Author has written 6 stories for Mentalist.

I first joined this site when I was probably 13 or so and wrote probably somewhere between 100-200k words of fics in a couple of fandoms for three years under different usernames and then promptly disappeared to other sites. I'm now twice that age and very amused that a fandom I discovered during quarantine has brought me back to this website!

You'll find me active on tumblr and ao3 under this same username.

For context, I live in the US and am a person of voting age, so will likely be affected by any current events. For the most part current events will not directly feature in anything I might write, but it might be relevant to note that I am personally progressive leaning and in favor of blanket human rights. It just so happens that I made this account during upheaval, which is why I make mention of this. I won't be posting anything overtly political, so don't worry!
