Hi everyone. I want to give thanks to my friend, Zephyrus, for introducing me to anime in the first place AND introducing me to this website! I love to write, but often have long periods of writer's block. Woe is me. I have so many ideas, but not enough time to do everything. So, I hope you like the stories that I have so far!

Quote from Zephyrus: "Instead of terrorizing the house to keep me entertained, I can now reek my destruction on paper." (Imagine evil laughter in the background to get the full effect.)

Note: I have one highly important subject to address in the following statements: Mary-Sues suck! They shouldn't exist (unless they're being bashed) in stories! Keep to the characters that are actually in the anime! Or, if you insist on using your own characters, don't make them perfect!

Some anime quotes: (I can't say favorite because I know I've heard others that I forgot to write down. Also, some may not be the exact quote.)

"Kurama’s rose whip must be ten feet long. Where does he stash it? All the ways I can think of sound kind of painful . . ." -Kuwabara to Hiei about Kurama (YYH)

"Too bad Hiei's not here. We could use his Jagan eye to find himself." -Botan (YYH) (I just about fell over in my chair when I watched that episode. That was the funniest thing ever.)

"You're a team player, a save the day super hero...I hate people like you." -Hiei to Yusuke (YYH)

"I know you have to fight. But if you die, I swear I'll kill you. Bang." -Keiko to Yusuke (YYH)

"You're cheating, Kaitou. He never came close to saying hot! Ahh..ooh... I goofed!" -Botan (YYH)

"If you had used that lump three feet above your aXs, you might have held onto your soul. Make that two feet for you (Hiei)." -Genkai (YYH)

"No matter how dark the night, the morning always comes." -Lulu (Final Fantasy X)

"You're just saying that! 'Cause you're nothin' but a couple of chickens! Posing as alchemist when you're just a cowardly pipsqueak and his walking trashcan!" -Claus (FMA)

"Kurama, there is no one who does not carry scars on his heart. If there were someone in the world like that, he would be a shallow soul." -Hiei (YYH)

"I don't know what you're trying to pull, but I'm not into this kinky stuff. And you're way too old!" -Yusuke to Genkai (YYH)

"Must've rubbed off on me, dimwit. I died like you: half-assed." -Genkai to Yusuke (YYH)

"Fine! You heard fox boy! There's nothing we can do for the old hag if she's already limp. Just gotta keep on truckin', yessir! I'm gonna go outside and make myself a nice, big, shiny, first place medal, sit in the sun, and have a stupendous, friggin' day, damnit!" -Yusuke (YYH) (I love the way he said this! It was so funny!)

"I thought I was crazy, Urameshi, but ye take th' cake fer tha'!Thehell was tha'?Ye don' make bombs go BOOM in yer face!" -Jin to Yusuke (YYH)

"It's just you and me now. Well, you and you and you and you and you and you and you me." -Yusuke to Sensui (YYH)

"Sir, if he were my dog he'd respond when I called." -Keiko about Yusuke (YYH)

"Stamp? Sure! Stamp? Sure! Approval? Sure! Appeal? Sure! Come back from the dead? Why not?" -Koenma (YYH)

Scene from Full Metal Alchemist-Episode 10:(I thought this was hilarious because it reminds me of me and needles. And, just because it's another one of Ed's weaknesses.)

Doctor: Well, it looks like a little bit of food poisoning, that's all.

Al: It's not from eating too much?

Ed: Oh, shut up.

Doctor: We'll need to give you an injection. Clara?

Ed and Al: Injection?...

Doctor: Yeah, just a little poke.

Ed: Ah! Get away from me! (tries to run from room, but is grabbed by Al) I don't need it!

Al: (drags him back) It's just a little needle. (we now have view of only a wall) It won't even hurt any!

Ed: I feel better! I'm cured!

Al: Don't be a baby. Take off your coat.

Ed: I hate you, Al. Why do you want to sell out your own brother? You're evil!

Al: (watery voice) You don't mean that...

Ed: I'll turn you all into fish!

Scene from Full Metal Alchemist-Episode 15: (Right after Scar escapes.)

Havoc: The classic sewer escape.

Roy: Don't follow him.

Havoc: Damnit, I was about to jump in.

Hughes: Nice mess! Is it over yet?

Roy: You know, you could try to help while you're here, Hughes.

Hughes: Lay off. I'm as normal as they come, and this is a contest of freaks. What do you want me to do? Fire my slingshot at him?

For those of you who were reading Walking With You, it has been deleted. Forgive me, I beg of you. I had completely forgotten the direction I was going with it, and had no inspiration to continue it. I feel like I just killed one ofmy children (if I had any). So, my fellow reviewers, I hope you enjoyed it while it was there. I'm sorry.
