Let's see. Basic facts. I can do this. Call me Circa.

I'm an English major, currently a junior. I have other things I ought to be writing, but this is honestly more fun (most of the time). My girlfriend got me into Friendship is Magic and, while I resisted at first, I have since given in and joined the herd. I do fanart too, so check out my dA account if you're so inclined.

I'm multishipper, and I'm not overly dedicated to any one ship. In particular, I tend to enjoy (in no order): TwiLuna, Twilestia, AppleDash, TwiDash, RariJack, TwiLuna, and LunaAnythingWrittenWell.

Generally speaking: if it can be written believably, I will have some level of appreciation for it. I like receiving links and recommendations too, if you've seen something you think is really good.

Shipping hate is stupid. If you don't like it, don't read it. On a similar note, arguing that anypony is straight/gay/bi/secretly a platypus against an author who is clearly writing them with a different personal interpretation is basically pointless. Your perspective is respected. Have an internet. Love & Tolerate.

Stuff I Write


Anything but Textbook

Twilight only became an RA to get the single and avoid her insane ex-roommate while she figured out which major to declare. The plan sounded simple... on paper.

Her RA partner is crazy, the music majors down the hall are probably going to kill each other, the new astronomy professor is her mentor's estranged younger sister, and one of her residents is flirting with her in an extremely distracting manner.

Meanwhile, Rarity's stuck with a bumpkin cowgirl roommate who embodies all the small town “charm” she's spent her life escaping. College was supposed to be her opportunity to start her socialite fashion career and leave all that behind... right?

Just got back from vacation with my family. The response to Anything but Textbook has absolutely whelmed me, and I'm glad that, generally, people seem to have liked it. I'm catching up on comments now that I'm back, and I appreciate them all.

Oh, and apparently I'm employed now (or will be. or something.) but I'll have chapter two up soon. Like I'd let anything dumb like a job get in the way of updating fanfiction.

Haha, I figured I might as well make the bio fun. Thanks! :pinkiehappy:

I know humanized fics get a bad rap, but I'd love it if you took a look sometime. (and yeah, I'm an artist too- figured I ought to be drawing my own cover art at least)

There miiiiiight be some Rarijack. Just because I like a ship doesn't mean it's right for every story I'm writing. They have a great dynamic regardless of romantic crap going on.

You're welcome for the watch! I keep meaning to comment when I read. I'll try to do better in the future! :twilightblush: (For the record, your AppleDash project is Awesome!!)

I read your bio and cracked up at "secretly a platypus." And I totally agree.

I don't normally do humanized, but I did notice your fic because of the awesome cover art, (you drew that? Amazing.)  

I think I'll check it out sometime. I'm not the biggest TwiDash fan (and was I getting hints of RariJack from the description?) but as long as it's not FlutterDash I can give it a go. :ajsmug:

Oh, and thanks for the watch.

Seriously any critique is appreciated lol. All I've gotten is a couple of people who said they found issues and didn't give details, and about 100 others who just said awesome or boo rarijack.

Haha, you're welcome! I'm happy to point stuff out as it comes up in your stories. I like to pride myself in being a good editor, but I tend to avoid over-editing in my fimfic comments unless the author has expressed an interest in actually getting critique. Looking forward to seeing more from you, it's all been enjoyable thus far.

Thanks for stalking me mr. Awesome!

Oooh, English major eh? Let me know if I messed up bad anywhere :twilightsheepish:

I've been working without an editor, and my English courses in college were minimal.

Oh, wow, thanks! I really enjoyed reading your works, and look forward to more.

I only just joined the fandom here, but it seems really nice so far.
