Current Projects:
Heart Under Siege- My first KH fully M-rated fic. Where I let my more sadistic side out really. It's a historical AU and it's my other baby. Pairings: Cleon, Soriku, AkuRoku.
NOTE: I cannot be bothered to fight people who keep having a go at me for characterisation (or my apparent lack of it) in this. From now on, any comments I made in Author's Notes in one or two chapters concerning it are now null and void. HUS has moments of OOC.

Bright Eyes- Coming back to Rated PG-T, and also putting Axel and Roxas centre stage. Not gonna give details about what it is just yet, but I've been researching the topic as best as I could. I really don't want this one to end up as a flop. COMING SOON.

Ever After- I've been working on this for a while, but I'm uncertain if I'm going to put it up here or not (it'll most likely end up on livejournal if not anywhere else). It's set in the same universe as Heart Under Siege, only it takes place 3000 years later (so a lot has changed) and the roles are reversed (you'll know what I mean). LOOK OUT FOR IT AFTER HEART UNDER SIEGE FINISHES.

On Hold/Hiatus:
None at this moment in time.

Currently Plotting Away in the Chasm of my Mind:
A few one-shots:
The Taste of a Kiss- It's a collection of one shots that I'm writing together from time to time. You can pretty much guess what the subject's gonna be about. TBD

Discontinued Indefinitely:
Magnetic Attraction- an Akuroku story that also concetrates on other pairings. I'm very sorry, but I cannot write for this anymore. Please Please PLEASE don't ask me to update it, otherwise I will take it down (and I have no backups of the first fourteen chapters). The problem is that, even though it will always be my first baby, and my first yaoi story, it felt like a chore and the plot was dwindling down to absolute ludicrosity (if that's even a word). Not only that, I was like fourteen-fifteen when I started writing it. My mind as a fourteen year old has matured a bit from then (as well as my writing style). To write a chapter for it now, no matter how much I wanted to, would seem forced and out of place, and ruin the reader's enjoyment. Again, please don't ask me to update it. I may, in the future, think about re-doing it altogether, but its very unlikely.

My Fave Games:
Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2
Legend of Zelda
StarFox Assault
MARIO!! (all games are genius)

My Fave anime:
Gakeun Heaven
Gravitation
Well, I pretty much watch only shonen-ai or yaoi anime. Though the only exception to this rule is those prodomiantly hetero anime that contains yaoi and/or shonen-ai i.e. Ouran High Host Club.
Another exception to this rule is Love Hina, mostly because I love Tama-chan and I always get a giggle from Keitaro getting pummeled violently into next year.

My Fave Manga:
Gravitation
Model
Kill Me Kiss Me
Demon Diary
Love Hina (see above)
Gorgeous Carat
Loveless
Anything done by Haruka Minami (she's got a beautiful drawing style) or Nanao Bohra (also very beautiful) or You Higuri (for obvious reasons)

Favourite Pairings:
AkuRoku/Soriku/Cleon/Zemyx/ShuichiYuki/KeitaNiwa/KeitaKazuki

Fave Quotes:
-"Think you can handle this many?"
"Well, if one more shows up, it might be hard."
"Then that'll be the one I'll take care of."
"What? You're fighting?" - Cloud and Leon dialogue in KH2 (absolutely brilliant to take the mick out of)

-"Lu-kun!" - Moi when I see my Polish friend. Everyone else is either (insert shortened name)-kun or (insert shortened name)-chan

-"Tell him fine, there's no way I'm dying before you do, you morally bankrupt Colonel with a God complex." - Edward Elric, FullMetal Alchemist (anime version. Manga version I have not got)

-Day forty-two.
Demyx stumbled into work sixteen minutes late and blearily made his way to his chair. Zexion hid a smirk behind the curtain of dark hair falling over his face and inclined his head slightly towards the dazed blond. “You’re late again.”
Demyx blinked at him. “Wha?”
“I said, you’re late,” Zexion murmured, his fingers resuming their motion on the keyboard. “Sixteen minutes.”
“Oh,” Demyx said blankly. “Oh. Yeah. Sorry.” And then: “I didn’t have sex last night.”
I know, Zexion smirked internally. I slept eight entire hours without once being woken up. Aloud, he said, “And you think I care, why?”
“I…I don’t.” Demyx said. He looked so confused it was almost cute. “My cousin. And my roommate. They’re monsters. Beasts. They’re going to bring about Ragnarok. Armageddon. The end of the world. She skipped work yesterday. They haven’t left her room in forty-eight hours. He never fucked me like that,” he muttered petulantly.
Zexion bowed his head and pressed his fingers to his lips. Underneath his palm, his mouth stretched into a triumphant grin. “So, no sex?”
Demyx groaned, thumping his head against the counter. “Oh, God.” - Shout! by Dualism

