A good traveller has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving - Lao Tzu

Hi there! You can call me Pecan. I have a weird obsession with nuts. It's nice to meet ya! :D

In all seriousness, I find it rather strange when authors spew random facts about them in the profile page, since they don't seem all that relevant. The only information you need to know is that I'm always happy to receive critique, and in depth reviews make me positively giddy *hint hint*

I plan to review all the fics I favorite, but I often forget. I reply to all reviews left in my active or finished stories, so if you left a comment and I didn't reply, I probably saw it, decided to reply later, but forgot. Don't be afraid to PM if that's the case, or for any other reason, really. I like to see myself as friendly!

All pictures and all stories in this account are belong to me.

MULTI-CHAPTER STORIES

1. Apples - Finished

3. Blossom and Smoke - Discontinued until further notice
4. The Howling Mountain Pass - I'll rewrite it (Ooooooooh whaaaaaa~)
5. Legends of Konoha - Discontinued until further notice

PLOT BUNNIES

Stories I want to read, in order of which ones I'm most likely to try my hand at. Anyone can take them as inspiration to write their own stuff. Just message me cause I wanna reaaaaad iiiiiiit! (Unless it's a bashing fic or a crossover. I don't care for those.)

NARUTO

1. Sasuke wins in his fight against Naruto in the Valley of the End. There are a few stories like that around, but none are quite what I'm looking for. It would focus on Sasuke's new powers after he extracts the bijuu chakra from Naruto, and how they're a double edged sword (specifically, how he has trouble controlling them and how having so much power takes its tool on his already fragile psyche), and him trying to cope with everything for the sake of his revolution. I want him to try his hand at the "Creation of All Things" technique with ultimately horrifying results. The writing would focus on describing places and actions, as opposed to the characters' thoughts. It would have some SasuSaku, but not fluffy and no HEA. Character death is mandatory. On the longer side. Horror-fic is best-fic. Tragedy. I wanted to name it "Destruction of All Things" cause I'm silly. Possibly a job for a way better writer than myself (although I've been working on a story-line).
2. Kakashi, Gai, and Mirai's trip to the Land of Hot Water. A one-shot or short multi-chapter fic. Just do it.
3. Modern (or would it be contemporary?) AU that actually looks like it could be set in Japan. Many of the modern day AUs are set in a Japan that looks very different from actual modern day Japan. Like, whenever I read about Sakura freaking out over student loans or everyone knows how to drive and taking the public transport is seen as a disaster I just think"So the autor is from the States, then." I don't care much about the main characters, so long as the plot/character interactions are interesting AND attention to the culture the story is inserted into is paid. Any lenght is welcome.
4. Kizashi tells Sarada (his own version) of events that her parents went through. A one-shot or short multi-chapter fic. Cute, fluffy, and with lots of interruptions from a doubting little Sarada. Pun festival.
5. Vampire the Masquerade AU. That would be lovely. I think Shikamaru as the main character would work well, but the main thing is that both universes are mixed well. Lenght is no object, but it would probably work best as a multi-chapter fic.
6. Narutoverse AU in which the ninja villages were never built. It would feature the same characters from the original series/Shippuden, but there would be no villages and the clan system would still be in place. Preferably from Naruto's perspective, but with a lot of appearences from various characters. On the longer side.
7. Obito and Madara never met and instead, years later, Sakura finds Madara's cave. I love me some MadaSaku, but I'm happy if their relationship is entirely platonic (I am also happy with some geriatric Madara action - don't kinkshame me). Madara would attempt to use Sakura to further his plan, and he can see the error of his ways eventually - or remain an unrepetent asshole. If Sakura happens upon Madara when she's younger, it could be like one of those fics where Sakura develops differently than in canon. There should be an exploration of how this AU differs from the canon-verse. I'm also not picky about when exactly the universes began differing - maybe team Minato never went on the mission, maybe Rin was never captured, maybe the boulder never fell on Obito, maybe he just died as we originally thought he had. On the longer side.

LOTR/Silmarillion/etc.

1. The Dagor Dagorath in the Middle Earth version of present day. Mad amounts of OCs. The longer and more elaborate the better.
