So hey, if you're reading this, maybe you came to my profile because it's been X amount of time since I updated a story, and you're scared my account is dead.

Lemme tell ya. It's not. I just take a REAAAALLLY long time to update, and I've got 3 stories right now, so I try to cycle em.

Take today, for instance. It's February 5th, 2022 as I'm sitting here.

Trust me, if I realize I won't "finish" a story, I'm gonna do my best to wrap it up in a chapter, or send a message out and delete the fic.

But that's never happened before so we're good. Just be patient with me. And drop me a review or even a message! If I feel like someone cares about my work it honestly does motivate me to go get some stuff done. When I don't get reviews, I assume the people reading my story were unimpressed. And if you really show interest, I'll talk to you a bunch about the story!

But it's been so long since updates because I had to basically finish growing up. I had to finish college, start working, become independent. And as passionate as I am about writing, I had to put serious stuff first. Could I have tried harder to write more? Maybe. But life's hard. Recently found out I suffer from a form of depression. My gas tank's pretty empty most of the time, so I just have to do my best with the spoons I've got each day.

I once joked with a friend that I wouldn't finish UD until I was 30 and uh... well now that looks like it won't be a joke anymore. Damn. What can ya do?

Oh yeah, and some stuff about me. I'm 28 and I'm a counselor! I can't say much about my job to protect the privacy of my clients, but I like my job. Sort of. Kind of? Not gonna lie I am super burnt out. That's what makes it hard to update fics, really. It's been 5 years since I officially updated any of my fics (although I did a few oneshots during the pandemic, and I've got some updates in drafts).

I'm short, brunette, and I love video games! I'm your stereotypical nerd, I like anime, JRPGs, Marvel's kinda iffy rn bc I was reeeeeallly attached to the whole IronDad deal and honestly Endgame has crushed me and I'm just... just not over that. There's a couple of things I'm not over at this point. I don't know if that's just me or... probably not making sense here. Whatever. Anyways.

If you're curious about anything about my stories, message me. And if you don't wanna talk face to face you can always leave an anonymous review for one of my fics and I'll address it in the next update!

Possible Upcoming Projects: (Subject to change at any time, PM me for details because I like to talk)

1.Becoming Human: When Link's shadow fails at the one thing he was made to do, he collapses at the bed of Lake Hylia and waits for the elements to claim him. Too bad the pushy girl working at Lon Lon Ranch wants extra help around the farm and won't take no for an answer. (DarkLink/Malon)

2. Adult Supervision: An AU of Majora's Mask where Link decides that if he's going to fight a psychopathic, undead perma-child for a stolen, demon-god chaos mask, he's not doing it without a little help-- namely from the jerk that insists he do the dirty work in the first place. Shenanigans ensue.

3. Unprecedented Prosperity: What if Van had realized that the newly created replica was capable of producing a hyperresonance? In a world where Asch never became Asch, and Luke never became Luke, Van's ultimate plan is only slightly changed. However, the lives of two red-haired scions are forever altered. The fate of the world hangs precariously somewhere between them.

4. The Light of Salvation: My mission is of the highest and most noble of degrees-- to offer the Chosen One as a vessel for the Goddess Martel. With this completed, the world shall be restored, and the glorious age of half-elves will begin! I must not fail; I must not forsake this holy duty. It is the will of the Goddess. It is the fate of the world, and the divine right of the half-elven race to be given dominion over those inferior beings. Or rather, that is what I always believed... until now. (AU)

Back Burner: (Will they happen? Probably not! Do I have the strength to delete the prompts? Nope!)

5.Cinderella Complex: For the crime of aiding a human girl in the Spirit World, as well as for letting her escape, The Spirit Council is on the hunt for Haku. With the help of Zeniba and a dangerous, one-time spell, Haku is able to escape to the human world. But there's one condition: Haku has exactly one year to find Chihiro and make her remember her adventures. If he fails, he will be sent back the the Spirit World forever, and back into the clutches of the Spirit Council. Can Haku spark Chihiro's memory before the clock strikes midnight? (warning: character death.)

6. Upside Down: Bloopers, Outtakes, and Deleted Scenes!: Basically, an amalgamation of alternate versions of certain chapters, parodies of the story itself, or one-shot ideas that either occur to me after UD's completion or don't fit in with the story/timeline. Plenty of them will lean more towards humor or mindless fluff, no chronological order. Suggestions and requests welcome!

Time passes, people move
Like a river's flow, it never ends
A childish mind will turn to noble ambition
Young love will become deep affection
The clear water's surface reflects growth
Now listen to the Serenade of Water to reflect upon yourself...
