I'm a linguist by day and a musician by night. I don't have much time anymore to write fic, but when I do write it, I post here. Once upon a time, I commanded FFX-2's Gippal's voice with the greatest of ease -- now that command is infrequent and shakier, but I'm afraid that his voice is what I'm known for the best around here. =)

Enjoy the stories. If you leave me a review, chances are I'll stop by and leave one for you too.
