Introductions - Please Introduce Yourself HERE!

[warrior_barbie]

Hey guys!

I've been lurking around for quite some time now and I haven't properly introduced myself yet. What a shame...

So, the basic stuff: I'm Eszter from Hungary, I grew up in a small town in the South and moved to Budapest, the capital city of Hungary about 10 years ago. Currently I'm a teacher at a language school but I'm also working on obtaining my Master's degree. I live with my girlfriend and our pets, and I love spending time with my friends - they always keep me busy.

I've been a Buffy fan since I was about 12 years old, and re-watching the show just recently got me acquainted with this site so I'm really happy to be here! I've found some fantastic works on this board and I'm truly amazed by the talent of some of the authors. I still have a lot of catching up to do but reading your stories is my new obsession for sure

[Laragh]

Hi Eszter!

Great to see new people, especially long time W/T lovers finding this place!

[Once&FutureDeadpool]

Hello, everyone.

I'm Maggie. My brother asked me to create this account to help him do a role playing bit or something. I'm not too sure. Need to look at his script again. He said all my posts in his Pens story should be "In Character."

Hi,

I'm Jinny - aka the Mulberry Thief - and I'm the proudest little Australian this side of Toowoomba. Years ago I was closeted and writing secret stories on my laptop and yesterday I found the USB - so I was thinking about letting them out into the wilds. Absolutely loving reading all the marvellous creations hiding away here in cyber space.

Thanks,

Jin

Hi! My name is Leah but I really dislike my name (every introduction resulted in Star Wars discussions) so everyone calls me Lay. I was adopted in Bucharest, Romania as a child and I currently live in the fanfreakingtastic state of California. I am ridiculously gay. I just wanted to express my gratitude to the people who've kept this website going for so long! It's 2017 now, and I think it's the COOLEST thing that this site is still going strong. I discovered Buffy (more importantly Willow/Tara) along with this site back in 2012. I recently got back into W/T thanks to re-reading Neverland. I figured it was about time I registered so I could leave reviews and thank the moderators for all of their hard work! I also write, but am extremely shy when it comes to posting my work for all to see. SO EXCITED TO BE HERE!!

[Laragh]

Hey Lay! Glad to have you here If you ever decide to post we'd love to see your work! Don't worry, kittens only bite when asked

We hope to keep this board active for many, many years to come!

[drlloyd11]

Glad to meet you Luckycharms!

Hi Kittens! I thought I would re-introduce myself since I haven’t been on the board in 15 years. I’m Chris, board name Tiggrscorpio! I delurked in December 2001 and was an active Pens writer for about 5 years. Some of my fics were recently reposted thanks to Laragh. Several others I haven’t been able to locate. If any Kittens have them they could PM me with copies, I would be grateful. I know I had a few stories unfinished. My lengthy furlough has me dusting them off and wanting to revisit the magic that is Willow & Tara. I was fortunate to meet several Kittens at the absolutely disastrous but hilarious Friar Tuck Inn convention. I was also lucky to have the opportunity to meet and interview Amber at that convention with a few other Kittens. Awesome memory! Very happy this board is still here. Thank you xita and all the moderators!

[Tarababy77]

Wow! It was my pleasure to see that this community is still thriving and bring a huge smile to many faces.

With a short week ahead, I found myself reminiscing about my two favorite witches... and with that, I'm diving back into a world that I miss dearly.

Not exactly in an introduction but more of a welcome back. Thank you all for your hard work and contributions. I'm very appreciative. Take Care

[Floyd]

I'm another re-visitor from back in the day. it's been around ten years since my last confession..... Ah... I mean visit to the kitten board.

Hi again. We don't seem so active but I'm glad it still exists & I think we are still needed.

I know for a fact lots of 'newbies' still find us, just don't necessarily post. I will always fight for us to stay live

[Rutkowski]

Hi peeps! New member but looong-time lurker here. This forum is where I actually got into fanfics in the first place. W/T is my favorite media couple in, well, ever and I've railed for what feels like years about the stupidity of post-Entropy Buffy.

So when I finally started writing fanfics in November on AO3 I kinda wanted to post them here as well because here's where I started out with both Tillow fandom and fanfics, even if it was only as a lurker.

Thanks Laragh for helping me out with setting up the account. Shoulda contacted staff earlier when I realized there was no register account button anymore.

I'm a married dude of 33 with two kids, 11 and (soon to turn) 9. Both are Buffy fans but our youngest is a huge Tillow fan as well and has gone deep into the nerddom which makes us proud.

