STAY SAFE GUYS!!!! If I can remind at least one person to take better care of themselves in this hell we're in, my hypochondriac self will feel validated. For the love of every deity I can think of, please exercise some caution around people. And wash your bloody hands, how hard is that?

Hey guys!

My AO3 account is under the same name in case anyone is wondering. Because of restrictions on FFN, all explicit M-rated stuff will be on AO3. Sorry, but I really don't want to get in trouble with the site.

I also have a deviantart account; my username is anime-otaku20, and that's where I'll be posting things like drawings I do and family trees for my fics.

Name: animeotaku20 (not going to put up my real name - sorry)

Age: 20s

Gender: Female

Location: England

WARNINGS

My stories will include elements of genderbending, mpreg, slash, femlash, and het. Large age gaps may happen, and if anything is mature, underage, or has triggers, I will post warnings at the beginning of each chapter, so please read them before reading the story.

Current status:

I am alive. My motivation is not. To anyone reading and waiting for updates, I'm just not in a good place right now. Forcing myself to write is only going to make things worse, so I hope everyone can be patient with me at the moment.

Thank you so much to everyone reviewing! I know I've been crap at responding recently, but I promise I read everything that you leave on my fics. You guys are awesome.

Conclusion: 2020 can go fuck itself.

Things readers need to know

-NOTHING IS ABANDONED UNLESS I SAY SO IN THE DESCRIPTION OR LIST IT AS FINISHED. PLEASE STOP ASKING ME IF MY STORIES ARE ABANDONED. THE ANSWER WILL ALWAYS BE NO UNLESS I SAY SO. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, THOSE OF YOU WHO KEEP ASKING, PLEASE STOP.

-I'M SHIT AT REPLYING TO MESSAGES AND REVIEWS. I WILL LITERALLY TAKE WEEKS, IF NOT MONTHS, TO REPLY. IT'S NOT PERSONAL, I'M JUST A DISASTER. I'm the Unholy Trinity of interacting with my fellow homo sapien - a shy, socially anxious introvert. Let me tell you, life is fun like this.

-I have no update schedule. If I come across that magical mixture of time and motivation, writing will happen. If not, I'll probably be binge-watching something on YT.

-If you tell me what I should be writing, I am liable to either ignore you, be a bitch back, or reply with every ounce of my sarcastic, passive-aggressive British self. If you would like a certain, please, do write one. I have to assume that a great many individuals are hidden literary genii give the number of scathing criticisms I've received in the past. It's such a shame that these connoisseurs prefer to spend their valuable time on pouring their very soul into derogatory comments on the internet rather than their own work. Then again, what do I know? Clearly, someone such as myself doesn't understand what it is to write anything. Such a shame, really.

-When I receive questions asking me what happens next, I genuinely chuckle to myself out loud. The audacity is almost impressive. As it is, I'm afraid that all readers must reside on the same level, and simply wait for the next installment to be released. I won't indulge these particular curiosities, unfortunately.

-Please don't leave such horrible reviews. Have you never heard of common decency and basic manners?

-I would certainly appreciate it is any readers would pay attention and read any tags/warnings on my works. It would be pointless of me to apologise for my content if it's already been labelled as such. Seriously, please read them. Why else are you on a fan fiction site if you have no intention of reading?

-Repeatedly sending me messages to ask me the same question isn't going to net you a different answer each time. I'll likely just resort to coming up with different messages to insult you in slightly different ways each time.

My current stories

(Updates for all stories will be sporadic due to me being a working adult with a full-time job. My work and health - both physical and mental - has to be a priority, so updates will more than likely have weeks or even months in between. I will hopefully rotate which fic gets an update so none fall to the wayside, however.)

Learning and Loving: Complete

Two basketball idiots in unrequited love find the courage to go for their goals off the court, and learn that perhaps 'unrequited' isn't quite the right description after all.

Romance, slash, oneshot: Kagami x Kuroko.

(This actually used to be called 'Exhausting Confession' and I wrote it several years ago. I took a look and cringed very badly at my appalling first attempt at fanfiction. I very quickly took it down but decided to update it for the hell of it. Now it actually has properly written sentences - and I still can't figure out how my grammar Nazi self allowed that travesty to be posted.)

Time Travel? Really!: Complete

Rose Potter, trouble-magnet extraordinaire, finds herself waking up in the past after an accident at work. Deciding to do what Dumbledore should have, Rose decides to fix the timeline seeing as she's stuck. Everyone had better watch out, because this Rose Potter isn't what they were expecting - at all.

Fem!Harry, slight AD/RW bashing. T for language (lots of swearing).

Humour/Drama.

Temporal Displacement and Everyday Headaches: Ongoing

SEQUEL to 'Time Travel? Really!' Just because the main problems of this time have been fixed, doesn't mean that life for Rose Potter is going to be smooth sailing. Family troubles, politics, life in general ... Rose will have to work for the things she wants, and if that means embracing her Black side, so be it.

Fem!Harry, T for language (lots of swearing), Humour/Drama.

In Another Time: Complete

During his newest adventure, Harry Potter discovers that not all of his accidents have bad consequences, and a long-held wish is finally granted.

Romance, slash, time travel, mpreg, oneshot: Orion x Harry.

In This Time, The Clock Never Stops: Complete

SEQUEL to 'In Another Time'. Harry loves his new life, especially how calm it is compared to before he time travelled. More or less. Marrying Orion Black - and gaining a whole host of bizarre family members - probably wasn't the best way to attain a life of peace, but he wouldn't give any of them up for the world. His family was everything to him.

Romance, het and slash, mpreg. Just fluff. Main pairing Orion x Harry.

