I cuss a lot. I like slash. I regret nothing. =3

It occurred to me that I should probably write a little more in here, though, to be honest, I really suck at writing profiles. You see that avatar over there? That's Groucho Marx for anyone who doesn't recognize him. Go wiki him, the page is a hilarious read.

If you did look him up, or know anything about his character and somewhat brash wry sense of humor, then you've got a good handle on what my writing style is. I don't take myself too seriously, but I'm obsessive about trying to stay true to the characters as I see them. I don't pull punches, and I'm a hopeless sap. I tend to do the unexpected, but I foreshadow a lot with subtle hints. I LOVE TO LAUGH...and cuss. I'm not afraid of internal dialogue or the complicated tangled mess that raw emotions of all shapes and sizes can turn people into. I'm patiently impatient, I take things slow with scattered moments of absolute chaos.

I also don't do the whole traditional seme/uke thing. I just can't. Characters are imaginary people...but they're still *people* in my head. I have a very difficult time restricting them to stereotypical roles when I see them as complex flawed humans. Sorry! =(

There are probably two things you should be warned of: I'm horrible about not leaving reviews, and I can be real sporadic with responding to any messages. It's a personality flaw I'm trying to amend, so I apologize in advance for the times I will inevitably become a complete flake.

Wooo!! The story 'Things Just Ain't the Same...' IS COMPLETE! XD *does a little dance*

Can you tell I'm a Naruto x Kakashi fan? Believe it or not, I'm also a fan of Naruto x Gaara, or Shikamaru, or Kiba. The last one is a badboy pairing. They can be such punks when they get together, I love it. XD I simply adore the chemistry each of them has with Naruto as friends, brothers, partners, whatever!

Actually, you know what? I just love the chemistry Naruto has with EVERYONE. F* it! I luv the derpy goob, he's such a cuddly bundle of sunshine and drama.

I don't really do the 'copy/paste' thing, but this quote is so perfect it leaves me speechless.

“Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you. Then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life... You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore."

-Neil Gaiman

A note to Anastasia:

I wish you'd signed in, then I would have been able to PM you with an answer to your question. The names are dumb because they're from cheesy porn novels. Besides, role-playing is a little kinky, but it's hella fun! It was meant to be humorous, and I am sorry you didn't get the joke. As for the other issue, well, to each their own. =)

I have a forum now! It's a "behind the scenes" thing to offer public answers to questions I got in reviews. ...or to answer questions that I didn't get in reviews. Lots of "did you know" facts and unnecessarily long-winded explanations, because I'm kind of neurotic and I tend to overthink EVERYTHING. =P

Thank you for stopping by! And thank you all for reviewing, or fav'ing, or following, or just reading these stories! You don't have to like everything I write, and you don't have to read everything I write. But if I got you to smile just once, then it was all worth it. =D