-"Oh it wasn't just me. If you want to thank the grand architect of this look to your left" (Barbossa, Elizabeth and Jack look to their left)- POTC3

There is more but I need to refer to them again. I have the memory of a funnel lol

Things I like:
my pets (who wouldn't, cats and dogs are cute)
chocolate (i'm a sucker for mars bars and celebrations)
good stories in the romance, fantasy or action genre
my laptop : )
video games
MY BIRTHDAY!
and my friends

Things I hate most:
tomatoes (urk)
diets (gulp...)
bombs (no surprise there since things have been happening)
dull stories of any genre
little sister pestering and not leaving me alone (Most used quote: get out of my room!)
and people who are extremists in their hatred for a pairing/game/race/etc. (I can think of a few...but I won't name them)

The People I Am Inspired By:
Agatha Christie (Poiroit Series, Ms. Marple Mysteries (and I stick firm to the belief that David Suchet will never be topped on his performance as Poiroit)
Homer (The Odyssey, The Iliad)
Virgil (The Aeneid)
Jane Austen (Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Northanger Abbey, etc)

Here is the link to my deviantart page: http://angellady.deviantart.com/
And the link to my comic if you so wish to look at it's crappiness: http://www.smackjeeves.com/comicprofile.php?id=44073 (come for the story, not for the general artwork...really...)
LiveJournal: http://rosa-angelicus.livejournal.com/ Here, I've mostly written reviews of the games I played so far this year (those that are new to the market that is. Twilight Princess and Super Mario Galaxy don't really need a review from me)

Call me weird, but I only just found out that my absolute favourite bishie in Gakuen Heaven (that being Taki Shunsuke) is voiced by the same person who does DEMYX!! Suzumura Kenichi WE LUBBS YOU! We also like Sakurai Takahiro because he voices Endo Kazuki AND Cloud Strife for KH and the Final Fantasy 7 compilation! Hooray for Wikipedia!

HOMOPHOBIA IS WRONG! IF YOU BELIEVE THIS, COPY THIS INTO YOUR PROFILE! HOMOPHOBIA MUST BE STOPPED!

I was very bored when I did this, and I couldn't sleep:

THE KH SURVEY

(Please copy and paste this onto your profile and answer the questions! Spread the KH fever!)

SECTION ONE: The "Favorite" Questions

1. Your favorite KH guy?

Hmm, well, for the sake of probably being able to relate to him the most, probably Sora (though Roxas comes in close second)

2. Your favorite KH girl?

Kairi. But only when she's fourteen because she's such a kickass tomboy. In KH2 (when she's fifteen) she bugged the hell outta me. It changed to be a tossup between Namine (shy-and-sweet) and Larxene (butt-kicking-ass-whipping-chick)

3. Your least favorite KH guy? Why?

Ansem the Wise. Unfortunately I know his voice actor, Christopher Lee, as Salumon the White, and he made me LOATHE the character even more than I did when I read the Lord of the Rings. That doesn't mean I hate him.

4. Your least favorite KH girl? Why?

Olette. It's her voice actor. And the fact that orange is my least favourite colour

5. Favorite World? (Includes both KH1 and KH2)

Tough one. KH1 I liked Halloween Town the most, mostly because I was staring at the sheer awesomeness of Sora's Halloween attire and the fact that Jack Skellington was part of the team. KH2 however, Timeless River won me over. I'm a sucker for old-fashioned cartoons XD

On a side note, Port Royal was quite close to taking pole position in KH2. CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW!

6. Least Favorite World?

Without a doubt its Atlantica. The controls were really iffy in KH1 (so much so that I just did the healing and let Ariel and Goofy do the bashing) and the KH2 version of Atlantica was just a bunch of minigames even though they FIXED the controls. ARRRRRGHHHHH!

7. Favorite Weapon? (Includes both KH1 and KH2)

For Keyblades, I liked Sleeping Lion the most (since Squall/Leon is my fave FF character outside of KH, and Leo is my star sign, hence I like lions :) ). However, I am afraid Demyx's sitar takes the biscuit, for the sheer reason THAT HE KEEPS PWNING ME WITH IT!! DX And they say he's not a strong fighter

8. Least Favorite Weapon?

Without a shadow of a doubt it will be Xemnas "lightsabres". Seriously, couldn't have Squeenix put a leetle more thought into his weapons (and I'm surprise George Lucas or whoever hasn't claimed copyright of the idea of lightsabre O_O )

9. Fav. Summon? (includes both KH1 and KH2)

Again, it's a tough one. I like Genie since he was easy to control, but I also like Bambi because he gives you nice orbs and munny and magic bubbles, but I also like Mushu because he was (literally) a blast to use, but I also like Tinkerbell because she saved my ass in the Maleficent Dragon Boss Fight, but I also like Stitch because he's cute but I also like...(etc etc etc)

Honestly, it's easier to tell you the ones I didn't like. Two: Chicken Little and Simba (I did not understand how the hell I was supposed to use them effectively!!)

