Hi there :) Eloquent Nocturne here, although you may have known me before as Grasping Insanity (shush, highschool angst days). If you are here you are either looking for information about me or my stories. I will help you out by letting you know that if you want story info you should just scroll down past this block of (probably) boring and information about me. And my cat.

About Me~

Last Updated 08-24-2016*

I feel like I've been drawn back into MySpace days (cringe). Anyway, this poor page never gets any love.

As of Fall 2016 I am currently a Senior in college studying Computer Science with a concentration in Software Engineering with a minor in Digital Media Tech. This includes programming, software design, documentation, and some other actually fun stuff like computer graphics and game design. Although mostly it's just listening to old professors drone on while they lecture and drink several bottles of coke and other caffeinated beverages (because who sleeps anymore, really?).

Unfortunately, my writing skills are slowly diminishing as college is forcing literature out of my curriculum and filling it with math and coding and other completely non-art based courses. Because obviously computer scientist have no interest in art or literature... obviously. Or maybe I really am the odd one out. And I don't only say that because I am one of approximately 5 girls pursuing this degree.

Needless to say, I have all these crazy and fascinating ideas floating around inside my head and never enough time to actually sit down and write. I remember being younger and looking forward to when all I had to worry about was college and work and let me tell you I wish I would have taken advantage of all the free time I had back then. Sure, I still have *free* time, but it is hardly ever spent doing things alone. Go figure.

I am a Christian, although probably not a very good one. I think it's been close to 6 months since I've last gone to church, but I try my best to do good by both myself and to others. The Lord knows this world needs a lot less crazy and judgmental people.

I have a lovely black cat named Freya, who is currently attempting to sit on my chest as I type. She is tiny and perfect and loves to do roll-overs when her tummy is rubbed.

Favorite, all time anime: Fullmetal Alchemist, Inuyasha, Toradora, Log Horizon, Magi: Labyrinth/ Kingdom of Magic, K Project, Re: Zero, D. Gray Man, Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun, Pandora Hearts, Kyoukai no Kanta, Bungo Stray Dogs, Soul Eater and I;m sure I am forgetting others.

Currently watching: Re: Zero, Taboo Tattoo, Nura of the Yokai Clan, Fairy Tail (after the arch about Mavis).

Favorite, all time book series: Nearly all of Tamora Pierce's books. Namely (and these are all series of hers), Song of the Lioness, Circle of Magic, The Immortals, Trickster's Choice, Beka Cooper, and Protector of the Small. I also enjoy Harry Potter, Mistborn and it's later sequels, and am currently in love with the Wheel of Time novels. Love the Eragon series as well, and Percy Jackson/ Red Pyramid series.

Currently reading: Wheel of Time (I started a few months ago and I'm on book six. What have I done to myself, there are 14 books... and a prequel), Tithe, and waiting on the next Mistborn book.

Cherished Games: Nearly every Zelda game (I am so excited for Breath of the Wild), Final Fantasy games, Bravely Dafault, and Bravely Second. I keep replaying old Sonic games and refuse to get rid of any of my previous consoles.

Currently playing: Bravely Second: End Layer, Pokemon Alpha Sapphire, Overwatch, Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn (Sargatanas: My username is Aryen Farore, but I haven't played in a while).

Favorite Quotes: Those that don't know me say I'm quiet. Those that do, wish I was.

Also, If Remus Lupin ruled the world, he would solve all problems with chocolate. Brilliant man.

Story Stats: In Progress/ High Priority:

(In tentative order of general importance.)

May Entitle Chance: Shortly after the Promised day, Edward Elric receives an unexpected assignment. The recently war torn country makes new ties with England, and the young alchemist becomes an undercover student with the charge of protecting a troublesome Boy-Who-Lived.

Threat of the Kishin: The isolation of the DWMA and Hogwarts is put aside as the wizarding world seek help from the DWMA. Along the way the DWMA cause a bit of.. chaos as they attempt to protect the school and a stubborn Boy-Who-Lived from an ever so slight Kishin problem.

The Will of the Wind: Suffering from partial amnesia, Edward's managed to put himself directly in the path of all of the darkness and war that is threatening to overtake Hyrule. Edward just wants to find a way home. Midna, however, has other plans in mind for the alchemist.

Breaking Down the Gate: When Envy forces Ed to do Alchemy, he and his brother are pulled though the gate and tossed into the HP world. Now, Ed has made a deal with Dumbledore in an effort to get themselves back to their home world, but at what cost?

