Okay, I'm going to pound this out now.  per request of [personal profile] dancing_serpent I am going to go off on five subjects (of her choosing).  The first one might be rather long but since I know that there are Hetalia fans on my flist, hopefully people will not be too bored.    Of course I don't pretend to think I am very interesting, really I'm not in retrospect, perhaps it is because i'm a bit older.   I'm of the opinion that I'll post what I like and to hell with all the rest. (I'm also a bit up-front with opinions.. but conversely, you'll likely find no drama here when I state my opinion.. I can take people disagreeing with me).

Axis Powers Hetalia (I'm not sure if I spelled that right, but you know.. it doesn't matter to me and won't keep me up at night)

I got into this wonderful series via 4chan, because I saw a whole bunch of pictures of these country-tans and I was like "wow, what is this?".  Honestly, I'm a big history nut so it intriqued me, and the fact that the country's have been personified as real human beings really tickled my fancy.  Being me, I do whatever I do when fanart of a series intriques me.. I dip my toe in the waters.   I came out liking Hetalia quite a bit.    The first person I liked was America, the second was Russia, then I read Hungary and fell in love completely (an awesome character who is also a fujoshi, I AM THERE!).    I am not really that lenient with pairings in Hetalia, but like with most series, if I don't like a pairing.. I will not read it and I won't criticize anyone for their particular likes. :come on, people.. life is too short:.

A list of pairings I like from Hetalia (I can assure you, they are probably run of the mill)

Japan/Greece
America/England
Hungary/Austria
Finland/Sweden
Russia/Lithuania
Poland/Lithuania
China/Korea
Germany/Italy

Switzerland/Lietchenstien


Most people wonder why I have things listed like that (most people may go.. "Finland would NEVER top Sweden".  Well random fact about me, I don't believe in set top or bottom and I shy away from portraying the characters as such, anything that I like.. I'm a firm believer in switch. (And Hungary would so do Austria in the ass with the giant strap-on hidden underneath her bed, she's a fujoshi after all and he probably likes it :/shot:)   No really, I have my own reason for writing the pairings that way, something that only [personal profile] shukoi would understand (hers would be flipped from mine)

There, one subject talked about!   Hurrah for nation!slash.

I will type up an introduction post. I promise. I've just gotten sucked into Lord of the Rings Online which will occupy my time for a little while.   But I promise, it will be forthcoming.   And a little explaination of my icon.  It's the one that is currently my favorite, from FFIV and involving Cecil and Kain.   I love how Kain is coveting the rainbow pudding in the picture, because hot damn.. that rainbow pudding -does- look pretty good, I'd eat it in a heartbeat.

I have an offbeat sense of humor.  I am not afraid to speak my opinion on anything or take a stand.   I was one of those people who left Livejournal once strikethrough occured and while I post maybe once every six months, I've kept my resolve to never really actively support a system that does not listen to it's userbase.    I've kept home at Greatestjournal (which imploded upon itself in a less-then-impressive frission.)

I enjoy yaoi, yuri and het, it all depends on the pairings.   I like guys that are manly and women that are kick-ass.    I grow bored with most pretty girl shows if there is no compelling plot (Maria-sama ga Miteru, Aria and Lucky Star are the exceptions to this rule).     I usually am also bored with stereotypical yaoi series where at least half the men look like girls, but I'm also amused by 'traps' if it's done well. (Maria+Holic is hilarious for that very reason).

Video games are also a passion of mine with the first video game that I was ever obsessed with was FFVI (FFIII when it came out for the super-nintendo).   It went into Xenogears (favorite RPG of all time) and then finally Final Fantasy Crisis Core which is my current video game obsession of choice.

When I obsess, it usually means that I'll icon the hell out of a series.    I have an icon journal over at Insanejournal entitled Soylent Icons and for anyone who gets that reference, I give you mad ammounts of cookies.  (Though Krelian's Lab Playdough Playset is a a joke betwixt myself and my homo life-partner, Shu involving what Krelian really does when he's bored in his lab)

I probably didn't give all that much away at all. 

Anyone have any questions?   This is a good first post I think, and for those people who don't know me that well, you can ask me anything.  My real name, things I like, favorite foods, fandoms, pairings.  You name it and I'll answer it.
