01/18/13 : Spring semester has started. While I have fewer credits to take, things are still going to be interesting.

Umm, hello there. I am ayamari no Goshi, but it's okay to call me 'Goshi' for short.

...*awkward silence*... *fidget*...

In a way, I guess you can call me a ghost on this site. While I do occassionally post stories, I tend to have very little interaction with different authors. The main reason comes from a lack of time. I'm in school for pharmacy and have a job; between those two things, I barely get time to relax some days. The second comes from a hesitance to review. A review is (normally) one of the nicest things you can do... but due to the fact I often give both praise and constructive criticism, I've gotten some nasty responces in return which really makes me not want to review again.

Oh, I'm not entirely sure why you would... but it's okay to PM me if you're curious about anything. It can sometimes take me a while to respond, but I will do my best.

And before I forget... my avatar image is from a doujinshi. I lay no claim to it, no matter how good Mirai-kun looks in it!

I. about me

Let's see, is there anything interesting about me?

- My nationality is American, and I am of European heritage. No, I don't have blonde hair and blue eyes like the stereotypes say. They would be dark brown and hazel, respectively.

- Gender: girl, though I don't tend to dress all that feminine... and I get mistaken for a boy on a semi-regular basis.

- Surprisingly, I'm currently in college studying pharmacy (who would have guessed?).

-I dislike hardcore romance. Seriously, I can't stand the stuff. The brief mention and suggestion of it is usually about all I can take. And I will not read Yaoi/Yuri fics.

- I am obsessed with Dragonballz, especially Mirai no Trunks. There is nothing that can be done to fix that nor do I want that to happen.

- Going along with the statement above, I am an 'Otaku'. Meaning that not only do I collect anime-related items and watch anime, I go to anime conventions. Currently, I go to about 3 per year.

- Rock music is one of the greatest creations of the world! Seether, Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, Linkin Park, Stone Sour, and Led Zepplin are among my favorite bands.

-Fears: needles (shots), clowns, and crowds

- I've had 2 near-death experiences. Once when I was 5 (all I'm going to say is I'm accident prone) and then in November 2011. It seems to be a necessity if you are a member of my family...

-I have been bitten by the travel bug!!!! So far, I've been to Italy, France, Greece, Britian, and Japan!! (I stopped in Switzerland, Germany and Canada, but I don't really count those since I saw the airports and a little of the surrounding areas) And I'm going to Ireland in May.

-I collect bladed weapons. I currently have 23...? I should probably go check again... And, I now own a bow. XD

- I've met Vic Monogna ((Broly, Edward Elric(FMA) )), Aaron Dismuke ((Alphonse Elric(FMA) )), Kyle Herbert ((dbz's narrator, adult Gohan, Kiba(Naruto), Aizen(Bleach) )), Mike McFarland ((Master Roshi, Yajerobi)), Travis Willingham (Roy Mustang), and a few others

-It's better not to bring up politics with me. I'm a constitutionalist (right wing) and, although I do love a good debate, I would rather stay away from the topic.

-AND I COSPLAY!! (hopefully these work now... I've been having trouble...)
Android_17_(Juunanagou) ((that's not my room by the way))
Nara_Shikamaru
Roy_Mustang ->completely homemade outfit
Light_Yagami
Olette
Maya_Fey
Mirai_no_Trunks -> I am so proud of this costume!!!!
Yuffie

...and I have a Sayaoran from Tsubasa cosplay too... now I just gotta find a good picture.
...I also cosplayed as Xion from Kingdom hearts 365/2 days (personally, I don't think I did a good job with this one.
...and I was the protagonist (aka Seta Souji and Narukami Yu) from Persona 4. I have a love/hate relationship with this costume.

-> Please note that if I'm with people, they're most likely good friends of mine. I tend to cosplay as part of a group.
-> Also, if you see a wooden weapon, it was homemade. I go all out for making my costumes!!
-> General theme, I make a better boy than girl.

GIANT COSPLAYS!!

Hughes!!

More to come in time... .

If you're on Gaiaonline, you can find me there. My username is Son Goshi-kun.

And, I'm also on deviantart. ayamari_no_goshi. Same username, yeah, I know. Some of the pictures from my trips as well as some cosplay and sketches are on there as well.

II. OC background info (underconstruction)

...I might just be doing this for myself... but oh well, right? (more will come as they appear)

1. Son Goshi (http://ayamari-no-goshi.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2s22kd)

-Goshi was created in the summer of '01 (if I'm remembering correctly) and under a different name as the self-insertion of an eleven-year-old girl with a hyper-active imagination. Since that time, my fanfiction has been re-written at least five different times, and her character has changed and developed each time. Because of that, she has become her own separate entity.

She is more masculine in appearance, but not all girls look like their mothers or the models you see in magazines. Many do take after their fathers. Besides, do you really think that someone like Vegeta would let someone who looks like a Barbie fight with him? I really doubt it.

