Two years... Wow, it's been two years on this site!
About the Author
There's really nothing I can safely say about myself in reality... but I'll try. I'm a dedicated gamer, for one thing. Especially when it comes to RPGs. I just got three such games near Christmas this year: dotHack Infection, Dragon Quest VIII, and Final Fantasy XII. And I'm beginning to find that I just can't get away from any of them when I get the chance to play...
Ahem. I'm also a self-proclaimed nerd. There's nothing wrong with that, actually. Most importantly, it means that I can immediately alienate myself from the jocks and jerks of any part of society. And, believe me, that's an important thing to be able to do.
Oh, and I'm male. I think that should've been somewhat obvious, but I can't be sure... Bah, I'm just no good at this. The real use for a profile is to give out information about one's fan fiction. Because that's why we're all here, isn't it?
Stories
-- My Reports --
Summary: These are, literally, my reports. Kinda like the Ansem Reports, except way out of character. I made five theories about Kingdom Hearts II, which seemed to really clear things up for me. I put them up here, in the hope that they might explain things for other fans of the game as well.
My Comments: I've had these for a long while, but they never really made it anywhere. I had no one else to share them with. That's why they ended up being my first submission to the site. And I must say that when you share, it's amazing how other people will share back. In my few reviews for this, I've seen many other theories of many kinds, which has greatly interested me. So this submission wasn't the dead weight I had first thought it was...

Status: Complete. One chapter. I don't plan on putting up any more Reports any time soon.
-- The Interference: Final Mix --
Summary: Ah, yes, my main claim to fame. A Kingdom Hearts self-insertion fan fiction. It's about a young teen fan named Alexander who ends up living out the game Kingdom Hearts II. He ends up slightly interfering with some elements of the game, and becomes dubbed the Interference. Hence the name. My first real fanfic, and also a lengthy one. It contains some of my best original concepts for the game. From the reviews I've been getting, I think it also does away with a good chunk of the usual "sucked-into-Kingdom-Hearts" cliches. But I can't be the judge for you; go read The Interference for yourself!
My Comments: This story desperately needed a Final Mix. With my improved writing style, I can make this story one heck of a lot better. People thought it was a good story before, but it'll be phenomenal this time around. Besides, I could hardly read the old version without cringing, so this is more for myself than for anyone else.

Progress: through Reviving Hollow Bastion.
Next chapter(s): The Land of Dragons and Waltz of the Diamond.
-- The Interference II: Curse of the Crimson Elixir --
Summary: I said there would be no more additions to The Interference. I never said there wouldn't be a sequel. A Kingdom Hearts/Fullmetal Alchemist crossover just released on the New Year, this is the next installment in what I hope will be the Interference saga. This time, Alexander's sister gets sucked into a Fullmetal Alchemist game. Knowing that she's a fangirl, Alex goes in after her to make sure that she doesn't get herself killed. And we all should know that there's plenty in the way of letting him do that...
My Comments: This was quite a bit more challenging to write. For one thing, I was dragging Kingdom Hearts fans into the Fullmetal Alchemist universe without much warning. And many of those fans hadn't heard much of FMA. So I had to do extra work to make sure that my old readership still understood what was going on even if they hadn't seen the material in question. On the plus side, the Fullmetal Alchemist games aren't nearly as popular as Kingdom Hearts II is. So some of the content therein will be new to even those who've seen the anime but haven't played the game.

-- The Interference III: Wings of Time --
Summary: The shortly-awaited sequel to the sequel of The Interference. This is a Fullmetal Alchemist/Chrono Trigger/Kingdom Hearts crossover, if you're going to be technical about it. That's right, Alexander brings the Elric brothers from Amestris headfirst into the world of Chrono Trigger, called Guardia. They hope to find another of Ansem the Wise's lost apprentices before they beat the game. And since those Heartless sages are obviously keeping a close eye on the Interference's actions, it's very likely they'll run into more trouble than they bargained for...
My Comments: I now have a full-fledged series. There's some good and bad aspects to that. For one thing, it means I can continue writing this story even after the previous ending, and it's a fun story to write. On the other hand, this story has to live up (and possibly exceed) the expectations I laid down in the other two stories. So the pressure's on, and I need to put my best effort into this. Additionally, Fullmetal Alchemist and Chrono Trigger... that kind of crossover is generally unheard of. I've put many new cards into my hand, and now I have to play them all right...

-- The Interference IV: Dark Renegade --
Summary: With a trilogy of adventure already gone by, the quest doesn't end yet. Now Alexander travels to the world of Jak II to face the next challenge. But, in doing so, he ends up falling further into the darkness than he wants, and it leaves its mark on him. Through these events, his life, his friends, his mind, and even his body will be forced to undergo a metamorphosis to overcome the darkness.
My Comments: This was supposed to be released after the Final Mix Project, but I had begun to stagnate. So I decided that I needed to start. I'm glad for this, because this is the part of the series where some of the biggest stuff is going to happen...

-- "The Interference" Fan Art --
I've had several people ask for my permission to do some fan art of The Interference. I've given you all permission, but on one condition. One way or another, I want you to show me the fan art once you're finished with it. I really want to see it. DeviantArt, ImageShack, I don't care how you do it. Just allow me to see it somehow. Here's some fan art other people have already done:

If you're an anonymous reviewer, I won't be able to reply to your review if I want to. So, if you ask me a question or something like that, I'll reply to it here instead. You'll have to go looking for it, and there's no email alert, but I don't have much choice otherwise. Anyway, look for replies to anonymous reviews here.
(No replies as of right now.)
-- The Interference: Legends --
I've done it. I've created a Proboards roleplay forum based on the concepts of my series, The Interference. Here you can create your own character (or register for a canon character, if you'd like) and roleplay that character in the worlds of Kingdom Hearts and/or Fullmetal Alchemist. I'm the head administrator, and I usually will roleplay Alexander there. It's just starting out, but I think it'll turn out great. If you liked the stories of The Interference, then you're invited to roleplay in that universe! Come and join The Interference: Legends!
Well, that's all I have to say. If you're done reading this, then go ahead and read one of my fan fictions! Either that, or go check out my favorites. I don't favorite that often, so you can be assured that these stories and authors have plenty of quality. Go on, then!
