Name: Crimson-Pen531

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Location: Nowherseville, Georgia

Favorite Animes (not in correct order): Trigun, Fullmetal Alchemist, Rurouni Kenshin, YuYu Hakusho, Fruits Basket, Samurai Champloo, Weiss Kreuz, Hellsing, Gravitation, Loveless, Trinity Blood, Ouran High School Host Club, and Wolf's Rain

Favorite Characters: Now, you guys can't really expect me to pick just a select few characters that I like, right?

Hobbies: I love to write, as is evident in my stories. I also spend much of my free time singing! (Sidenote: I've finally managed to finish my novel, so wish me luck on getting it published!)

Favorite Pairings: (not necessarily in correct order) Vash/Meryl, Wolfwood/Millie, Roy/Riza, Ed/Winry, Kenshin/Kaoru, Tohru/Yuki, Tohru/Kyo, Shuichi/Yuki, Soubi/Ritsuka, Tamaki/Haruhi. (Yes, I know, I stick pretty much to the traditional couples.)

Anime/Fanfiction Pet Peeves: emotional tension between characters you know are in love but won't admit it, MarySues, lemons, things of that sort.

Favorite Music: Oddly enough, I am a HUGE country music fan, as well as Japanese Rock. My favorite artists of the latter are Gackt, T.M. Revolution, Miyavi, L'Arc~En~Ciel, Core of Soul, etc., etc. (Sidenote: Yum, yum, Takanori!)

Personal Writing Style: I enjoy mostly romance fics about viable couples (i.e. couples with a bit of basis in the actual anime story line). Most of my fanfics are either romance or angst fics. I've also always liked oneshots better than anything else, so pretty much all of mine are also going to be a single chapter, perhaps a fluff here or there, but not often. Enjoy, everyone!

Favorite Quotes: "My child, I love you and would never leave you in your times of trial and suffering. When you saw only one set of footprints in the sand, it was then that I carried you." - Footprints

"You can die at any time, but living takes real courage." - Kenshin Himura, Rurouni Kenshin

"Rightly to be great/ Is not to stir without great argument,/ But greatly to find quarrel in a straw/ When honor's at the stake." - Hamlet, Hamlet

Sidenote: I haven't had the chance to write too much lately since I'm in college now and hence have lots of classes and a job to go to. Hopefully I'll get some free time soon, because I really miss posting a new story almost every couple weeks. Ha ha! Wish me luck!
