"Time is money" -Taka-tin, Gintama Episode 159

Spoiler alert: I’m a badly closeted trans guy who used to be a helluva weeb. If you found this, congrats! This is my old...not exactly shame, but it’s very much There.

Hello! I'm NightinGem, or Gem for short. I'm an avid writer who enjoys anime. My favorites at this moment are Gintama, Karneval, Natsume Yujin-Cho, and Hetalia. I also can't be bothered to completely update this profile, so some of it'll be from my idiot year-ago self! Apologies!

Try memorizing that and saying it fast five times.

I'm also a Nuzlocker! Pokemon's where it's at, man! And I totally don't have a stash of Gintamon, nope, not at all...

Dammit, this is going absolutely nowhere. I'm probably the most inept profile-writer in all of internet history.

Oh, my fanfics? Pfft, I've had so many brainchilds come and go. The one i'm actually capitalizing on is a crossover fic of Gintama and Hetalia, entitled Glasses and Stands. A cookie to the person who gets it.

Also, be prepared to shoot me, but while I do ship some ships quite oh so very hard, I won't die for them and I have a relatively low shipping drive.

and then, everyone walked away. the end.*

"Jackie's nose sure is big, isn't it?"- Puetnim soldier from Katsura's imagination, Gintama Episode 109

Oh.

I haven't even talked one tiny bit about my preferences and self, really. With writing and favorite characters and such.

Birthday: September 15th.

I wear glasses. Yup, I'm Megane.

Wait, Megane ja nai! NightinGem da!

Oh, yeah. I'm basically a female version of Katsura, or so I've been told. But you must admit, Amanto who are duck-penguin hybrids are quite cute! But Sableye are cuter.

I absolutely despise when certain/most characters go OOC. It just irks me for some reason. If you're going to write a character OOC, then have a good reason for it, say, a happy-go-lucky character in a horror fic.

OCs also tend to bug me, but if they're done right, I actually adore them. They can make a fic if they're done right...why aren't there so many done right...

Great, now I sound like a complete asshat.

I tend to ramble too much and occasionally lose sight of the big picture. And lack common sense. Kissing a cricket and lizard aren't bad things, are they? And besides, how could I know the lizard would flip out his tongue, therefore giving me my very first bit of tongue action at 11 years old.
Shut up Gem, your childish attempts at dirty humor degrade yourself.

I talk to myself. I'm pretty sure whoever's still reading this is getting tired of this pointless tirade, so let's go into some juicy bits.

Is she ever going to write any stories?

Yeah, but school sucks, potential homelessness sucks, and so does writer's block.

Why should I care about this random facts section which is coming up? This entire damn thing's been a random facts festival!

Honestly, I don't know. You probably shouldn't.

RANDOM FACTS WITH CAPSLOCK BECAUSE I was too lazy to turn it off

1: Yeah, I'm better at comedy than seriousness. Maybe it's in my nature...

2: I keep mentioning eyes and hair in my fics. A lot.

3: I can actually write in 1st person, 3rd person, past tense, and present tense all as easily as the other. How easily? Probably not very. ;a;

5: Apparently, I'm some kind of America/Canada hybrid.

6: I hate sexually-themed artwork, and actually feel sometimes feel uncomfortable with even kissing, and what really gets me squeeing is a sweet cuddle, hug, or a blushy thing of some sort. I'm a prudish romantic. Spoiler: You’re lying and you’re actually extremely horny but ashamed of it

"Pulp...Pulp Fiction!"- Kagura, Gintama Episode 29

Yeah, I'm probably not even going to bother updating this anytime soon. Lack-a-day, lackadaisical, oh how they sound the same
