Author has written 50 stories for Hakuōki/薄桜鬼, Fairy Tail, Amnesia/アムネシア, Ikemen Sengoku: Romances Across Time, Midnight Cinderella, Ikemen Vampire, and Tokyo Ghoul/東京喰種トーキョーグール. NOTE [November 28, 2019: I've been on a long (2-3 month) hiatus due to illness and losses in the family. I hope to be back very soon, and I am not giving up on Teachings of Demons! ToD still has mysteries to unravel! * As shocking as it is, I do not own Hakuouki or any of the characters from Hakuouki - but they're still fun to write about. * *Sadly, I am not the owner of any of the Fairy Tail characters either.* *I do own my own Hakuouki characters and those parts of my various stories that are based in my own bizarre imagination. Yes!* FAMILY TREE FOR TEACHINGS OF DEMONS is located here: www (dot) familyecho (dot) com/?p=QQ883&c=15d0gmi6qy&f=753422844872576710 Please feel free to find me on tumblr [...] also as impracticaldemon. All the Saito images do indicate a preference, but I try to post Hakuouki stuff for everyone. Currently watching Fairy Tail 2018 and trying to find time to watch Inuyasha and Noragami.

We have a kind of respectful antagonism, each conceding the other's virtues while doing our best to win. I don't sleep much - I am working on it. My health has been a problem for a while now, which is annoying. Languages: · I speak and read French fluently (and can write if necessary). I understand German, Spanish and Italian in a limited way. · I wish I could speak/read/understand Japanese, but alas, so far I can only make out common expressions and phrases, sometimes just a bit more. Stories: · The first story I took seriously helped get me my first "real" summer job. It was called "Among Thieves" and was very D&D. I still love Drizz't (but he wasn't in the story). · The only story I completed during university was published and paid for by a US magazine. That was cool. The Teachings of Demons for Hakuouki is my main story. It is over 450,000 words - so I'm basically onto Book 4. Hmmm. I've been writing for Ikemen Sengoku (Cybird Otome) lately. Games: · I play PC games far more than console games. I'm a bit of a Steam junkie when I'm not writing. · My games vary from visual novels to strategy/simulator/civilization-builders to RPGs like Skyrim and Dragon Age: Origins. Yes, I've been a Grey Warden. · I've gone through a Zelda phase, a Lego game phase (Lego LotR was amazing), and a Fire Emblem phase. Always end up back on the PC. · Discovering Hakuouki: Stories of the Shingsengumi (PS3) made me want to start writing again. · Currently playing Nightshade and Kokorogawari; also have the Code Realize fandisk game to play (PS Vita). Reading: I read almost anything, although there are limits. When in dire straits I will pick up whatever is lying around. This means I've read some pretty strange stuff. Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read my stories. * I also try to read other people's stories and leave them reviews. * J'aimerais remercier tous/toutes qui prennent le temps de lire mes histoires et de me glisser un mot dans un review ou un message (PM). :) POETRY EXCERPTS FOR THE SHINSENGUMI and others who have tried to change the world or followed lost causes...
