I discovered fanfiction many years ago when I was in Grade 9 and loved the show Class of the Titans. The premise of this show had merit but I see now that the show itself was awful. Nevertheless, I still found myself addicted and for the first time in my life I plunged into a fandom. I started reading fanfictions, and then writing them. God, those first fics were awful. I completed one and discontinued another, but have now deleted the shameful things off of my file. A year after CotT I suddenly woke up one December evening of Grade 10 and found myself obsessing over the amazing animated show Avatar: The Last Airbender. I became more of a fanfiction junkie than ever before, and was plagued by plotbunnies. For the ATLA fandom I wrote several oneshots, and attempted two full fanfictions, which I lost interest in and are discontinued and deleted. My obsession with ATLA lasted almost three years and a few months after the show itself ended, and the addiction faded around January 2009. In the months after I became addicted to several things for a few months, most notably Gurren Lagann which prompted one drabble. In June 2009 I began to reread my old Harry Potter books in preparations for the Half-Blood Prince's release in theatres, and since this was a time in which I was flitting from obsession to obsession I became easily enamored with the books again and promptly became addicted. I plunged into the fandom and devoured fanfiction. Plotbunnies hit, which will soon result in some fanfiction by me for the HP fandom.

You can find me on Twitter, Livejournal, and Xanga with the same name.

My Fanfiction

WIP Fanfiction:

(Note: Just because I wrote an idea down here doesn't mean I'll actually do it.

1 Corinthians 13: 4-7 - Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs... or something like that. DM/HP oneshot. (Completed - needs Beta)

Falling With Style - Harry needs an image change. Post DH but disregards epilogue. DM/HP. (Basic concept thought out)

Hands - An accident before their sixth year at Hogwarts leaves Draco and Harry both seven years-old. Incorporates beginning of HBP but is AU from there. Not slash, unless you want to read more into it then there actually is. (Basic concept thought out. Started.)

Untitled - A tongue-in-cheek fic. Draco has come into his inheritance as a male Veela, and Potter is his mate. Apparently he also has to have sex with him or die. Ferret!Veela!Draco. (Ps. I do not actually write sex scenes) DM/HP (Basic concept thought out)

Untitled - Draco is a Veela. Harry is his mate. You've seen it before. Angst. DM/HP? (Started)

Tied Silk - Harry falls in blind love with a mystery man. Based loosely on the myth of Eros and Psyche. DM/HP. (Started)

Evil Plot - Draco suddenly finds Harry absolutely adorable. Nefarious tomfoolery ensues. Tongue-in-cheek fic. DM/HP. (Started)

Untitled (Nerves?) - AU. Draco chose Dumbledore's protection in HBP. He pays for it. After Death Eaters torture him he's left living the rest of his life out with the side-affects of the Cruciatis Curse. Draco/Harry. (Basic concept thought out)

Seeing - In which Draco sees a future he really doesn't want. DM/HP. AU from middle of DH (Started)

Memories (Or "Hello" or "Obliviate") - I was told my name is Draco. I have a tattoo of a skull and snake on my left forearm, and a silver scar that runs from my stomach to my collarbone, both of origins I can not remember. That is all I know. DM/HP. Oneshot. Post DH. EWE? (Started)

Posted Fanfiction:

I only delete a fanfiction if it is incomplete and I lose interest in it and do not update it for a year. If anyone actually cares about the discontinued ones you can PM me for the plot.

The Storyteller (Gurren Lagann) -completed-

A Season of Change(Avatar: The Last Airbender) -DISCONTINUED AND DELETED-

Cuts (Avatar: The Last Airbender) -DISCONTINUED AND DELETED-

Drabblebending (Avatar: The Last Airbender)

Zutara Drabbles (Avatar: The Last Airbender)

Aftermath (Avatar: The Last Airbender) -completed-

Complicated (Avatar: The Last Airbender) -completed-

Men are Pigs (Class of the Titans) -DISCONTINUED AND DELETED- The title is a play on words, because the villain is Circe, who turned men into pigs. Funny right? Ha ha, not really. Discontinued because I got into Avatar: The Last Airbender and left the CotT fandom.

