Ooh, chocolate! I'll assume it's dark chocolate, I love dark chocolate. But not the stuff that's got sugar instead of milk, that causes acute nausea.

Bionicle - aaaaah, me tooooo. I think my favorite has and always will be 2001-2003, though I like certain elements of 2009 such as Worf's voiceMata Nui and Kiina. And the pair of them. Also Berix&Kiina strained sibling relationship, I have a whole complicated head canon for that with one story actually posted and another forming to get the explanatory backstory down. Mostly I do AUs at this point, though; I have one WIP where the Matoran who would have become the Chronicler's Company became Toa with the Toa Metru's Toa stones instead of Takua using the stones to summon the Toa Mata...

Hero Factory - Agreed on Bionicle being better. I have Stormer, Breez, and Surge (all 2.0) on my desk, and my sibs have a couple of villain sets. Von Nebula and Fire Lord, I think. I mostly got into this due to my sudden urge to write that story connecting it and Bionicle.

Dem 6 different books what are fantasy - Aye. I'm currently about two-thirds through Soul Music.

Dem 4 sci-fi vidya things - Ooh, speaking of Joss I've been sort of half-heartedly trying to get into Buffy and I really need to watch Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog before I spoil myself completely.

Dem bricks - Edward is a stalky creepy person and Bella is too stupidly romantic to be likable, in my opinion. I actually liked Eragon the book, but I can't remember if I even finished reading Eldest and have vague recollections of frustration and throwing with great force that were probably due to Murtagh being forced into Galbatorix's service. I liked Inheritance only because Murtagh freed himself, but I hate Eragon and his actions (-ahem- MERCY, DRAGONRIDER) to pieces.

Comics - Whoo, AT4W! I did get a tip recently that a comic shop in town has cheap prices, so if/when I get money again I'll probably go down there and clean it out some, see what catches my eye.

Homestuck - I managed to read the whole thing over a few days in early October, then flailed around until [S] Cascade and rode the high from it and Intermission 2 to write 35,000 words in the first week of November.

MLP: FIM - Great show indeed. I'm not so much in the fan part of the fandom so I've missed personal interaction with crazies, and I think I might skip out on the Google search... hahahahahahahaha who am I kidding I'll do that eventually.

ATLA/LOK - ATLA was indeed awesome and I also need to continue in the LOK-watching. If nothing else I can kick myself into gear by reminding myself that I find Kiina and Korra so similar I sometimes say one's name when talking about the other and I should really see how similar they actually are...

Neopets - I have it set to sent me e-mail notifs whenever my pets check out of the NeoLodge, so I just go back every 28 days and toss 'em back in, occasionally refilling my bank via a trip to the games room.

Thank you, and I plan to be around more so your hopes will hopefully not be dashed!

Friends are something we most certainly can be.

Luminosity is awesome, OK. It's everything Twilight isn't, starting with Bella being someone completely different and therefore, in my eyes, likable.

I lurk a lot myself in some places, ehe.

Oh dear, I may have this on repeat for a while.

Hmmm... anyone got a beanbag chair corner I can usurp?

Oh god not another one. -sob- Help, I'm drowning in them already!

-assumes it's a book with blank pages and starts writing in it with a new Generic Writing Tool turned into a mechanical pencil- I'll be here all week, just writing...

Ehee, I looked at all the other newbie posts on the first page before starting. Then I wrote 1413 words anyway because why the heck not. Also because I couldn't think of where to cut down...

I'm glad I seem to have a working knowledge of a lot of fandoms common to the people who lurk in these parts! Especialy MLP, the characters are indeed fleshed-out and seem like real people.

Working on the Discworld thing! :D Soon as I work through the backlog of replies I'll get back to Soul Magic.

Also your italics are showing. Oh dear.

Hmm. Can it vanish if turned into a crayon and then used down to nothing, and does it regenerate when turned into something else, or...?

Once... everything... got... 3-D...

2004?!

Ahem. Er. If you do mean the RuneScape Classic to RuneScape 2 change. Do you remember your password? You'd be a bit of a veteran...

and it's not misspelled that's all i know but it's definitely not misspelled >:[ (I kiiid I'm not annoyed.)

