I am of the opinion that although Fanfiction writing is usually a learning process, it still should be taken seriously. Therefore, I do give constructive criticism if I feel like you need it. I apologize if I ever seem overly harsh in a review, but realize I'm just legitimately trying to make your writing better. I am willing to be a Beta if I have the time.

However, I think people need to know this: I do not consider myself to be an expert on the English Language. At all. My academic expertise are actually Math, Science, and Engineering. I got into writing fanfiction because I have so many story ideas in my head that I want to share, and writing is the best (and easiest) medium for me to work with. I don't pretend to know everything, but I am a native English speaker and very well-read, so I can usually spot major problems. Don't be afraid to correct me if you see that I did something wrong, this is a learning process for me too.

In-progress stories

Avengers:

The Next Avengers: A next-generation Avengers Story. On indefinite hiatus since I lack the motivation and have writers' block.

Bleach:

The New Adventures of the Karakura Superheroes: Continuing from where I think he Manga is going. Focuses on Karin and Yuzu and how they deal with their brother becoming a permanent Soul Reaper in the Soul Society. On indefinite hiatus, may even decide to start over.

Karin, Just Karin: Alternate continuation of where I think the Manga is going. Karin wakes up in the Soul Society with little to no memories of her past life. She decides to join the Soul Reapers while she is putting the pieces of her past back together. On hiatus due to lack of motivation and time.

Fullmetal Alchemist:

Invasion of our Homeland: 20 years post-cannon. Maes Mustang decides to go to Xing for help during a Drachman invasion. There he meets not only Ling, Lan Fan, and their son Fu, but also the Elric and Chang families. All of them pitch in to help get rid of Drachma. On hiatus due to lack of motivation and time

Code Geass:

The Demon Prince: Parallel to Cannon mostly. Japan managed to push back Britania's invasion with the continued support of their Prime Minister. As the soldiers left, Kallen and her brother Naoto were brought back to their father, and Suzaku convinced Lelouch and Nunnaly to go with them and rejoin the royal family. Years later, Japan decides to send Suzaku to Britania in the hope of achieving peace, where he reunites with his old friends and discovers what they have been doing this whole time: forming a secret agency dedicated to weeding out and punishing criminals the regular police can't or won't go after. Focuses on the politics of Britania, with a few relationships thrown in. On indefinite hiatus due to lack of motivation and time.

Avatar the Last Airbender:

Zuko of the Fire Nation: See description for summary. I swear I am going to get back to it, my life is just really against me writing right now.

Future Stories (since I have to many plot ideas and not enough time to write, there are a few I am willing to put up for adoption. Check the notes on weather on not I am willing to part with it, and PM me if you are interested in any of them)

Bleach:

Karin series: Several stories continuing where "Karin, Just Karin" leaves off. Second book in series deals with Suzaku's back-story, and other plot ideas include what happened to Yuzu, some old enemies gaining power, and Karin's friends from the world of the living. Since it deals with a story I am in the process of writing, I don't plan on giving it up.

Karakura Superheroes seasons 2 and 3: Continues "The New Adventures of the Karakura Superheroes." Because I am in the process of writing the first season, I don't plan on giving it up. Unless you ask nicely.

The Hollow Child: Post-Manga (by about 20 years). The Soul Society is surprised when a boy appears out of a Garganta, a boy who appears human, but seems to have Hollow and Soul Reaper powers. When Ichigo agrees to train the boy, it is revealed that he is the son of the King of Hueco Mundo and is running from those who wish to take his father's throne. But there may be even more things that make the boy special, things that can only be revealed in the World of the Living... Contains HitsuKarin (do I write anything else?) and UlquiHime (at lest implied) as well as some other possible pairings. Willing to give up.

Attack on the Soul Society (working title): Kind of a "what if" cannon divergent. When Byakuya and Renji go to arrest Rukia in the World of the Living, they decide to bring Ichigo to the Soul Society as a material witness. A few years later, Ichigo has become a valued member of squad eleven, despite the fact that he is still essentially a prisoner in the Soul Society. He has befriended many of the officers, with the exception of squad 6 (who can't forgive him for being the reason why Rukia was sentenced to life in prison), and the squad 5 Captain (whose unusual interest in him puts Ichigo on edge.) Suddenly, the seireitei is thrown into chaos with a Ryoka attack. While everyone else is scrambling to understand how and why this happened, especially when Aizen is mysteriously murdered, squad 10 Captain Toshiro Hitsugaya becomes obsessed with this Ryoka girl with Soul Reaper powers and black hair who claims that all she wants is her brother back. HitsuKarin. Putting up for adoption.

Arranged Marriage: Weird AU that I will likely change and turn into an original work. Karin and her family are captured by an elite group of Demons known as the Arrancar, and in order to protect her family she allows them to arrange a marriage with one of the immortal warrior priests at war with the demons. Her husband, the youngest warrior priest Toshiro Hitsugaya, seems to be honorable man, but will she really be happy with him? And why does she think the Demons aren't done with her yet? Willing to put of for adoption.