Fight of the Phoenix(Class of the Titans) -DELETED- It was the first fanfiction I had ever written, thus it was a terrible piece of shit. The whole thing was in one paragraph!

OOOO

"For the last goddamn time, shut up!" he yelled. "It's so easy for you to stand there and judge someone else when you don't know anything! When you've been holed up safe in snow and ice, have had nothing to worry about except waiting for your soldiers -- if they can even be called that -- to come back home. When you've had friends willing to bail you out of anything! When you have a clear purpose and know exactly what you're supposed to do! When you've never had to question yourself, your actions, or your goals!"

He fought back the angry stinging in his eyes and tremor in his fists, fought to lower his voice, felt it drop to a dangerous rasping growl.

"When you've lost everything...your friends, your family, even your worth as a living, breathing creature and have no chance of getting any of it back, when you've been lied to so many times that you can't even trust yourself anymore, then you can talk about pathetic. Until then, shut up. Just. Shut. Up."

OOOO

It was the look, on his face and in his eyes, that she would never in a hundred years forget. The look of a wound she hadn't known existed, the bandages torn off and the stitches ripped open and salt and acid ground into it with a broken heel. Rage and bitterness and how dare you, the scar on his eye alive, pain radiating from him like heat off a candle flame. The look that flat out told her she'd gone too far, and that she deserved whatever he had to throw at her. A look she'd seen many times before, and no doubt would be seeing many more.

- Chong Sheng Trilogy: War by Rachel the Demon (fic)

OOOO

Zuko looked at them all, putting his tea down. "Three years ago, I lost everything. My throne, my country, my honor, my dignity, because I saw injustice and dared to speak out of turn against it. My only hope had been finding the Avatar and bringing him to my father. Only then, I believed, would my life return to normal. I was wrong. It took me three years of digging through lies my sister told me and lies I told myself to realize it, but capturing the Avatar would never win back my father's favor. My old life was gone. And everything with it.

"But right before it happened, right before it all fell apart...I was told something very important: to never forget who I am. For three years, I've done exactly that, fooled by a promise that my father had no intention of keeping." He turned to look Katara square in the eye. "Someone reminded me of those words today. Of who I was. And who I still am.

"What I finally realized, after three years of hunting and searching and running around in circles, is that I had no honor to regain. I had none to start with. Honor isn't something that's given to you by virtue of birth. You have to earn it. And so far...I've done nothing that even comes close. In fact, I've done exactly the opposite." He let his voice drop to a low, determined growl. "It's time to remember who I am. To stop following and start leading, and do what I think is right for a change."

"I am Prince Zuko, heir to the throne of the Fire Nation. I can...I will change the world."

“Your sister is scary,” Sokka replied frowning.

Pulling back away from his work, Zuko shrugged into his contraption. “Your sister is too.”

Sokka laughed. “I am so telling her you said that!”

- Brothers in Arms by fuzzytomato (fic)

OOOO

She never thought she’d see the day when Zuko, Prince of the Fire Nation and all around annoying pain would be laughing while her brother rubbed mud into his hair. Of course, she never thought she’d see him helping Sokka out with chores, mentoring Aang or exchanging sarcastic quips with Toph either. But he did without complaint even when she was openly antagonistic.

- Brothers in Arms by fuzzytomato (fic)

OOOO

Another awkward silence passed between them. Both boys lost in thought, not quite sure how to articulate what they wanted to say.

“Are we friends?” Zuko suddenly blurted.

Sokka smirked. “Zuko, you risked your life for me several times. I’m pretty sure that qualifies as friendship. Why do you ask?”

“I’ve…I’m…nevermind!” Zuko replied angrily, embarrassed. He turned away, crossing his arms, black hair falling in his face.

Sokka wondered what had made Zuko shift moods so quickly. Then it hit him; the way that Zuko had never uttered the word ‘friend,’ and the way he had been so awkward and unsure of himself in amiable conversations.

“You’ve…you’ve never had a friend before. Have you?”

Zuko sighed and offered a very quiet, very subdued. “No.” There was another moment of silence before the exile continued. “I'm not like you; I never had friends to travel the world with.”

