Okay, so this is my response to Dakota's blog. I was tagged by Zach, and I thought this would be a fun thing to do. Dakota's blog explaining what this all is can be found here:

Alright, so let's get started!
1)What is your name (first, whole, doesn't matter)? If you're uncomfortable disclosing your name, then tell us where your username came from.
Nicholas. And since that's way too short of an answer, I'll just go ahead and include the second part.
Nolafus comes from my first book I completed. He was the main character, and therefore, my favorite character. Fairy pressured me to change to Nolafus because she thought it would be cute. I originally said no, but I eventually caved and decided to try it out. I switched back to Slayr231 once my four months was up, but I found myself missing this name. So, now it's here to stay. It's also a play on my real name, since the character Nolafus is an alien, and I didn't want aliens having human names, so I just altered some and called it good. It's really quite obvious.

2)How did you find the Pokecommunity, and why did you join?
I found this place by searching, "Pokemon forum" on google and clicking the first result. No one around me was really that into pokemon, and couldn't carry the type of conversation I wanted, so I was forced to look around. I originally joined to impress people with my impressive knowledge of all things pokemon, but I quickly learned that I wasn't as smart as I thought I was about these things.
I joined over the summer, and once school started, I left. It wasn't until one boring summer day the following year that I remembered this site and decided to check it out. I lurked for a while, and decided to post my fic in FF&W. It wasn't getting the attention I wanted, so I started reviewing other stories, and the rest is history.
3)What is your current stance on Pokemon, the franchise? Are you still in love with it, or is it something that you consider part of your childhood?
My interest in pokemon has definitely fallen. I'll still play the games, and I still know my way around the competitive battling scene, but I'm no longer actively keeping up with it. Other games, like League of Legends, has piqued my interest nowadays, but I can still name just about every single pokemon if you show me a picture. Go ahead, try me. My friend decided to test me and I got every single one, haha.
4)If you could meet one person from PC in real life, who would that be? Name others if you want, but who is the main person?
Definitely Morkula. Don't worry about the red name, he's really nice! We've been chatting just about every day for about ten months, and he's a really awesome guy. Plus he has two theme parks, a zoo, the beach, and an aquarium near him, so I'm going over there if we do meet. All I have over here is one of the world's largest laser tag arenas. Still fun, but I often find myself near the bottom of the scoreboard.
5)Tell us a little bit about yourself. Not too much, but enough to let us know you a little more. Afterall, that's the point of this!
My bio on my profile covers a lot, but I guess one thing I haven't talked about much yet is my interests beyond pokemon and writing. I'm a huge fan of the old TV shows, Battlebots and Robot Wars, as well as Robogames and similar competitions. I think it would be awesome to build a crazy machine of death and throw it into a pit with another machine of death. What's not to love?
I also play the french horn. Despite me not being in college, I'm still allowed to join the local community college's community band, so I'm still actively keeping up with music. In high school, I played the trumpet for jazz band, french horn for wind ensemble, and mellophone for marching and pep band. Don't even get me started on marching band, because there's no way you'll keep me quiet once I get going, haha.
6)And lastly, which two people are you going to tag?
Hmm... I'm going to tag Incinermyn, and Fairy!
