    I used NightAir first on mangaupdates, and when I realized that novel translations were being better uploaded/updated here, I figured rather than making a new one, I'd keep it! :D

    Okay, Fluffums is basically my go-to nickname online. But one of my friends shortened it to fuf on a chat program, so I changed my nick to "fufufu" there for a while. Because, think about it:
    "fufufu: you suck
    otherguy: fufufu, no you suck"
    I could get away with saying pretty much anything with that nick and everyone would assume I was joking, and no one could argue with me without looking silly either. So my avatar is a smugface for that reason.

    This isn't a username I use often but it's my German name. I'm a quarter German and my grandfather made it quite clear that I must have a German name even though I'm mostly Russian, so I use it on occasion when I don't want to use my real name. *shrug*.

    The profile pic... I just like the art-style, and it kinda looks like me.

    My username comes from Dragon Ball Z anime. I like Android18 very much and I called myself first Android in the early 2000's. And in 2003 one of my friends started to call me Andro (short version of Android). So I use this name since than.

    My avatar comes from Fullmetal Alchemist, because Envy is my No. 1 favourite character. :)

    Thanks! And yeah it's pronounced Yohanne. I'm glad there are people who know how to pronounce it.. can't even count the amount of times people shortened it to 'Jo'

    When I used to play FPS games, I thought it’d be funny if ‘xxgenericnamexx was killed by a box’ it kinda just stuck afterwards

    I have pretty much been using the same username for years. Jynx was my sisters cat when I was a kid and Lynn is just my middle name, so I put them together and it stuck.

    My avatar at the moment is from Dia Game by Byaku Kotora, a fairly cute manga I enjoyed, but It will most likely change depending on my mood and what I'm into at the moment.

    Kururisu Nikusu is derived from Chloris Nyx, a username I'm using in other sites.

    Hokuou means Norse/Northern Europe. Tenrou literally means heaven wolf, but it actually refers to the star Sirius. I picked this just because I want to show stuff I like in a single package.
    As for avvy... Right, haven't picked one, but for the time being I'll probably go for my OC drawn by my friend. Or maybe Rizo el Erizo instead.

    I came with it on the spot since I do not want to use my name or something like that .
    Well it might be a bad or good name for some but as long as I like it then it's all good.
