This is the dead land

This is the cactus land

Here the stone images

Are raised, here they receive

The supplication of a dead man's hand

Under the twinkle of a fading star.

Is it like this

In death's other kingdom

Waking alone

At the hour when we are

Trembling with tenderness

Lips that would kiss

Form prayers to broken stone.

-The Hollow Men by T. S. Eliot

Hello genteel readers,

I come hailing from Live Journal as nmhotel21. Seeing some great authors on this website has made me finally create an account.

Warning I am a yaoi and slash fan. Also I tend to be a little pairing crazy.

Some info about myself, hm...

Shows

My current obsession is Bleach, pairing wise it's mainly Grimmjow/Ichigo, Renji/Ichigo, HIchigo/Ichigo, Hichigo/Renji, Hichigo/Grimmjow, and Grimmjow/Renji. That is quite a list.

I also love Shinji and Urahara, but I usually don't like them in pairings unless they are very well writen. There are other characters and pairings that I like in Bleach, but these are the main ones.

Next up is Naruto, mostly it's Kakashi/Iruka, but I don't mind Sasuke/Naurto. Of course there are many other characters that I like but don't really ship. Examples include Rock Lee, Gai, and Gaara. Not clearing the time jump has left me oblivious to some of the new charecters, but I'm trying to catch up.

Another great show is Supernatural. Cas is awesome. Dean/Cas is at times a funny, depressing, and hot pairing that I ship.

Criminal Minds, such a great show. I love the whole cast but I have to say my favorites are the Boy Genius, Reid, and The Stoic, Hotch.

Also Doctor Who has caught my love, so far the Tenth Doctor is my favorite, but I love all of the new ones and what I have seen of the older ones (mostly the fifth). Pairing wise I'm a Ten/Rose shipper, but I really like the Doctor/Master too.

Finally Firefly is one of my all time favorite shows. It makes me terribly sad knowing that it will never have a new episode. Like Criminal Minds I love the whole cast, but my favorites have to be Mal and Simon. My favorite pairing also happens to be Mal/Simon.

Music

I'm just going to list my favorite bands and singers if anyone happens to be interested.

Animal Collective, The Antlers, The Arcade Fire, Arctic Monkeys, Band of Horses, Belle and Sebastian, Blitzen Trapper, Bloc Party, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Cream, Death From Above 1979, Destroyer, Dirty Projectors, The Doors, Editors, Fleet Foxes, Franz Ferdinand, Frog Eyes, Handsome Furs, Interpol, Jimi Hendrix, The Killers, The Kills, Metric, MGMT, Modest Mouse, Neutral Milk Hotel, The New Pornographers, of Montreal, Okkervil River, Pixies, Queens of the Stone Age, The Raconteurs, Radio Head, Scissor Sisters, Sea Wolf, The Shins, The Smiths, Spoon, The Strokes, Sunset Rubdown, Swan Lake, TV On The Radio, The Unicorns, Vampire Weekend, The Velvet Underground, Voxtrot, White Rabbits, The White Stripes, Wolf Parade, and Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

Yeah... this is just the bands I can't live without, I left a lot off of the list.

I'm tired right now I might add more to this later.

Hopefully fics to come from me.
