Author has written 5 stories for Harry Potter, and Avengers.

Thank you for checking out my profile! I originally started writing fanfiction back in the early 2000s and reconnected with it twenty years later at the start of the pandemic - March of 2020.I love writing long plot based stories with a lot of character development and twists and turns along their way.

I currently write in the Harry Potter fandom, focusing on a non-biological, paternal relationship between Snape and Harry, with Snape acting as either a guardian or step-father. I love writing and reading angst, and my professional background is in medical/biology, so most of my stories have an angst (hurt/comfort), medical flair to them.

Here's a quick list of the stories I have:

The Choices We Made: Complete. A guardian Snape fic where an AU version of him travels into the canon universe at the end of Harry's fifth year. This is very plot heavy and takes them on a winding journey to find support and love all while protecting the Wizarding World from Voldemort. This features a background (but significant) Draco/Hermione relationship and a redeemed Dudley. It's the definition of an angst, hurt/comfort all the way up to the very end.

Finding Common Ground: Abandoned. An AU where James joined Voldemort to protect Harry from the prophecy. He gets killed in action, Voldemort wins, and Snape eventually becomes Harry's step-father. The story starts at the end of Harry's fifth year and focuses on the dystopian world under Voldemort's ruling. I don't know if I'll ever come back to this one because while I have great plotting for it, the world building was a bit more than I could comfortably write. If anyone is looking to adopt a wildly AU fic like this, I'd be willing to discuss putting it up for adoption.

Smoke Mirrors: Work in Progress. Sequel to Choices that begins by exploring the emotional aftermath of Choices while building in the latest threat to Snape and Harry. There's a romantic flair to it, reminiscent of the Half-Blood Prince. You can expect a lot of plots, some red-herrings and distractions, character development, and angst galore.

The Forgotten Prophecy: Work in Progress. A new AU I have posted on PS because it's not ready for mainstream FFN or AO3. A bit of an indulgent story for me, with some OOC based on the current AU situation. In it, the canon Snape was summoned at his moment of death to an AU where Lily and James are still alive to help them against a threat greater than Voldemort. There's good Malfoys, step-father Snape, and a feisty little sister for Harry.
