Update: Sunday, March 16th, 2008 - Hoping to return very shortly to the world of fanfiction... after all I've got a story to finish here! (And at least 3 more to go!) At the latest, I'll be writing again in spring break (2 weeks from now), but it could possibly be before then as I've got a three-day weekend coming up here, and the break starts at exactly 2:30 PM next Thursday :)
"And love is gonna save you when I'm gone,
And I'll watch over you, and I will give you strength
When you're not strong.
Who'll watch over you, when I've gone away?
Snow is on the ground: winter's come;
You long to hear my voice,
But I'm long gone..."
(from "Watch Over You" by Alter Bridge)
Favorite Quotes:
"A ship's not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails - that's what a ship needs. But what a ship is, what the Black Pearl really is, is freedom." ~ Captain Jack Sparrow, Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl
"One word, love: curiosity. You long for freedom. You long to do what you want to do because you want it. To act on selfish impulse. You want to see what it's like. One day, you wont be able to resist." ~ Captain Jack Sparrow, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest
"If you choose to lock your heart away, you'll lose it for certain." ~ Captain Jack Sparrow, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End
"I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come when the courage of men fails, and we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship - but it is not this day. An hour of wolves and shattered shields, when the age of men comes crashing down - but it is not this day. This day we fight!" ~ Aragorn Elessar, Lord of the Rings: Return of the King
"All human activity lies within the artist's scope." ~ Geoffrey Chaucer, A Knight's Tale
"It's how you look at buccaneers that makes us bad or good, and I see us as members of a noble brotherhood!" ~ Long John Silver, Muppet Treasure Island
"What's the sound of the world out there? (What, Mr. Todd? What, Mr. Todd? What is that sound?) Those crunching noises pervading the air... (Yes, Mr. Todd, yes, Mr. Todd - yes, all around) It's man devouring man, my dear, and who are we to deny it in here?" ~ Sweeney Todd & Mrs. Lovett (Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street; from the song "A Little Priest")
"If there's nothing you're willing to die for, what the hell are you living for?" ~ my English teacher, Mr. Menasche :)

Websites: My main website is a PotC/Jack Sparrow fansite, called Liar's Dice (http://liars-dice.blogspot.com). I also have profiles on DeviantArt (http://robin-sparrow.deviantart.com/), Xanga (http://www.xanga.com/robin_sparrow), and MySpace (http://myspace.com/lady_robin_sparrow). Mind you, hardly any of these are ever updated, and your best chance of seeing them updated is during the summer.
