Have you heard? Heard the silence that fills empty rooms, the ringing in your ears that crawls into your chest, sends you hiding under the blankets from a monster that isn't there?

I glued it all together myself! Full-sized version here: http://sara-darkotter.deviantart.com/art/A-Most-Sirius-Desktop-319394136


This is Sara. She's written for a small variety of fandoms, but now focuses on Harry Potter, where she's found lots of room to play, experiment, and otherwise, and rather enjoys it. She mostly writes things concerning the post-Hogwarts era, and especially enjoys writing things with their children. She likes writing about the Malfoy and Black families and playing with them, so expect plenty of those dolls.

She uses OCs. Feel free to critique them and point out if they have problems or are developing unrealistic characteristics.

She has done NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) twice. The first one resulted in the small number of Dresden Files stories below, and the second is an actual original story. Once she has rewritten it, she may ask around for someone to give opinions. Keep an eye out here!

Slytherin, and proud. Pisces. Aged into the teen years.

She's also getting a bit tired of using third-person to refer to herself.

When writing, whenever I try to write something that isn't meant to have a gajillion pieces of plot with lots of just stuff in character's heads or romance-focus, my brain giggles and suddenly makes it a war-plot, or something similar. I need to fix that.

I have a fanfiction wife. I love her :D


Tumblr:

I do have a tumblr!Feel free to follow, I haven't gotten into a habit of talking about my fanfictions, but I might, and occasionally I ask for help or post clips of stuff I've written.


Character Analysis:

I get bored and write these on occasion, or get mad and write these on occasion, or sit down and write these on occasion. They all get published on Tumblr. They aren't likely to make as much sense as they should.

Draco and Ron


I am a member, and a mod, of a fanfiction roleplay. It is currently closed to new members. Seeing as I have to keep track of the timeline and (main) plot, there's good reason. If you want to follow along, though, the story Veiled Skies is heavily based on it.


Pairings/Threesomes/Triangles:


I write/read these:
Draco/Hermione (OTP), Theodore Nott/Luna (OTP), Scorpius/Lily Luna (OTP), Scorpius/Astrid Nott (OC), Scorpius/Astrid/Lily Luna, Lorcan/Every Human Female, Lysander/Every Human Male, Teddy/Victoire, Teddy/Dominique, Teddy/Bella Black(OC)/Damon Ash(OC), Ron/Pansy, Ron/Hermione (have to write it really well though), Sirius/Katherine Nott (OC), Hugo/Lucy, Draco/Astoria, Bellatrix/Voldemort, Black Family Incest, Most Any Character/Luna

Things I just can't, or haven't found anything that convinced me yet: Rose/Scorpius (I read one when I first walked into NextGen. Somehow I thought Rose was Harry's kid. Enough said), Fred/George, Weasley Brothers Incest, Weasley Brother/Ginny, Wormtail/Anyone (There had better be a damn good redemption story to convince me), Anyone-But-Bellatrix/Voldemort, Snape/Lily (Requited only. Unrequited is okay)


Disclaimer/Warning:

I will try my best to put warnings in the author's notes for the triggered or squicked, but the following, or discussion about them may appear in my stories without notice (List non-exhaustive): Depression, suicide, cousincest, incest, parental incest, threesomes, homophobia (Which I do not condone. EVER), death and in-depth discussions of, violence, religions, bashing of religions, slash and femmeslash (If you have a problem with those two, better have a damn good reason), foul language, sexism (DO NOT CONDONE), rape (DO NOT CONDONE) (Will be backstory or off-screen ONLY), sexual abuse, child abuse.


On Head Canon:

I have a variety, unfortunately, most of my stories have their own. I don't know how I manage it, I just do. (Also, lots of notes.)

Once again, I do use OCs.Most will be confined to background or side roles, but some may become main characters alongside canon characters. Fair warning.


Awards:

On The Other Side of the Mirror- First Place, Triathlon, 2012 Hogwarts Games


Off-Site Fanfiction:

I only have one. It's a tumblr, and it's being done there because fanfiction doesn't let you insert photos into chapters.

Sincerely, Scorpius: A journal of truths, letters of lies, and still photographs saying nothing at all.

It's an alternative universe Harry Potter story, in which Voldemort won the Battle of Hogwarts. (Yes, I know, there are a million of those) Scorpius is the main character. It's my experiment in both writing journal-format and doing an in-character tumblr. Anonymous Asks is on, so feel free to send things to either Scorpius or I to respond to.


You are hearing the screams of the Guardians, and the roar of the Darkness, and one day it will take you too.

Beware the ringing, child. When you cannot hear the bells, they're tolling for you...