A Different Kind of Magic: Ongoing

Various drabbles about different pairs from the Harry Potter universe. Will include slash, femslash and het. May include tropes such as genderbent characters and mpreg (maybe?). Requests closed for now.

Chapters will range in word count depending on my mood.

A Second Chance at Happiness? Maybe?: Complete

A stupidly curious Harry Potter accidentally ends up in the past ... right in front of Regulus Black. Deciding he might as well stop the world going to hell, a - slightly insane - Potter drags a bewildered Regulus with him. Between ending a war and accidentally saving the Blacks, the two quickly get close. Will they have a second chance at happiness? Maybe?

Romance, slash, mentions mpreg: Regulus x Harry.

With Age Comes ... Absurdity?: Ongoing

SEQUEL to 'A Second Chance at Happiness? Maybe?' Stopping a war was surprisingly easy. Falling in love and getting married was even easier. (Sort of.) Being an adult and living life should be smooth sailing ... right? Getting older totally made you wiser, meaning Harry and Regulus' lives together will of course get easier as they go along. Can they ever have a normal life, or is their version of normal just absurd?

Slash, mpreg, slice of life.

A Life of Insanity: Take Two: Ongoing

Harry always knew that life was insane, but having your own father as a soulmate and ending up in the past was so far beyond normal it wasn't fair. Can he and his - mad - other half learn to grow up together? Without destroying the world, that is.

Romance, slash, incest, mentions of mpreg: James x Harry

Rewind to Black: Ongoing

Being reborn as a daughter of the House of Black was bewildering, but realising they weren't actually evil was another problem entirely. Despite a name and gender change, Harry Potter wasn't someone who would let their family suffer for no reason. Lyra was a Black, and Blacks protect their own.

Time travel, genderbending - fem! Harry, slash and fem slash, same-sex pregnancies, family-focused.

Life: Reloading: Ongoing

After making amends in the afterlife, Dahlia Potter, Snape, and Dumbledore get kicked back to the realm of the living by Death. Only problem is, it's 1991 again. Dumbledore is now a genuinely cheerful old man who's a bit mental, Dahlia's a sneaky little shit who's obviously too cute to be any trouble, and Snape wonders what he did to deserve this.

Time travel, fem!Harry, Humour, T for language.

Alternative Arrangements: Complete

Not all relationships have fairytale endings. Some end with crazy shenanigans, wives not caring about society, and husbands questioning their life choices. Or, a story in which Harry and Ginny aren't in love with each other, but still end up on a journey of adult life, romance and children, just without the drama. And with alcohol.

Platonic and gay HPGW, some slash, T for language, alternative post-canon, humour, oneshot.

Story ideas – may write, NOT definite

[Harry Potter x Katekyo Hitman Reborn reincarnation crossover fic: In progress]

Harry Potter characters end up in the bodies of certain characters from Reborn and take over the world for themselves. Poor Reborn doesn’t understand why he isn’t the cause of chaos anymore. Vongola has no idea until it’s too late.

Not going to spoil the plot and who’s who, but the series is more of a drabble one at the moment as I can’t figure out how to otherwise order the chapters, so they’ll probably be anywhere from 500-1500 words each until I can figure out how to structure them. I won’t be posting it until I’ve revealed a couple of the reincarnations, and I want to write more chaos for Reborn lol

Inspired by ‘Snow Leopard Not Lion’ by RinRin on Archive of Our Own – go read it, it’s amazing

[Harry Potter time travel fic 1: just idea]

Harry and Luna, the platonic soulmates, end up back in the past. What else is there to do but cause havoc? And search for the elusive Crumple-Horned Snorkack, of course.

This idea came to me when I thought about how there are so many romantic soulmate stories – one of mine included – but no-one ever seems to aspire to having a platonic soulmate. I also thought about how everyone agrees that Harry and Luna’s friendship deserves to be shipped at the very least, so I decided to match them up as friends. And cause trouble, because I think Luna in general, and a Harry who’s decided not to care, could be utterly hilarious together.

Not writing it yet, but let me know what you think.

[Harry Potter and Why do I have a marriage contract?: just idea]

Harry finds out he has to marry Daphne Greengrass – problem is, he’s already in a relationship and so’s she. The solution includes multiple wives, but is anyone really happy about it?

I find the idea that Harry marries a bunch of women and suddenly becomes a sort-of Casanova-cum-sex god to be ludicrous. This is the boy who described his first kiss as ‘wet’, and tried to say that nice skin was a reason to be with someone. I love Harry, but his emotional maturity wasn’t exactly his strong point.

This story has the cliché multiple wives scenario, but it isn’t the happily ever after, even if they do end up happy – just not how they thought. Harry remains faithful to his partner, yet still fulfils the contract. He just happens to make use of his saving people thing in a slightly different way this time.

Haven’t even started it, but let me know your thoughts.

[Harry Potter time travel fic 2: In progress]

(Yes, another time travel plot idea. I read way too many of these hence I have too many ideas.) Harry wakes up in the body of someone who didn't originally exist in his world and promptly hates his new life - as a Gaunt. He lands right in the middle of a horrible moment and quickly has to save a very young Merope before escaping.

A kind of dark Harry - with some probably controversial and cynical opinions concerning his past life (canon) - ends up about a century in the past as a member of the worst family possible, before he promptly decides to take charge as per usual. Will actually be a Harry x Newt fic eventually.

I've only got a couple of chapters done but it's being written. I originally got the idea from another of my 'A Different Kind of Magic' chapters, the Harry x Arcturus one (which I may also expand on in the future.)

So many ideas, so little time to write.

--These are just ideas I've had rattling around in my head for a while. I can't guarantee that any of them will ever get done, but I guess we can all hope, can't we?
