and a female firewolf named Edenni return to Gaia to stop an unidentified evil called The Denizen. Can Aeris unravel the mystery, and make something of her second chance at life, or will evil triumph and Aeris be sent back to the Lifestream? Rated T.

Update: Chapter 14, A Heavy Legacy, went live 11:00 PM on 8/20/07.

If Music Be the Food of Love. Ghost in the Mirror Challenge. Aeris and Cloud and the leaders of two rival bands, both Under Pressure (I couldn't resist) of celebrity. Will the find happiness in each other, or will the rivalry tear them, and their bands, apart? Rated M for language, adult themes, and drug use.

Update: Chapter 3 went live 6-10. It is next on the list for an update. If there isn't one before Thursday it'll have to wait for monday, since my cousin is getting married Saturday and I'm in the wedding party.

Behind the Mask of Mars Part 1: Page. Nox Wicked Challenge. Aeris hides her gender and adopts the name Aeric to attend page training while her twin, Arc, goes to the City of the Cetra to study magic. But can she keep up her act as her body begins to change? And what about the enemies and friends she makes among the other pages, like Prince Squall and his cousin, Cloud Strife? Roughly based on The Song of the Lioness by Tamora Pierce. This is a cross-over, featuring many characters from many FFs. Arc is from FF3 (http://www.ffcrystals.limited-chaos.com/ffiii/characters/Arc_White.jpg Isn't he cute?)

Update: Doing a little research on older FFs to find characters for certain roles and flesh out the story more in my mind. Like I don't remember what FF6's Locke looks like, so I gotta play the game to see him. Characters you can count on seeing (Eventually): Tifa, Yuffie, Zell, Locke, Terra, Yuna, Rikku, Shinra (X2, not FFVII), Paine, Raijin, Ansem (KH2, the REAL Ansem), Barret, Zack, Rafa, Malak, Sephiroth, Auron, Seifer, Laguna, Garnet, Raine, Kiros, and Fujin. If I've missed a favorite, please let me know, and I'll work them in if I can. _

And Then There Were Nine. As Tifa lies dying in a nursing home she thinks back on those who went before us. My version of how the other characters died. Somewhat grim, but mostly reverential. Cloud/Aeris, Tifa/Rude (cause he wanted it so badly). Rated T for character death and language.

Cloud/Aeris 100 Word Drabble Challenge. Words done so far: Reflection, Ocean, Dream. Oh, if you've written any stories for the 100 word drabble challenge, please let me know so I can put it in my C2.

What to Expect in the Future:

FFX/VII Cross-over. Based on an RP with a dear friend. The planet decides to spare Aeris from death by sending her into Spira, and pulls Rikku out to take her place. Expect odd couplings, and a couple traditional ones too.

Song of Orpheus: A mixing of FFVII and a classic greek myth. Monsters, materias, and dieties, OH MY! T'will be Cleris of course. If you know the story of Orpheus and Eurydice (your-id-is-ee, not youri-dice), expect a simliar scenario. As for the outcome, I don't dare give it away!

Turk: To explain it now would ruin its future glory. So explain I shall not. :grin:

Videos for the funness of watching ( -- Has been posessed by Pill-z apparently)

http://www.metacafe.com/watch/68800/the_cloud_song/ --- warnings, video is so ungodly cute you just may die of cardiac arrest, or become completely addicted. OH NO, MY BISHINESS IS SHOWING!

http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view.php?id=58184 ------ this video has characters from FF1-X (not tactics, pout) and features Cloud at the start and Aeris at the end. GO AERIS!
