Hey guys, what's up?

Just to let you know: I'm not dead yet. I'm taking a lot of class hours so I'm not getting as much time as I want to write. Fret not, however, as I still plan to update my stories, but it might take a while. Just be patient and you'll get more chapters in the future. Now that the fall semester is winding down, I'll have a bit of free time, followed by a week or two where I'm going to have to sequester myself in my room for finals, then a month's worth of no classes. I'll be making a comeback before the next semester starts, so don't worry. I've got several stories that are rolling out and I'm going to make a massive posting as soon as I get them all finished. Again, just give me your patience and I'll reward you with a slew of new stories. That's all for now, guys, so if you need me, send me a message or e-mail me at fan_fic_guru@. You can also find me on DeviantArt (as SilverDragos) but keep in mind that my artistic skills fall flat (a problem that I'm working on), and on Gaia as La_Volpe_Cenere.

LA LUNE DU SANG

SIDE NOTE: Those of you who don't like OCs won't like my stories much, as I am a HUGE fan of OCs. Expect to see a lot of them and if you don't like, don't read, 'tis that simple.

IN-PROGRESS PROJECTS/UPCOMING STORIES

Just so you guys know what I'm working on, these are the fanfic files on my flash drive:

Avatar: The Last Airbender, Big Windup!, Black Butler, Bleach, Bully, Code Geass, Code Lyoko, Dragon Age: Origins (and Awakening, too), Fallout 3, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, Gargoyles, Gauntlet: Dark Legacy, Kiba (the anime, not the character(s), Kingdom Hearts, Mirror's Edge, Naruto, Pokemon, Soul Eater, Teen Titans, Total Drama Island, Warhammer 40,000 Dawn of War: Soulstorm, Wolf's Rain, X-Men Evolution

And now, a "by folder" update:

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Still working on my biggest project to date, a fanfic that has one chapter for every episode of the show plus a few extra thrown in for OC backstory purposes. This fic "stars" all the characters from the show plus Xifeng, a girl from the Fire Nation who is a member of a special race of people born solely to be the Avatar's personal bodyguard (I'll explain this in the story), and T'an (pronounced "Tahn"), a young weapons master from the Earth Kingdom. I've thrown in a few villian OCs, but most of them aren't very important. First chapter ("The Boy in the Iceberg" & "The Avatar Returns") completed, second chapter in-progress; will be posted in mass upload.

Big Windup!: This is going to turn into a fic about my OC Kyoko Yamagawa, who plays for the Nishiura baseball team. The main focus will be on how she interacts with the boys on the team, especially since she's the only girl. There will be some romance in it, in the form of AbeXMihashi and in the fact that Kyoko falls in love with Mizutani and has feelings for Taijima, too. First and second chapters nearly complete, third chapter in-progress; will be posted in mass upload.

Black Butler: We showed this in Anime Club earlier this semester and I was instantly hooked. This fic will pretty much follow the storyline of the anime and focus on the interactions of the characters with my OC. At this point, he has no name, but he does have a "quickie" backstory. He's 15 and is the adopted older brother of Ciel. He somehow avoided being killed when the Phantomhive manor was burnt down (I'm not sure how yet). He is one of the only people Ciel confides in, and one of the only humans to know that Sebastian's really a demon. When Ciel told him of what had happened, he secretly formed a quadruple Faustian contract with the twin wolf demons Freki and Geri, and the twin raven demons Huginn and Muninn. That's all I'll say about him for now, read the fic for more info. First chapter almost in-progress; planned to be posted in mass upload.

Bleach: Let me start by saying that I have SOOOO many OCs for Bleach...And yes, I'm a nerd. Now that that's out of the way, let me tell you what's on the plate. Firstly, I will post a story that inserts my main OCs, Hojo Nakama (New Captain of Squad 5) and Uchiki Shizuka (3rd seat of Squad 2), and maybe a few more OCs, into random sporadic events that were cannon to the manga/anime (I say "manga/anime" because of things like the "New Captain Arc" and the "Zanpakto Unknown Tales Arc"). Also, I may post a series of one-shots (or stories that are just a few chapters long) featuring my other OCs in a limited context. In addition, I'm also working on developing an "alternate reality" story that has most of the current members of the Court Guard Squads promoted to the Zero Squad and replaced with OCs. We'll see how that turns out. Hojo/Uchiki stories in-progress; planned to be posted in mass upload. One-shots in the planning stage; post date unknown. "Alternate Reality" in the planning stage; post date unknown.

