o-o-o-o-o-o

Shady-777 is back out of hiatus again! And this time, I am GOING to finish my Harry Potter fanfiction! Bear with me here, fine people!

Here are the pic-links I promised in "A Riddle In Time":

Cain Riddle ( Age 19)

Rich Reigner

Fen Severus and Tom

Wicca Riddle

Rodolphus Lestrange( Credit to Mad Carrot. My Rodolphus was inspired by hers, not the other way around. Carrot was nice enough to let me borrow his character design, so the one in my stories looks exactly as you see her portray him, only his personality is my own interpretation. If you like what you see here, check out the rest of Mad Carrot's awesome Harry Potter fanart!\

Okay, I am not really sure if these links are working ( FF Net insists they are, but I have my doubts ), so if you can't access the above pictures and would like to see them, shoot me a PM and I'll find a way to link you up with them. *Le sigh*...Fanfiction Net has changed a LOT in the 9 years since I have been a member, and I have to say that most of the changes have been for the worst. =( Linking used to work better, you used to be able to use curved and stylish quotation-marks in your stories instead of those ugly straight things, and the FF story-upload feature used to not freak out over special characters and extra spaces done for dramatic purposes and to help separate sections within a chapter. Uploading also used to be a lot more straightforward. They've really ruined it, they have. If any FF Head Hanchos out there happen to read this, I would pay money to access a version of the site the way it used to be, with less BS and a more user-friendly interface.

Member of This Site For: 9 years

Fandoms: Harry Potter, Hetalia, Final Fantasy VII and everything to do with it ( Crisis Core, Dirge of Cerberus, etc. ), Final Fantasy X, Batman ( mostly of the "Batman Begins" and "The Dark Knight" train ), Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Star Wars, Inglourious Basterds, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Angel. Occasionally, I will read from other sections, but those are the biggies.

Preferred Genres: Pretty much anything but romance. I'm okay with a little romance on the side, but I hate it when it's the focus of the story ( unless it's a oneshot or otherwise short story, in which case I may enjoy it provided it's well-written and not sappy or full of "soulmate" nonsense ).

Characters I Hate the Most ( in no particular order ): MARA JADE!! Hojo, Rinoa, Tifa Lockheart, Bellatrix Lestrange ( I know, I know, it's such a SHOCK, isn't it? ), Ginny Weasley ( She is a very flat character, and I hate how Rowling paired her with Harry even though the two have NO CHEMISTRY whatsoever [ the pairing felt very forced to me ]. ), Kennedy ( from Buffy ), Emperor Palpatine, Leon Kennedy, Andrew ( from Angel )

More About Me

I love both writing and reading fanfiction, and you'll know if I've read something of yours because I ALWAYS review, for better or for worse. I try to be fair and balanced in my reviews, highlighting both the author's strengths and weaknesses. My reviews are known for being longer and more in-depth than average. I tend to dish out a lot of constructive criticism.

I also love getting reviews, so if you've read something of mine, please, don't feel you have to hold your silence! I am not easily offended and love receiving input of any kind. Constructive criticism is welcome, and hey, a flame is a review! Not to say I will take your flame seriously, but I will definitely appreciate that something I wrote stirred enough emotion within you to merit action.

That's it for now, but keep checking back because I change my profile frequently and you never know what you'll find here! Also, I'd love it if you voted in my polls. (( nods)) Thanks for dropping by!
