I am currently in need of a beta and am too shy to ask previous betas of mine to help me out after being hiatus'd for so long. (And I don't particularly trust the beta reader system of FFnet's yet). If anyone wants to volunteer or something, showcase your beta'ing skillz by beta'ing 'Life Support' for me. PM me and I'll give you my email address. Brutally honest con crit is my goal- Please pick apart my conventions, style, voice, composition, characterization, whatever. Make me bleed.

Or, if you happen to know of an awesome beta that is willing to take on projects now, rec 'em for me and I'll hit them up.

If you try really hard, you can probably find my old shameless Saiyuki writing floating around the internets somewhere.

Otherwise, I mostly write in the Naruto fandom (Team 7/Kakashi Gen or SasuNaruSasu) with an odd Saiyuki Goku-centric oneshot thrown in, because he is just that badass.

Side Note: あたしは日本語の学生です。　And thus, I am easily ticked off by poor/random/fangirl usage of Japanese in fics. Easily.

July 1st, 2009

The reason I never post anything ever:

Virtues- Sasuke and Naruto- centric

Ninja-verse/In Progress

Current Chapter- 2/7

Words/Pages- ~52,000/179

Won't be posted until it's complete. (Translation: Don't hold your breath.)

About Me

Anime/Manga: Naruto, Saiyuki, Death Note. Yes, that's it.

And I can't handle 'shoujo' manga. Many have tried and many have failed, but I just can't do it. I always get ticked off at girls in manga, so it makes sense that when a series revolves around girls, my patience is not-so-slowly chipped away (as it is, Naruto-girls are the only ones that don't piss me off, namely post-timeskip!Sakura, Temari and, of course, Naruko). I am willing to give most 'shounen' manga a shot, but nothing besides the aforementioned have ever stuck.

Fanfiction:

Naruto: Team 7(.1) Gen, Humor, SasuNaruSasu (friendship or romance) and rare NaruSaku. I don't read the uber-angst or dark!fic (unless it's really original). And ItaSasu... I will admit that I can see the appeal, but no. I won't touch it with a ten-foot pole. And KakaSasu? WTF is wrong with you people, anyway? Ew.

Saiyuki: As long as Goku/Seiten Taisei is a main charactor and isn't made out to be a complete bimbo (cuz he's not) then I'm open to it. And if it even implies Gojyo/Sanzo, I throw up in my mouth a little.

Death Note: I am such a sucker for plotty L-centric stories... and I hate Light with something of a passion (granted, I have read ~5 or so fics that were L/Light/L that blew my mind).

Johnnys (JE) (not on FFnet, sadly): Arashi Gen (mostly Jun-centric), SakuMoto (Matsumoto Jun and Sakurai Sho), JinDa (Akanishi Jin and Ueda Tatsuya), Jun/Jin (Akanishi Jin and Matsumoto Jun), Akame (Akanishi Jin and Kamenashi Kazuya), MatsuMiya (Ninomiya Kazunari and Matsumoto Jun). I don't know why I have so many Jin pairings, because I really don't like him beyond his voice (and what a voice!). And poor MatsuJun: I am an avid bottom!Jun fan.

Nobuta wo Produce: Shuuji to Akira (friendship or romance). Because it's a heartwarming ending to a heartwarming series. WATCH IT NOW.
