Introduction
She/her. Smartfood addict. Feminist, leftist and currently enrolled in the College of Hard Knocks.

I am pro-ship or at least, neutral towards any ship by default. I do not like ship wars and find them utterly pointless (not to mention, against the spirit of shipping itself). When I really like a pairing, I'm very loyal to it. Because of this, I tend not to multiship.

Right now, my favorite pairing is TanuNatsu from Natsume Yuujinchou.

Here are some of my favorite nerdy things —


 * Anime/Manga: Studio Ghibli, Hunter x Hunter, Natsume Yuujinchou, Your Lie in April, Bloom Into You
 * Video Games: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and Majora's Mask, NieR

Wiki-Related
If I really like a pairing and it doesn't have a page yet, I'll usually make one for it.


 * Pages created: (HxH) HisoMachi, PitoKai, KuraSen, PariGing; (NieR) NierKai, 2B/6O; (Hades) ThanZag
 * To-do list: create pages for TanuNatsu and 2B/9S

Fanfiction Recommendations
I read a lot of fanfiction, and these are some of my favorites which I've accumulated over the years. If you'd like to recommend something to me, please feel free to do so!

Fire Emblem

 * gone to ground by merionettes (acchikocchi) | Pairing(s): Felix/Sylvain | Rating: M | A wilderness survival story. Felix and Sylvain are forced on-the-run when their negotiations with another territory go terribly wrong. Thus begins their struggle to survive, not only against those pursuing them, but also against nature itself.
 * on this night, and in this light by astrid_fischer | Pairing(s): Felix/Sylvain | Rating: T | Your classic rom-com, fake-dating story — only done very right. Cliché premise with an original execution.

Haikyuu!!

 * carry your throne by seconddaysea | Pairing(s): Kageyama/Hinata | Rating: T | I almost don't have words for this. One of the few fics to ever make me cry. Maybe the best way to describe it is simply — growing up. Please read it.

Kingdom Hearts

 * Water by the.israel.project107 | Pairing(s): Sora/Riku, Demyx/Zexion | Rating: M | One of the best fanfics I've ever read. The story is incredibly original yet fitting to KH, and there's plenty of FF7 cameos. A near perfect fanfic, please read this.
 * Haunted by an Angel and Song of the Condemned by LoquitorLatinae | Pairing(s): Sora/Riku, Axel/Roxas, Leon/Cloud | Rating: T | Two-part series with a classic plot — Riku's a ghost and the Leonhart-Strife family moves into the house he haunts. Incredibly well written, both stories are very robust. Also, you will fall in love with Leon and Cloud's quirky, semi-dysfunctional family.
 * Rain Shadow by Nitlon | Pairing(s): Sora/Riku | Rating: T | Warning(s): internalized homophobia, mentions of suicide | Incredibly unique writing style. High school AU with a spin, lots of relatable teenage angst in here. Will tug on your heartstrings but it's recommended.
 * The Mortician's Son by Corrosive Moon | Pairing(s): Sora/Riku | Rating: T | One of the most fun stories I've ever read. Sora's characterization in this fic is pure love. You will fall in love with the quirkiness, seriously. Black magic, witchcraft and light mystery/horror are prominent themes here.
 * Moonlight Flower by dizzyduck5 | Pairing(s): Sora/Riku, Leon/Cloud | Rating: M | Warning(s): non-con | A short but incredibly sweet fic about Sora, his dads, and baker!Riku. The fairytale-esque storyline is so well-contained, it's got near perfect closure. Read it and feel your heart melt.
 * Bug Spray by DarkeAngelle | Pairing(s): Sora/Riku, Axel/Roxas | Rating: T | Warning(s): unfinished, chronic mental/physical illness | This fic is incredibly sad and it's also incomplete, but it's still got some important themes and some of the greatest characterization I've read in a fic. It's still very worth the read IMO.