10. Fav. Form? (aka. Sora's Forms)

Probably Master Form. It's fun being able to have the benefits of Valor form while still being able to use magic.

11. Favorite Pairing? (includes yaoi coupling) Why?

Really? What about yuri couplings? Do they not count? XD

Yaoi: OK, I like -takes deep breath- (and please note that I put uke's name's first for the sake of ease in same sex couples) Cloud/Leon, Leon/Cloud, Roxas/Axel, Riku/Sora, Sora/Riku (go figure), Zexion/Demyx, Demyx/Axel, to a degree Axel/Demyx (I like Demyx as the sort of "puppy" seme), Sora/Roxas/Sora, Zexion/Roxas (heh heh teenage kicks) and Saix/Xemnas

Hetero: The list is a little bit shorter here. I like Sora/Kairi (but only the KH1 world I'm afraid), Roxas/Namine, Marluxia/Larxene (but let's be honest; Larxene would be wearing the pants, wouldn't she), Cloud/Aerith, Leon/Aerith, Cloud/Tifa and...well, that's it really (woman seem to be a rare species in the KH world...)

Yuri: And this is probably even shorter! I like Aerith/Tifa, Namine/Kairi, and...-blink- I'm afraid that's it. The problem with Larxene is that she'd probably MAIM her vic- lover.

And Olette I just hate. I don't even want to pair her up with Fuu. (As for Xion, the new character, I don't really know much about her yet to decide)

12. Least Fav. Pairing? (includes yaoi couples) Why?

I am open to all possibilities. However, I kinda find it hard to imagine some of the real baddy-baddies being with the really goody-goodies (i.e. Xemnas and Sora will never EVER be entering my mind. Nu huh. No way)

13. Any cool crack pairings you've heard of? List 'em.

Well, for the simple reason that Zack doesn't even APPEAR in the KH series, I'd say that the pairing of Zack/Cloud/Leon (with the uke in the middle) is pretty cool (heck, it's my OT3)

Actually, tbh, the most crackiest-crack pairing is the Zemyx pairing. So crack, in fact, its cannon.

14. Weirdest Pairing(s) You've Ever Heard Of?

Hmm...-thinks- I'm open-minded, but a pairing only seems weird to me if there's no logical explanation as to why two characters gel together

15. Any "Kh-pet-peeves" you have?

I hate it when people make Axel to be some crazy goofball. I just want to scream "HE IS A PYROMANIAC, SLIGHTLY KAMIKAZE ASSASSIN IN DISGUISE WHO WILL KILL MEMBERS OF HIS OWN ORGANIZATION IN ORDER TO GET THE JOB DONE! ARGH!" Though, again, this is only in stories when character development is null and void.

I hate it when Roxas is made out to be some emo. OK, he does have an emo-tastic theme tune, and he does seem to philosophize or ponder a little too much for his own good, but he is, in essence, still a part of Sora, who is (to be perfectly honest) a goofball at best (with moments of maturity and immaturity)

I grumble a little bit at Xion. Yes, I know I said that I don't really know her so I can't really judge, but you have to agree that she is a Mary Sue. Maybe the first ACTUAL Mary Sue Squeenix has ever made. She is probably, and I quote from one artist from deviantart, 'the sueiest Sue that ever Sued'. God, I am going to sound like a hypocrite...-has written characters that were bordering on Mary-Suedom-

I also hate hate HATE Kairi's sudden change of personality in KH2. Where was all that fire from KH1?! Where was that tomboy that I knew she was deep down?! Where was the girl that would cry out "Sora you lazybum!!"?! WHERE WHERE WHERE?! -head meets desk- I also didn't like the fact that they gave her a very girly Keyblade. How on earth was that ABOMINATION supposed to strike terror and fear in the absent hearts of the enemy?!

Oh yeah, and the Atlantica levels irked me. The controls were iffy in KH1, they fixed them but didn't even bother to put them into practice in KH2 (I mean, what was the point of having the Dolphin Kick if one was contained in that valley?)

