Boy I'm a slack one. Just getting around to this now ^^; Welcome ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
ldybastet, shiki, vampire_scooby, zenelly who are newly arrived from the friending meme. Glad to have you aboard :3 Here's to lots of squee and good times.
However at the moment work is being evil and my brain is taken over by the need to read xmfc stuffs so no idea how much squee there will be on my end.
That said, here's a slightly updated oi! this is me and my interests :D Generally I poked at the pairs list a little to make it clearer.
Current flist should probably read through this too. I totally encourage discussion, preferably without pairing wars in which I'd rather agree to disagree *smiles* Also feel free to poke me about things I'm supposed to be writing. What I'm up to right now is re-reading the second half of Book of Love in anticipation of getting that last chapter done. I really am going to finish that series this year! IT WILL HAPPEN! nevermind how many years it's been waiting to be done Um for those who don't know...Book of Love, or BoL, is a series of fics of Irvine/Squall with a smattering of Seifer/Zell and Kiros/Laguna.
Now onto the THIS IS GNOME!

There are the rare het ships but it's a mood thing as I'm predominately a yaoi girl.
How do you generally participate in a fandom? Fic, squeeing, lurking, making cosplay
Do you have any of your own fandom/fanworks-related communities? Not communities but a out of date website that has most my fic.
Shows you like: Don't watch much tv but do like Miniscule when I remember it's on. TV is for gaming :D
Movies you like: Star Wars, Star Trek, XMFC, Iron Man, various other that I can't think of right now.
Books you like: Enjoyed reading lots of David Eddings when younger, partial to thoughts of corrupting Bevier (yes I have written ficlets for Eddings stuff >.>) and quite liked Caverns of Socrates by Dennis L McKiernan. I need to get back into reading books but fic on the internet is so very shiny. I'm on such a xmfc fic reading kick right now that shows no signs of slowing.
Musical artists you like: Linkin Park, Saliva, Hoobastank, Meatloaf, Melissa Etheridge, 30 Seconds to Mars...my playlist of late is usually various anime/game soundtracks or the Legacy of Kain voice sessions.
Other interests of yours: Do like cooking and sewing, don't like gardening. Love my furbaby! Shadow!kitteh.
Extra stuff to note: I am a visual person. Me seeing things is a good way to get my attention. Example - I avoided the KHR fandom for a couple of years. Then I saw an amv at Y-con 2010 and was hooked. The amv just made hit me right and I needed to see the series. I now cosplay and have written a little for it.
I travel...or did. Can't afford it too much anymore but I've been to the previous 7 of 8 Yaoi-cons and I recommend going if you can. So much fun to be had and good times with great friends. I'd like to go this year if I can afford it but if not then it'll have to be next year.
Long post is long. Now to go either read more BoL or xmfc stuff.
