Natalie Baan (aka N)

Sign: Aries

Blood type: No idea

Appearance: long brown hair, blue eyes
(The picture is of me in my neko costume. I don't really look much like that. :)

Likes: writing, reading, bishounen/biseinen, watching anime (especially with friends), walking in the woods, natural beauty, all sorts of lovely things that would be too tedious in a list, strong female characters, empathic male characters, Macintosh computers, and, of course, my cat. Oh, and did I mention writing?

Dislikes: computer crashes, rushing about, falling behind on e-mail, tentacles, yaoi fics (or in fact any other kind) that neglect or abuse the female characters of a series, bad characterization, bad grammar, web sites that mock my choice of browser or computing platform <growls>, stress, and my own perfectionism.

Fav. Manga: Tokyo Babylon, X, Clover, CardCaptor Sakura

Fav. Anime: Please Save My Earth

Fav. Characters: Subaru Sumeragi, Seishirou Sakurazuka, Issei Nishikiori, Rin Kobayashi, Sakura Kinomoto, Yukito Tsukishiro/Yue, Omi Tsukiyono, Aya Fujimiya, Ken Hidaka, Youji Kudou, Nuriko, Lan, Sohma Yuki, Sohma Kyou, Celena Schezar, Nokoru Imonoyama, Narsus, Duo Maxwell, Vash the Stampede, Kamina Ayato, Shitow Haruka. (There are many other characters that I love--too many to list here--but this'll do for a start. Note: Because a certain character's name appears American-style in the original material--personal name first--I've done them all that way to avoid confusion.)

Fav. Pairings: [M/M] Seishirou/Subaru, Omi/Ken, [M/F] Van/Hitomi, Sakura/Syaoran, Ayato/Haruka, [M/M/F] Heero/Duo/Relena, Yuki/Tohru/Kyou

In my nonfanfic-writing life, I work as an editor for a magazine on mythology and religious traditions. I spend most of my time commuting, staring at computer screens, spoiling my cat, and trying to coax my orchids to bloom.

Thanks for reading!
