*'''Side Note''': She's ashamed to admit she is responsible for the majority of Falkner 'ships on the 'Shipper's List, but also admits it's addictive and fun, and impossible for her to stop.

Luna's been involved with Pokémon since Pokémon Blue reached her younger brother's possession in 1998. With Blue and Red somehow gotten between them, and Yellow too, with only a single GameBoy Color between them until sometime after Gold and Silver were released, there was much anarchy. Memories of this are hazy, but yes, it was bad.
Since then, Luna and her brother Jargo (who never related to the Pokémon fandom) have kept up a coincidental theme of game ownership: Luna would always have the 'Hero' games (Red, Gold, Ruby, and Diamond) and Jargo would always own the 'Rival' games (Blue, Silver, Sapphire, and Pearl). In fact, one of Luna's reasons for buying Diamond was to finally get away from the 'warm-color' games (another reason was that Diamond got the better deal on Pokémon; [[Dialga]]] rules, [[Palkia]] drools); it's just a neat coincidence that tradition still holds firm.
The only game they've never owned between them was Pokémon Crystal. Jargo's lost Silver and Sapphire (which Luna personally bought him; rawr dammit!), and Luna's lost Emerald, much to her grief and grievance.
Luna's ultimate discovery of [[shipping]] happened once she discovered "yaoi" in 1999/2000, and began with ShiShi, or Palletshipping, on Ruaki's (now defunct) website DigiPark. This lead to her finding the [http://www.geocities.com/anyshippers/ Anyshippers] website, and realizing this...was going to be fun.
It went all downhill from there. To finding various groups of 'ship names splashed everywhere (the at-the-time most current was on the Anyshippers Yahoo! Group, to her knowledge) to making her first actual submission to the older-and-gone BMGf 'Shipper List thread (BTW, that was Honorshipping), she was and ''is'' (for a lack of a better way to say it) latched onto the damn thing at the hip. She even met Blackjack Gabianni through the Anyshippers Group.
Having joined since mid-2003, making many a submission since (including [[Originshipping]] and Mossshipping), it came to a point where...she got really adamant (read: annoying) with pointing out the List errors and was promoted to Modship to take over the List-keeping. ...Then MondoTR vanished, leaving the poor girl to mod alone, without really knowing what to do with her shiny new powers. Drama Attack, go!
And as many a victim can attune to, she's a tempermental mod. Never did know how to play nice. Oops?
