Welcome!
Thanks for stopping by! Current fandoms include Kingdom Hearts and FF7. I'm also a fan of Hunter x Hunter, though no longer involved in the fandom itself much. Don't be surprised to see me poking around other fandoms though... I've been around for awhile x_x

I'm pretty much okay with any ship, but these are my favorites —


 * Kingdom Hearts: Soriku, RokuShi, AkuSai
 * Final Fantasy VII: Clerith
 * Hunter x Hunter: PariGing, KuraSen

My favorite characters by fandom:


 * Kingdom Hearts: Riku, Aqua
 * Final Fantasy VII: Aerith

I tend to be extremely verbose when creating/editing pages... I really can't help it ._.;;

Fanfiction Recommendations
I got the idea to make this section because I'd like to spread the word about my favorite fanfics. I read a lot of them and am always looking to read more. (It's an obsession.) Drop me a rec or two (or ten) if you'd like to, I'd appreciate it beyond words :)

I'll update this section periodically, whenever I've found something new to recommend ^^

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.
 * Paradigm by nicayal | Pairing(s): Axel/Roxas, Sora/Riku | Rating: M | Warning(s): multiple — check the story tags for all of them; unfinished | A story where Kingdom Hearts meets the Bible Belt. Fascinating descriptions of every day life in the midwest (seems like an oxymoron but trust me, it's not... unless you're from the midwest, maybe). Romance with a heavy dose of gen. Incredible development of the characters and their backstories. Recommended but tread carefully, it will probably make your heart ache.

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.
