Hey there, anon! I’m quite surprised you asked me this question, but I’m thankful that you did. :)

*rubs my hands together* I got a few, really good fanfics to recommend. Some are new, some are old. Most of them are Franticshipping ones (where Ruby and Sapphire are in character), but I will also recommend my friends’ fanfics too. And it’s obvious I mostly read the franticshipping ones, hehe… well… THEY’RE MY OTP OKAY. I JUST LOVE THEIR FRIENDSHIP/RELATIONSHIP AND AHHHHH. T-T

I’m new to AO3 so most of these are from FFN since I’ve been there for five years with that old account, but don’t visit that account. It’s abandoned and an embarrassment and the fact that I have a crossover fanfic there with 32 chapters that hasn’t been updated for 4 years. XD

Franticshipping fanfics:

Lost Fragments - yeah, that’s the current sort of franticshipping fanfic I am working on. It’s a modern AU fanfic and it’s dedicated to my amazing friend and sister and the number one Pokespe nerd for me. (Hey @fallan-angel , hehe. *hugs Fallan* ^^). I really need to control this habit of “literally bragging the people whom I admire and respect” to everyone. I’ve published the first two chapters and I’m currently writing chapter 10. I’ll try to update this monthly, though, hoping college won’t get in the way. I know I’m kinda cheating for promoting my own fanfic, hehe, so I’m sorry for that. But it would totally mean a lot to me if you read this. I have some other franticshipping fanfics in my FFN profile but I think most of them are an embarrassment, hehe. Plus, I need to edit those grammatical errors, so it really is embarrassing.

Canvas Of Life - another modern AU franticshipping fanfic (for the second chapter) and a specialshipping one (in the first chapter). It’s feelsy. I love this. It’s amazing. They are all in character and Arceus it’s just beautiful. The author also had a lot of great Spe fanfics in there too, so check it out as well. :D

Ruby Tuesdays - another modern AU franticshipping fanfic, hehe. This is beautiful. You could say that this and Canvas of Life guided me to write LF correctly. Setting the characters in a modern AU is a toughie, but these authors managed to do it beautifully. ^^

Amnesiac -  THIS. IS. BEAUTIFUL. It uses deep vocabulary but it is one of the most beautifully written franticshipping fanfics out there. It’s just simply amazing. Even Adex agrees with me on this one, hehe. (Well, since he also reviewed in this fanfic. Don’t read my review, though. I was a naive kid back then. XD)

House Rivalry - A Harry Potter AU frantic fanfic, hehe. It is also on going. Though it may have some grammar problems, since the author did mention that English is not their first language, it’s still a beautiful fanfic. Ruby and Sapphire are in character. Read it. It’s beautiful.

Maps I Must Keep - It’s beautiful. No words needed.

Other Spe fanfics:

The Last Beast - TLB is an action-packed fanfic written by my good friend, a writer whom I admire and respect, Totally Not Adex. Adex is a great writer. TLB is an amazing fanfic. A bloody masterpiece as I would like to call it. Although you better prepare for some deaths, especially the death of your fave dexholders. *looks at TLB C10* I AM STILL STANDING AND ADEX KNOWS WHAT WILL DESTROY ME AS TLB PROGRESSES. *cries in a corner*

Somehow - A short, luckyshipping fanfic written by @gresh113​. It’s short but beautiful. Go and read it.

Undercover In Love - written by @pokedex-holder-pink​. No words needed. It is a great corruptedshipping fanfic. Check it out. ^^

@pokespefangirl​ had also written great fanfics on her FFN profile. Do check it all out. ^^

Of course, if you’re looking for some Pokespe Fairy Tale fanfics, go and read @falcon-of-the-fall ’s works.

Okay, I may have suggested too many fanfics, but I assure you, they’re all great. :D

Money. Well I spend about 40 to 50 bucks a day on smokes and food and copious amounts of coffee. I try to limit my spending daily. And I dislike wasting anything, especially food and drink. And then for shelter, water, electricity, wifi and phone... well daily that's about another 35-40 bucks a day. And then my psych meds is another $300 a month. So let's calculate that. That's my basic needs. And then I have to pay my taxes and insurance. I don't use credit cards. I don't drive, so no car or car insurance and gas.

I just need enough to cover my basic necessities. As for clothing, I'm hoping I'll have clean underwear and a working brassiere again.

I try to keep it simple. I'm low-maintenance as opposed to high-maintenance. Please don't refer to me as a BASIC Biatch though. :P

My belief system. Well I was brought up Chratholian - Christian and Catholic by a Hebrew-Judean mother. I studied at Parochial academies which included study of the Good Book and essential cathechism. By the time I was 30, I didn't talk to the Good Lord as much because he's quite busy and he's for "little." Like Santa Claus. He's also for little. But usually I'm having heated arguments with El Diablo and His donkey. No, I don't normally attend any temple service. If I have little, it would be for them. However, I often spend time examining my conscience and any infractions I unwittingly make. I studied World Religions and have attended services at a Mosque, a Synagogue, A Greek Orthodox temple and a Buddhist temple. I also spent time with Native American Indians when I was little. Eons ago.

But I used to say I'm a "Lightworker".

Oh yes I will also watch films and tv programming from the US and across the pond, but 1980s-to 1990 and under. As well as music and literature. But I'm going to read more non-fiction and bioepics.

~emmaruth

yes, I will learn how to draw, illustrate, and paint better. and some form of martial art. Especially Wing Chun. But I'm quite old, so we'll go slowly.

~emmaruth

as for social media - Livejournal, Dreamwidth, blogger, deadjournal, insanejournal, tumblr, pinterest, instagram, and sometimes twitter

no, i don't think i'll touch weheartit... the kids there are junior high.

and of course my website, linkedin, and the FB reserved for my generation... Gen X.

oh and youtube.

and mixit.com or something like that. like reddit.

~emmaruth

What films will I watch? Foreign films from 1990 and under. As for current... what's available for 50 and over and receives critical acclaim like "Oppenheimer." As for televised programming... 1980 and under. I won't peruse anything allotted for younger generations. And that is the same for any literature or reading material. Music, well I do like to sample from current artists just to know the zeitgeist vibe, but I'll be listening to music from my heyday and classical.

Diablo's Whiskers... that should be the name of a Spider Tree.
