Note: Think of Lord Cynic and Mashu as the devil and angel counterparts of the person behind the account. They are not physically two different people, they're personae the moron is hiding behind to justify his weird fanfiction.

Note: Be wary of having us on Author Alert. We're no longer known to have one main media (which used to be Golden Sun). We'll tell you what we can be bothered to write about:

Naruto

Golden Sun

Tales of Symphonia

Fruits Basket

Chrno Crusade

2x2 Shinobuden?

Azumanga Daioh?

Suikoden V

Busou Renkin

Lord Cynic: "Fudge me, thanks to my crappy webbuilding techniques you no longer have a stone wall of typing to go through! Actually... you still do. Eh. The website with the majority of my previous info is . Whew, took long enough!"

Website update: 09/05/08 (Updated Couples page)

Note to all readers and reviewers: "As of now, I won't be lenient when demands are made for updates to my stories. Fanfiction writing is not a paying job, it is a hobby. I don't have the obligation to set deadlines and always be expected to follow them. I know I procrastinate a lot, but for Christ's sake, I'm not the only one. Lay off a bit, or despite my current status, I will be taking deliberate breaks. That is all."

Lord Cynic and Anime: He is not picky when it comes to dubbing or subbing. The way he looks at it: Dubbing is good for when he's busy (i..e., writing) and can't pay attention to the subtitles, otherwise he'll almost always watch subbed anime. However, the loser doesn't know what's good dubbing or bad dubbing...

General fanfiction information

Genre preferences: Drama; angst; (perverted) humour (Cynic); Humour; romance (Mashu); Action/Adventure (both)

Fanfiction style: Extremely lazy - both of them. Mashu dominates the written portfolio with fluff after fluff after fluff. Cynic occasionally chimes in with a more thoughtful, depressed or dramatic entry.

Reading preferences: Dark themes, angst (Cynic); fluff... fluff... fluff... (Mashu)

Reading turn-offs: Not telling the pairing in the summary (Mashu likes to know what he's getting into as quickly as possible); harems (usually/especially involving the OTPs); grammatical and spelling nightmares; turning monogamy stories into harems/poligomy stories midway through.

Use of Cynic's fanfics is permitted, as long as:

1. You ask him first.

2. You give him at least some credit.

3. You give him the 4-1-1 on the site you're going to post his stories on.

(Cynic refuse to place this at the beginning of every fanfic, so just take his word for it, okay?)