Bully: This fic will star my OC, Zak Meirson, who is a 15 year old new student to Bullworth. Admittedly bisexual, he has a hard time fitting into any of the niches of the Bullworth student body. Meets Trent soon after he arrives and the two become fast friends, even to the point of rooming together. They start to foster a relationship that goes smoothly until Kirby gets in the way. The focus is on the love triangle between Zak, Trent, and Kirby as well as how Zak interacts with the cliques from Bullworth and with main characters Jimmy and Petey. Spoiler alert: Gary will return in this fic (mwahahaha). First chapter nearly finished; will be posted in mass upload.

Code Geass: I've made an OC for Code Geass, but since I haven't seen the show in a while, this will require some research to complete. Now nameless, she is a Black Knight and friend to Lelouch. When fighting as a Black Knight, she pilots a mech known as the Morgan le Fay that has shapeshifting abilities. Again, I'm not sure how long this will take, as I will need to watch the show again before I can continue with it. First chapter in progress; post date unknown.

Code Lyoko: Probably going to be a short fic that focuses on a new member to the Lyoko team. Her name is Miranda "Mira" Vosper and she takes the form of a shapechanging druid-like character when in Lyoko. Back in the real world, she is a love interest for Odd and she enjoys helping him make fun of Sissy. This story will probably start while the kids are fighting X.A.N.A. (after Aelita has been brought out of Lyoko) and continue on for a little while, probably until William is taken over. It will then timeskip to after X.A.N.A. has been defeated and the kids are leading normal lives. X.A.N.A. is going to return and the team will have to delve into Lyoko once again to figure out how he came back and how to beat him again. May or may not be broken into two fanfics. This project has been put on the backburner, due to the fact that they stopped broadcasting the show in North America (or at least I couldn't find it anywhere). I'll be researching this one, as well. First chapter in-progress; post date unknown.

Dragon Age: Origins (and Awakening): This will be similar to my Fallout 3 fanfiction in that it will feature several of my in-game characters. There will be two separate fanfictions for sure, one that has stars my Human Noble, who falls for Alister, during her adventures and another that stars my Human Magi, who falls for Morrigan, during his adventures. These two almost always took separate paths during their playthroughs (except the Tower of Magi, where they both helped the mages), so the stories will be somewhat different. In addition, the Human Noble's story will extend into Awakening, while the Human Magi's story will extend into the Witch Hunt DLC. Stories in the planning stage, post dates unknown.

Fallout 3: The only thing I have to say about this is that I will be updating the current story "A boy, his boy, and his dog." Over the summer, my computer got a nasty virus that used up all the hard drive space so that I couldn't install anything to take it out. I had to have the hard drive wiped and re-set up, and I have yet to put Fallout 3 back onto the CPU. As soon as I do, I'll be making sure that I've got the location and character names right and do some rough review of the geography of the Capital Wasteland. Next chapter in-progress; will be posted in mass upload or sooner.

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood: This fic will follow the path of the 2009 Brotherhood anime/manga with my OC inserted into it. Her name is Lt. Colonel Lucia Shrike and she is known as the Tarot Alchemist. She was developed as a response to an idea I had that Truth might take something that is an "abstract concept" rather than a physical attribute. Her backstory: she was a happy, young alchemist living in Armestris. She fell in love with a man and they were happy together until he was killed by a runaway car. She tried to resurrect him using Human Transmutation and had !*^!#^*#&$*^!%%#$ taken as a result (sorry, I'm not going to be that specific ^_^). She joined the military and is a Lt. Colonel under Mustang's command when the story starts. She's called "The Tarot Alchemist" due to the fact that she uses alchemy through the deck of tarot cards she uses. At the end of each chapter, I'll put in a summary of the cards she used and a brief explanation of their effects. First chapter in-progress; will be posted in mass update.

Gargoyles: For this, I've created a small clan of Gargoyles that live in NYC and take a more...hands on approach to dealing with the Quarrymen. As with Goliath's clan, they will all be named after places or things in NYC. Due to their violent approach to dealing with the Quarrymen, they come into conflict with Goliath and his clan. This fic is still in the planning stage, so it may take a while to be put down on paper, so to speak. First chapter in the planning stages; post date unknown.

Gauntlet: Dark Legacy: After going back and playing this game again, I've decided that it would be fun to write a fic detailing the eight heroes' struggle against Skorne and his forces. All the characters have been given names and distinct personalities so their character dynamics should be pretty good. I haven't got around to writing this yet, but when I do, I'll be doing extensive research to make sure that I get things right. First chapter in the planning stage; planned to be posted in the mass update.

Ghost in the Shell SAC: I've made a Section 9 OC named Atsuko Kawaguchi. She's not as...risque (?) as the Major, but she does know how to use her sexual attraction to do her job. I'm still coming up with a backstory for her and fine-tuning her personality. This story's still early-on in the planning stage, so we'll see how fast things move. I can say that the fic will roughly follow the show (both 1st and 2nd gigs) with extra situations thrown in for fun. Story still in planning stage; post date unknown.

