Author has written 35 stories for Inuyasha.

Never more than forthright.

I came to read. I stayed to write.

I ship everyone... or no one. Take your pick!

Incorrigible - a drabble and oneshot collection featuring Miroku and his uncertain pursuit of Kagome. Fluff and tease. Invariably deemed 'cute' by reviewers everywhere, but rife with witty wordplay.

Imperceptible - a story told through a series of drabbles and oneshots, featuring Sesshoumaru and Kagome. This is my effort to present a plausible association between the two. Any romantic leanings will be slow in coming, hence the title.

Tolerable - a drabble and oneshot collection featuring Miroku and Sesshoumaru. These two offer the most delicious possibilities for comedy, so I threw together a bit of back story to bolster my plausibility and thrust the two into one of the fandom's more unlikely friendships.

Inevitable - a drabble and oneshot collection featuring Inuyasha and Kagome. I'm an odd duck with a liking for alternate pairings, but every so often one of my friends will ply me with plot!bunnies and puppy-dog eyes and I'll succumb. This is the spot for all you canoneers to find your fluff.

Undeniable - a story told through a series of drabbles and oneshots, with Sesshoumaru and Rin as the focus. I begin at the beginning so we can watch the slow and steady change in the taiyoukai's opinions about his bright little shadow.

Unexpected - a story told through a series of drabbles and oneshots, this time featuring Inuyasha and Kagome in an alternate universe. She's the principal of an elementary school. He's the janitor.

Unspoken - a collection of scenes that go back to the very beginning of Inuyasha and Kagome's story, when everything was too new and too precious for words. Unlike Inevitable, these bits and pieces work together to tell a larger story--a love story.

Unspoiled - a story told through a series of drabbles and oneshots in which Kagome is tossed into the distant past and encounters a very young Sesshoumaru. Believe it or not, this is going to be a romance, but it's definitely taking the scenic route.

COMPLETED MULTI-CHAPTER STORIES

The Kissing Bandit - AU. An art thief with an unusual calling card is after a set of priceless statues. The Taishos take steps to protect the Four Souls, but the cat burglar is elusive. When Sango steps forward as a witness, she’s asked to help catch the ‘Casanova' crook. Miroku x Sango.

Impeccable - AU. Kagome is stunned to learn that she has inherited a sizable fortune, a Japanese estate, and an indentured youkai. She's the unlikely heiress, and Sesshoumaru is the perfect butler. Sesshoumaru x Kagome.

Unsought - CU. Naraku is dead. The Jewel is complete. The quest is over. Everyone is ready for their long awaited 'happily ever after', but Fate has one last twist in store. Sometimes the ending you find is not the one you were looking for. Miroku x Kagome.
