About me: Twenty-something American (gender: female, species: human, class: rogue, alignment: chaotic good), recently repatriated from Britlandia, which is why my spelling is so dodgy. Putative necromancer--I hear (well, read) the words of the dead, and then write papers about them. Also known as being a postgrad student. Fanfiction is one of my favourite drugs. Longtime lurker in HP fandom, recently got hardcore turned onto Labyrinth and all things David Bowie (hnerhner 'turned on'). I like whiskey, secondhand bookshops, podcasts, weird vintage clothing, and the theatre. I am a self-proclaimed expert in telling which things are and are not bagels, and would probably sell my soul for an eclair (that's with pastry cream, mind--none of this sacreligious whipped cream nonsense). Also, I'm secretly engaged to Florence Welch (and by secretly I mean she doesn't know about it. It's fine, it's not weird or creepy, it's normal and good).

Also, my chosen career requires an excellent command of Latin, so if you want to use Latin in your fic (I'm looking at you, HP fandom), feel free to send me a PM and I'll look it over for you!

UPDATE: tumblr is now apparently a thing I do! come and hmu @ .

KEY TO TRIGGER WARNINGS The following is a legend of possible trigger warnings and potentially upsetting themes. Many of the things listed below are not in my fics and will not be in my fics--I've attempted to make a list of everything triggering that I could conceivably see myself writing about. If you want a TW for something not on the list, please let me know. If you're concerned about being triggered, I recommend looking through the list below and taking note of possible triggers and their codes--the codes will not change. I don't recommend looking up triggers for each chapter for fun, because it could contain spoilers.