Hello, Kittens! I have come to realize that I never posted a new intro since coming back to the board. My name is Chance. I have been around the board since the ezboard days way back when. I haven't posted any fics of my own since back then (cannot even find them nor my old handle). I created a new account a few months ago after being told I cannot lurke in silence any longer. Darn. Hopefully I will do more than Beta and actually post one of my own. I am just glad to see this board still surviving after so long.

[Rebecca Ashling]

I have returned to the Kitten Board. The High Programmer (All Hail!) has provided me with a new password and I'm thinking of inflicting a Buffy/Worm crossover on you as soon as I can plan how. See you, anon, Kittens!

Welcome back! It is always good to see Kittens from way back when find their way home! There is lots of good stuff to read and reasons to stay around

[fallingcosmos]

Hey, I'm Will-- 17 yr. old lesbian from Oregon (U.S). Found this board by going through my cousin's old fic archive recommendations from the aughts. I'm a pretty active reader, but I write sometimes as well.

I'm a huge nerd, a bit of a witch, and I love old things. When I'm not busy being a student I'm a teacher for after-school/summer programs. I can be found online under "falling-cosmos/fallingcosmos" mainly, but go under a few other names too! (darkwoods, rougeler, and jadefox namely). Active mostly on fic archives, AO3, Ff.net, and mailing lists that got turned into google groups before I could use the internet

[Laragh]

Welcome Will! Glad to have you!

[shakenvoice]

Hello! I'm Kaly, Australian, 22yo, and I watched BTVS and ATS for the first time in June 2022 and have been obsessively reading fanfics ever since. If you want to find me on ff.net and Ao3 I'm there under the same username as here

[teeth]

hello, i'm teeth (all lowercase)! longtime lurker, new user... used to read all the stories on here back when i was a young teen coming to terms with my gayness... now that i'm finally super duper out i decided to come back and finally make an account! so glad to see this site is still up. i'm a writer in theory but in practice i just like lurking. excited to be here

[Laragh]

Welcome kaly and teeth! Lurkers are welcome, encouraged even! Get a nice feel for the board and post whenever you feel you want to!

[KatherynneTheGreat]

Howdy y'all!

I'm Kat and I've been a long time lurker here!

Currently in the process of writing an epic Willow/Tara saga spanning 10 stories! The girls will have their happy ending!

About me, I live in Hawaii, I have 2 black cats, and I'm in a cybersecurity program for college!

Team Tillow all the way!!

[Laragh]

Welcome Kat!! Looking forward to seeing your epic on the board!

[Amberwitch]

Hi! I hope it's okay to re-introduce myself, I saw that some others have done so. I'm Sarah, and it's been 13 years since the last time I logged in and I've missed it (I have been lurking, though!). I'm working on a fic - which is really what led me back here, thank you to Laragh - so I hope to post the first part of that soon. If I feel brave enough.

I'm a super chatty neurospicy witch with an art degree that I don't use.

[AutomatonFlux]

Hello Kittens,

I know today is likely a weird, hard day for a lot of us, Americans at least. Probably why I'm feeling motivated to finally introduce myself. I found this board when I was a teenager (I'm 36 now) and though I only ever lurked, it was always a source of joy, a place i felt less alone.

In a fit of nostalgia, my brain uncovered a repressed memory of the little board that could. I was over the moon to discover that the place is still here. I want to thank all of you for keeping this magical, wonderful place alive. Especially Laragh- what a badass.

Here is a ridiculous video I made for a podcast thing. The first minute(ish) is just in-jokes for that podcast, but if you have 4ish minutes to burn, I think it introduces me kinda well and is (hopefully) a little funny and amusing:

Welcome Kelly B!

Thank you for the reminder that The Big Gay Sketch Show was a thing

Welcome Kelly B!

Thank you for the reminder that The Big Gay Sketch Show was a thing

I know! Sometimes I feel like BGSS, and the whole Logo network, was a fever dream XD

[Yelowne]

Hello, I'm Duda, a 24yo brazilian plant biologist, ilustrator and queer at all times. On the internet, you can find me by searching for 'yelowne' (I draw!). I found the kittenboard while looking for new W/T fanfics (I dont write but I read a lot). And what a finding! Its awesome to see all the history within the community. I'm starting my master's and the fanfics are gonna keep me alive in between all the studying.

Happy to be here! Thank you for keeping this place standing.

[Laragh]

Welcome Duda!

[Tarababy77]

...not a re-introduce, but a hey all! So glad to see the board is still here. Going to kick back this weekend and chat up on some old and new fics.

Wow, it's almost been 20 years since I first signed up. Crazy Cool! :-)
