Hello. Sho, tis Kylin N. from Amazon.

I feel it fair to warn you that nerding is what I do, and I've got quite the potty mouth.

Why don't you take a peek over at my page, and lemme know if you're still interested in being LJ friends? I take an almost obsessive interest in niche things, and I witter on about them endlessly.

I'm a fan of nerding on things, and potty mouths don't bother me as long as they're funny. And such that yours is terribly, terribly funny, I wanna come over to your side of the LJ playground.

As you can see from my page, I don't have anything meaningful to say on here, but I do enjoy the ramblings and writings of others, and I look forward to following yours. :D

Okaaaaay, I'll friend you back, but first I have to warn you I write fanfiction, and that in the last year, I've talked about it a lot under f-lock.

If you're cool with that, I'll tell you what kind pairing and fandom I write for.

**Looks manic**

I also really like ponies. That's my mare in the icon. Is that your kitteh?

[a_hoffman79]

Now I will allow myself to feel special and fuzzy inside b/c you friended me back. I'm so clueless about how to use LJ wisely that I don't even really know what f-lock means, but please do enlighten me with your wisdom, sensai. I would be much intrigued to learn about your fanfic goodness.

I like ponies too, but probably not as much as you do (as given away from your dressagegrrrl name). Your bay mare there is beautiful! Yes, that's one of the kittens in my icon; her name is Solstice, and she's trying to provoke us to elevate her to goddess status there in that pic but looking like an Egyptian sun goddess. (Cats never forget their previous titles.) Kitten #2 should show in the icon now; that's Lily, who is full of spunk and cuddles and lots of puking on the floors.

BTW - I meant to mention this earlier. I love the artwork for the Princess and the Pea above. It reminds me a lot of Kay Nielsen. Have you seen any of his stuff? Here's an example from The Twelve Dancing Princesses.

Wow, the two artists DO have a very similar feel! I'd never seen anything by Dulac before, but the picture is snatched from the blog on which it was the writing prompt. Thanks for introducing me to Nielsen.