Ooh, Hat of Holding! I can put it on my head without things falling out, right?

Also, I am ludicrously behind on Homestuck. D:

You forgot bienvenue! As a Canadian I must politely remind you of it! Politely, of course. Very politely.

Hmm. Newbie cake. -pokes experimentally-

I have four Discworld books within arm's reach as of right now. Star Trek is a little harder because it's a bunch of TV shows and some movies and also books.

This is relevant to my interests and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter. (Seriously, I would be interested in reading that.)

I already am :D

-adds fudge to growing pile of stuff-

Oooooh, lava! I'll just assume the cauldron's basalt or something else magma-safe, maybe obsidian, this is a very dorfy way of getting rid of Angels. Thanks for the barge pole too. But mostly the lava.

Er. Is this stuff dangerous? It is 'TNT only better', according to you, and TNT explodes.

I put Guards! Guards! on hold! :D I also have Feet of Clay in my backpack (also Going Postal and Unseen Academicals), to be picked up whenever I finish Soul Music because evidently I can't read since this particular Death book was clearly on the shelf when I got to the library. :D Susan Sto Helit is awesome, by the way. I'll keep your recommendation of Night Watch in mind!

Ye-up, I'm a Gryffy. Hufflepuff, however, is awesome and dearly needs some more House Points because of that awesomeness.

Ooh, yes, Roran, I forgot I actually liked him too in Brickingr! Er, Brisingr. The third one. He's pretty cool, since apparently heeeee didn't need magical guardian angel dragons to do all his crazy feats of improbability like 193 kills. I agree with you on Eragon being an idiot, though I think Roran still had at least one sensible bone in his body by the time Inheritance finished with him.

I know where Kippur is on the net, but thanks for reminding me the sporkings are funny! I might go re-check them out, actually.

I used to wonder what friendship could be / 'till you all shared its magic with me~ Eh? Favorite character(s)? Roll 1d6 and pick whichever of the mane cast you want, I can't decide. Fluttershy and Twilight Sparkle are probably a liiittle higher because I see more of myself in them, though. I need to actually finish watching the first freakin' season before I get completely spoiled for everything... (Or cave and go looking for spoilers. I want to know what Princess Luna is up to~)

Generic Appreciation Of Welcome

I do want to read more Discworld, I assure you, I'm just not sure where to start. Do you have any favorites?

Yes, yes I have. :D Run, escape! Oops, too late, it has your soul and with the combat overhaul there will be one less boring part so it'll be harder to flee.

Noooo, you jerk, I can't wear this, I've even done all the goblin quests so it's not even a useful quest item anymore!

Yep, I know the Permission guidelines. If I'm still around here in a month I'll probably be staying for a while longer anyway; funny how my gauge of steady attention is about the same length of time as getting known here. :D

Impressive... ehe, I just read all the things and get attached.

Runescape, yes, yesss, I do play that. Even if I am greatly annoyed by that Squeal thing, I am a sucker for excellent content and the combat overhaul looks to be just that. I might even forgive them for the recent dearth of quests, I want to have to keep working for my quest cape!

Blink didn't scare me much. I mean, I watched it at night like a fool and I only got a little unnerved, but The Time of the Angels and Flesh and Stone are full on hide behind the couch terror just thinking about them. That which contains the image of an Angel itself becomes an Angel, and all that.

I want to read more Discworld, really I do! Do you have any recommendations?

Yay! ^.^ It's always nice to find kindred spirits, in headcanoning especially.

Oh, those? Those are only on the list because I participate in their fandoms in some way: Twilight by consuming what other people have made, and Inheritance because I have ideas for fanfic. I think the sources are as fail as anything, though if I had to choose I'd say I prefer Inheritance because while I prefer Problematic Gary Stu Murderer Guy to Problematic Stalker Boyfriend And Also Pedowolf. Also I actually kind of like the first book of Inheritance, and Brom, and Elva, and Nasuada and Murtagh. Those few gems don't make up for a pile of dreck with an urple centerpiece of Eragon Drecksson Shadeslayer, but they're enough for fanfic material.

Pebbles? Ooo- Random Shiny Objects! -yoink-

Finishing? What's that? I mean, I think I did that once, but ...