Other/ Low Priority:

(I haven't given up on these, they just might sit for a while.)

Indifference: England was once part of the world of Nabari, until it died out and was replaced by a new art: Magic. Still, there is a secret that remains, one that only a few wizards know of and one that the Kairoshu intend to get their hands on. T for safety.

A Pirates Life for Me: Xemnas, out for war, orders Roxas to kidnap Namine for reasons that he just can't figure out. Later, he finds himself getting wrapped around her little fingers, but torn between following his heart or following Xemnas' orders. Whats a pirate to do?

Fire and Wind: Vaati had one goal, and he had all intentions of following through...until he saw HER, the girl he couldn't figure out. She had secrets, that much he could tell, but there was more... why was she here? And why did he feel so drawn to her?

Concealed: When Kagome and Inuyasha came out of the Bone Eaters' well, they didn't expect to end up in London standing before Dumbledore in a strange new world. Voldemort and Naraku have teamed up, causing a whole new kind of danger. Kagome and Inu. go to Hogwarts!

The Lonely and Forgotten:

They probably won't be touched for a long, long time.

Mix: Spirit Tamers: A crazy plot causes both sides of Kingdom Hearts, Inuyasha and FMA to team up and clash against each other along with three original characters that cause it all. High school life will NEVER be the same. Romance, Humor, Drama, Action...all the good stuff

Secrets and Starry Nights: Ed would have never guessed that there was another on this earth so similar, and yet so obviously different from himself. Innocent, yet filled with dark secrets he didn't dare imagine. Curious. What is she hiding, what does she want? OCs not paired w/Ed.

*NEW STORIES*

Newest is May Entitle Change. It's my new attempt at a FMA/Harry Potter crossover. I didn't really like the first all that well... Both are up and waiting to be read.

I have an idea for an Eragon/ Harry Potter. I really need to stop with this Harry Potter stuff... ah well. It's not published, although I have most of the first chapter written up. PM if you have any ideas/ suggestions/ want to be a beta, ect.

Neat Quotes: The following are mostly from Destined To Repeat's fic, "Asymmetrical: Mini Drabbles for Roy and Ed" Read It Love It, it's hilarious...and leave her a review...she deserves it!

Roy Mustang rues the day that some idiot brought a chalkboard into his office and decided to leave it there. Not only did it make him twitchy from the fact that someone had been in his office when he wasn't, it also inadvertently gave Fullmetal an Ultimate Weapon. He would never forget the nearly-crazed grin on the boy's face when he realized that the only sound more painful than fingernails on a chalkboard was metal fingers on a chalkboard. - Destined To Repeat

The day that Ed learned about the Flame Alchemist's little weakness, he stood grinning outside the Colonel's window for an hour in the rain, just to annoy him. - Destined To Repeat

It seemed that it wasn't just Roy's instructions that Ed ignored; it was instructions in general. Mustang wasn't quite sure whether to get mad or start laughing as he watched Ed slide gleefully across a stretch of tile right next to a sign that said loudly, "Caution: Wet Floor." - Destined To Repeat (This girl is a genius)

Along his career, there were many things that Roy Mustang had never really cared to ask about (or wanted to ask about) but had found out anyway. Like Edward's coffee preferences—which he had learned while he sat at his desk (supposedly) doing paperwork, with Ed lounging on top of it, having nicked the sugar from the coffee machine. The blonde had set his coffee down on the desk— Roy probably should have been yelling at him for sitting on it at all—and proceeded to pour eleven sugar packets (but no milk) into it. He stirred the mixture around, sipping it occasionally and adding more sugar as he apparently saw fit. Finally, he leaned back and gave a contented sigh.
"Would you like some coffee with your sugar?" Roy asked conversationally.
"Shut up." Ed took a long drag of his disgusting blend of unhealthiness.
"No actual coffee was harmed in the making of this beverage."
"Shut up!"

- Destined To Repeat

People were always going on about how lucky he was, how honored he should be to be under the command of the famous Roy Mustang. Clearly they had never met the guy. Ed could vaguely see where they were coming from, what with his—even Ed had to admit—incredible alchemy and strategy skills but, darn it, it was hard to respect a guy who played keep-away with your reports. - Destined to Repeat

Roy Mustang met Edward, who was a loud, short-tempered, just-slightly-obsessive brat. And then he met Winry, who was nearly as loud, frighteningly violent, and also a bit obsessive. Roy saw the signs, and he hoped to whatever gods there were that the two of them would never have a child. - Destined To Repeat

All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream - Edgar Allen Poe
