![]() Author has written 6 stories for Harry Potter. Salutations, and thank you for taking the time to visit my humble profile. Update: I now have a live journal account: my user name is lumennox. There isn't much on there... A bit about myself (literally): I aspire to one day publish my own work (if I ever get it done). I stay in South Africa, so please forgive me if I get any mannerisms wrong. A few things you should know... I always start a story on the M rating because I know myself too well. If I [ever] finish a story and the characters behaved themselves I’ll change the rating. Because the voices in my head are temperamental and ignore me for months at a time I tend to upload haphazardly, so please forgive me if it takes me ages to upload. About the fics I read/write... I enjoy AU series a lot but tend to shy away from fics that re-write the entire canon story. I hate that Fred, Tonks, Remus and Sirius died in Harry Potter, but unless they’re main characters in my stories they’ll rest in peace. Things That'll Totally Turn Me Off A Fic: MPreg (just no. I don't care how, just NO!) Gender-bending Atrocious Grammar (I have often left reviews telling authors to find a Beta) Inexcusable Spelling Books/Series I find myself constantly re-reading (and have/will probably write about)... Harry Potter – J.K Rowling (My friends keep telling me I know far too much about it) Skulduggery Pleasant – Derek Landy (My best friend and boyfriend are convinced that if he were real I’d marry him. My dad agrees. Skul, not Derek.) The Darren Shan Saga – Darren Shan The Demonata Saga – Darren Shan And Many More... Books/Series I enjoy (but probably won’t write about)... The Twilight Saga – Stephanie Meyer (I’m not a freak about it but someone’s gotten stick up for the books. The movies should be incinerated) The Dark is Rising Series – S Cooper Song in the Silence – Elizabeth Kerner The Inheritance Cycle – Christopher Paolini The Last Apprentice (The Spook’s... Series) – Joseph Delaney And many more... Authors I wish I could meet... Stephen King (I have multiple copies of many of his books but refuse to get rid of them...) Anne Rice J.R.R Tolkein (I admire the way he created an entire world, language, etc) Jeffery Deaver Dean Koontz Dan Brown And Many More... Music That Inspires Me... (Bands) My Chemical Romance Funeral for a Friend Korn A Perfect Circle/Tool Die Heuwels Fantasties (South African Band, the name means The Hills Fantastic... Don't ask, I don't know why) aKing And Many More... (Single Songs) Shine – Mr Big Logos Naki World – Yasushi Ishii (Please don’t kill me if that’s wrong) Drilled a Wire Through My Cheek – Blue October In en Uit - DHF Shine Your Light - aKing And Many More... Anime Series I wish I was part of... Hellsing Elfen Lied My Favourite Pairings (besides canon)... Harry Potter... Harry/Hermione Harry/Draco Hermione/Fred Remus/Sirius Harry/Sirius (Yes I know it's a bit weird, but hey, that's just me) Harry/Remus And I'm warming up to Snarry but it's slow going... Hellsing... Seras Victoria/Alucard Skulduggery Pleasant... Skulduggery/Valkyrie Valkyrie/Sanguine (weird, I know) I won’t necessarily write fics with these pairings... I am the girl... that doesn't go to school dances, and when I do go, I sit in a corner and read a book. I am the girl that people look through when I say something. I am the girl that spends most of her free time reading, writing, or doing other activities that most teenagers wouldn't call normal. I am the girl that people call weird, and a freak either behind my back or to my face. I am the girl that doesn't spend all her time on MySpace, or talking to a girlfriend on a cellphone or regular phone. I am the girl that has stopped to smell the flowers and jump and splash in the rain. But I am also the girl who knows, and is proud, to be who she is, doesn't care if people call her weird (it's a compliment), who loves reading and writing and doing the things that no one seems to have the time to do any more, who loves and is obsessed with Anime and Books, who can express herself better with words, and knows the importance of the little things. Copy and Paste this onto your account, and add your name to the list, if you are anything like me, so the girls who are different and unique can know in their weakest times that they are unique, but not alone.

I find myself sneering, and without meaning to, I draw myself up straight, glare openly at the demon lord, and snap, "Stick it up your crack, you warped son of a mutant bitch!" – Grubbs Grady to Lord Loss xoxo “There’s no such thing as winning or losing. There is won and there is lost, there is victory and defeat. There are absolutes. Everything in between is still left to fight for. Serpine will have won only when there is no one left to stand against him. Until then, there is only the struggle, because tides do what tides do–they turn.” – Skulduggery Pleasant xoxo “What would killing the Elders result in?" xoxo He was silent for a bit. "Right, well, we've got to work out what we need. We've got to work out what we need, how we get it, and what we need to get to get what we need." xoxo "Desmond," her mom said from the couch, "don't poke the baby." Her dad stopped, looked guilty, then leaned closer. "You may have won this round," he whispered, "but I WILL have my-" "And don't threaten the baby, either." "I wasn't," he said, straightening up immediately. "Just leave her alone. You're annoying her." "I'm not annoying her. She doesn't even know enough to BE annoyed. She's, what, a week old?" "She's three months." "She's three months in OUR years, but how old is she in baby years?" "Come away from her. Steph, could you pick her up? It's time for her feed." Valkyrie went to the baby while her dad frowned. "Why didn't you ask me to pick her up? I was standing right there. Don't you trust me? That's it, isn't it? You don't trust me." "I do trust you," her mum said. "I just don't trust you a LOT. Stephanie has safe hands." "You want to see safe hands?" her dad asked. He went to the fruit bowl on the side table, took two apples, and proceeded to juggle them. "See? Safe as anything." Her mum frowned at him. "Are you proposing you juggle our new-born child?" "Of course not," he said. "I'd only be able to juggle her if you'd had twins. Otherwise is just throwing." "Steph," her mum said, "give me my baby and never let your father near her." "Deal," Valkyrie said, handing her sister over. - Valkyrie and her parents xoxo I don’t go looking for trouble, trouble usually finds me. – Harry Potter xoxo "Proud?" said Harry. "Are you crazy? All those times I could've died, and I didn't manage it? They'll be furious..." – Harry Potter xoxo Of all the trees we could have hit, we had to hit the one that hits back. – Ronald Weasley xoxo Mr. Moony presents his compliments to Professor Snape, and begs him to keep his abnormally large nose out of other people's business. xoxo For instance, this new idea that You-Know-Who can kill with a single glance from his eyes. That’s a basilisk, listeners. One simple test: Check whether the thing that’s glaring at you has got legs. If it has, it’s safe to look into its eyes, although if it really is You-Know-Who, that’s still likely to be the last thing you ever do. – Fred Weasley xoxo Voldemort himself created his worst enemy, just as tyrants everywhere do! Have you any idea how much tyrants fear the people they oppress? All of them realize that, one day, amongst their many victims, there is sure to be one who rises against them and strikes back! – J.K Rowling xoxo Louder than God’s revolver and twice as shiny! – Look Alive Sunshine, My Chemical Romance |