16. Fav. Partner in KH? (includes both KH1 and KH2)

It's a toss-up. It's between Ariel (because she saved my life many a time in Atlantica) and Beast (because he just plain RULES)

SECTION TWO: Do you believe it, or not believe it?

17. Do you believe in the Xemnas/Saix theory!

I don't know what the Xemnas/Saix theory is, but they deserve each other. So yes.

18. Do you believe that Zexion is emo?

No. I think he's more of an intellectual recluse who (like Demyx) is probably more suited to reconnaissance work than getting into an actual brawl

19. Do you believe that Marluxia is gay?

Even though I pair him up with Larxene (and sometimes Vexen if I can work the nerve too), I do think he's gay (or very very camp)

20. Do you believe that Kairi is the most annoying character in KH?

In KH2, A Thousand Times Yes

SECTION THREE: Answer Yourself!

21. If Roxas had to choose either Namine or Olette, who would you root for? Why?

Namine. I hate Olette.

22. What's your theory on KH: Birth by Sleep?

OK -deep breath-

I know people are saying that Terra, Xehanort's heartless and Xemnas are all one in the same but I find it a little difficult to believe. While I understand that Terra can get "Heartless Eyes" and his hairstyle is more or less the same as the Heartless and Nobody versions of Xehanort, the fact remains is that Terra's skin would have had to have darken considerably to even take on the name Xehanort. In a flashback in KH2, Xehanort the Apprentice had dark skin.

So what I say is that Master Xehanort's Dark Keyblade Wielder (for now, let's call him Zero) could have, possibly, been cloned from Master Xehanort AND Terra, since Zero and Terra seem to have the same build as each other (so maybe, actually, Zero is a Terra Replica, since the outfit Zero wears is identical to the one Riku (at a point) and Riku Replica wear). And thus, "Xehanort" the Apprentice, Xehanort's Heartless and Xemnas came to be later down the line.

I know that Ven's identity is going to play a big part in Birth by Sleep, but so far, from what I've seen, I'm not sure what it could be. And Aqua, there's not much on her either. I'm praying that she isn't going to be some damsel character.

23. Was Chain of Memories a waste of time?

No opinion. I never played the game. For the story, the plot was intriguing.

24. If you had the choice of meeting ONE (and ONLY ONE!) KH character, who would it be?

Probably Demyx. I'd feel more comfortable around him XD

25. Which KH character do you relate to the most? Why?

Probably a mixture of Sora and Roxas. I am hyper at most, and a bit of a random goofball, but I do have my moments where I calm down and think (I've got to XD)

26. What's the most embarrassing moment that ever happened to you that had something to do with KH?

My brother had said some rather rude comment during a Sephiroth battle, about his "ass-poker" of a weapon. My mom and grandma came into the room at that point. Chaos ensued.

27. Have you ever cosplayed as a KH character? If so, who? If not, who would you like to cosplay as?

I'm getting a Squall/Leon cosplay together, but it'll most likely be his Dissidia costume. The KH character I'd like to cosplay the most would be Roxas or Zexion. I'd rather buy the organization cloak though (and if possible not in leather. I find it uncomfortable)

28. The Funniest Moment in all of KH would be...?

1."Silence, Traitor!" I was like DOUBLE-YOO-TEE-EFF DEMYX?! WHAT HAPPENED?!
2. Sora getting dressed by fairies -got a good snicker out of that-

29. The Hardest Enemy/Boss was...?

Sephiroth. I have still not yet defeated him. Though Xehanort's Heartless without the assistance of Goofy and Donald was pretty hard.

30. What was a good edition in KH2 that made it oh-so-addictive?

13 Characters in the Organization, and addition of other major characters, Sora finally getting fashionable, the chance to have Riku as a team member, New Worlds (especially Port Royal, Beasts Castle and Timeless River), Minnie and her pwnsome Faith attack, the fact that you didn't have to run gauntlets in order to get to other worlds in the gummi ship multiple times unless you had the warp ability, Captain Jack Sparrow, the fact that there seemed more boys and girls and thus becoming a yaoi gold mine...I think that's about it

SECTION FOUR: Decisions, Decisions...

Note: You MUST only choose one! "Both" or "Neither" in unacceptable!!

31. Hayner or Pence?

Hayner

32. Zexion or Marluxia?

Zexion

33. Riku or Roxas?

Tough, but Roxas

34. Roxas or Sora?

Grah, why do you mock me?! Roxas

35. Axel or Demyx?

Axel

36. Kairi or Larxene?

Larxene (Kairi is half and half unfortunately)

37. AkuRoku or SoRiku?

AkuRoku. It's hot.

38. Namixas or Namiku?

Namixas.