“Bad kids runnin’ around these days... and too many shirtless boys. You look out on that beach! Far too many of them, all boys, all running around half-naked like it’s the Garden of Eden!”

- Since the Jeans by Jeccelo (fic)

OOOO

“well…if that had been me in your place…” Sokka let out a short sigh. “I’d have a scar too,” he finished softly.

Zuko glanced at the other boy uncertainly, but as their eyes met, he could see quite plainly that Sokka meant what he said. A strange sensation came over Zuko that was not unlike what he felt earlier that day when the water tribe boy had so casually referred to himself as Zuko’s friend. And in that instant, a rare bond was forged between them that neither would ever be able to fully describe, only accept as fact.

The two then looked away awkwardly, as if suddenly self-conscious of the profound acceptance they had just shared in that moment, and Sokka let out a short laugh.

“Of course, mine would have been right across my big mouth,” he quipped.

Zuko snorted lightly, “Like that would shut you up.”

“Yeah…probably not,” Sokka admitted with a huge grin.

OOOO

And that was when it struck Katara that perhaps Zuko hadn’t changed at all. Maybe he had simply stopped pretending to be someone he wasn’t. And that the fierce prince who had chased them all over the world wasn’t the real Zuko. It was someone he had fabricated in an effort to do what he felt had to be done. Suddenly, it all made perfect sense...

“Stop being afraid of what you are. When I got this,” he pointed to his scar, “I gave up bending for almost a year. All I remembered was the pain, until I faced it.”

- Rising Pheonix by HyacinthMacaw (fic)

OOOO

But even though everyone in the room was now laughing at her, the indignation that should have welled up in Katara never came. She was far too busy staring in shock at Zuko….laughing. It was such an unusual sight, unprecedented and yet somehow so natural, that she began chuckling along with the rest of the group in spite of herself.

And somewhere in the back of Zuko’s mind, a scornful voice was telling him that he really shouldn’t be laughing. That there was far too much need for seriousness and worry to allow for this ridiculous indulgence of humor. But logic and reason seemed to have fled his being entirely. And with it the walls of self-control, built up over half a lifetime, suddenly crumbled under a raging torrent of emotion.

Like the violent rushing waves of a flooding river bursting through a dam, hurt and fear and joy and sorrow poured forth through that sound. All the years of self-doubt and despair, of anguish and pain, of remorse and grief, came roaring out of him in this singular, inexplicable, and completely uncontrollable laughter.

And it hurt. Spirits how it hurt. So much so, that tears were rolling from the corner of his good eye. Yet despite the burning in his lungs and the chaos of his unleashed emotions, it felt so good.

"Fun," repeated Zuko dubiously.

"Fun. You are familiar with the idea, aren't you?"

Zuko narrowed his eyes. "I've heard of it."

OOOO

"I haven't even been here a week,” he began, haltingly, “and I'm already..." He paused. Somewhere in the distance, a light went out. "I'm worried that I'll become... content. It's not that I feel like I belong here – it's exactly the opposite. Every day I spend in this city makes me feel less like myself.”

-http://community.livejournal.com/therewolf/3895.html

OOOO

"Right now I'm feeling hungry," he said. "Very, very hungry. I haven't eaten since yesterday's lunch."

"Oh," said Hermione, obscurely disappointed. She dragged Harry´s bag around to where she could get at the zipper. She was now sitting next to Draco. "I brought a little food...I´ve got Chocolate Frogs, butterbeer, and pickles."

Draco made a face. "I said I was hungry, not pregnant."

- Draco Dormiens by Cassandra Claire (fic)

OOOO

“Zuuuuko, I am the ghost of your great great grand-uncle Waaaang-”

Zuko dissolved into suppressed laughter. “Don’t make me laugh; I’ll spill it everywhere.” He paused. “Why is this even here? This isn’t where we normally keep our ashes.”

“Maybe it’s Fire Lord Rizu’s pet dragon-hawk,” Katara said. “It is kind of a small urn.”

“Great. I’m going to be haunted by a ghostly dragon-hawk. Fantastic.”

“Maybe if you offer it some mice…?”

