HELP! Need a good BETA for Rurouni Kenshin fanfic--or someone willing to let me bounce ideas off of and give advice. jadedscorpio at gmail dot com is a good place to reach me. *PUPPY EYES OF DOOM*

Most of my fic have been banished into the dark void of cyberspace since this site has decided to eliminate all the good stuff (ie. NC-17 fics, several fandoms...). Perhaps I will one day post links to my other works, but for now I will post what little I have here that is "acceptable" under the new guidelines.

"Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is a little like expecting the bull not to attack you because you are a vegetarian." - Dennis Wholey

If you want my adoration, all you need do is write a nice review. *big puppy eyes*

I didn't do it, nobody saw me do it, you can't prove anything!

About me, well Jade Scorpio enjoys riding horses, dancing, and doing all things artistic. She has dabbled in everything from metalsmithing to ceramics to painting.

She wishes she didn't have to live in the real boring world, and spends too much of her time writing fanfic when she should be working on that great novel that will get her a cushy writer's deal so she can quit her crappy minimum wage job and spend all her time writing and drawing and making movies, or tv shows, or just something way better than what she's doing now. She also does some fanart but is too shy to post any of it. She is not a morning person, and is probably up really late again when she knows she has to get up early for work tomorrow. She is currently wondering why if she has to work six-seven days a week, she still doesn't have any disposable income. She has two degrees, but can't get a real job without experience, but will never get experience until she gets a real job.

Some more randomness and words to live by:

"I never fail. I succeed in finding what doesn't work." -Christopher Titus

"Too often, we lose sight of life's simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown...but it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and slap the idiot upside the head..."

"I learn something new about myself everyday. Why do you think I have this perpetually horrified look on my face?" --Titus
