Author has written 10 stories for Golden Sun, Legend of Zelda, and Gurren Lagann.

Name: Yuja or Catz, or whatever else, really
Age: Age? What's that? Just pass the sugar! ...Okay, okay, I'm 7, with 14 years of experience (21, if you can't add)
e-mail: Don't bother. I don't check often enough, spambots are a pain in the tail, and I'm crappy when it comes to responding. XP

AIM: IF YOU IM ME, BE AT LEAST A LITTLE COURTEOUS AND TELL ME WHERE YOU GOT MY SCREENNAME FROM!! Seriously, I've been known to block people who refuse to tell me, because for all I know, they're some sicko spammer 3 IMs from trying to link me to some porn site. smudgeandsara. That's it. Just please be sure to tell me you're from FF.N, so I don't get weirded out from the get-go. =P

And yes, I am a girl. =P

Fave and least fave GS pairings? Don't know, don't care. I don't usually read stories based only on whether there's a certain pairing in it or not. But, if there is a pairing included, it could be as random as a Wise One pairing for all I care, so long as the writer gives enough to support it. That even includes shonen and shojo-ai (NOT yaoi or yuri, because that's usually the explicit R rated stuff, and doesn't even belong on this site). Sorry, but unless you're writing a comedy, the Wise One ain't gonna fall head-over-heels for the first blonde chick to be sucked into the GS world. Although, if anyone seriously wrote something like that, without intending it to be comedy... Ewwww! x.X Other than that, the only pairing type I won't read is incest. Don't worry, no flames coming from this direction. I know where my web browser's back button is. ;-)

Story Status
+ The New Kid 2 -- What. Was. I. THINKING?! D= Might be taken down for rewriting in near future.
+ Star of Venus -- Will either end within the next few chapters, or will put the Energizer Bunny to shame when it keeps going, and going, and going, and going, and going, and...
+ Fear's Injustice -- 2 chapters and the epilogue left, but as is tradition, I'm procrastinating the ending it like no tomorrow.
+ Once Upon A Golden Sun -- Pretty handy for practice, and keeps my profile from being swamped with oneshots. Updated whenever.
+ GS 0: Precursor -- Extremely slow moving, even after rewriting the next chapter 3 times already.
+ Michi -- Discontinued. I don't know what I was thinking with that one.

Fave Movie: Finding Forrester
Fave Games: Golden Sun (duh), Sims, Europa 1400: The Guild, LoZ: Minish Cap, and the series of Myst games (except #5: End of Ages; the only Myst-like quality it really kept was traveling between worlds)
Fave Manga: Dragon Knights
Fave anime: I'll get back to you on that one

Quote Collection! 8D

"No thinking. That comes later. You must write your first draft with your heart. You rewrite with your head. The first key to writing is... to write. Not to think." -- W. Forrester, Finding Forrester

"There's a fine line between genius and insanity." -- Unkown
"...and I just tripped over it." -- me

"Hey Shippo. Your village called. They're missing their idiot." -- Inuyasha

"Yugi lost to some nobody, and that nobody wasn't me?" -- Seto Kaiba, Yu-Gi-Oh!

"It came. It purred. It conquered." -- Unknown

"Dogs have owners. Cats have staff" -- Unknown

"Growing old is mandatory. Growing up is optional." -- Unknown (one of the motto's I practically live by)

"No man should have to bury his son." -- Theoden, Lord of the Rings

"Just as courage imperils life, fear protects it." -- Leonardo da Vinci

"Fear and insecurity are signs of a strong heart." -- Jack Skellington, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories

"You do ill if you praise, but worse if you censure, what you do not understand." -- Leonardo da Vinci

Dax: Ehh... We won't find anymore of that dark goey eco stuff, will we? 'Cause I'd hate to fall in again and turn into you!
Samos: Get in there!! Before I turn you both into ferns!
-- Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy

G.T. Blitz: That's studio debating 101, baby. Oh yeah! You just got schooled!
Pecker: Birds do not school, they flock. So, flock off! (blurred circle covers Pecker's raised hand/wing on the TV)
-- Jak X: Combat Racing

Me: So, if a woman were to enter a drag race... would that make her a 'drag queen?'
Dad: (channelsurfing between NASCAR and drag racing) Do you think these things up ahead of time, or just make them up as you go?
Me: Eh, spur of the moment mostly. Chocolate and candy helps, though.

Me: (munching on chocolate candies Grandma bought) Okay, I'd better stop eating these. I'm gonna be hyper.
Dad: What are you talking about? You're already giggling.
Grandma: I read there wasn't really anything to that. Chocolate doesn't make people hyper.
Me: (giggling at pretty much every little thing that moves... or doesn't move; even the sleeping cat is funny at this point)
Dad: (looks at me, then to Grandma) ...You sure about that?

Grandma: You know, there's a book up in my room on viruses if you want to-
Me: Ummm... I'd rather not. I got squeamish just trying to read "Hot Zone" for biology class.
Grandma: You really should read about these things. It's good to be informed.
Me: Viruses. Are. Bad. See? I'm informed.
(By the way, "Hot Zone" is about the ebola virus, a nasty virus that basically causes a person to rot from the inside out. Seriously. Not pretty.)

Dad: (cutting mold off cheese instead of tossing it) If it doesn't kill you-
Me: -it'll just make you wish it did.

Bad guy's helper: Surrender now, or face a most horrible death.
(Soldier next to bad guy is wiped out by a catapult attack)
Ajax: We surrendeeeeeer... Move a little closer!
-- cutscene from Age of Mythology

"THAT'S the SPIRIT!"
-- Roy, Bladerunner (you'd have to see the movie to know what's so great about that line)

Jack: I think I'm going crazy.
Locke: You're not crazy.
Jack: How do you know?
Locke: Because crazy people don't know they're crazy.
-- Lost, Season 1 (I'll look up which episode eventually)

Joker: (takes Yamiko's book) And I'll be borrowing this.
Yomiko: Awwww. But I haven't even read it yet!
Joker:You'll get it back when this is over.
Yomiko: (whiny sigh) When will that be?
Joker: When the world ceases to be in peril.
Yomiko: Can I at least read it on the way?!
-- Read or Die OVA 1

OK. That should do it. n_n;

Enjoy the writings! Don't like it? Don't read it. Or, if you don't like something, or feel that something in a story doesn't fit right, be a pal and POLITELY tell me what needs improvement in your opinion. Feel free to point out any typos you find. I can't try to improve if I can't see my mistakes. :) Pointless "u suk" flames will be laughed at and then ignored, because the flamer must really be in need of a new hobby.

Like... drawing. Or... playing the Sims. Or weaving's good. Just find some cardboard and yarn/string, and you can have yourself a makeshift loom ready in about 5 minutes. Yup yup.

New News

June 2, 2009 -- GOLDEN SUN 3!! GOLDEN SUN THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

June 5, 2009 -- ... GOLDEN SUN THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!Need I say anything more? XD

I'm esctatic and beyond words, and I'll look up the proper spelling for all that later! Well, maybe not "beyond words", since I can't seem to stop babbling on and on about it since finding out from UberSpoonz. X3 The official poster art is already set as my desktop wallpaper, and I'm already contemplating if I want to preorder the game while in cosplay... Probably won't, since I'll be buying it from the same place where I work.
