oh, hey, Havemercy. Sorry, I have not even read it! ^^; but I beta-read schattenstern's Yuletide story "Spirits of Winter" set in that universe, which I thought I'd plug gratuitiously since Havemercy fanfiction is probably pretty rare. Maybe you'll like it!

Fan of Star Trek, anime AND Sei Shounagon? You are a woman after my own heart! Friends, please?

[jetsam]

On further thought, if I were to pick favourite pairings, I'd go for Sai/Ogata and Kishimoto/Tsutsui. I feel this is highly important information and says a lot about my shipping habits.

Re: it begins with "hello"

[ladyseishou]

Yes, please!

Star Trek was my first fandom (a short K/S story was my first attempt at fanfic). This led to my interest in Alexander (the Great) and Horatio Hornblower and then... oh my! thousands of books later. I still don't have enough bookshelves ;-)

Hikaru no Go was love at first sight! And of course I had to know more about Sai - about the Heian time and culture and then about Shusaku's Edo Japan (and all points in between) and oh my! even more books (my post-it-noted copy of John Power's Invincible, the Games of Shusaku sits in a place of honor at my desk).

A fellow history buff!

[ladyseishou]

We're almost neighbors! I live near Indianapolis. And we share a similar taste in TV shows (I'm counting the days until the new season of Leverage). Interested in becoming friends?

[ladyseishou]

A fellow Trekkie! Trekker? Or did that die awhile ago?

Friends! Although I hope that you won't find my journal too boring - I seem to spend most of my time on various and sundry DW communities.

Re: I can has fwends?

[ladyseishou]

I love pancakes! Can we be friends? No seriously, I really love pancakes with almost any kind of fruit syrup (maple's pretty good too but it has to be the real deal).

[ladyseishou]

Hi! Mostly I just wanted to say how much I enjoy your commentfic. You are quick witted and fast (not to mention funny and have a great eye for detail). I hope that you will consider writing for the comment!fic activity when it gets started here.

[ladyseishou]

Welcome Dannie! I know that a lot of people are keeping both LJ and DW journals. Me too (for a while anyway). Crossposting seems to be working well for a lot of people and we've set up RSS feeds for this comm and several LJ hikago communities so it will be easy to follow both no matter where you decide to post from. But I have to say that I like the "new car smell" here so-to-speak ;-)

[ladyseishou]

Hello ZK! A fellow CLAMP fan! Yeah! And Detective Conan too. And Bleach! And PoT and... okay I'll stop here and say Welcome!

[ladyseishou]

LS here and nice to meet you too, aly! Hopefully we'll be hosting a lot of new and inspiring writing activities on the comm to generate a lot of new fanfics for everybody - and maybe encourage new writers to give it a go too ;-)
