I'm discovering that writing Bones fic is INCREDIBLY dificult. Who knew. It's my own fault, though, I'm trying to reach too far - when I'm not planning on joining a fandom, whatever fic I do write for it is usually meant to be some sort of personal canon for me, unlike in, say, SPN, in which I could write a ficlet about, dunno, Sam liking ice cream, easy, and not feeling like it was pointless. OR SOMETHING? I don't know, man.

Okay, I really have to do homework. But before:

1. My username is ______ because ______.

[livejournal.com profile] nekare, woot. When I was 16, I was going through my fangirl Japanese phse (AKA OMG NIHONGO KAWAII!), and wanted to create a Japanese-sounding nickname without the, you know, bother to actually check a dictionary. Then I started taking Japanese classes when I was 17 and realized what a lousy thought that'd been. Anyway, it stuck and I've been using it ever since - I'd probably react to it if someone called me that, it's become THAT much part of me. Ever since, I've found out it means SOMETHING in like, Hungarian or some other Eastern European language, but I still don't know what. Boo. I still like it, though, I like short and precise usernames.

2. My name is ______ because ______.

Angst Queen Extraordinaire, which is sort of an in-joke between [livejournal.com profile] moonix, [livejournal.com profile] terraneanblues and me, from when we were all neck deep into HP fandom and writing Remus/Sirius like mad. That and I've always been known for making my character's lives as painful as possible, lol.

3. My journal is titled ____ because ____.

*Dances the polka for Remus* haha. Everything started while commenting back and forth with [livejournal.com profile] pumpkin_pantry I said that, *dances the polka for Remus*, just that way, can't remember why, and then she, being her awesome usual self, went and drew ME dancing along with Remus and Sirius and it was just so FUN that I decided it was worthy of being a title. :3 It's been like, two years? since that, but I've always found that title incredibly amusing so I'm probably not changing it anytime soon.

4. My journal is subtitled ____ because ____.

The Journey of an Unbalanced Girl, because duh, that's what it is, lol.

5. My friends page is called ____ because ____.

Accomplices in Crime, because at the time I thought that was the proper way of saying it (shut up I was young) and since then I've grown attached to it, and wouldn't change it. Besides, it sounds funny.

6. My default userpic is ____ because ____.

Photobucket

Night Watch, Woo! Anyone that has been here for long enough knows that my last default icon was Shirley Manson from Garbage, but it was black and white, and I'm all about COLORS, so I decide that as lovely as Shirley is, I wanted something a bit more cheerful. This is probably my favorite scene in Night Watch (a wacky Russian fantasty movie, for anyone that doesn't know), which involves the subtitles exploding by Anton's head. Man, I love that. Anyway, I love the colors and it's just so pretty - it's been my default icon for almost two years, and it's definitely staying that. :3

ETA: I was feeling nostalgic, so there you go, my old icon! Aw, such good times. ♥

I find this too D: But I find MOST fic difficult if it's not in really easy-access fandoms like HP and SPN. Maybe I am too lazy? :/

Yeah, there's an amount of, what, comfort? in writing characters you know inside out.

Haha, no, maybe you're just too daunted by the idea? I know I usually am, and that it took me aaaages to write that PotC fic, for example...

AGH BOOTH WHY MUST YOU BE SO DIFFICULT.

There is, yeah. I dunno though, I mean. Unlike HP, I didn't read a lot of fic when I first got into SPN fandom. I pretty much just ... did my thing. I guess I just ... don't know what to write for Bones fandom. I don't even know where to start. Haven't found any stories yet that I need to tell.

I always wanted to know what your default icon is from, but I never thought to ask:P I've seen Night Watch, I guess I just don't remember that scene, lol!

Hee, it took me a bit of thinking to remember the exact scene when I first saw the icon, lol. And aw, now I feel like watching the movie again!

Sadly, no. ;__; That would've been fantastic, though.

Ah, me too. I've wanted to have a Night Watch + Day Watch marathon for a while now...
