Hello, all. My name is Carcharias, also known as foreversea on devantART. (you can also find me at http://, but I post the same stuff there as here, so sorry. ;)

Here I will be writing random fanfictions, mostly drabbles that I may or may not turn into multi-chapter epics (haha), and mostly Bleach drabbles, as it is my current obsession. You may also come across Axis Powers: Hetalia drabbles, since that is another obsession of mine. Also do not be surprised if some random series crops up; I have a lot of obsessions. :D

I would also like to recognize Night's Eclipse, my loverly beta. May she edit many of my awesome fics and make them even more awesome. (Plus she'll be writing her own stuff too, check her out!) :)

Since I am too lazy to type up another "About Me" thing for here, here is the one from my LJ:

I am a total fangirl. But! I am not insane. Rabid, yes. Insane with a nasty mean streak, no. I am normal-looking (with a sense of style!) and blonde, which is an entirely natural color, thank-you-very-much. Very high tolerance, except for people whose voices are like needles in my brain, people who type in all caps, fangirls/people with no life who make it their sole crusade to find every sign of support for the other ship and hurl nastiness at it, and people who blatantly use incorrect grammar (not in jest) and make no effort to change it (which is pretty much all of America. GO USA!)

Hmmm. I watch way too much TV, (mostly cartoons and animes/asian dramas I find on the web) I spend far too much time on the computer, and I have a tendency to obsess over fandoms and then express this obsession through my deviantART. I am a history dork, as well as a marine biology dork (see username; guess meaning, get a cookie!). I collect shoes and books. I have a complete crush on Joshua Bell, who plays my instrument beautifully, like crap players like me don't exist.

3 4 Pet Peeves when it comes to fanfiction:

1. Confusing "they're," "their," and "there;" confusing "its" and "it's" and confusing "your" and "you're." I can forgive it if it is a one-time slip-up, but if it's a regular thing, I can't handle the fic. It makes me borderline homicidal.

2. Switching tenses (outside of flashbacks and flash-forwards). This pisses me off so much. And it's confusing. Blarrrh ruins a fanfic.

3. Extreme OOC-ness. Just...no. Unless it's AU, and then still, I like to see at least a hint of canon characterization. If it's a crackfic/pair, I'll give it a little bit more leeway, but when it's just off the wall...no. Not happening.

4. Character-bashing. Don't do it.

Basically, an all around dork. Dorkdorkdork. With a very very good memory for trivia and other things, which pushes the important stuff out of my brain.

Motto: Fictional characters are better because they can't issue restraining orders.

So now, on to the eternal question: What Bleach pairings do I support? The fact of the matter is, it depends; I am not a crazed fangirl shipper who believes that no matter what, my ship is canon and I will take any little thing as gospel. You see, it is not the animators that decide pairings, nor the fans, nor even the characters themselves. It is Tite Kubo-sensei. And ultimately, I will support whatever pairing he puts down in black and white, so to speak.

That being said, I am not made of stone, and I will admit to leaning a bit on the IchiHime side (which is too bad, since too many IchiHime fanfics don't do the ship's potential maturity and depth justice). I tend to have a hard time visualizing Rukia's side of the IchiRuki equation (though I can wholeheartedly get behind RenRuki, though my love for Renji just might make me biased. :D ). However, I do not necessarily see Orihime's love as a permanent thing; more puppy love, though no less meaningful. Thus, I can also support IshiHime from time to time.

But really, (and this goes for any fandom), if a fanfic is well-written and keeps the characters in-character, I can actually manage crack pairings and any pairing (EXCEPT HitsuMatsu, ByakuyaxYachiru, ByakuyaxKenpachi, and anything with Mayuri. ESPECIALLY not Mayuri. Sorry If I offend). A good example of this is Phylira's Strictly Ballroom series on . I don't support more than half of those pairings, but I love her writing and the theme is great, so I can even gut through the HitsuMatsu fic. (Go check her out!)

Now, despite everyhting I just said, GrimmIchi is canon, dammit. And I won't have you tell me otherwise. XD
As is ByaRen. XD

So, you can probably guess that shounen-ai/yaoi is perfectly fine with me. And as for Hetalia, I can handle pretty much any ship. Except Russia pairings that are not RussiaxChina or BelarusxRussia (note the order, mwaha), Finland pairings that are not SwedenxFinland (OTP FTW), and America pairings that are not USxUK (other OTP FTW) or USxCanada (a more recent taste). But I will not condemn others.

Most of my other fandom pairings are canon-based.

That's about it! Hope you enjoy my fics! (coughReadAndReviewcough) :D