Kiba: Found this anime randomly and fell in love with it. My OC for this, Myka, is actually Keith's older sister (only 'cause he's my favorite character), but she doesn't know it in the beginning. She's got an interesting backstory, so I'll keep it secret, for now. I will say that she was raised by Master Zico and eventually became his personal bodyguard. She commands four spirits based off the attributes of strength/attack, defense, speed, and magic. Her character design was based off of a less risque version of Tia Hallibel from Bleach. She has a special ability that I won't reveal, but it does come at a price. I'm considering adding an unknown seventh key spirit (may or may not end up in Myka's hands) to the show, but we'll see about that. Will somewhat follow the anime, but will deviate to allow character interaction between Myka and Keith. First and second chapters in-progress; will be posted in mass update.

Kingdom Hearts: I will continue my fic about my cosplay group's Organization XIII children. As we are constantly changing things and cosplaying new things, this fic will stay open-ended to accommodate that. Also, there will be a fic about Dragos struggling with trying to protect Neon and Raina and fighting the darkness inside him. I may also write a few one-shots about the characters already in the KH universe, but that is VERY tentative. Next chapter in children's fic in-progress; will be posted in mass update. Dragos-centirc fic in the planning stages; post date unknown.

Mirror's Edge: "Cracks on the Mirror's Edge" isn't dead, but because of the computer problems I explained above, I have to reinstall the game onto my computer so I can make sure I get as close to cannon as possible. Spoilers: possible FoxXFaith...Fox will be present when Merc gets killed...Oust isn't going to survive the entire story, but Aphonia will...Fox thinks Jackknife is a jackass. Next two chapters in progress; will be posted in mass update.

Naruto: Another thing that I've made a ton of OCs for. My main one is Nya Ookamiru, who is a member of a race of demi-humans from a different continent. She, in particular, is a wolf. She comes to train in Konoha after a very, very sad backstory. She and Kiba eventually fall in love. This will be a series of fics detailing her relationship with Kiba as well as her participation in events of the anime/manga. This has been on the backburner for a while, and I don't know when it's going to get down on paper. Time will tell. First fic in-progress; post date unknown. Other fics in the planning stage; post dates unknown.

Pokemon: My OC for Pokemon, Vera Araceli, has one of the most fucked-up backstories out of all of my OCs. I won't reveal it yet, but it traumatized her for life. She's from Lavaridge Town in Hoenn where she got her first Pokemon, a Charmander, when it fell on her while she was relaxing in the hot springs one day. She's an avid martial artist and now spars periodically with her partner Lucario (I promise I didn't rip this off from Maylene, it just happens they do the same thing). Vera has Lucario use his moves on her during their sparring in order to keep her on her toes. First chapter complete, second chapter in-progress; will be posted in mass update.

Soul Eater: I've made a few OCs for this. I'm not going to explain backstories here, but I will introduce them. First is Ember, a one-star meister, and her weapon, Cepheus. His character design was inspired from Zangetsu from Bleach and he takes the form of a grieve edge (essentially bladed shoes; they were a custom weapon class in Soul Calibur III). Next is Kenji, another one-star meister, and his weapon partner, Shizuka. She takes the form of a four-plate piece of armor on his back that can extend (to a limited extent) over his body and produce thorn-like projections that can impale his enemies. Finally, there's Toshiro, a three-star meister, and his weapons, Freki and Geri. They were part of a wild clan of half-wolves that Toshiro met one day. He managed to befriend them and eventually tamed them. Geri (pronounced like "Gary" at all times, by the way) is male and he takes the form of a small shield that can extend to about man-size and block many attacks. Freki is female and takes the form of a short, spear-like weapon called "the fang" that can extend and contract to attack foes. I'll reveal Soul Resonances later. This was originally meant to be a collaboration with my friend (who would introduce OCs of her own), but she has been and will be very busy, so it might fall through. If that's the case, I'll continue on without her characters and just deal with mine. First chapter in-progress, planned to be posted in the mass update.

Teen Titans: I've got two fics out for this right now, and I'm not sure if either of them will continue. I've been removed from the show for quite a while and I don't think I'll be going back anytime soon. These stories have been on the backburner almost since they were written. I'll try to keep them up and updated, but I'm focusing on other things right now. Don't count them out just yet; I may come back to them. Again, time will tell. Both stories in-progress; post date unknown.

