Recovering, slowly but surely, and having scrapped all my unfinished chapters and stories I'm building up my promised (and ongoing) stories to a fresh conclusion. Sadly, I'm struggling with steady quality writing but at least I'm feeling like my storytelling is getting better each rewrite so when I finally manage new releases - they're gonna be worth the wait (in my not-so-humble opinion)

I made a decision to keep this penname reserved for GL only, and made a separate account as Seiko Tanuki for all things else (/u/9402722/)

[for now it's just for reading though, as I want to keep focusing on the fics I already got going]

Also now on Fictionpress as Seiko Tanuki (https://www.fictionpress.info/u/1095387/)

[until finishing my ongoing works here, it'll just be poems and short stories]

Anyhow, elsewhere on the news :

One important thing to know about this one as an author is ;

I love ship teases, love triangles/quadrangles/with as many as there can be-angles. The more complex and morally ambiguous the better. Just for you to know to trust no pairing not explicitly marked to exist, all other are subjects to a change, always, no matter the story.

However, what you shouldn't expect - is polygamy. That won't work happily, not in most cases, and as weird little raccoon this one is, I do love my happy endings.

Summaries/descriptions/andthelike for my ongoing stories (to be updated if needed) :

Love Left Unspoken :

A story about the aftermath of the breakup between Nanoha and Fate, where Hayate had filled in the role Fate should've as the supporter of the brunette we all know and love. And as the two women go on about their life, they start discovering there might be more between them than they thought or let anyone knew. Our favorite blonde, however, is not ready to let her dream slip by without a fight.

How could the perfect couple fall apart, will the women be able to reconcile, and could there still be a happy ending - for everyone?

All that, and much more will be revealed inside the story.

For the most part I've tried to draw the plot/characterization/story background/etc from canon to keep the feel as 'authentic' as possible. For the rest, and the initial idea, my old journals serve as much of the basis, so in a way this is kinda personal as well, even if I try to keep it more Nanoha than me. If I fail at that, please tell me.

Also, sorry I made it sound like commercial. I just had to, ya know.

Strike Love :

Nanoha Takamachi is hot, and not just the way she looks, nuh-uh, she's 'the real deal' and loving it. However, a certain blonde transfer student begs to differ, and is set on to make the haughty brunette beg all the same, just in a different way...and where this leads us? To a story about two Japanese women settling on Midchilda while playing volleyball, both dead set on forgetting the third of their childhood group, until she enrolls the same academy that is.

A NanoFate story with a twist, or well...with a lot of twists, and volleyball.

AU where sports serve to replace magic.

In this story, most things are either far from how it seems, or exactly like it. And the jerk I am...I'm so not telling which! *evil laugh*...okay...anyhow, there's going to be a very happy ending -for most if not everyone- so look forward to it.

Originally this was based on an incomplete (/scrapped) story idea of an old 'senpai', but as we rewrote the storyboard to match better all the new things I came up for this, it came more like inspired than based..but I'm happy, and excited, with how things are looking for this. And even as I got some help in the beginning, I'm now working on it all on my own, so every bit of feedback's much appreciated.

There are also 'a few' other stories I'm working on, a bit by bit, whenever I need a break or feel stuck with my main ones.

That said, nice to meet you, would be nice to do it again ;) so don't forget the share your thoughts on this one, especially about the fics I write. Or rather please do ; I'm looking to improve.