The Lost Princesses: Anastasia crossover/AU (I came up with the idea when I rewatched that movie and realized one of the plot elements I am using in another fanfic bore some resemblance to that story). Many years ago, the Royal Shiba family was destroyed by the evil magician Aizen; only the eldest son, Prince Ichigo, survived and found shelter with the Royal Kuchiki family. However, there are some rumors that his younger sisters, Karin and Yuzu, are still alive. Toshiro, a former page boy in the Shiba Royal Court, and Rangiku, and former lady-in-waiting for the Royal family (and fiance of Duke Gin), meet two girls you look a lot like the princesses. They decide to bring them to Prince Ichigo to collect a reward, much to the dismay of Toshiro's sister Momo. However, the journey won't be easy, especially with Aizen's minions trying to kill them. Willing to put up for adoption.

Fullmetal Alchemist:

The Golden Alchemist of the West: Al's adventures in the East. Lots of Almei fluff, but not entirely about their love story. Ties into the idea that Ed and Al's father was the one who brought Alkahestry the the Xing. Companion fic to "The Golden Philosopher of Amestris." Don't plan on giving up this story.

The Golden Philosopher of Amestris: Ed's adventures in the West. Has him thinking about Edwin, but not much action since she isn't there for most of the story. Contains situations that tie into "Invasion of our Homeland" and another unnamed sequel, but in isn't a big part of this story. Most of the plot in driven by two (or one, I don't know exactly how many there will be) kids who travel with Ed to learn Alchemy. Companion fic to "The Golden Alchemist of the West." Don't plan on giving up this story.

Unnamed sequel to "The Golden Philosopher of Amestris": Runs in a time period parallel to "Invasion of our homeland." Ed has been missing in the West for a long time, and his daughter Nina finally decides to do something about it. Maes Mustang decides to help her after she agrees to get him into her dad's school and teach him whatever his needs to learn about Alchemy and Alkahestry to convince his father he's ready for the secrets of Flame Alchemy. Don't plan on giving up this story.

Survivors of Xerxes: Post-cannon, but I'm not sure how much into the future. Ed and Al are researching the Xerxes ruins when they accidentally activate an array that transports them to a pocket dimension. There they find citizens of Xerxes, frozen in time to escape the nationwide transmutation circle that had destroyed the rest of their fellow countrymen. The brothers find out that the person who created this pocket dimension was the same man who created Homunculus, and things get dicey. Or I could have another version set during the cannon years with their father included. Putting up for adoption.

Unraveling Secrets of the Past: A young historian at Elric University realizes that there might be a connection between his favorite Xingese fairy tale and the Mustang-Armstrong Rebellion. He discovers that the rebellion was also referred to as "The Promised Day," and the fairy tale, The Quest for a Thousand Souls, was part of a Literary movement that accompanied the rise of the Dawn Emperor. In his search for the truth, he meets a young Xingese girl nicknamed "the golden Chang," who seems to know more about the story than she is telling him. Might have a sequel/alternate ending that deals with Ling's descendant forced into exile in Amestris when Xing overthrows the Monarchy. Willing to put up for adoption.

Fairy Tail:

Fairy Tail, the Next Generation: Post-Cannon, Next-Generation. Natsu and Lissanna's son has take-over magic called "Dragon Soul." Gray and Juvia's son has power over both water and ice, but his default is ice. Lucy and Leo's daughter is capable of traveling between the spirit world and the real world by her own power, and is also able to summon any spirit she has a contract with whether on not she is in possession of a key, but she has been charged with the protection of the Celestial Princess. Ghillie is the daughter of Erza and Jellal, and is capable of her mother's magic, but wishes only to find her father again. Timothy is a mysterious boy who was forced to run away from home after the Shadow of Zeref possessed him and learned magic from the illegal, independent guild Crime Sorcerer. These are their adventures. (On second thought, I think if I do write this down I'll focus on Ghillie and Timothy since they're the only ones I really think about.) Putting up for adoption

The Curse of Two Guilds: Several centuries in the future. A young girl who uses the rare magic "the Knight" joins the Fairy Tail guild in the hope of putting her family's difficult history with the law behind her. A few years later, she starts experiencing random blackouts accompanied by her magic energy draining, and after it almost causes her to die on a job she decides to investigate the cause. Mavis's spirit decides to help her, but with nothing to go on except for visions of dark guilds being destroyed, how can they hope to figure this out before the curse kills her? And what does the dark guild Crime Sorcerer have to do with this? And how does her cousin supposedly in prison for something he didn't do have to do with anything? Putting up for adoption.

Mystogan, the Opera Ghost: Phantom of the Opera AU. Erza is Christeen, Jellal is Phantom, Ultear is Madam Giry and Meredy is Meg. I'm toying between making Simon, Siegrain, and Gray Roul. Putting up for adoption.

Code Geass:

Code Geass, Naoto of the Revenge: Cannon divergence from the last few episodes. When Lelouch took over Britannia he tried to make it a better place, but Schneizel ruined it by taking the throne and killing Lelouch. 7 years later, Naoto, Yuki, and Rolo, the hidden children of Lelouch and Kallen, plot to avenge their father and sister (Yuki's twin named Nunnaly) with the help of a mysterious witch they recognize from their father's court, who possesses not only the ability to give a mysterious power but also the original mask of Zero. Not sure I want to give up, but I might.

