  • Location
    Japan, actually. Amazingly.
  • Personal Motto
    It's all a show, I really should relax.
  • Interests
    Been loyal to the gameboy console my whole life. Deeply entrenched into the Pokemon fandom to where I'll buy anything Gamefreak puts their stamp on no matter how bad of a glitchy mess their games may be. *cough*pokemongo*cough*

    Recently got into Fire Emblem & Phoenix Wright's games.
    But mostly else, I try to practice my drawing & reading. Other then alot of listening to the radio & YouTube with occasional Netflix, not much else. Haven't so much as seen any television in over a decade.

    As to topics I like, I'm usually prone to the supernatural, magical or fantastical. I'm also quite the rabid DragoNerd & am incapable of viewing anything they do as bad!
    I'm quite interested in biology & sciences and a big animal lover. Though... if the 22 dogs plus more pets I've had over the years has taught me anything, they're quite messy too... so taking care of said animals isn't all that high on the list, heh.

      Guess I'm NOT the only fellow to not only carry this exact spelling of this name & also be a fan of tentacles.Seems he's some fellow with a rather wonderful talent for 3d computor modelling or whathaveyou.

        ...Still... he's no draconequus... Would have thought the old word combined with the off-kilter spelling woulda made me one of a kind... eh.

      First one's called Thief's Covenant. Ari Marmell is the author. Or you could just Google 'widdershins book' and stare at all the 10-15 books that come up in the immediate search results.

      And what's with this 'missy' business, hmm?

      EDIT: Even Sir Terry Pratchett talked about 'widdershins' in the Discworld novels. It's what he called the direction on the Disc that went against its spin direction. Like it or not, it's actually quite a commonly-used word in fantasy novels.

      And Sir Terry definitely liked tentacles.

      Well, y'ah. Widdershins does mean basically counterclockwise, so I'm well aware of that being a word. ....

         ....MISSY!                      Hey, sometimes Its hard for me to see something as vague as gender, eh what?

       

         " And Sir Terry definitely liked tentacles."     Ccccitation, Needed.

      First five or so hits are from the Discworld wiki, talking about various tentacled eldritch-abomination beings. That specific class of entity is mentioned more often in his books than many of his human characters.

      Also, 'widdershins' means something closer to 'against the natural order of things' than 'anticlockwise', especially as used nowadays in fantasy novels.