39. Zemyx or AkuRoku?

AkuRoku (I love Zemyx, but I found AkuRoku first)

40. SoKai or SoRiku?

Sorry Kairi. SoRiku

41.Sea Salt Ice Cream or Paopu Fruit?

Paopu Fruit (though a friend told me Sea Salt Ice Cream does taste nice)

42. Cloud or Leon

Leon. I like men who have a sense of responsibility. Besides, I've found that I can comfortably write him in any way possible O_O weird

43. CloTi of Clerith?

CloTi. Tifa was Cloud's first crush after all XD

44. Simple and Clean or Passion?

Passion. Best Theme Song Ever

SECTION FIVE: The Last Section!!

45. List all the KH character you've fallen for. (This includes Final Fantasy charcter as well)

Sora (he'll always be a sweetie), Roxas (because he is cute), Leon (I like responsible men XD), Cloud (I only really got to know him better though in FF7), Riku (it was eventual, like most romantic relationships), Axel (Quinton Flynn, you made me a very very happy girl with the death scene), Demyx (though you freaked me out with your sudden burst of bipolarity) and Zexion (who I wish I got to know more about, you recluse). Namine eventually grew on me, but I ended up liking Larxene for the fact she wasn't going to take any nonsense and let anyone else boss her around. Kairi, however, I will only ever like her KH1 personality.

46. What crossovers would you like to see with KH?

I'd like to see some more FF crossovers (FF12 more since it was the first proper FF game I bought for the PS2) but I would love it if KH was crossed over with some of Square Enix's other ventures such as the Mana Series, The World Ends with You and so on

47. Does anyone in KH look like another character? List 'em all!

Roxas and Sora (duh), Kairi and Namine and Xion (treble duh) and for the love of the freaking lord of games AXEL IS PRACTICALLY THE CARBON CLONE OF RENO!! XD

48. Which new KH game can you abosolutely NOT wait for?

Birth by Sleep and 358/2 Days. I'm saving up for the PSP just to get Birth By Sleep (and Crisis Cora...and a few DVDs)

49. Do you like KH1 or KH2 better? Why?

KH2. It had better graphics, the characters had matured (some more unwelcoming than others), new worlds were open and a majority of the characters that make the Kingdom Hearts universe were introduced.

50. LAST QUESTION! What makes Kingdom Hearts one of the best games in the world!?

See Answer 30. And also because it just is (until FF13 and FFVersus13 comes out XD)

Plus, it's scientifically proven to be good for the heart, soul and gall bladder.

December 7, 23:41 GMT (otherwise known as "it's nearly midnight in London foolz!")

I just had a small epiphany. Or at least, I'm up now because my new flatmate has decided to be a prick in his drunken state and bring some friends over while some of us are trying to sleep. Pfft, men. The only time they're perfect is when they're in a game, an anime, a book/manga/comic, a tv show/film of sorts or bonking each other in a fandom. Or at least, that's my experience with them (and even then I sometimes despair of them). Anyway, epiphany epiphany...

The epiphany is mostly about where is my writing going post-Heart Under Siege. I'm torn; I love writing stuff for Kingdom Hearts (seriously, its like candy for my soul) but I know that I want to strike it out on my own too and actually write something that belongs entirely to me. But I ain't that confident. I mean, I've had the characters for such a long time now, but actually putting their story down onto paper is so much more difficult than I managed (I think the beauty of fanfiction is that you can use already created characters and you just have to worry about the plotline and if you've got the characterisation right. Plus, you know their stories already; all you can do is either edit them or add to them). I think the other issue is that I'm trying (and failing) to write out a story with a hetero couple. I'm half tempted to change the girl back into a boy like he originally was and make it yet another yaoi. Urgh, but my damn pride is refusing to let me...why was I born under Leo...

Fanfiction wise though...I think we're pretty much OK now. My love for the Roccoco period has been reignited after seeing a Japanese chapter of Black Knight that has (I believe) yet to be translated by Blu, and made me rethink a little bit about which period to make the not-exactly-a-sequel to HUS will be (will it be in the Roccoco/Napoleonic Period as planned originally, or will it be in the far future...I don't know yet). I also reintroduced myself to some of the classical pieces that I fell in love with last year (Chopin in particular) which fuelled up another series that I'm planning to write up at some point (with slight influence from the awesome J-Drama Nodame Cantibal (if I even spelt that right)).

Hmm, and all this and I still have three essays to write, Christmas shopping to do, Christmas, New Year (with a special friend coming over all the way from America) and then back to uni for more dealings with America, novels and poets that died of either consumption, drug overdoses or by freak accident (I'm looking at you Percy Bysshe Shelley, you horrible horrible Byran-wannabe)
