Apr. 30th, 2006 12:38 pm1. Basics: Nny. Female, twenty three, bisexual, English. Kinda overweight, blue eyes, mousy brown hair, embarrassingly giggly. Like a pokémon in that I tend to squeak my own name when distressed or shocked. Er... five and a half feet, three and a half inches added onto that when I have trainers on. Think that's it.
2. I write. For other people, mostly, which is not a particularly productive thing; I have a lot of ideas for original fiction, but I'm too hung up on the feedback thing at the moment. Feedback makes me feel like I have somehow justified my presence on livejournal and in this world, which is why there is so frequently spam on my journal. An empty inbox and I may as well just not exist.
3. I am very messy. Hugely so. Not just in terms of my personal space - which is more clothes than floor currently, and scattered freely with books - but in terms of my brainspace as well. I don't really know where to find anything, it's not easily accessible. Every now and again I will stumble over a random fact in my head that's relevant, and the world will gasp and reassess their opinion of my intelligence, but for the most part I know far more than I'm able to use. My vocabulary's the same, annoyingly enough.
4. I feel things instantly and very deeply. As far as I'm concerned, when I'm in the grip of a strong emotion, that is it forever. The way I'm feeling about a person or object or piece of writing is all I will ever feel about it. It is the Way Things Are. And then I move on, fairly quickly. It's why I get hideously depressed, quite a lot, because I have a huge problem seeing a life outside of that moment. It's something I'm doing my very best to rationalise myself out of, because it's hard on everyone involved.
5. I'm bad at friends. I am terrible at AIM conversations, very bad at small talk, awful at remembering to keep in touch. I forget things about people all the time, and I can tell it's upsetting to them, but I forget the same sort of stuff about me. I have a bloody dreadful memory. I am good at random acts of kindness, and getting good presents when I remember to get them, but I'm seriously bad at friends. I'm going to try and write more letters, when I'm offline. But... this is why this enforced break from livejournal and milliways is scaring me so much. I'm pretty sure I'm going to lose everyone.
6. I like tea. I really like tea. Tea and dressing gowns.
7. I created a roleplaying game called
8. I am a slasher, have been since the age of thirteen. I'm starting to see a world beyond slash, now, which means I may never graduate to NC-17 stories. I love writing gen stories, but I will very rarely read them; however, my tastes in slash are exceedingly vanilla. It's the characterisation I'm interested in more than anything, and slow build-ups. There is very little in terms of fanfic that I actually disagree with, although I will avoid certain areas... that said, I don't agree with fic about real people. It feels like too much of a liberty. In spite of this, I think Paul Bettany and Russell Crowe are totally in love. I'd just never fic it.
9. I think Paul Bettany is enormously hot. Looks and personality.
10. My music, film and book tastes are exceedingly eclectic. Basically I like stuff that's original and done well. I don't really like remixes unless there is more added to it than an UNF UNF UNF bass line, and sequels are generally crap although I am prepared to have my mind changed. I will make exceptions in books for bad things I read as a small child, I will make exceptions in film for pretty people, and I will make exceptions in music for bad euro crackpop. On occasion. Sometimes, I can be quite enormously shallow.

Finally, yay Brian! ♥

I haven't had a chance to look at all of them, but it's wonderful. Possibly I haven't had the chance because I can't move past this one (http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i106/afallanhuene/angels/fallenangel-alexandrecabanel.jpg). *stares*

Hypnotic, that's what it is.
