Hi Elizabeth! I see in addition to a common love for Akira and Hikaru, we both like origami (I haven't quite finished my 1000th crane yet) and making jewelry. Cool. I hope that we'll be able to tempt you into sharing your fanfic or fanart with us (Tari is well known for setting up writing challenges that are very hard to resist) but until then - looking forward to those mental vibes!

Greetings Caitlin! "Informative" - I like that! And I know what you mean about wanting to see and read everything. It's a compulsion that's hard to resist, I know ;-)

Good luck with your classes! (passes a plate of chocolate chip cookies) Study hard! Fight-o! ^__^

Aja! Hello! We met briefly on LJ (I was the one gushing on and on about your writing and you gifted me with very sound advice about finding a beta reader). I hope that you will have time to inspire some of the new kids on the block with your wonderful wit, enthusiasm and wordcraft!

Re: I can has fwends?

[ukefied]

OMG yes we can. Additional love sent for REAL maple syrup. *adds*

[ukefied]

Y HALO THAR fellow Canadienne. Also, a holla back for P4, GRRM, and Merlin. Shall we Circle-jerk?

[strikesoftly]

OHAYSUP. I think that a Circle-jerk sounds like a grand idea.

[jetsam]

Comment-fic is fun! (and HnG fandom is the place to do it). I'm glad you're enjoying it. I have you circled right?

[ladyseishou]

Yes! I look forward to your fic! And we're mutually subscribed! If you'd like access, let me know (I don't like to think that I'm spamming people).

Describe yourself in 5 words or less: medic for life! ^^;
Fandom activities you enjoy (ie. fanfic, fanart, icons, AMVs, etc.): I used to write fanfics back in the day hikagoyaoi.org was still active (is the site still alive?) so I consider myself part of yeh old old old fandom. I did a lot of drawings for hikago as well although I can't recall where I filed those darn things. However, I'm no longer active because my schedule would no longer allow it.
Other Fandoms: GundamO00, Fullmetal Alchemist, CSI, House, too many to count!
Other Hobbies/Interests: Gunpla, wasting time at Facebook
Anything else you would like to include about yourself: Currently on my last year of medical school, and I hope I can still be a part of the community. I think Hikago was my first fandom a long long long time ago, and I still somehow involved by reading fic, and just luring. ^^;

[ladyseishou]

Veat! Medical school hasn't killed you yet! I'm very happy to see you've found this comm! I hope that we might be able to coax a little fic or art out of you (for old time's sake?) (runs off to subscribe old friend ;-)

[veatariel]

I might try doing something for old time's sake. :D Hope I can scrounge something up in my half-dead state.

[ladyseishou]

Would cookies help? ^__^

[veatariel]

*rises from the grave and snatches digital cookies*

:)

[ladyseishou]

Zombie fic then?

[midnightbex]

Definitely! :D

Favorite Hikaru no Go Character(s): Akira, Waya, Sai
Favorite Hikaru no Go Pairing(s): Akira/Waya, Ogata/Akira, Hikaru/Akira/Waya. If anyone wrote Nase/Akari, I'd be all over that. I also read and enjoy Hikaru/Akira, Isumi/Waya, Isumi/Le Ping, and a number of rare pairings, but they're not my greatest loves.
Describe yourself in 5 words or less: introverted, haptic, literary, curious, opinionated
Fandom activities you enjoy: It's all good, but I tend to play more in the fanfic end of the pool.
Other Fandoms: Firefly, J-pop, K-pop, Leverage, Nobuta wo Produce, Saiyuki, Wild Adapter
Other Hobbies/Interests: history, cooking
Anything else you would like to include about yourself: My primary base is still livejournal, so there's not much point in subscribing to my DW journal. I'm trying to expand my reading list here, though, so if you think we've got a lot in common and are interested in getting to know me better, you could either give me access to your journal or drop me a comment here, and I'll check you out. (Fair warning: if you post very frequently and/or post a lot of non-fandom content, I probably won't end up reading you for too long, since I'm already following close to 300 personal journals and 200 communities. I just also want a bit more HnG content in my reading, hence my comment to this post.)

[veatariel]

Zombies are always nice. Zombie Sai rising from the river and chomping down on those seeking Hand of God is better. XD

[ladyseishou]

Oh man !_!

I see you haven't lost your sense of humor Veat ;-)

And in this tale, will Hikaru and Akira be starring as intrepid zombie hunters as they discover that the Institute is a hotbed of zombie action, having witnessed Kuwabara eating the flesh of a young Go player?

:-)
