I don't just like things. I either love them to the point of obsession/addiction, or I outright hate them, and failing that, I simply don't care. A friend of mine was taking a random browse around the supermarket with me a while back, and we bought a card that said, 'I looked far and wide to get you a really awesome birthday present...but you are just so freaking weird that I didn't know what to get you!'

She later considered giving me the card on my birthday, but said that it wasn't quite true, since I was 'so freaking weird' that she knew exactly what to get me. Because I am obsessed with everything I like. Hence, the reason these fanfics exist. I'm primarily a reader, but when I ran out of Ghost Hunt fics to read, I rediscovered an abandoned talent for writing out of sheer desperation.

There are times when I won't update for long periods of time, but inspiration is a fickle beast, and rest assured that unless something truly tragic happens, my stories will all be completed at some point. Once I start something, I finish it.

For those of you who might be interested, I have several AMV's on www.animemusicvideos.org under the name 'mayu79', also available on youtube under the name 'mayurei'.

'Doll Parts' is my latest amv, made as per request by fanfic author, MadnessinmyMethod, with the anime of Skip Beat! and the song 'Doll Parts' by Hole. (I hope you enjoy it!)

'Somebody Help Me' was made using the Project Zero (aka. Fatal Frame) game series 1-4, using the song 'Somebody Help Me' by Full Blown Rose. The games both terrify and fascinate me, so it took a bit of courage to make this amv. I am so bad at dealing with scary things, but I just love the games, and had to make this.

'Into the Flow' features Final Fantasy X and X-2, along with Kingdom Hearts I and II, with the song 'Flow' by Transister. May be re-vamped at some stage - it was a 24 hour job, and most of mine take at least a week's worth of free time (mainly due to the time it takes to wade through all the footage).

'Ghost Hunt: The Parody Medley' is without a doubt my best Ghost Hunt amv. It's hilarious, even if I do say so myself. Includes the Trapdoor theme, 'The Doom Song' from Invader Zim, lines from Ghost Busters, Men in Black, the BBC series of The Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Danny Phantom and Shrek, along with "I've got a Theory" from the musical episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Weird Al's "You Don't Love Me Anymore", the Can Can, and a line about tea from Carl Barron's stand up comedy.

'Naru vs. Mai' is also done to Ghost Hunt, with Linkin Park's 'Hit the Floor'. (The lyrics just worked too well for me to resist.)

(no longer on youtube, but sill available on animemusicvideos.org)

'Duet of the Freaks' is an ode to Kyouhei and Sunako from Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge (aka. Wallflower, or Perfect Girl Evolution) done to Weezer's 'Freak Me Out'.

'Angry White People' is done to Kodomo no Omocha (aka Child's Toy, or Kodocha) with Weird Al Yankovic's 'Angry White Boy Polka'. It's probably the best amv I've made so far, with the possible exception of the Ghost Hunt parody medley. I love them all, so it's hard to choose. It won Fan Favourite at AI-Con 2009, and came third in the comedy section! I'm the first local to ever win any of their amv prizes :)

'I'll Haunt You' is to Ghost Hunt using the song 'Haunt You Everyday', by Weezer.

'What's in a Name?' is to Cardcaptor Sakura using the song 'Lee' by Tenacious D.

'Dilandau's Love-letter' is to Escaflowne using the Tina Arena song 'Burn' (the pitch has been lowered slightly, but the song's speed is still the same).

I simply wish to share my unique brand of insanity with the rest of the world. Enjoy!
