Long time lurker/reader of the wiki. I've read almost all of the pages of said badfics, as well as the rules, so I think I understand the idea of this place. I'd like to try and help with most anything that has to do with the Pit and similar places. I used to go there often both looking and writing, and I still mind to do the latter, but both my RL time and The Pit's quality has deteriorated. I have joined some Pit Communities dedicated to seeking out badfanfic and fixing/criting it for the authors and deleting rulebreaking ones, but I mainly lurk than actually participate. My brain is so full of ideas that I switch from one thing to the other quickly, whether it be RL or net stuff, and I often forget things.
Also, I consider this more of a hobby than a real job, so obviously if RL stuff is coming up I give that higher priority. I'm going to assume it will be the same for this place as well, so please don't expect me around here doing too much work or PPC'ing in general. I have tried to write some snarks, though they are highly NSFE due to content and I'd rather not post them here where children can get at them. Same with some of my more recent 'better' work. Ack...I'm writing too much, I fear...
I mostly stay in anime fandoms (hence the clever name). Was a huge Narutard a while back, now just waiting for it to be over. I also do Soul Eater, SMT/Persona/Devil Survivor, Final Fantasy(1, 2,4, and 6 so far my faves.) Fate/Zero/SN, Death Note, DMC, MGS (recently, just got Legacy),Tales of etc., BlazeBlue usually anime/games that don't fit the regular shounen/shoujo cliche...though I have a few guilty pleasures like Fushigi Yuugi, Blue Seed and some Monster(stopped watching the anime like four eps in). I just don't have much chunks of time, and I'd rather write my 'what-if' fanfiction or twist up the plots/make up my own that sound plausible In-universe, than deal with more of the same only with different layers(?). I don't really like yaoi or yuri, though I can appreciate good characters that have relationships. I suppose I'd rather try and turn Sues into Not-Sues by talking it out with the author...and I am currently trying to parody/self-aware version of this with a SI/Canon Naruto fic that is in the works. Trying it with SMT and it's not going so well...I can't seem to translate my thoughts to paper as it feels so dry and lame.
As for non-anime fandoms, I still adore Harry Potter, dislike Eragon/Inheritance Series, like LOTR (though the new cashcow movie BS made me angry--three parts eh?), Zelda, Megaman (from Classic to ZX to Legends), Dragon's Age, just got into The Witcher on PC, Legacy of Kain, Cthulhu related stuff, and DnD like stuff. I've tried to join RL RP groups, but college is a huge PoA and time killer--more so with papers and finals coming. I just feel I never have enough time to properly put effort into creative things like fanfiction and art anymore. And when I do, it's either subpar, not what I wanted it to be, or just...I can't finish it or look at it. Like one of my old Naruto fanfictions: Started it in 2010, has 41 chapters, yet I haven't updated it since two years ago. It's barely Naruto anymore though; really Naruto in name, as I added more mythology and spiritual references. Now looking at it, I just hate it.
So that;s it really. I guess I'm just kinda lost right now, lol. Been busy trying to figure out how to draw using a computer and Paint.NET, not going great, and code in GameMaker/RPG Maker 2003/XP. I just have lots of ideas, I guess...Also, you can find me on the Pit, AFFO (guess, it's NSFW sorry), and also DeviantArt by the same name. I've tried to provide as much info as I can but if you need anything else, please feel free. I alos might not reply for a while, since I forget about this place, and many others on the net, since things are getting hectic. Sorry in advance.
