ValkyrieDownhide bio
 Author has written 10 stories for Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy I-VI, and Mass Effect. Frontline disclaimer: I work. A lot. If you've read or are thinking about beginning my most recent story, please be patient as I work the ending. It's been a long damn time, but I haven't forgotten. Hello! A short blurb about me: I'm a weapon's tech in the USN. I'm stationed in sunny, beautiful Hawaii, and when I'm not working (which is NEVER) I'm driving around without the doors in my super sweet Jeep Wrangler. I love to play video games (again, which is NEVER coz I'm always working .-. ) my favorite being Mass Effect. I used to play the fuuu out of some Final Fantasy... but those are days long past. I've been here on and off working on a Garrus/Shep story... which is by far the greatest couple in the fictional world. |
