So, about me... my age isn't all that important. Born and raised in Texas. I'm very artistic, drawing, and of course writing. I run around after my 3 year old with most of my time but I write when I have the time and energy. I love watching anime so my fics are mainly about that. The object of my current obsession is One Piece with a splash of Naruto and Fairytail here and there. I am an avid LuffyxNami and NarutoxSakura shipper. I find both Sauske and Hancock annoying and overstated. Hancock is just way too old for Luffy, not to mention, her little stalkerish infatuation is really annoying. And Sauske's just so cold and the way Sakura still falls over herself like a eager puppy even when she's supposed to be older and more mature in the Boruto continuation. I gag!

So forgive me if I either completely ignore their existence or somehow villify them in my stories.

-Top 6 Most Awesome Fics List-

1. Warped- NopeJustMe (One Piece)*
-For those people who cant stand nice boring little fics. This story has so many twists and turns in it you wont know if you're going or coming by the middle. Awesome plot. The detail is amazing. Grammer is good, a few little things here and there, but it's just nitpicking stuff. Slow to start but it really picks up by the 3rd chapter. A mindblowing interpretation on Alice in Wonderland has Nami (as the main character) trapped in a twisted world where things arent always what they seem. This is a place where reality and dreams mix and the Strawhat navigator has to fight her way through it in order to remember one very important thing- Her identity. Truely it becomes a question of 'Can she save her nakama and herself before everything is lost?'

2. The Vanity Princess- Confession68 (One Piece)*
-Okay, truthfully, most -if not- all of Con's fics are completely and utterly awesome. Each and every on could be on this list for some reason or another but I'll settle for just two. She has quite a story here...or two stories to be more precise. During a fight Luffy has a potentially life changing injury. One that could snuff out any chance of achieving his dream. To cheer him up, and keep him occupied while being incapacitated, Nami begins to read him a book. Through this alternate world can Luffy find solace in the company of his navigator? And will he be able to continue his dream?

3. One Hundred Days- Aaron Nowack (Naruto)*
-One of the absolute best Naruto fics I've ever read. Which is mainly why it's the only Naruto I have on here. Complicated doesnt begin to describe this story. There is a lot of bouncing back and forth between one thing and another. Quite a few OCs have been included along with plently of extra information about some character's rather ignored pasts. There really is too much going on to be able to accurately narrow it down for a correct summary. But, in a nutshell, this takes place the first few months of Naruto's training mission with Jiraiya. It covers their jorney into the surrounding countries and the problems they have there. However, it also covers the homefront. Sakura and her journey to become stronger leads her to some interesting places and some interesting information. All in all a great read for any Naruto fan.

4. Denial- Confession68 (One Piece)*
-Well, here we are again, back to Con. This is one of those twisty weird, dont trust your own senses, kinda stories. Though nothing like Warped. The overall plot is totally amazing. The details are nothing short of awesome. And, it will keep you guessing to the end. There's bouncing around here as well but it flows nicely. Once again there is a lot going on in this fic and I cant do it justice by a simple little summary but here goes anyway. While on an island something happens to change the crew's lives forever. Luffy and Nami are both in danger and it seems no one can help them. There's life, death, healing, forgetting, jealousy, heartbreak, and love.

5. Breaking Down- bossy (One Piece)*
-A really good type of fic if you're not interested in any romance or deeply sugary stuff. It focuses more on the deep friendship of the crew than any real mushy relationships. It's not one of the incredibly long fics but it does have a good length to it. You'd think the plot would be as simple as it sounds. Nami is lost overboard in a huge storm and the rest of the crew is desperate to find her. However, the twist comes when they finally do come upon the island she'd been washed up on. When the crew finds out what happened to their navigator, will they ever get her back to normal?

6. Nami vs. Hancock- foxchicka 17 (One Piece)*
-(Post Time-skip) Foxchika is one of those great authors that just has a way with words. Please dont be fooled by the title, it is not your average Hancock and Nami fic. The first 2 or 3 chapters are exceedingly simple but as the story progresses it becomes a much more involved adventure. The characterization is outstanding, everyone seems to be in character (though we havent seen much of everyone's new character yet) Even Hancock is written very well, there is acutally more to her personality than marrying Luffy, though it takes awhile to manifest. Written mainly from Nami's POV it deals a lot with the interaction she has with the Empress and her unrealized feelings for a certain Captain. When Nami is taken captive by a group of kidnappers, she isnt one to back down and play the damsel in distress. Meanwhile, the rest of the crew has to hightail it to the island in order to rescue her and a new friend's sister. What is Hancock really after anyway?

*Finished

Chosen fics are based on interest of plot, character portrayal, length, grammer/spelling, and my own personal judgment.
Trust me I did not go around choosing these fics randomly. I did take into account that not all of these stories are actually
finished and adjusted my choices to only include those that are likely to be continued. (hopefully)

REMEMBER WHEN

Getting HiGH meant swinging at a playground

The worst thing you could get from a boy was COOTIES

MOM or DAD was your hero

When your W0RST ENEMIES were your siblings

RACE issues were about who ran fastest

When WAR was a card game

When you could stay OUTSIDE past DARK without worry

When life was SIMPLE and care free

Remember when all you wanted to do WAS GROW UP?

A black man walks into a cafe one early morning and noticed that he was the only black man there. As he sat down, he noticed a white man behind him. The white man said, "Colored people are not allowed here." The black man turned around and stood up. He then said, "Listen sir...when I was born, I was BLACK. When I grew up, I was BLACK. When I'm sick, I'm BLACK. When I go in the sun, I'm BLACK. When I'm cold, I'm BLACK. When I die, I'll be BLACK. But you sir, when you're born, you're PINK When you grow up, you're WHITE When you're sick, you're GREEN When you go in the sun, you turn RED When you're cold, you turn BLUE, and when you die you turn PURPLE. And you have the nerve to call me colored?" The black man then sat back down, and the white man walked away ...

º۰•- HOMOPHOBIA IS WRONG -•۰º

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.
I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.
I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.
We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.
I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.
I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.
I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.
I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.
We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.
I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.
I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.
I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.
I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.
I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.
I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didn’t have to always deal with society hating me.
I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.
I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most: love.