- Stormbenders by Fandomme (fic)

OOOO

He took a deep breath, sent fire bursting from his hand, and gently pushed open the door. It made no creak, and opened onto darkness. Katara listened for snoring, and heard none. There was a faint grunt, and the sound of fabric, and then Ozai was walking toward them-

-naked.

Then Zuko’s hand was over her eyes and she didn’t know whether to laugh or be sick or maybe even start crying, and she heard water in the next room and then Zuko was pulling her out of the room and pushing her into the office. He opened the liquor cabinet, pulled a bottle, opened the trapdoor, and helped her inside. “Slide down!” he said tersely, and she gripped the sides of the ladder with her feet before letting herself go. Zuko followed. She landed on the grate just before him, and he slid open the panel leading to his own room before pushing her inside and pulling the panel down again. They slumped against the wall together.

“So,” he said. “That happened.”

“It’s okay. It wasn’t that big. Bad. I mean. It wasn’t that bad.” Katara buried her face in her hands. Blood throbbed under her skin. “I just said that. Wow. Please don’t ever look at me again.”

- Stormbenders by Fandomme (fic)

OOOO

Katara bit her lip. “You didn’t hurt him. You could have, and you didn’t.”

Zuko’s eyes lifted. “I wanted to. And that’s enough.” He looked at the floor. “Your brother, too. Suddenly he was waving that sword around and it was like I was this different person. I just wanted to grab him and…” He sighed shakily. “I’ve been trying really hard to change. I want to be good. But when he… And when Aang…” He looked up at her again. “Are you sure you’re not hurt?”

- Stormbenders by Fandomme (fic)

OOOO

"I know that!" Zuko broke her grip on him and stepped away. "She doesn't know me! She's never seen me like this!"

"Like what? Taller?"

"Like this," Zuko said, pointing to the scar. "She's never seen my face."

Katara rolled her eyes. "Who cares about your face?"

"You do! It's the enemy's face, you said-"

"I didn't mean it like that! You think I'm that shallow, Zuko? You think your mom is that shallow?" She stepped forward and jabbed him in the chest. "If you don't have the guts to face up to your own mother, then you don't have what it takes to be in this group."

Zuko gently moved her pointing finger away. "Then maybe I don't have what it takes. Maybe I'm just ugly inside and out."

Katara bit her lip. She gave Zuko's scar a hard look. Funny, how she couldn't really imagine him without it. "Do you know what I would give to have my mom alive to tell me I was ugly?" she asked in a tiny voice. "Do you?"

- Gathering by Fandomme (fic)

OOOO

“Why can’t you just be a monster?” She gritted furiously as she struggled to her feet. “Or be a hero.” Her hands clenched at her sides and she felt her throat close around a thick sob. “So I can hate you or love you without regrets.”

“Hungry?”

“Are you kidding? I could eat Momo.”

“I know you’re joking, but when you’re ready to take down the lemur, I’m in.” Sokka said conspiratorially.

OOOO

“I didn’t say ‘yes’.”

“Not yet, but I have all night to convince you.”

“The sexy kind of convincing or the badgering until I give in from pure exhaustion kind?”

“Badgering.”

“I concede defeat.”

OOOO

“I don’t know how they ended up here—all I know is that Fu Manchu and I—”

“Haru,” the mustache-clad earthbender corrected him, with a growl.

“—hunted them—actually I did most of the hunting with my trusty boomerang—Fu Manchu did a lot of girly screaming and mustache twirling—but the bottom line is, we have brought home the meat!” Sokka did a little victory dance, still holding the pickens; and then posed in an attempt at a macho hunting stance, his fist raised, lowering his voice dramatically by three octaves. “We have brought you meat, children. You will no longer go hungry, for we have hunted the meat!”

OOOO

"You're the shittiest planner I've ever met in my entire life."

"What?! I...FUCK YOU!"

"Like when you kidnapped Aang and got yourself trapped in a cave in the middle of a blizzard-"

"I WOULD HAVE FIGURED SOMETHING OUT."

"And when you went chasing after us in a fucking BALLOON with ONE SANDWICH."

"I WAS IN A HURRY."
