Author has written 10 stories for Invader Zim, and Transformers/Beast Wars.

Still no avatar... :P I'll make myself one eventually. I draw as much, and I'd like to hesitantly say as good also, as I write. So maybe once I get a laptop I might even get a DA for fanart. Right now I'm limited to an iPod. All my stories at the point I'm writing this, have been typed up in my iPod's notes, actually. That's why I rarely use italics or boldening, I use caps there instead, so if you see caps, it might mean shouting, but it might also just mean to emphasize a word. Sorry about that.

School is keeping me very busy. I'm sorry. I'm aware I've been gone for months. Basically all the fics here are pretty darn old in my mind, and I'd like to re-write them completely or at least edit as my writing skills have much improved by now. I'll have to see.

Story updates;

I've been writting my continuing stories in a rotation, with a few one-shots popping up in between them, and now I've come around to Prisoner of Nightmares, however I was side-tracked trying to work on a different version/rewrite of My Tallest. That story absolutely must go on hiatus and I'll probably be giving it some serious edits and deleting the last or last two chapters. It's no longer fun to write. It's just frustrating me. Until I'm less confused with it, I'll just be experimenting, trying to figure it out. Prisoner of Nightmares though, is still going well, as is Reality Problems, though I may delete the last chapter in that too, because... It was dumb and I don't know what I was thinking or what's even going on there anymore.

Good news though! And perhaps something to make up for lack of submissions; someone I met here and I will call Athen, and I, have been doing several ZADR roleplays; detailed paragraph ones not a script style, though I've done those too aside from this. And these roleplays have been going strong for over a year and have hundreds of pages worth of posts in the site it's done on. We plan to possibly edit it into a story form and post it up, but until then you can message either me or Athen and we can give you a link to the unedited role-play perhaps.

I've been meaning to get accounts on here and DA for a while. Guess this's one down then? Yep, guess so... Still don't have a DA, at least not that I submit things to.

Well, given the context of this site, I suppose the most important thing's you'll want to know about me would be what I'm into as far as fandom goes. I've got a few things really, I suppose Death Note, Portal, Transformers, Homestuck, and possibly How to Train Your Dragon would be the easiest to list off. Kingdom Hearts is a new big fav and I really liked the movie 9, and know a tiny bit about Assassin's Creed. But right now, and for a long time, it's been invader Zim. IZ has been my favorite for years. As far as what you can expect me to write, Invader Zim. And, adding to that, I like ZADR. Immensely. You'll see tons of that from me. At the moment, I'm kinda doubting if you'll see anything else, like, ever. XD ZADR is the most interesting pairing I've found in a long time, and open to so many possibilities, not to mention AU's...

Yes, I LOVE to role-play, but I'm a bit picky about who I rp with and what the rp is about. I'm used to higher literate, detailed, paragraph rps and I really wont rp with OCs unless I know you and said OC very well. Feel free to shoot me a pm though. I'm freindly, and would be happy to work something out. EDIT!!!; CURRENTLY NOT OPEN FOR ROLEPLAYING! I'M ALREADY IN ALMOST TOO MANY COUNTING BOTH FAN AND NON-FAN ONES...

What story elements do I like? I like angst, to all degrees, if you can type something with enough emotional pull to actually get me to cry, in my opinion, whatever it is, is good. At least well written. Humor also, I love, and same as crying, I don't laugh easy with written stories. It takes something well written. I enjoy emotion pull, and attention to details, getting inside a character's head and examining their past and mind and feelings; how their history affects their personality and decisions, detailed and realistic fan-theory, cause and effect, realistic thought and emotional patterns signature to specific characters because that's how they've learned to think because of how their lives go- that intrigues me. Psychology mostly.

I'm a writter of about five years or so, having taken a class or two in novel-style writting, but I always accept politely, respectfully worded constructive criticism- in fact I highly encourage it. Please do review, or shoot me a pm.

If you don't like a pairing, I couldn't care less. It gives you no reason to act like an animal and lose your ability for normal, civil speech. Screaming like someone with anger and self control issues, never got anyone anywhere.

I speak English. I'm learning Spanish, but I kinda doubt I could carry on a particularly detailed conversation with it... Sorry about that.

I hope you enjoy what I have to offer! I think that's all for now. Good day!
