I've been on fanfiction for nearly a decade, and it seemed like time for a change.

I'm twenty-two, I'm majoring in English with a certificate in Journalism at the University at Buffalo, and I've developed a slight obsession with twitter. There's something about saying whatever I want in 140 characters that I apparently get a kick out of.

Enough about me.

My fandom of choice is Arrow. Before that, I was pretty passionate about my Smallville ships. That's probably a pretty obvious given, looking at my stories. I ship a lot of different parings from the show, so I'm happy with nearly anything as long as its well written.

On that note: Pairings

Arrow

Felicity/Oliver: Chemistry, what can I say? Some have it, some don't and these two are just hemorrhaging it.

Thea/Tommy: Okay, so it's not happening. I know, and I get it but I can't let it go. However, it sure as hell had potential.

Thea/Roy: It's adorable, and I love it.

Laurel/Tommy: I don't know, I was iffy on them but they had something. Not quite a spark, but more like the burning embers of something that could have gone the distance. Really, that worked for me since she and Oliver have about as much chemistry as a sponge and water.

Smallville

Chloe/Clark: Okay, I know that as of Season 9 there was literally no way that it was ever going to happen. I'm still a sucker for it though, and especially like stories about them set during the high school years. Never mind the amazing chemistry that AM and TM have together.

Lois/Clark: (1) It's the canon, its fated, and they're destined for one another. (2) ED is so funny, I just love her as Lois. She and Clark are so fun to watch, and just to see together.

Chloe/Oliver: They've become a much more lucrative pairing recently, and I think its wonderful. They just have an adorable look to them. I know how the canon goes, and I say screw it. Chloe is more impressive than Black Canary anyways. Besides, Dianah and Oliver look like twins.

Oliver/Clark: Whether its friendship or slash, I'm in for anything involving these two. I'm still surprised that my TV doesn't blow up with that amount of sexy on the screen at once.

Tess/Oliver: These two require...something. I don't know. I spent all of season eight obsessing over how good they'd be together, and I can't quite let go of that. I'm stuck in this Chloe/Oliver/Tess love triangle and I don't like it. But I ship those two hard.

Oliver/Lois: Um. CHEMISTRY LIKE WHOA! Besides, this way I can have Oliver, Lois, Chloe, and Clark and everyone lives on happily. I think Lois really kept Oliver on his toes too.

I don't hate Lana Lang. Okay, that's a lie. I think that KK is adorable, and gorgeous and Lana was nice in the first few seasons, but I really did come to hate her. I don't ship her with anyone, because I prefer to deny her existence. I love Lex (and I have a mad crush on Michael Rosenbaum) but I don't particularly ship him with anyone-I do love Clex friendship fics, though. I'm also not a crazy Jimmy Olson fan. I maintain that if not for his existence in Season 5, Chlark would have had a fighting chance at least instead of another year of Clana moping. *saves rant for LJ*

It's fair to say that the Smallville fic is on an indefinite hiatus, should you be wondering.

Quotes:

"Compassion is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded. It’s a relationship between equals. Only when we know our own darkness well can we be present with the darkness of others. Compassion becomes real when we recognize our shared humanity." [Pema Chödrön]

"You know, I used to think the vigilante was a criminal, too. But, it seems to me he's willing to sacrifice an awful lot to help the people of city. That kind of makes him a hero, doesn't it?" [Felicity Smoak] Arrow.

"I don't even know how to get huffy, okay? I do happy, I do sad, and I do 'stop giving me the runaround bitch, or I will come for you" [LOIS LANE] Smallville
