Hey there, dead horse. Time for your yearly beating!
I got particularly bored (aka having to do an article for science class), and decided to have some Conspiracy Theory fun. Check it out! Cat's webpage still exists! Some choice selections from her site, which is covered with enough !!! and ^_^ to make me mildly nauseous:

* The fanfic "library" was updated in June.
* She still refers to herself as "The Lady Aryun"
* Manages to combine all of the most horrid backgrounds on the internet with the most hideous colored text.
* Includes bonus painful midis!
* Half of the page is written in third person, as I'm fairly sure she doesn't actually have a sister.


Selections from the library, "Where I house fanfictions of any genera." Still not even the vaguest idea of spelling....

* "This Story is about two of Cat's most famous, or infamous, characters: Erdric and Aryun." .... and she's still entirely egotistical!
* "Hurah!!! Cat's finally started to re-write her infamous epic: Life of a Phoenix! Here is the story of when Aryun meets Erdric and how things come to pass. A wickedly cool story if I've ever seen one!" I'm looking for a !!1!! in this rant somewhere. There just has to be. There are so many exclamation points. Did I mention that this particular pieces is 23 chapters long?
* "Life of a Phoenix: The First Time I Loved Forever" Wow. Points for managing to come up with the lamest, most melodramatic title ever.
* "In this, he's paired with a very strange woman who never tells him her name, and no, she's not Aryun. *laughing* The only name she gives my favorite Masho, is Shinare. Death." And she even admitted her sueness. How quaint.
* "This is a little piece I wrote at like 2 AM after I got home for work. It features Dante Sparda from Devil May Cry ^^ *waggles tail* Cute little devil! Anyway, have fun 'cause it was a kick to write it. In short: Date deals with Harem Life." Okay, *first* of all... "Date"? *bashes head in with keyboard* Secondly, and more importantly, *HAREM*?

and she has a lemon page... featuring... who else... *her*. Includes such timeless self-insertion (in the most literal way possible) classics as:

* "The Wedding Vows - Erdric X Aryun - Their Wedding Night. UP AND COMPLETE!!"
* "Trust in me - Paring Cecil X Aryun (part of a huge story that I'm not sure I'll put up. I probably will *grinning*)"
* "Love in Wutai (working with title) - Paring - Sephiroth X Narice. Seph finds companionship durring the Wutai war" ... Did I mention that Narice is another of her pseudonyms?

Aw, she has a Cocker Spanile.

*too amused*

So which of her stories should I report to Marysues first? XD

Ahh, Cat-bashing. ^^ It always brightens an otherwise shitty day. Thank you for posting that. <3 <3 <3

"Life of a Phoenix: The First Time I Loved Forever" Have I mentioned the bitch stole my name? Oh, and the title sucks, too. ^^ That might have looked cool when I was, like... ten. Now it's just dumb.

Ahh, the more things change, the more they stay the same. On the downside, Beth saw that and said that she now no longer feels bad about her writing. This is a bad thing - I fully expect to see more Jasmine x Jewel x Xyroki x Vash x Wolfwood x Aya x Heero x Duo x Trowa x Quatre x Wufei x Zechs x Wing Gundam x Tsuzuki x Amelia x Goku x Ayame x Hatori x Shigure x Greg Ayers from her any day now. (be thankful she doesn't tell you about *her* Mary Sues. Why do I live with two huge Sue writers?! X_x God hates me)

God doesn't hate you...he's keeping you strong. You're building up a tolerance (NOT acceptance, a tolerance) and you'll be a stronger fan for it. Also, you're getting plenty of advice on how NOT to write. Think of it that way.

As for that...odeous heap of garbage that is that woman's site...I'm glad I never knew her. Cause I would have beaten her over the head with a frying pan. Even when I was a little ten year old Forever Knight writer, my stuff was better. And I didn't sue! And certainly not to this level! That's one thing I can thank FK for...the only Sue we had in our fandom was Susan Garrett, and she's a damn skippy good writer ::glomps her S.Garrett signed bookmark from way back when:: even if she did destroy the Caddy periodically...

Sueing for fun and pleasure = not so bad.
Sueing for an audience = ICK.
