Firefly Child

How to explain this? Okay, so take all your character journals and list 'em. Then explain why you picked that LJ name for them/story behind the LJ name/etc. etc.

Toph seestheearth: I created this LJ for Toph initially for Avoria, and I didn't want to use the LJ I had for her in Apharsites/Eden (which was tophblindbandit). Initially I had been going for something along the lines of "seeswithherfeet", but variations on that had already been taken. Plus, seestheearth just sounded cooler.

Shuichon lixiaochun: Barest of bare bones, it's just a spelling variation on Shuichon's name.

Hotaru fireflychyld: Hotaru's name translates to "firefly", and I wanted to use that in her LJ name rather than any connotations of Sailor Saturn, especially since in Apharsites she wasn't going to be able to transform. I reallyreally wanted "fireflychild" but someone had already taken it. So I just swapped out that last i for a y, and there you have it.

Milly kadiccameragirl: Technically it's a bit misleading since Tamiya was always the one carrying the camera, not Milly. But it just clicked (no pun intended).

Chihiro sendragongirl: Originally I had created a different journal for Chihiro to use in the Nexus; unfortunately when I decided to app her to Digital Dive I couldn't for the life of me remember what it was. I have no idea how many times I went through the archives in Sages and D_M trying to find it. Finally I just gave up and created this journal. "Sen" is from the name Yubaba gave Chihiro in the spirit world after she took her real name, and "Dragon girl" is from, well, she's Haku's girl and he's a dragon.

Kole crystalspinner: When I first created Kole's LJ, her username was "_crystalline_", underscores added because someone was already using the name w/out underscores. I changed it to crystalspinner after LJ gave out those free rename tokens, because I thought it sounded cooler and it was more descriptive of her powers as they evolved.

Chiaki chiakiinwater: Chiaki and her friends Teppei, Katsuharu and Teruo were originally believed by the fandom to have been the holders of the remaining Spirits. As the only girl of that group, Chiaki would have wound up with the Spirits of Water.
