"One does not write because one has to tell a story, one writes because one has a story to tell"

Hi there!

I'm a 24-year-old software developer from sunny South Africa. I work for a large medical insurance company, and I love my work as long as it doesn't interfere with my fanfic time, LOL ;D

The first manga I ever read was Vampire Knight, and I fell in love with it instantly. (What's not to love, right? :D)
Since then I've read other manga too, and enjoyed them, although nothing so far has come close to VK.

I enjoy ice skating, curling up with a good book, listening to rock music with thought-provoking lyrics and of course anything related to my Vampire Knight obsession!

Pairing-wise I absolutely adore KanamexZero/ZeroxKaname, and I ship KanamexYuukixZero as a threesome as well.

When it comes to het pairings I prefer writing ZeroxYuuki to KanamexYuuki for some reason, but I read both.
Other pairings I'm a big fan of include:

KainxRuka
TakumaxShiki (ShikixTakuma to a lesser extent)
ShizukaxIchiru

And - of course - my guilty pleasure: Asato Ichijo x Kaname in an torture/abuse/non-con way. XD

I have a twitter account which I update regularly with bits of news about my fics and which chapters I'm currently working on - so if you're curious about which fic I'll update next, that's the place to go.

I also have a LiveJournal where I will occasionally post extras/AU scenes for my fics as well as some thoughts and comments on my latest chapters. You can access it via the "homepage" link above, or access the individual extras/AU scenes directly via the links in the "My Fics" section below. Do leave a comment if you enjoy them!

Newsflash (2009-07-13)

Devil's Pawn has been updated with Chapter 9: Broken Wings. I hope the sadistic fangirls out there enjoy it :D For those of you who prefer comfort to hurt, the next chapter of Devil's Pawn will be a lot softer, LOL.

My Fics:

--
Twilight

1928: (complete) The idea for this one-shot came to me as I sat curled in my favourite chair re-reading Twilight for the umpteenth time (just can't get enough of that book!). I started thinking about what the factors might have been that finally drove Edward to leave Carlisle.

Vampire Knight

Crimson Silk: (in progress) This one hit me out of the blue when I was thinking about Ichiru and Shizuka's time together before her reappearance at the academy. I noticed there weren't very many fics with this pairing, so I decided to try it out. Was originally a oneshot, but has now been expanded into a collection of drabbles.

Twisted Fates: (in progress) My first multi-chapter fic. This one has been an interesting experience for me. I wrote the first chapter, intending to publish it as a one-shot, but then I couldn't get it out of my head and I started expanding on the idea.
--LJ Extras--
1. Punish Me: A short, yaoi scene between Shiki and Takuma based off hints in chapter 9.

Devil's Pawn: (in progress) There were a lot of requests/hints floating around for a Kaname/Asato fic, so I decided to give in to the relentless plotbunnies and write this. The main focus in it is Takuma and Kaname's friendship though, but since it arises from Asato's abuse, it is a pretty dark fic.
--LJ Extras--
1. Chapter 4: The whipping scene from Kaname's point of view.
2. The Mistake: The original take on the lead-up to a non-con scene between Ichiou and Kaname. Read at your own risk! XD

Substitute: (complete) I'm an experimental kind of person, and I wanted to experiment with the Kain/Ruka pairing, hence this oneshot. It is inspired by events from the manga, but does a different take on them.

Midnight Ascending: (in progress) My attempt at a Kaname/Zero-only yaoi fic. I tend to be writing more for this fic at the moment than any of my others... sorry about that, but I go where the muses take me :D
