[Excerpt from 'The Characters' Guide to Fanfiction Authors, v. 3.3']

Name: Meredith [Bakura's Note: Apparently she does actually use her real first name. "Kinda regret it now," she says. "I could have something cool and impersonal like 'Umi no Houou'..."]
Gender: Female
Age: 14
Mainly Writes In: Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokémon
Refers To/Writes Occasionally: Sailor Moon, ER, M*A*S*H, Cowboy Bebop, Card Captor Sakura (manga), Calvin & Hobbes, Diane Duane
Favorite Characters: Ash Ketchum, Yugi/Yami, Hotaru Tomoe, Syaoran Li [BN: She added more, but amended it, saying "they wouldn't recognise 'em anyways".]
Types of Fics: Humor to Angst to the occasional Romance. Hard to pin down. All _too_ versatile, you know the type. --;
Mary Sues & Self-Insertions: None. [BN: We think. She's got four original characters now; hopefully none are Mary-Sues. Wouldn't want to mess up her slightly decent reputation.]
Yaoi/Yuri: Hard to say. She probably will, or _might_, but she tends to settle for the absolutely borderline. It _isn't_, exactly, but it wouldn't take much imagination...
Favorite Couplings: Ash/Misty, Misty/Gary, Ash/Sabrina, one-sided S+S, Y/Y, Mai/Joey
Least Favorite Characters: Haruka/Amara, Michiru/Michelle, Erika [BN: I told her that this essentially meant characters you bash or would be willing to. Amazingly, she had none for Yu-Gi-Oh!.]
SUMMARY: One of the ones with what she calls 'artistic integrity'. She tries to write good stuff, and oddly enough, succeeds. Debatably, of course. She's one of the _writers_. She says that, to her amazement, she's heard she might actually make it with this someday. Pretty good... An honest nutcase. A motley fool. You know?
Weaknesses: Should you ever somehow find yourself with need to banish/insult this authoress (very unlikely), you could a.) insult her not-very-good looks b.) insult the USPS or c.) Most potent of all, say that what she's doing is egotistical. (Arrogance is her greatest fear. Also, with that issue and not-so-wonderful self-esteem, no matter _how_ you say she's being arrogant, she'll likely believe you.)
WARNINGS: She is dangerously smart (though she'll hate me for saying so), but the _main_ warning is: she comes up with these things WAY too easily. Two lines from 'Hill Street Blues'; playing around with one line of a song; and most disturbingly (to those of my homeland), a quote from 'Pokémon: MASTER'. I daren't repeat the line for fear it might give her the inspiriation she needs to clear up the vague muddle of ideas... It would be exceedingly hard to vex her to the point of anger, but if you did, she would make a formidable foe. STAY AWAY.

Would I really? Wow. ^^; I _still_ sound egotistical, dangit! X_X
