Hello, Persnickety-Badger here. Hmm... How would I describe myself? A writer in search of her niche? A closet fangirl? Supporter of the idea that video games are their own form of literature? Proud Hufflepuff? A Pegasister with no regrets?

I believe that a person's tastes are a good indicator of who they are, so below are just a few of my favorite things:

- Favorite Book Series- Harry Freakin' Potter (this amazing series is the reason why I began to love literature, fantasy, and characters in general. My first true fandom)

- Favorite Movies- Aside from the Potter films, I adore Lord of the Rings, Jurassic Park (except the third), The Avengers (and pretty much anything Marvel), Lion King (and most Disney classics), Princess Mononoke (Studio Ghibli is legend), How to Train Your Dragon (though Dreamworks itself has its ups and downs), and Back to the Future.

- Favorite Video Games- Ocarina of Time, Skyward Sword, Wind Waker, Spirit Tracks (my first Zelda game), Portal and its sequel, Pokemon Black and White, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky (criminally underrated), Smash Bros Melee, Half-Life series

- Favorite TV Shows- Avatar: The Last Airbender, Legend of Korra, America's Funniest Home Videos (my guilty pleasure), Teen Titans, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic (no, that wasn't a typo), etc.

- Favorite Color- Green

- Favorite Pairings- Ron-Hermione (my childhood in a nutshell), Link-Zelda (in Ocarina of Time, Wind Waker, Skyward Sword (!!!!!), and Spirit Tracks), Katara-Aang (sweet, natural, and riveting), Toph-Sokka (they have an amazing dynamic; no hard feelings for Sukka), Cave Johnson-Caroline (a long shot, but has incredible potential story-wise), Touko-N (as portrayed in CoffeeIncluded's spectacular "Alphabet Soup"), Tahno-Korra (so. much. fun.), Katniss-Peeta (kept me guessing until the end), Gordon Freeman-Alyx Vance (impossible to not ship) and Krew-Friendship (the happiest ship that ever sailed)

- Favorite Quotes:

"Over at our place, we’re sure of just one thing: everybody in the world was once a child. So in planning a new picture, we don’t think of grown-ups, and we don’t think of children. But just of that fine, clean, unspoiled spot down deep in every one of us, that maybe the world has made us forget." - Walt Disney

"Admitting your fears is the first and most difficult step in overcoming them." - Tenzin (Legend of Korra)

"Everything is connected." - From Avatar: The Last Airbender

"Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade! Make life take the lemons back! GET MAD! I DON'T WANT YOUR DAMN LEMONS WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THESE?!? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day he thought he could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am?!? I'm the man who's gonna BURN YOUR HOUSE DOWN... with the lemons. I'm gonna get my engineers to create a combustible lemon that BURNS YOUR HOUSE DOWN!!!!!!" - Cave Johnson (Portal 2)
