Hello and welcome to my profile! I've just recently updated this entire page, since the last time I went through it, it was rather... outdated. So, I decided to organize it like so:

About me:

My real name is A.E.Croft. My pen name is obviously Leonahari or Leo Almadzi depending on what I'm writing.

I am female, 19 yrs old, third year at SFU for my Double Major in History and Biology.

I have written two novels, several short stories and one poem - some of these are in various writers magazines, student and other.

Current Favorite Quote:

"...I'm going to take a potato chip...and eat it!" (Deathnote, Light).

"I couldn't live in a world without Light!" "Yes, that would be dark," (Misa and L).

Favorite Characters:

From Full Metal Alchemist:

Envy, Edward and Roy. The sexy trio!

From FF12:

Larsa, Vaan and Balthier.

From FF7:

Tseng, Reno, Kadaj, Cloud, Genesis, Zack and Sephiroth.

From Death Note:

L Lawliet, Matsuda and Near.

About my writing:

I am told I have a particular style; it is both a blessing and a curse. It's nice to have found my writing 'voice', but I have trouble deviating from it when I feel even the slightest bit adventurous.

I tend to write in the third person - omniscient or limited.

Lately (Sept. 08), however, I've been experimenting with first person, and I'm leaning more toward that now more than ever. I plan to write more stories in first person.

I enjoy writing romance, adventure and anything that catches my attention, spur of the moment type things.

I am not embarrassed to write 'lemons' or sexual scenes, but for the sake of my readers, I try and keep it as conservative as possible - if that's what they want ;P

I enjoy criticism - I tend to be very selfish in that department.

About my stories on fanfiction.net:

Hell Does Part Us - A Penelo/Larsa fic devoted to the adventures and romances of FF12. Also features all the characters in the beginning of an arch of two sides.

Resurrected - The sequel to the last, it is virtually a L/P, but features a range of other pairings. For ex: Basch/Ashe. This is also the story mostly devoted to the entire party of FF12 and my own original characters (only two). (This story will undergo revision before Christmas and the last chapter, Ch. 30, will be rewritten due to some comments and suggestions from my reviewers. I sincerely apologize for my failure to write that chapter properly. I agree that it seemed rushed and not very satisfying.)

You Never Knew - My first person experiment from the point of view of my own character watching Larsa grow up. The family ties, ones which broke and formed over time.

Incomplete - A Kadaj/Yuffie fic. The story says 'complete', but I plan to revisit it and add more chapters as soon as I complete what I have on my short-list.

Nemo - First addition to a three-part story about the workings between CC and DoC. A twist to create an unsuspected perfect monster not originated from either Project S nor G. This story is now 'complete'.

Crimson Knight - Sequel to 'Nemo'.

Eternally 23 - Now being updated regularly. Sequel to Nemo and the Crimson Knight. It is the final part to the trilogy. Plot mostly complete. Driven by revenge, Genesis Rhapsodos awakens from the nightmare of Deep Ground and establishes his own goal to destroy Shinra. Meanwhile, Shinra has completed another Project called Icarus and plans to announce it to the world as Professor Hojo's greatest accomplishment. Could another Sephiroth have been created or has Hojo really managed to create the perfect specimen? Genesis/OC (Tainean)

A Division of Zero - (possibly on queue). Envy/OC maybe. Plot is not finished.

Of Bullets and Mercury - Envy/Winry story. Winry gets kidnapped by Envy to become Dante's next body instead of Roze. Will Edward be the one to save her or will another decide to play the hero? Includes our favorite homunculi, Sciezka, Edward, Alphonse, Dante, Winry and the rest of your favorite FMA characters. NO O/Cs this time.

Upcoming/Possible Stories:

All That was Left Behind - Envy/Winry fic. This may be the third Envy/Winry that I write. I have a rough plot mapped out already for it, but it's just a blueprint of the basic idea. It came from this: I was watching Ling Yao get turned into a homunculus and thought, what if Envy's prior self was still there in his head along with the parasite called Envy? So, for the summary: Ed finds a unique device while visiting Xerxes and brings it back to Risenbool for Winry's proffessonal opinion. After fooling around with it, Ed, Al and Winry find themselves in an unfamiliar world - roughly 200 years in the past! What's worse, the time device decided to break at their arrival, so now they're stuck there. But where is there? Xerxes, 200 years in the past, when it was a bustling alchemy city just like Central. After some thought, they go in search of someone who can help them fix the time device and send them back to the future where they came from. They are pointed in the direction of a famous inventor named William Thiessen - who just happens to look identical to Envy's favored form. After getting past this intial shock, Ed and Al have no choice but to ask him for help, but it seems like William has problems of his own. Ed, Al and Winry decide to help him sort them out in return for his aid in getting them back into the future. (This is AU obviously, and there must be OC's to make it work, but it mainly centers around our four favorite characters: Envy, Ed, Al and Winry. I always wanted to know how Envy came to be Envy, and what his life was like before, and in this fic I do my best to answer that...with a little romance involved of course.) I look forward to writing this fic.

Comments:

I do tend to put original characters in my stories, simply because I like to own something of my writing. It also helps for character development of the in-game characters (I won't explain, because it will take too long). I would appreciate if you review my work that you don't flame my OC's just because they're 'OC's. Take time to decide if you like their creation or not. If I have done my duty as a writer well, then hopefully, you will enjoy them no matter what. I've been told on several occasions that my OC's are almost canon and I hope I continue that tradition.

Otherwise, please enjoy my stories, leave your feedback or not, and I will remain,

Sincerely yours,

Leonahari
