Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page eighteen, and read line four.
"If you like winter and snow, you'll love this sled!"

What is on the walls of the room you're in?
Pictures of me. And my siblings too, I guess.

Seen anything weird lately?
Pictures of me. And my siblings too, I guess.

Tell me something about you that most people don't know.
At night, I have to check my closet for creepers. And I'm sixteen.

If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt and politics, what would you do?
Free compassion for everyone! That should solve a few major problems.

Does your name make any interesting anagrams?
A Shamble Jeez Nothing On. That's disconcerting.

Anyway...

I'm a pretty young thing who likes writing very much. Although I slave over an original novel every so often, most of the time I find myself abandoning my OCs for attractive men from movies...hence fanfiction. But it's not so bad; I get to improve my writing and hold out my little felt hat for praise. Living the dream.

I tend to cling close to my oneshots and no I don't have commitment issues how dare you suggest such a thing. If I could stick with a multi-chappy I would. But I can't seem to let go of the silly idea that I have better things to do with my time. I don't read or write slash, but if that's your cup of tea I won't dump it on your lap. I don't swear either; if you could try and keep it clean too I would very much appreciate it.

Stalk me on Tumblr, since I have a disappointing dearth of followers. http://fuzzymarvelblanket.tumblr.com/ Lots of Avengers, Tom Hiddleston, Robert Downey Jr., Jeremy Renner, and other fun things you can't find anywhere but Tumblr.

Now for a snappy ending...I would sing and dance for you but that wouldn't go over well.

Show me a hero, and I'll write you a tragedy.
--F. Scott Fitzgerald


1. Turncoat » reviews
Natasha Romanoff is tired of America, of SHIELD, of being a team player. She has never kept a position this long, and she's uncomfortable. So when a Russian crime gang expresses their desire to eliminate the new superweapon called the Avengers, she agrees to help them. Because she doesn't make friends, she doesn't keep alliances, and she doesn't care. Or so she tells herself.

2. You Know I Do reviews
Inspired by Natasha's response to Clint's question-does she know what it's like to be unmade? To have someone take her brain and play? How could he forget? Kind of given up on updates, I'm really sorry. More Clintasha fics in store, but I'm just not feeling this one. Rated because assassins kill people. Reviews are incredible.

Steve gets called out on a special mission he doesn't think he's qualified for. Kind of pre-Avengers, more during Avengers, not quite sure. Just read and enjoy that's all. Rated for glass in feet.

9. My Mind Rebels at the Future » reviews
This is a collection of relatively random interactions between Sherlock Holmes and very ordinary things from the future...present. His future. So obviously it takes place in the now, not the then. Oh goodness, just read it.

10. Inadequacy reviews
Bertie is called upon to address the House of Lords and it goes badly, leaving him devastated beyond Elizabeth's attempts at comforting him. In other words, a shining example of how much Bertie hates himself vs. how much Liz loves him. Vaguely pre-Logue.

17. A Walk in the Park reviews
That's right, it's another Watson-returns-to-Baker-Street fic! Hopefully it's a little bit original. I promise much angst and arguing. No slash, and one sentence of slightly suicidal content. Rated a little high just for that.
