If you fit any of these descriptions and qualities, please stop reading now, and do not try to offend me; I acknowledge my own flaws, and know that one of my strengths is winning arguments (especially against members of the above categories), so you would be wasting our time. Most Importantly, Favorite Pairings!: (for yaoi/yuri pairings, dominant is listed first; for het pairings, order doesn't matter) anyone and everyonexHaruhi Fujioka, Haruhi FujiokaxTamaki Suoh, Haruhi SuzumiyaxHaruhi Fujioka, any Haruhi Fujioka noncon, Yuki CrossxZero Kiryu, Ichiru KiryuxZero Kiryu noncon, Ichiru KiryuxYuki Cross, any Yuki Cross noncon, DantexNero, DantexLady, any Nero noncon, Misaki AyuzawaxTakumi Usui, any Misaki Ayuzawa noncon, Vincent ValentinexYuffie Kisaragi, Riff RaffitxCain Hargreaves, SoraxKairi, RikuxSora, I know there are more, but I can't think of them. I know it looks like a long list, but I'm surprisingly picky about my pairings. It's quite short for how many fandoms I have, and any other pairings within those fandoms won't even catch my eye (unless they're well written crackfics, of course). Other Random Stuff: I've been to 2 Katsucons (going as Yuffie Kisaragi in her Dirge of Cerberus costume and Zero Kiryu in theCross Academy uniform) and am going to my first Otakon this summer (as Heather Mason in Silent Hill 3). I'm very excited about going to the 2nd largest convention in America soon! If you're going and you share some interests, get in touch with me and we can meet up! I would love to go to Anime Expo, but it's across the country and very expensive. I also hope to get into Game Designers Conference either next year or the year after, but that's even more expensive than AX (by far), so I don't know as of now (even though that one would be good for my chosen career). If you live around my area (which you would know by the location names mentioned in my Occupation and Habits) and have a similar interest, fiction request, or question, just try to get in touch with me and I might just respond! Thanks! |
