Um, HEY! My name, (as far as you know) is CJ Croen 1393. I’m here to make a name for myself!
About me? Well, I have Asperger’s Syndrome. My hobbies include drawing, being on the computer, reading, brainstorming and talking to myself. I like Dinosaurs, birds and cryptozoology.
Music-wise I love Vocaloid music and Broadway Musicals, my favorites being Wicked, Avenue Q, Les Misérables, The Lion King and The Little Mermaid. My favorite singers are Lady Gaga, Gackt, Katy Perry, Rin Kagamine, Bowling For Soup, P!nk and Kristen Chenoweth. I. DESPISE. Justin Bieber.
I’m a major anime fan; My favorites are Ouran High School Host Club (my first anime!), Soul Eater, Azumanga Daioh, Baccano!, Durarara!!, Shinryaku! Ika Musume, Rozen Maiden, Monster, Trigun, Nabari No Ou, Princess Tutu, Fullmetal Alchemist (both versions, I don’t judge), Fruits Basket, Lucky Star, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Pani Poni Dash!, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu, Gravitation, Yami No Matsuei, Chobits, Kekkaishi, and DNAngel.
I have many Troper Works that are stuck in a continuous Development Hell loop:
- The Life And Times Of Johnny Sparrow: My new Magnum Opus. A semi-autobiographical story (half my life, half the life I wish I had) about the daily life of a young man with Asperger's Syndrome.
- Crushed: A shounen ai novel in which Toby Hutchinson gains a fascination with Jack Cunningham after Jack saves him from bullies. From there, things get complicated. Especially with the other colorful characters; Toby’s best friend, Maya Daniels and her boyfriend, Joseph. Then there’s Jack’s friends, the blind Student Council President, Nigel and his vice president/lover, Nora. Plot B is about their teacher, Ms. Rice and her love for Pop Star, Lady Lana. This is also my attempt at averting the tired old Rape Is Love thing in BL.
- The Cryptids: A Widget Series about moe-fied cryptids (like Bigfoot, chupacabra, etc.). Not much plot here…
- Sins Vs Virtues: Tory is an Ordinary High School Student, until he’s dragged into adventure by a group of cute girls claiming to be the Seven Heavenly Virtues; Charity, Kindness, Patience, Diligence, Temperance and Chastity. He is (reluctantly) made the leader, Humility, and they end up having to fight seven evil men who represent the Seven Deadly Sins; Pride, Greed, Envy, Wrath, Sloth, Gluttony and Lust. Things get personal, however, when the sins kidnap Kindness…
- The Raven Prince: A prince with raven wings crash lands in our world he meets Ayaka Nakajima and she, against her better judgement, takes him in. He tells her that he's a prince from another world, not that she's surprised, and that he was being pursued by the Gull who works for an evil, Split Personality -sporting Witch with vulture wings, who is the leader of "The Nightbirds". An Affectionate Parody of Magical Girlfriend series only it's a Magical Boyfriend series.
- Alister In Wonderland: A spin on the classic story of Alice in Wonderland. Alister Lewis is a relatively normal boy looking for some excitement in his life. He gets it when he follows a small boy with rabbit ears into a forest. He emerges in "Wonderland" and is quite disturbed to see that not only is he in a very, very weird place, but he's surrounded by attractive young men who all want a piece of him. Boys Love Genre and Steam Punk.
- DysfunctionALLEY: Created after a binge on Scandinavia and the World, Hetalia fanworks and Planetary Moe, this series takes the premise of humorous, potentially offensive satire with Moe Anthropomorphism but instead of planets or countries, this will have moe-fied mental disorders. The main players are Asperger's Syndrome, Dyslexia, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, The Attention Deficit Twins, Germophobia, Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), Depression and Self-Diagnosis (NOTE: I want to be able to post this one as a webcomic sometime soon, so I will not be calling it "unpublished" at the moment).
- My Knight In Shining Armor Wears A Skirt: Yuri Genre. Shannon Fields is quite confused when she finds herself falling for another girl named Tabitha Jacobson after she saves her from being injured. More details to come...
- Monsters Of Magi Hill: In the distant future, many people have gained an intelligent bond with strange animals that grant them supernatural powers and an elite group of kids are given the task of harnessing these skills to fight evil. These are the adventures of Nathan "Nate" Thomas, Mina Talon, Alexander "'Xander" Mensin, Bradley "Brad" Darvis, Sara Hart and Prince Denshirou as they set out do do just that with their own monsters.
I also have several unpublished Fan Fic ideas:
- The Rin and Len Plushie Show!: A webvideo series starring plushies of Rin and Len Kagamine. A fun little webcast in which the twins answer fanmail, introduce various segments, interview guest stars, etc. Segments include:
- Fanmail: The most hated segment on the show. Where Rin and Len answer fanmail.
- How Will Len Die This Time?: (Ep. 2 onward) A game in which Rin shows the viewers a song that Len shows up in and asks the viewers to figure out how he dies.
- Meiko's Vital Information for your Everyday Life: (Ep. 3 onward) Stole...er, inspired by All That, Meiko gives the viewers advice that will be valuable to them in every mundane situation!
- Kaito's Pick-Up Lines: (TBA) Kaito tries to use pick-up lines on Meiko. Hilarity Ensues.
- Miku's Guide to Stardom: (TBA) Miku gives the viewers tips on how to be famous. If only she'd remember that the viewers aren't robots.
- Luka's "What the Heck, Fandom!?": (TBA) Luka shows us what the Vocaloid fandom is like. She's not pleased with what she sees.
- Prank Calling Shizuo: (Ep. 3 onward) The twins prank call Shizuo Heiwajima.
- Guest Stars: The twins (and by "the twins" we mean Rin) interview guest stars who are either other Vocaloids or anime characters.
A Spin-Off (and by "spin off" I mean "cheap imitation made out of spite") called The Neru and Haku Figurine Show! that depends on whether or not I'll be able to get a Neru and Haku figurine might also be made.
NOTE: I already have some episodes filmed but I don't currently have them edited or uploaded. Regardless, since I plan to upload them, I will not be calling them "Unpublished" just yet.
- Fierce Battles And Fantastic Adventures: A My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic fanfic. The Corruption that took over Princess Luna, Invidia, returns and gathers the other villains of the show, Discord, Trixie, The Diamond Dogs, Gilda, and Prince Blueblood to attack the Mane Six and take over Equestria. Can the Elements of Harmony save the day before it's too late?

