I suppose I should probably put something here. Hmm…I am an avid reader and writer. I actually have several stories in various stages of completion. I won't post anything unless a good portion of it is already written. That way readers don’t have to worry about if the story will be finished. I’m not really sure what else to say? Guess I will move on to pairings and fandoms…

HP: I am a devout Harmonian (Harry/Hermione shipper). I hate most of the established ships in Harry Potter. I love the Weasleys, just not with Harry or Hermione. Not sure why. Love the books, but I am not blind to thier faults. Like the fact that Hermione, as a second year, figured out the riddle of the Chamber of Secrets, but Dumbledore did not. Something is seriously wrong there.

MSLN: Oh, there is so much to say here, but I will be brief. I ship NanoFate, though for reasons even I don’t understand, I have a soft spot for Fate/Signum. I’ve always sort of thought that if Nanoha and Fate could not be together, than Fate should be paired with Signum. I think I just really like their dynamic.

Fate is my favorite character, with Signum coming in at a close second. I just love the depth given to them as antagonists. And as much as I love Nanoha and Hayate, they don’t have as much depth as Fate and Signum (Vita got limited characterization, and Shamal and Zafira got virtually nothing), and the plot holes surrounding Nanoha and Hayate are more annoying than mysterious. Seriously, why the heck was a nine year old paraplegic orphan living by herself? And why is Nanoha’s family perfectly okay with a nine year old just leaving home to do something potentially dangerous that she did not explain?

I also really, really hate the TSAB. I hate that they put a nine year old kid on trial for doing what her mother told her to avoid further abuse. I hate that Gil Graham never had to face any consequences for what he planned to do to Hayate. I hate that nothing was ever done about Regius. I hate that Fate caught Jail Scaglietti and two of his Numbers and didn’t get even a commendation, Vita nearly died destroyed the core of the Cradle and didn’t even get a thank you, but Nanoha hit her daughter with a Starlight Breaker and was offered a promotion. I hate the TSAB. A lot.

I could go on, but I will stop there. I am sure no one really cares for my rambling anyway. Instead, I will move on to my stories. I will give the shortest explanations I can to prevent too much in the way of spoilers.

Spiral: Wolkenritter!Fate (Note: the writing style reflects Fate’s state of mind)

The Deuce: Assassin!Fate (Note: I know nothing about assassins. I make a lot of that stuff up, so anything accurate is a fluke.)

I think I need Another!Fate so that I can have a trilogy of Alternate!Fates. Though if you read my rambling on the TSAB, then you should know that I think that The Deuce is not so much an AU as an actual possibility. Well, that’s all for now. I think that I’ve written more than anyone cares to read.

MAGECRAFT AND WIZARDRY: I am not really the sort to post something unless it is finished. As I write this, I have completed part one, which is made up of 8 chapters. Ordinarily, I am very put-off by asking for assistance in writing, but I am doing so here. Please let me be clear: I do not want plot points. I have a plot. I know exactly what is going to happen and when it is going to happen. The area I am asking for opinions on is a smaller matter, and really, is for anyone reading.

The PHOTO ALBUM is a collections of snapshots(see what I did there?) of Harry’s life before the start of Magecraft and Wizardry. They are not always presented in order, so for a general timeline, please note the ages marked on each PHOTO. I basically pick them based on a whim. They do not match the chapter, there are no hidden messages. They are meant to give readers a better understanding of characterization overall, so it is kind of important to read all of them.

As for reader-participation, if there is a PHOTO you would like to see, make a request. I have written several already, but if there is a specific scene you would to see or a question you have, I will write/answer it with a PHOTO that will be dedicated to the requester. I will not write anything that contradicts a plot point, so please do not request a scene where the kids see Nanoha and Fate kissing, for example, as that contradicts a huge plot point.

Au Revoir
