Bonjour! Je m'appelle Casie, et je suis americaine, mais j'aime beaucoup parler francais! I'm a fanfic-crazed teenager who loves painting, writing, photography, reading, Vaganova ballet, poofy ballgowns, and, of course, David Tennant. A few of my favorite works of literature are the Harry Potter series, the Twilight Saga, the Mortal Instruments trilogy, Angels & Demons, the Peeps books, the Inheritance Saga, the Maximum Ride series... and an infinite amount more. I don't watch the television much, but I watch NCIS and Doctor Who with a religious fervor. Ballet is the breath of life to me; a day without wearing pointe shoes or technique shoes or moving my body in any poetic way at all is a day wasted. Theatre is my soul; I love Wicked, Sweeney Todd, Children of Eden, Chicago, Cabaret, Les Miserables, In the Heights, Guys and Dolls, Phantom of the Opera, and pretty much every other musical in existence.

Fave quotes (from books/movies/musicals/etc.):

'But if you could see her through my eyes... she wouldn't look Jewish at all.' - Emcee, Cabaret (I get shivers every time I listen to that song!)
'You said you wanted me to be human. Well, watch me.' - Bella, New Moon (One of the only good quotes in that series... but I digress, I love it anyways!)
'The most sexually magnetic left eyebrow in history.' - PTO avatar - Oh, yes, it is.
'If the fetus you saved was gay, would you still fight for its rights?' - a powerful statement from some Facebook Flair

SCHULTZ: Fraulein Schneider... it is not always a good thing to settle for the lowest apple on the tree - the easiest to reach. Climb up - a little way. It is worth it! Up there, the apples are so much more delicious!
SCHNEIDER: But if I fall...?
SCHULTZ: I will catch you. I promise. I feel such tenderness for you. It is difficult to express. Are we too old for words like love?
-Cabaret

'People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered. Love them anyway.
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives. Do good anyway.
If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies. Succeed anyway.
The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable. Be honest and frank anyway.
The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds. Think big anyway.
People favor underdogs but follow only top dogs. Fight for a few underdogs anyway.
What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build anyway.
People really need help but may attack you if you do help them. Help people anyway.
Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth. Give the world the best you have anyway.
You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.'
-Dr. Kent M. Keith.

Fave quotes (from people I know/have contacted in some way before):

'Mama thinks I'm on a tour of Europe, but I'm really waiting tables, 'cause I couldn't get a part.' - Marcus, sung to the tune of 'Don't Tell Mama'
'Whenever I start writing in the normal, mundane world, I get a little bored.' - Scott Westerfeld
'Dumbledore would know what Nightingale Bar is.' - K, our phenomenal and hilarious theatrical director
'Voodoo Sex Princess.' - Peter. Ah, Peter.

Yes, I did take down both The Twilight Incident and Remus Lupin and the Pranks of Perfection. I wasn't (and still am not) going to update them any time soon, and had no plot developments to make. Not as We, however, is still up, because I do see some potential there and will hopefully do something about it sometime soon.

Peace, love, and Robert Sean Leonard!