Also, she is not a clone, nor was designed to be. And she's not all-powerful. That's Goku's job!! She's going no higher than SSJ2.

2. Reishi

-Reishi is based off of my best friend in real life. She first appears in the second incarnation of my fanfic, which was written... drawn, actually... when I was in 8th grade ('03-'04). Since then, she has appeared in every following version.

At first she is seen to be shallow and bossy (a member of the 'in crowd'), but does eventually change. In fact, the way her relationship with Goshi develops is very similar to how the relationship of me and my friend developed. As of now, I am unsure as to how big her role will be, since I'm still deciding certain things about later chapters.

III. DBZ AGES ACCORDING TO THE MANGA((I'm doing this so when people read my fanfic, they can understandwhere I got some of my ages instead of fighting with me.))

We'll start with Goku:

-Beginning of db/
first tournament: 12
-2nd tournament: 15
-3rd tournament: 18
-beginning of dbz: 23
-when the saiyans arrive: 24 (if he wouldn't have died)
-Namek: 24 ((see note))
-Trunks' first appearance: 25
-when the androids first appear: 28
-Buu: 35 (if he wouldn't have died)
-end of dbz: 45
-GT: 53-56 ((see note))

1. If you remember correctly, the saiyans appeared months earlier than they should have, causing the journey to Namek to occur within the same year
2. GT was never very precise with identifing ages. Goku's age there is only a guesstimate as there is no announced time gap to use.

Gohan

-beginning of dbz: 4
-sayians arrive: 5
-Namek: 5
-Trunks' arrival: 6
-Cell Games: 9 ((see note))
-Buu: 16
-end of dbz: 26
-GT: 34-37

1. Apparently the year spent in the hyperbolic time chamber/ the room of spirit and time does not have an effect on the age of a character. It is specifically mentioned in the manga that Gohan is 16 when he enters high school.

Goten

Buu: 7
end of dbz: 17
GT: 25-28

Pan

end of dbz: 4
GT: 12-15

Krillin/Kuririn

-Beginning of db/
first tournament: 13
-2nd tournament: 16
-3rd tournament: 19
-beginning of dbz: 24
-when the saiyans arrive: 25
-Namek: 25
-Trunks' first appearance: 26
-when the androids first appear: 29
-Buu: 36
-end of dbz: 46
-GT: 54-57

Bulma

-beginning of db/
first tournament: 16
-2nd tournament: 19
-3rd tournament: 22
-beginning of dbz: 27
-when the saiyans arrive: 28
-Namek: 28
-Trunks' first appearance: 29
-androids appear: 32
-Buu: 39
-end of dbz: 49
-GT: 57-60

Mirai no Trunks

-when Gohan is killed in his time: 14
-first appearance in the main timeline: 17 ((see note))
-andriods appear: 20
-when Cell is killed in his time line: 23 ((see note))

1. Yes, Mirai is actually a year older in the manga that he is in the anime (was fixed in kai). I don't know why... it's one of those weird dubbing things...
2. This is something a lot of people have missed. Mirai killed the Cell from his time three years after he got back home after the Cell Games.

Trunks (from the current time)

-when the androids appear: 1
-Buu: 8
-end of dbz: 18
-GT: 26-29

No one else in the manga is given specific ages, causing the rest to be generalized... I have no control over that.

IV. Favorite song right now:
Fur_Cue
By Seether
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkjxEhfGTq0

lyrics:

It’s all too revealing
Your words are deceiving
I can’t let you get in my way
I sense all your actions are meant as distractions
You must know I won’t play your game
Fake, you’re more than I can take
And something’s gonna break
Get out of my head
No shame, you’re passing all the blame
And nothing’s gonna change
Get out of my head

You made me realize that it’s all a lie
And it comes as no surprise
Stay for a while
Stay ‘cause you make me smile
There’s no compromise

I’m sick of pretending
The thoughts are unending
I can’t let you get in my way (there’s no way home)
I’m no longer bending
My mind set is mending
And now I have something to say (deny me)
Fake, you’re more than I can take
And something’s gonna break
Get out of my head
No shame, you’re passing all the blame
And something’s gonna change
Get out of my head

You made me realize that it’s all a lie
And it comes as no surprise
Stay for a while
Stay ‘cause you make me smile
There’s no compromise

Fake, you’re more than I can take
And something’s gonna break
Get out of my head
Shame, you’re passing all the blame
And nothing’s gonna change
Get out of my head

You made me realize that it’s all a lie
And it comes as no surprise
Stay for a while
Stay ‘cause you make me smile
I see no compromise

Stay for a while
Stay ‘cause you make me smile
I see no compromise
Stay for a while
Stay ‘cause you make me smile
There’s no compromise
