Tama Saga? Tama is a character from Hayate the Combat Butler. Saga is a character from A Little Snow Fairy Sugar. Put together with the right amount of liberal interpretation, and you get an Amusing Tiger's Heroic Exploits. Quirky, adventurous, and it fits Shun and I quite well.

I'm Ming and that's Shun. We're a team. I write, she reads. And that's the extent of our partnership. Anything else fanfic related, such as reading or reviewing other stories, I take care of since Shun generally doesn't care much for fanfiction.

I write for the past, when story writers cared less about grabbing a large audience. Instead, they wrote short (not epic) stories to show their love of a series. And I'm going to do my best to show that these writers still exist.

I believe that that stories should be simple but fun to read. I also believe that no matter how much we've seen, there's always some way to make it different. I write for myself, but I am willing to post it to an audience for their opinion. Please, make your thoughts known and I will do my best to accomodate your wishes.

I know that I haven't updated in a while. But I have good news, I plan out most of my stories before I write them. If you want to know what happens, please let me know. Don't forget to tell me whether you want hints or spoilers.

My Ideals?
Hmm, I'm lawfully aligned. I refuse to write stories that appeal to the baser of human emotions (sex, murder,...).
I'm very simple. I don't write stories that require you to think much.
I love mysteries. I don't reveal everything in the very first chapter.
I think. You'll find that AU really means AU in my story. No changing names and events slightly, but full-blown twilight zone alternate perspective.
I believe in friendship. Consequently, I don't focus on two lovers as the protagonists. I focus on 6 good friends instead.
I respect the series. My stories may appear to be different, but if you look closely, you'll find lots of rules from canon still apply. Yeah, I'm talking to you Yaoi writers.

I've been wanting to write a fanfic where one of my anime series has mecha for combat. It just sounds fun, doesn't it?

I like Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Adventure, Xover, AU stories.

I have four things that I am good at:
1. Taking something that's been done before and shooting it from a cannon. It becomes...a star!
2. Science and Technology.
3. Knowing what's been overdone and skirting it.
4. Making a story from strange things. If I wanted to, I could create a BELIEVABLE yaoi story.

My writing suffers from two flaws.
1. Dialogue
2. Descriptive Details

My favorite pairings:
RanmaxShampoo, RanmaxKasumi, RanmaxHotaru, RanmaxMinako.
NarutoxHanabi, NarutoxTayuya, NarutoxSakura, NarutoxTenten.
Conan x Ai.
Aang x Toph

I think Yaoi is despicable (dirt cheap single-ply toilet paper choking the life out of every section they invade), Ranma and Akane absolutely do not go together, and NarutoxHinata stories are doubtful.

I've been wanting to change my word processor to AbiWord. It loads fast, and it has a large easy to view interface. Unfortunately, it doesn't use smart quotes.

Affiliations:
Stories w/ ThINK - Member (Division: Project Unreality Branch.) (Shun is in the Tester's Branch.)
Stories w/ ThINK divisions:
- The Project Unreality Branch is responsible for the development of stories with innovative styles and designs. This branch's mission is to develop new ways to write. An additional mission is to find ways to work around limitations of the fanfiction.net website.
- The Core Realities Branch is responsible for writing stories that use tried and true styles. Less innovative, but solid, this branch's mission is to find ways to write that flow nicely without sacrificing storytelling. An additional mission is to discover methods of obtaining reviews without resorting to polls.
- The Story Research Branch is responsible for combing through hours and hours of anime and manga for new ideas. This branch does not write stories per se, but the ideas and plot bunnies that they record are invaluable.
- The Tester's Branch is responsible for quality control. An important division in and of itself, the job is often outsourced so that the testers will not feel burdened by their jobs. Before it's outsourced, the beta readers get first pick.

The Fanfiction Forum - Neutral (Some of the best authors are on this forum. I'm too lazy to find it though.)
Fukufics - Hostile - I refuse to be associated with this forum and I will defend my name viciously if the two ever appear in the same sentence.
Perfect Lionheart - Hostile - Professes to hate Sasuke and is the most Sasuke-like person that I've ever seen. I'd find it funny...if I wasn't so similar to Hinata. The thing is, when he receives a complaint, he throws a hissy fit. His stories suffer afterwards. Not the readers, or the writer. The stories. Stupid emo.

6. Naruto the Combat Butler » reviews
It takes something special to make Naruto a butler. Okay, several special things. First thing that's needed is a master who is rich, female, and way younger than he is. Okay, not really. But this is an AU with Hayate the Combat Butler elements.

7. The Trials of Uzumaki Naruto, Girl » reviews
Things are different after the battle of the Valley of End. On one hand, we still have Konoha's Number One Unpredictable Ninja. On the other hand, he, no she has become one very predictable girl. Warning: Rampant WTH humor and no real pairing, yet.

10. The One Without a Planet, Sailor Ranko » reviews
A SM xover that's less like SM and more like Magical Girl Pretty Sammy or Cardcaptor Sakura. Follow Ranko's entry into the magical girl world with plenty of bad guys, and good, to beat up. This is not your average crossover.

23. Water and Snoozing Fox Make? reviews
Oneshot. Kyuubi might be powerful and really smart, but even it has its moments. While this isn't quite as good as catching the giant fox singing under a waterfall, it would still deny that this happened. Warning: Main humor from bad words