Total Drama Island: I've got two ideas in mind for this, both being extra seasons of the show within the show. The first would just be a few returning campers and a few OCs that fill stereotypes that weren't already filled in the show. The second is a male-only season with a few OCs that might be followed by a similar female-only season. As with Teen Titans, these stories have been packed away for a while, and may or may not come to fruition. Both stories in the planning stages; post date unknown.

Warhammer 40,000 Dawn of War: Soulstorm: This will be an overview of the struggle for the Kaurava system from the viewpoints of the faction leaders and a few miscellaneous OCs that are members of a few of the factions. Protagonists will probably be: Tau, Sisters of Battle, Imperial Guardsmen, Space Marines, and Eldar. Antagonists will probably be: Dark Eldar, Forces of Chaos, Necrons, and the always-troublesome Orks (WAAAAAAARGH!). Possible inter-racial romance between a Tau soldier and a female Guardsmen or Marine. Story in the planning stages; post date unknown (although I'll try to have it finished by the mass update).

Wolf's Rain: I've come up with a mate for Toboe since I've begun rewatching the show. She doesn't have a name yet, but I can say that she is a timber wolf in her wolf form. Her character design is still being developed, but I do know that she clashes with both Kiba and Hige and would have left them behind if not for Toboe. The story will follow the path of the anime and she will end up dead in the end, just like every other character. This story's still way in the planning stage, so I'm not sure when I'll start it. Please bear with me. Story still in the planning stages; post date unknown.

X-Men Evolution: I've made a few Marvel OCs that fit in perfectly with this show. Two are teachers and two are students. The main focus will be around Foxe Coleridge (aka Umbra), a new student to the academy. He's still very young, so he gets along very well with Jamie. I've put Jamie at thirteen or fourteen, while the other students are pushing seventeen. Foxe and Jamie begin to develop feelings for each other and have to try to overcome the struggles of realizing/accepting bisexuality and coming out of the closet. Other OCs and Foxe's powers to be kept secret until the fic goes up. First chapter in-progress; planned to be posted in mass update.

Phew...that's finally done. I'll try to keep this section updated to the best of my abilities so you know what's going on with my stories. Other things I may begin to develop fanfictions for are: Digimon, Zoids, Warehouse 13, Burn Notice, Harry Potter, the Mechwarrior series, Black Cat, Law & Order: SVU, Psych, Kekkaishi, and Cowboy Bebop.

As I said above, it may take a while for these to come out of the works. Once I get a good idea, I have to write it down or risk losing it, and I hate it when I lose a good story idea. College also keeps my hands tied for much of the days; please just bear with me. Also, I'd like to humbly beg you not to flood my inbox with e-mails asking about when I'm going to update. I promise I'll get it done when I have time.

Some of my favorite things:

Movies: Eragon, The Dark Knight, Lord of the Rings, Wanted, Star Wars, Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo, Pirates of the Carribean, Cloverfield, X-men, and too many more to list.

Books (or technically authors): Tolkien, J. K. Rowling, Ben M. Baglio, Jean Craighead George

T.V. Shows: CSI (all three of them), Teen Titans, Code Lyoko, iCarly, The Mole, The Amazing Race, Avatar: The last Airbender, Survivor, Bones, Numbers, NCIS, George Lopez, Home Improvement, Cold Case, and sooo many more that I would need the scroll bar on the side of the screen to be super small to give the complete list

Video Games: Mirror's Edge (STILL waiting for the announcement of a sequel), Sid Meyer's Civilizations, the Sly Cooper series, WWE Smackdown! vs RAW, Shadow of the Colossus, Gauntlet series, Prince of Persia series, Mechwarrior, Assassin's Creed (again STILL waiting on the sequel), Gladius, Dawn of War

Music: mostly rock, a little bit of metal, and some pop. I like most of the popular bands today and also Celtic Woman and Stone Sour.

Pairings

Mirror's Edge

FaithxJacknife- well...this was kind of ruined...but I liked their scenes together...you know, before she kicked him out of the helicopter

FaithxFox- not official since it has one of my own characters in it. Expect to see this in my stories...

Teen Titans

RobxStar- very cliche, but it was coming like a runaway frieght train

Naruto

KibaxHinata- Personally, I think Naruto can go throw himself off the nearest cliff when it comes to Hinata's affections. Everyone knows he likes Sauske anyway, and Kiba deserves her a lot more...unless I throw my own female character into the mix (mwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...)

AsumaxKurenai- simply: they belong together

ShikamaruxTemari- they already love each other...ever since he beat her in the Chunin Exams.

Code Lyoko

I support the two most obvious pairings in the series. If you've seen it, then you know who they are. If not, you probably have to watch about three or four episodes to figure it out.

EXPECT THESE PAIRINGS AND ONES INVOLVING MY OWN CHARACTERS TO APPEAR IN MY STORIES!!