- Darkness Over Ikebukuro: A Durarara!! Fanfic, title pending. Mikado has turned The Dollars into a ruthless dictatorship and now rules Ikebukuro with an iron fist and a glass mind. It is now up to the resistance force to rise against him and defeat him before Ikebukuro faces destruction. Dark Fic.
- Pairings: Shizuo/Vorona, Shinra/Celty, hinted Izaya/Namie, Mairu/Aoba/Kururi, Kasuka/Ruri and Masaomi/Mikado/Anri.

- The Depths Of The City: My attempt at a good version of For Your Eyes Only and a Durarara!! fanfic. Obviously AU and hints of Dark Fic. There are people known as "Demi-Humans" who have traits similar to animals. These people are fully human despite these traits, but unfortunately they are viewed as inferior to humans and usually used as hired help. These are the stories of several of such people and how they overcome discrimination:
- Mikado Ryugamine, a dog-boy, is a middle school graduate who has found work in Ikebukuro thanks to his best friend Masaomi Kida. He ends up working for Shizuo Heiwajima, his boss Tom and his girlfriend Vorona, who all treat him fairly.
- Anri Sonohara, a cat-girl who "works" as a live-in maid for Shinra Kishitani and his wife Celty. However, they are Demi-Human activists of a sort and tend to do all the work themselves, leaving poor Anri feeling like The Load.
- Masaomi Kida, a parakeet-boy who works for Izaya Orihara. While he's cheery and perky, and loves flying more than anything, people don't know that Izaya does not treat him fairly at all, abusing him emotionally and physically, tying his wings down to render him flightless as punishment for staying out passed curfew and being generally cruel to him. Masaomi wants to leave this...and then he meets Izaya's beautiful girlfriend, Saki Mikajima...
- Walker Yumasaki, a raccoon-boy who works as a live-in butler for the rich Karisawa family and falls in love with the heiress to the family, Erika.
- Aoba Kuronuma, a fox-boy who lives in the orihara household and doesn't really work, but acts as a "playmate" for Izaya's younger sisters, Mairu and Kururi.
- Mika Harima, a cat-girl who works as a live-in maid for the wealthy Yagiri family. She falls head-over-heels for Seiji, much to the dismay of his disapproving older sister.
- Pairings: Mikado/Anri, Masaomi/Saki, Walker/Erika, Mairu/Aoba/Kururi, Shinra/Celty, Shizuo/Vorona, Izaya/Saki, Seiji/Mika, onesided Namie/Seiji.
- The Headless Boy: Celty meets a boy named Drago who claims to be a dullahan...and her friend from long ago. She doesn't believe him at first but him removing his own head is a convincing argument for the "dullahan" part anyway.
- Pairings: Celty/Shinra, Shizuo/Tom, possibly others.
Tropes that apply to me:
- Adorkable: Pretty much...
- No Social Skills: Asperger's syndrome does that to you. Permanently.

I have a lot.
- Berserk Button: Justin. Freakin'. Bieber. Also, the types of people who hate things just to spite people who like them and people who say things like "This sucks and you suck for liking it, LOL!. And retarded fans. And the amount of Rape Tropes in BL (adding the sizable Double Standard; I don't think there is any Yuri story with the Rape Is Love trope in effect). Also, math. Also, getting teased. Also, censorship. Also, Eye Scream. Heck a lot of things piss me off, now that I think of it.
