"Being silent never helped anyone."

The name: I'm a Golden Sun (GS) and Fire Emblem (FE) fanwriter. 25's just my lucky number. I've written 50 signed reviews and countless unsigned ones. I used to go by Smiles... and if you've written for either fandom, chances are I've read your work. *puts on ninja stalker gear* If I haven't left a review, it's because 1) I probably got dragged away from the computer (this happens often, I have a sibling) or 2) your work is good, hence popular, and being the 102nd review doesn't feel as special as being the first, so I'll alert the fic and comment later. :)

If I've given you a review, know that if you'd like a more in-depth one, I'd be happy to do so. I do a lot of critique work in my community at several writing groups, so just shoot me a note. Otherwise, I'm just a cheerleader 'round here. *raises metaphorical pompoms*

I take requests, as well. Just saying. Though I can't guarantee the outcome. *ponders falling marshmallows*

--I am currently in school, so fics may go on hiatus without warning.--

Fics: (Active)

Crimson: I'll try to update once every week. Right now I've scholarships and college junk to deal with, so I've been distracted. I do have the rest of the fic planned out, though. Expect ~ 25 chapters. Outtakes are below!

Untitled: (but in progress) co-written GS fic as a sequel to Dark Dawn. There will be food, falling objects, and other madness. Silvara and barefootbean are helping me, so we'll actually have an updating schedule once the first few chapters are done. :) Yay GS! Our official deadline is 2012.

Departure: (HIATUS-MESSAGE IF YOU WANT IT TO CONTINUE) Updated erratically. Now that I've put all my all-time favorite people in there, I'm tempted to throw some GS goodness in there as well. Red 13 will also make an appearance (I'm thinking of a Sanaki/Nanaki joke) but I honestly have no clue where it's going anymore plot-wise. But then, neither does Ike. :) If you'd like to see something happen in paticular, message me and I'll throw it in the mix.

Outtakes: (Crimson)

"It's Goldoa. Nobody stays in their right mind here."

The annoying pirate song Soren heard-

"We're going to Goldoa

we're going to going to go!

We're going to Goldoa

we hope, we hope you know!

Oh!

We're going to Goldoa

We're going out to sea

We're going to Goldoa

We're going, you and me!"

"Ike?"

"What?"

"I'm gay!"

"...well, I'm not."

"Oh, but..."

"Sorry, Kurth."

"No! That wasn't what I meant!"

"Then what did you mean?"

"Oh, uh.." *looses nerve* "I'm... happy! Yeah!" *sweatdrop*

"...well, I'm not."

"Gareth, take this."

"Ena? Why would you give me a sending stone?"

"So YOU can deal with Kurth's mid-life crisis’s at two o' clock in the morning!"

"Oh... wait, Kurth's too young to-"

"Soren?"

"Yes, Ike?"

"What's with the Rexbolt tome? I thought that was Ilyana's... besides, I thought you couldn't use it..."

"I'm learning."

"Why?"

"Personal protection."

"But you have me."

"...personal retribution, then."

"Oh... I could 'a just taken Dragonfoe, you know..."

"I already paid Volke to locate one."

eyes widen* "...Wow." *makes mental note to warn Nasir*

“Falling marshmallows? Oh! I get it! It’s like when you throw rice over a couple, only sweeter!”

“…I think you’re trying to apply logic to something completely illogical…”

Janaff: Umm… do you hear what I see?

Ulki: Do you see what I hear?

Both: That?

Tibarn: Yo, what’s flyin’ bros?

Both: *sweatdrop*

Janaff: Hey, Tibarn…

Ulki: King Kurthnaga is fast approaching.

Tibarn: Kurth? Yeah, bring that homie ovah here!

(Awkward silence)

Nialiah (to Rafiel): This is why I was so concerned about Reyson picking up Tibarn’s mannerisms…
