About

Ask me things!

Twenty-something English graduate student in Alaska (ask me about it! I've lived here most of my life, including five years in Barrow, the northernmost community in the US) who seems to be in a holding pattern waiting for life to start--rather, less "waiting" and more "omg so busy I must be out of my miiiiind," repeat ad nauseum. Writer, reader, wannabe novelist, hopeful cynic, traveler (up to 15 countries! *fist pump*), Ravenclaw, Browncoat, Whovian (Ten will always be my Doctor), member of way too many other fandoms, proud geek and gamer girl, etc. (favorites so far include the Mass Effect, Portal, and Fallout series, and Red Dead Redemption). Politically conservative-to-moderate feminist (yes, it's possible). Living with clinical depression since at least 2004. Somewhere around the demisexual end of the asexual spectrum. Possibly a vampire.

You can find me in multiple elsewheres, in varying degrees of regularity: in my writing journal, mostly for fanfic and fanmixes; last.fm; and Twitter (same username for Echo Bazaar, where I misunderstood the character creation for some reason and picked the wrong gender), among others. I'm thestarvelingcat on PSN, which is mostly only relevant if you want to find me in Red Dead Redemption multiplayer, and 100indecisions on Steam, as well as at Playfire.

I also run F Yeah Fireflies and F yeah Raspberries, which are...pretty much what they say on the tin, as well as another one for one of my novels-in-progress, and I co-run the Red Dead Redemption blog the gunslinger's lament.

So yeah, there’s a bit in the agent storyline where you disguise yourself as a robot. Naturally I did some robot-dancing.

CATNIP. UNTO. MY. SOUL. (Okay, Nar Shadaa is annoying because there’s tons of running around and not a huge amount of diversity in the environments, but…grungy sci-fi city! SO PRETTY.)

Unfortunately my smuggler has also traded her (short but still great) brown coat for…whatever this is. Storyline, please give me something cooler-looking soon.

Who’s a badass? Well, my smuggler, of course.

…and then I decided to jump from the mouth of a huge hangar set into a cliff because I couldn’t see the bottom and thought maybe I’d survive, so I fell into the nothing to my death. But then I revived at a med station outside so it was a shortcut after all. (I’m very lazy.)

This is a tiny part of Nar Shadaa, a planetwide (I think) city that’s all futuristic grunge and sci-fi slums and neon lights and it is like CATNIP UNTO MY SOUL. SO PRETTY OMG.

“Hello, descendant! I greet you with some light torture and violence! Now let’s be pals!” “It’s…nice to meet you?”

I haven’t played my smuggler that much and I feel weirdly guilty about it—well, I feel weirdly guilty neglecting any of my characters, but especially her, because…Yahtzee tried a smuggler and thought the storyline was really boring, which made me go all protective because at the very least I really love my smuggler’s face, and I don’t know.
