Ack, I hast been tagged! XD

Rules: Post the explanation of where your username(s) came from. Then tag TEN users whose explanations you'd like to hear. If you are tagged, then post the explanation to your page.

Right.
Ah, well, the explanation behind my username is nothing overly spectacular, really. You see, at the time that I started this journal, I was heavily into a forum-based Harry Potter RP.
My first, and generally main character that I played was named Nikolai Tichtchenko. And, for some reason, for every set of characters I create, one seems to become a bit of an alter ego. First it was Tris (A&D), then Luckis/Zero (GS1), Raven (GS2), and finally Niko... the bisexual little gothic Russian boy-slut that he was at times. (He cheated on Draco by seducing his closeted-best friend, Trevor...) I seriously love that kid. X3

He was so much fun to play... as a member of the Slytherin house, and a last minute transfer student from Durmstrang, (his father's 'undercover' muggle job that he was assigned by the Russian Ministry [of Magic] wound up getting him onto the bad side of the Mob, so they had to leave Moscow for London), he only spoke rather broken english, so I had to learn to type with an accent, as well as learn some random words in Russian. It was awesome.

So, back to how it became my username. I think it was before I started commonly using DarkEmpr3ss, and I was tired of using Trisdanna (which has yet another story behind it) for everything... so I randomly picked Nikolai, which had also been a nickname I had acquired from someone I went to cadets with. But 'Nikolai' was actually taken, so I ended up having to add the last intial of the aforementioned character.
And there it be.

And... just because I feel like it, here's a picture of my Niko. ^^ It's an old oekaki I did back in 2004, but I still like it.



(I don't think I'm going to tag anyone... but if anyone feels like it, then by all means, tag yourself for me. XP)
