Tried to live the life you sold me, no matter what the cost
Tried to walk the way you told me, but each time I got lost
The stairs didn’t lead me anywhere
I’m taking the fire escape up to the roof
Don’t care if it’s not the way you find the truth
And when I get up that high, I don’t know what I’ll find
But I’d rather look at the sky then wonder why I let you take my time

Updates:4/27/2013: IMPORTANT SCHEDULING NOTES.

So, I'm in my third year of law school and coming up on exams; furthermore, I'm getting ready for the bar. With that in mind, there will be some changes to the update schedule.

The next update for Invictus will be the weekend of MAY 25th. The next updates for Vaster Than Empires will be the weekend of MAY 4th and JUNE 1ST.

After that, I will be going on hiatus for my bar exam prep period, and for the test itself. This hiatus will end the weekend of AUGUST 10th. At that point, regular updates for both stories will resume.

I apologize for the disruption and hope you will bear with me. I am not abandoning these stories; this is a planned hiatus with a specific end-date, and I am going on it because I need to prioritize my real life over my fanfiction. Thank you all for your patience during this time.

3/9/2013 - What up, yo? So, here's how this is going to work: I am going to alternate chapters on Invictus and Vaster Than Empires, updating first one and then the other. I'm going to be really strict about that, because I don't want to do the thing where I neglect one in favor of the other because oh those flighty muses. That's not fair to you guys.

I'm going to try very hard to have a chapter up every week, so that each story will be updated every other week. However, that will probably not always be possible, both because of my own schedule and my beta's, so don't hold me to that. But I swear on my pride as a writer that I will finish these stories, however long it takes.

In less serious news, THEDAH MADE ME FANARTS. Links have their own section below. Everyone should make me fanarts, they make me way happy. :D :D :D

2/20/2013 - Okay! The two AUs are up. I know people are reading them, let's see some reviews.

2/9/2013 - Well, that got written quickly. Two new stories on the burner, let's see if we can keep this momentum going. Remember: I am a writing-machine, and you put feedback coins in me until a new chapter pops out. Feed me, Seymour.

1/4/2013 - Hi. I'm back. Let's see how long it lasts. New fandom, too. Well, old fandom, but first time writing fic for it. Just read the damn thing, okay?


Works in Progress

Invictus - Heavily, heavily AU. Alternate Universe. In the eleventh year of the Meiji, 1878, Japan still practices chattel slavery.

And Kaoru Kamiya finds an abandoned slave hiding under the docks as she's walking home...

Yes, it's slavefic. Yes, I have no shame. Yes, it's all Alina's fault. Please don't hate me.

Vaster Than Empires - AU. The Western Army is defeated; the country stands, uneasy, under the hand of the Tokugawa. Kaoru Kamiya, whose family was on the losing side, has been sold into marriage for the sake of peace. Her new husband is a legend, a demon bound in human form, marked by his blood-lust and his bright red hair...

Nothing. Glorious, glorious nothingness.

AU. Early summer, 1601. The Western Army is defeated; the country stands, uneasy, under the hand of the Tokugawa.

Her new husband is a legend, a demon bound in human form, marked by his blood-lust and his bright red hair. However, legends have a way of being not exactly... true.

It isn't vandalism, it's closure. Short, experimental, hopefully packs a punch. VinTi flavored, but then again I wrote it so that should be obvious?
