Digimon: Reliable Friendship: A Jyou & Yamato Shrine

I am a 20 year old lesbian living in Texas. I've been a fan of Yamato forever-- since I was about 12 or 13, but it wasn't until my girlfriend of 4 years, Angel-chan, introduced me to the world of Jyou, or Jyoumato/YamaJyou for that matter, that I decided to make this site.

I am a writer, a girl gamer, and a college student. To date, I have 11 books (a few completed in handwriting and 1 inspired by this pairing). I also draw in my spare time and plan to release an artbook in my future. ^_^

My biggest influences in my art are Tetsuya Nomura and Yoshitoshi ABe.

I love dark anime (Lain, Evangelion, Hell Girl, and the like), as well as anime that has a serious tone but with humor thrown in (Digimon, Trigun, stuff like that) and my favorite manga often deals with Christian-themes or angels (Angel Sanctuary is the best example, I love Kaori Yuki's artwork.)

As far as Digimon goes...

· Who is your favorite character?

Isn't it obvious? Yamato, Koji, Ken, Touma, and Rika in that order. ^^;

· What are your favorite pairings?

YamatoxJyou (duh lol), YamatoxMimi, YamatoxTaichi, YamatoxKen, YamatoxTakeru, KojixKoichi.

· Do you collect the V-Pets? Cards? Play the games?

I collect the V-Pets, the blue ones in particular since Yamato's was that color and I love blue.

I don't play the card game even though I always wanted to. I do collect the cards, which ties in with my normal list of emo-Tamer collectibles.

I love the games, my favorites being Digimon World 1, Digimon World 3, and Digimon World: Dusk.

· Which V-Pet is your favorite?

The Digimon Twin L (especially the limited edition because it has MetalGarurumon on it.) I dislike that the compatibility is so limited, but that might change as newer V-Pets are released in Japan. I love the fact that Goamon's line, Gabumon's line, and Puppetmon are all availible on the Twin L. ;)

· What is your all-time favorite Digimon?

It's so hard to choose, but probably BlackMetalGarurumon. WhiteMetalGarurumon and AncientGarurumon are really pretty, though.

Submissions:

· Accepting? At this time I am accepting submissions! Here's the lowdown:

· What characters? The fic & art must be completely centered around Yamato, Jyou, their family, Gabumon, or Gomamon.

· Pairings? The fic & art is preferred to include YamatoxJyou, but no other pairings are accepted. I do take general character / gag fan fiction, but it must contain anything listed under "What characters?"

· Format (.html, .jpeg?)?

· For fan fiction: Please make all works in .html (aka Webpage) format. If you send .doc, it won't be accepted because it is very difficult to copy into Microsoft Frontpage.

· For fan art: PLEASE, no images larger than 800x600 at this time. I am on a dial up connection and cannot handle anything larger. JPEG ONLY. I will not accept PNG format.

· Rating? I will take G, PG, PG-13, NC-17, and R rated material.
