Hello all! I'm Youkai Taijiya, or you can just call me You, Kai, Tai, or Jiya. Doesn't really matter. I'm (almost) eighteen years old, born on September 16, a female and obsessed with manga/anime, particularly InuYasha and Vampire Knight. A few others are Beast Master, Moe Kare, Black Bird and a few others I currently can't remember the names of, go me!

I'm also irrevocably and completely in love with my girl, Molly.

I'm an InuYasha fan, and particularly a fan of either Kagome/Sesshōmaru and the occasional Rin/Sesshōmaru story, since Inuyasha tends to just make me want to smack something, or scream into a pillow. Not to say that I enjoy bashing Inuyasha, but I never really though Kagome fit with him. But anyway, I'm more of a fan of the manga then the anime, and when I do get some stories up, you'll all probably notice that in any of the stories I write, there will never be an Ayame, seeing as she doesn't really play an important part in the manga series and well, Kōga doesn't end up with her in the manga so, it all works out. Actually, anything that happens in the anime, but doesn't appear in the manga is basically off-limits for me.

I also greatly enjoy some good Kagome/Sango stories, but haven't seen very many of them yet so, I might try my hand at writing one.

Also, when it comes to my future stories ( except for Once Bitten ), you'll probably notice that Inuyasha doesn't end up with Kikyō, and that's basically because of some recent research that I looked into and talking to a huge fan of the series. If you aren't familiar with The Inuyasha Blog or inuyasha.tumblr, then I suggest you go explore it! The man is a pure InuYasha genius in my own opinion.

Basically, he points out in a post about Kikyō and Inuyasha's relationship that at once, it might have been 'puppy love' but over the course of the MANGA, he points out that Inuyasha feels GUILTY about Kikyō's predicament, but is determined to be with Kagome, which is too bad because I don't ship them but anyway.

Basically, the anime makes the whole Kikyō/Inuyasha/Kagome thing into a big love triangle, to get more reviews. In the manga, half of these points that are made in the anime do not exist. So from NOW ON, as of August 2013, my stories will not have a Inuyasha/Kikyō relationship in them. Basically, it will probably be Kagome who moves on.

Another point. Even if THIS did happen in the manga, I don't believe that Sesshōmaru should have had an arm grow back, and I say AN because the arm is humanoid, not at all like his previous limb. But for the sake of the manga and my respect towards Rumiko Takahashi, I'll go along with it, since my stories are going to revolve around Sesshōmaru anyway, be it with whoever I put him with, which will almost always be Kagome, unless I suddenly recieve muse.

You'll probably also notice that my favorite character is Sango, despite the fact that I haven't written about her yet. It was Kōga for awhile, but there's just something about a strong, beautiful, independent woman that gets the feels going, am I right? That and I can really relate with the Kohaku predicament, since I'm overly protective of my older, special needs brother, but can't help him, because of his own special needs. For a few moments, he'll act like the older brother I know and want, then reverts back to his more...childish (in a non-offensive way) behaviors.

I love him, but he's not always ...There...

Not to say that Kohaku has special needs, but seeing as he can't always control his actions because of Naraku, it's kind of the same with some of the disabilities my brother has, such as turrets. But like I said, sometimes he's the person he was born to be, and sometimes he isn't. Might not make sense, but it's how it is. My brother's medication is kind of like having the jewel shard removed, or purified.

If any of that sounds wrong in any way, then forgive me but it is how I see it. It might not be ideal, it might not be nice, but I prefer the truth.

(Also, as you'll notice again, I will always try to use the correct pronunciation and grammar when it comes to the names of Japanese characters, so this includes using the little lines, yada-yada.)

Just so ya'll know, I like to research and I like to rant. Two things that do not bode well for the unsuspecting reader in terms of having questions answered, but I'll try my best to explain every one of my little quirks as to not annoy the users. Anyway, seeing as if I wanted my username to be Japanese, the translation would have been Ōkami oni buzoku, which would have been annoying to repeatedly tell people and it wouldn't even be allowed as a name anyway so. And there I go ranting again. -_-;

Some of my biggest pet peeves are miss-spelling, improper grammar, and incorrect pronunciation.

I also get just a little bit annoyed when people complain about how 'horrible' their life is on public chats when they go through a break-up or something really minor like that happens. I'm not saying that I haven't done the same thing, but people have to understand that there are a lot worse things that could happen, and when they start playing the 'my life is worse than yours' game, it just gets down right ridiculous. Life is hard, hell, at times it IS horrible, but it doesn't last forever and its up to you to make it better. Sitting around and complaining about it isn't going to change anything.

Anyone else hate it when people say their life is worse than yours? For all we know, someone on here might be homeless and spends every day at the library, just to get stories out for OUR pleasure.

That's why we have FanFiction! So we can torture our characters instead of ourselves, am I right?

And its so much more fun! Er- I mean... .;;

I really need to stop ranting...

As for Vampire Knight, I'm generally all for Yuuki/Zero or Zero/Hanabusa, which I don't generally see a lot of, sadly, but more likely, you'll find me dishing out some InuYasha stories in hopes to further my future writing career as a fiction author.

Will add more soon!

Also, here's my account on AFF.net (For all of you out there who enjoy a good, well-written lemon.)

Once Bitten

Kagome is bitten by a pack of ōkami - inu obake yōkai, and finds herself changing in many ways. What happens when Sesshōmaru and Kōga both get involved?
AU. Slight OC (maybe). Rated M, just in case. Romance/Slight Angst/Humor. Sesshōmaru and Kagome.
