Konichiwa! Namae wa Avoria-desu!

Nihongo o hanashimasu ka?

No? Oh, well, too bad. I speak it! (A little...). But I can still say that I speak it!

Seriously, two years of French classes, and I walk away being able to say "I don't know" and "That wasn't so bad!" With half a year of sneaking around watching J-Doramas and reading "Conversational Japanese for Dummies" and I can have meaningful conversations (short, to be sure, but still meaningful).

Anyway, if you need a Beta, I'll gladly do it. Unless it's for a songfic. You make me do a song fic, and there will be blood. And it won't be mine. After the blood, I'll feed what's left to my guppies of doom!

And yet, I'll jump at the chance to do any kind of shredding... I mean, checking people's stories over. It's what I do when I get bored and the plot bunnies are on strike, or when I've run out of new books to read. You'd be amazed at how many professionally published writers and books seem to have never entered the grasping hands of an editor... Sad, really.

I have some other stories on mediaminer.org, if you want to look at them.

And visit my friends amateratsu and loveisamysterybutwhy (I can't remember OR SPELL the rest of amaterasu's name). They don't write Inuyasha, and one has an unholy obsession with Yugioh GX... If you like that show, have fun, go ahead! Amateratsu has a really funny Bleach story, though. She loves the short guy.
