About Me

Name: Sorry, private information- I don't like stalkers. You can call me Rori though...

Gender: Tomboy

Age: I'm at the moody teenage stage

Region: Pacific Northwest, USA

School: Again private information, but I will say it's an art school and I LOVE IT TO DEATH!

Favorite Colors: Earthy tones, black, red

Favorite Music/Artists: Evanescence, Linkin Park, Enya, Kenny Loggins, Smooth Jazz, Jazz, Mannheim Steamroller, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Lord of the Dance, Riverdance, my tastes are pretty mixed.

Hobbies: Anime, recreating the Middle Ages with my family, fencing, archery, writing, and most recently, photography.

Personality: I'm pretty optimistic, recreating the Middle Ages had instilled what I guess you could call "fairy tale values" in me- I value honor and loyalty very much. I'm very defensive of my friends and family... I hold grudges and my preferred ways of settling things usually involve violence. I have a short-ish temper and do not mind getting physical. My friends usually hold me back and calm me down so I don't get that far. I hate all things deemed "girly" with a passion- skirts, dresses and make-up are all things I hate. I have a tendency to growl and snarl- I'm an instinctual person and I generally run on my emotions.

Quirks: I love blades, and fire... a lot. I also have a strange love of the number three. I love triangles and trios. One of my favorite Naruto pairings is NaruSakuSasu- a threesome. Wonderfully written pairing. Three is just...three. Stable. schnoogles the number

Belief: Agnostic, I think there's something or rather multiple somethings out there, I just don't know what. I think we need to stop killing the earth, 'cause once she's dead, we're dead too. I happen to like living thank you very much!

Swearing: I cuss loudly and often. I don't regard swear words as bad- they are merely a set of adjectives and exclamations that I happen to like using.

Quotes: I know there are profiles that go on forever and a day since they're cluttered with quotes so I'll try and it keep it down below...five.

"Writing is a very simple trick: All you have to do is sit and stare at a blank piece of paper, until beads of blood form on your forehead..." Off the Wall at Callahan's

"This is stupid, childish and insane...We start on three." Anonymous

“Who is but the form following the function of what, and what I am is a man in a mask...I'm merely remarking upon the paraody of asking a masked man who he is." V from V for Vendetta

"It takes forty two muscles to frown. It only takes four muscles to raise that blade in your hand and stab someone." Personal variation of the "Takes forty two muscles to frown; only four muscles to..." quote

I've always been crazy but it's kept me from going insane." Waylon Jennings

Other: As you might have guessed from my penname, I love anime and almost anything connected with it. Sadly, I cannot go to many conventions due to time and financial constraints (debt sucks, never get a credit card.) Oh, another thing that might interest you (If you've read this far xD) is that my homepage is linked to my LiveJournal but be warned that I epically fail at updating it on a regular basis.

Beta-ing: I am quite willing to be a beta is someone decides to let me read their work- contact me through e-mail. I'm currently a beta for Inuluvr, rose-of-alabaster, elizabet639, Morningtheft, TheBareFootBandit, Serenarey Chibi, Bianca Chang and...I think that's it. At the moment. Apologies if I forgot about someone...

Betas: My current betas are Inuluvr, rose-of-alabaster, elizabet639 and probably a few others...sorry if I forgot you! My betaing relationships are mostly reciprocal- I beta for them and they put up with my pathetic wailing cries for assistance. Much loves to all of them!

Stories/Reviews and Alerts/Flamers

My stories might or might not be updated regularly, due to Real Life AKA school. I may post some poerty- schoolwork, I rarely feel the urge to jot down my feelings in a metaphorical way on my own. I may run on emotions but I'm not touchy-feely.

Future Stories:

Obito-sensei: There've been stories about the ghost of a certain blonde's father hanging around in a spectral form or appearing and training said blonde. But what about a goggle-toting, spiky haired Uchiha?

Wandering Fox II: I have a sequel planned where the Yondaime asks his wayward son via a letter delivered by one wandering Fox to come back home and teach some new genin...

Banished Carpenter: Four years after Uzumaki Naruto was banished from Konoha, a bleeding and near-unconscious Uchiha Sasuke knocks on a random door. The door is answered by a familiar face with an unfamiliar name- Why is Naruto a carpenter and why is he under the name Uzumino Kitsu? SasuNaruSasu with at least one OC (Naruto's apprentice), no one major

Kiragakure: Kakashi and Iruka are sent to negotiate with the new Mizukage. Is this a chance for the underestimated Iruka to show his true skill?

Desert Fox: AU, started during the Pein Arc. With Konoha in shambles, Naruto resigns as a shinobi to hide himself from Akatsuki, taking up a new life with one of the desert roaming clans of Suna.

Current Stories:

Wandering Fox: As the Kyuubi Festival, Naruto leaves on a travel pass, not seen for several years- but who's this Wandering Fox character? On involuntary hiatus, lost my computer for the summer (technically I'm not even updating my profile, shhh.)

Reviews and Alerts: My writing ego is non-existent a majority of the time. Seriously, whenever I see a review/alert e-mail my first reaction is: blinkblink Wait someone actually read my stuff and likes it?! So whenever you review or alert, it makes me like I'm on top of the world.

Flamers: Flames are ignored. You might not like my work, however someone else might. Don't why they would, but they might. So I won't stop writing. The back button is usually located in the upper left corner of your screen- feel free to use it.
