oHARO~! As you have probably read my name is Ridia, but I use the name Mika. I am a Christian girl, living in Australia, and I have a Chinese background but I tend to blurt out random phrases in Japanese. I have been writing stories since I was nine, but writing fanfiction since I was eleven. I have been labeled: loud, hyperactive, spunky, cool, random, weird, happy-go-lucky, optimistic, 'another Selphie/Yuffie/Rikku/Rinoa', annoying, emotional, shy, artistic, a hippie, intelligent, a nerd, smart, strange, abnormal, cute, an 'environmentalist', funny and shy.
When I have time to myself, I am usually playing piano, reading/writing stories, daydreaming, zoning out, listening to music (especially Paramore!), drawing, surfing the net, chatting with friends, making graphics, playing game consoles, eating sugar, going hyper and bouncing off the walls (literally) and squeeing over Cloud and Tifa (or just Cloud, or just Tifa).

At the moment, I'm really into Final Fantasy. My favourite game is probably FFVII, and from FFVII my favourite character is undoubtedly Cloud Strife. (I shall not deny that Cloud did love Aerith at one point, but his real love lies with Tifa!) Apart from Cloud, some of my other favourite FF characters are Refia, Ingus, Cecil, Edge, Rosa, Rydia (Hey, she shares my name!), Terra, Tifa, Aerith, Yuffie, Rinoa, Squall, Selphie, Yuna, Rikku, Penelo, Ashe, Lightning, Stella, Noctis and many more! :D

» stories in progress
"Iris"
(AU, Cloud + Tifa)
Summary: "There is only one rule in this world - kill or be killed." Cloud Strife had to learn this the hard way.

"Untitled" - codename: Stigma
(Post AC, Cloud + Tifa)
Summary: Geostigma is back, but it's a different strain of the deadly virus and even Aerith's healing rain can't cure it.
Cloud will find it hits a little too close to home when Tifa is infected.
