| Hullo, 
I have known about GC for a while, and viewed forums before to get info and what everyone was dishing about. I finally decided to register and try to join in the forum fun. Feorin is my gamer tag I try to stick with. In RL my name is Stephanie, but Feo or Feorin will be good for forum purposes!
About me, I am a park ranger, environmental science major; born, raised, and living in Florida. As much as I am a nerd about ecosystems and habitats, that is just really a new direction for my old friend obsession which has its roots in anime, manga, and anything Japanese at this point really. I also love books and read relentlessly: fantasy, YA, Epics, some romance, and Sci-fi. Refer to my Goodreads Profile for extensive lists. And my husband and I game together, currently ESO, but Wow in the past and Minecraft, other random adventures. I also obsess about regular geek things: doctor who, SN, sherlock, startrek and wars, serenity, older stuff probably no one has heard of.
Of course that story starts like so many other US girls with watching Sailor moon every afternoon as a pre-teen/teen/collage/and-forever-and-always. Could you imagine my shock and awe when I discovered there were outer senshi! Characters beyond the show that I had to go onto my AOL Dial-up internet, that I could only have for an hour a day, to find out about Sailor Saturn? Not to mention that the thing I watch in secret every weekday originated from a comic book, and that it was called Manga? And that this guy had translated it all on a website I read religiously? And that it was all from Japan! Obsession began, we call it fangirl-ing or Otaku now but those are just pretty words for our unending obsession aren't they?
My Original source for the manga <-- Has anyone else ever used this site, it has been online since the mid 90's, he only ever took down the SM material as kodansha finally licensed and distributed accurate translations. I is still a good place to get Miss Rain and earlier manga translations. I use to read just the translations, until I found original Japanese scans and I would read them side by side on the computer! Oh how far we have come!
It only got worse when I found other people in high school who also were as obsessed as me and started a role playing binder that passed around. I, at that point expanded to obsess about anything Anime/manga/Japanese. I love the language and have suffered through many episodes of DBX, Naturo, InuYasha, Gundam, Ranma 1/2, Evangelion, and countless other animes just because! My real love besides SM is anything CLAMP or Ghibli Studios, also Slayers really did it for me in the kick ass girl department.
I figured with the Sailor Moon Crystal coming out I want to be in company of like minded people, to discuss changes, new themes, what they could have done, or how awesome and perfect it is. I hope to get to know everyone and be active in the forums. Thank you all for reading, I type a lot!

| I am still digging my way through all the forum threads, I found you guys tried to start a goodreads group! I am interested in that, I posted a discussion, see here! @Yunie - Yay environmental geology!@Artemis - No I have not watched the musicals... they always seemed over the top, I did see a lot of the live action, I liked the drastic change in plot lines and manga influences!@Kayariah - There is a small thread about Minecraft! Maybe we can all talk about it! Comment here!
Also, Kayriah, I love Florida heat I get all dry and uncomfortable anywhere else, and I hate, winter. I am a summer child all the way. My favorite characters are probably Haruka and Makoto. Makoto because she was the first one I identified with, and Haruka, because in my Highschool friends group back in the day me and my best friend were assigned the roles of Haruka and Michiru. And because of this fanfic: Dark Skies, Bright Heavens. I am struggling to re-identify with characters now that I am older and super obsessed with nature. There is no good character in sailor moon that is really one with nature; Makoto tries but she is very much a Jupiter/Zeus avatar with lightning and such. I love plant character more now these days. Treents, Dyrads, and protectors of the forest kinda stuff. Anyone know a good popular Original Character or Alt Universe nature person. I am not up on all the new fanfiction. |

| Awesome, So thats like Sarasota or more south like Charlotte harbor? It takes me an hour to drive out to Myakka, which I love to hike at, and Oscar Scherer.
Let me know if you go to any cons up here in central FL. I hit up Metro, Mega, and AFO every year. At least I try too. I have some friends on staff at Metro and AFO so its more social for me than anything. |