Son of a Demon: Post-Cannon. Naoto Kouzuki's world is turned upside down when his mother tells him who his father is: the Demon Emperor. However, he quickly realizes he can't wallow in self-loathing forever when his Mom is captured by a mysterious being only interested in destruction. His only hope is the power and mask a strange warlock gave him, but with the witch going on and on about a contract, could their be a price to pay? Not sure I want to give up.

For Our Leader Zero (working title): Cannon divergence somewhere around episodes 20 and 21. A failed mission with the Black Knights results in Zero being captured by Britannia, but not before both Suzaku and Kallen see the face behind the mask. As the Britannians struggle to deal with the truth and have to decide whether to execute Zero or send him to the homeland for judgement, Kallen and the Black Knights race to protect the leader's little sister and unravel the secrets of the man behind the mask. Putting up for adoption.

Notes from the Royal Children's Psychologist: Potentially a side-fic to The Demon Prince, but could go a different way. After Lelouch and Nunnaly are brought back to the Royal Family after the invasion of Japan, Schneizel realizes that they are suffering from PTSD and finds a Child's Phychologist to treat them. This story is a collection of notes, journal entries, and memories from that Doctor as he tries to help the suffering Prince and Princess, and unknowingly unravels some the darkest parts of the Royal Family. Putting up for adoption.

The War of Three Immortals: Several centuries post-cannon. Inspired and loosely modeled on an alternate ending I saw on youtube, but will actually tie in with the Cannon ending. Over the centuries, the Demon Emperor has become little more than a horror story from what is considered to be the darkest part of the Word's history. Zero, who is believed to be immortal, is an influential member of the Royal Court an usually serves as a primary adviser to the reigning Emperor or Emperess. After years of peace, a mysterious man with a supernatural power appears and shatters the world's peace, forcing the the current Crown princess to open a sealed cave containing a masked man called LL. A young boy at court, who is in love with the princess, forms a contract with LL to gain power, but will it be enough? Not to mention, why is Zero so worried about LL's power, what is LL's connection to the world, and where did the enemy get his power? Does it have something to do with the green-haired woman occasionally appears to aid the empire's troops, or is it the stolen antiquated research titled "Code R" and it's research subject, codename KK? Putting up for adoption.

The Lost Children of Area Eleven: Really weird Cannon divergence. During the Invasion of Japan, a strange cult of scientist tied to the Geass Order set up shop in a small island off the coast of Japan, using kids they find in Japan and kidnap from Britannia as test subjects. A few months later, those test subjects rebel against the scientists, led by "subject Zero." But they don't stop there, and Britannia and Japan are forced to work together to deal with this issue, though both Schneizel and Todoh wish that they could save the children somehow. Willing to give up.

Tokyo Ghoul:

Prisoner: What if the CCG attacked Aogiri Tree a little earlier?

The one that was called Kirito is married to Asuna, their two kids have no idea their parents were at one point trapped in a death game. The children are fans of the TV show "Aincrad" (which is based on the world of SAO and the people who were trapped there for 2 years) and are avid gamers, despite their father's warnings to stay away from VRMMORPG. After much searching through the VRMMORPG network, the kids find the world of SAO and decide to start playing it, only to be trapped in the game when someone trips Akihiko Kayaba's original program.

Avatar the Last Airbender:

Zuko of the Nations collection: A series of stories with the preface "When Azulon ordered Ozai to kill Zuko, instead of what happened in canon Zuko whent to live in the X nation." They're inspired by the "maybe an earth kingdom family will adopt you" line and took on a life of their own. "Zuko of the Fire Nation" is the first of these. Other nations include Northern Water Tribe, Earth Kingdom with that family from Zuko Alone, Jet and his gang, and the air temples.

Little Dragon: Exists several years after the end of the series, but not Korra-compliant. I came up with the idea before I got into Korra. Basically there ends up being a revolution in the fire Nation and Zuko was imprisoned by the revolutionaries, but Mai and her children escape and live with Iroh in Ba Sing Se hidden among the other Fire Nation refugees.

My eyes are swollen

I cannot see,

I must be bad,

What else could have made

My daddy so mad?

I wish I were better

I wish I weren’t ugly,

Then maybe my mommy

Would still want to hug me.

I can’t do a wrong

I can’t speak at all

Or else I'm locked up

All day long.

When I'm awake I'm all alone

The house is dark

My folks aren’t home

When my mommy does come home

I'll try and be nice,

So maybe ill just get

One whipping tonight.

I just heard a car

My daddy is back

From Charlie’s bar.

I hear him curse

My name is called

I press myself

Against the wall

I try to hide

From his evil eyes

I’m so afraid now

I’m starting to cry

He finds me weeping

Calls me ugly words,

He says its my fault"

He suffers at work.

He slaps and hits me

And yells at me more,

I finally get free

And run to the door

He’s already locked it

And i start to bawl,

He takes me and throws me

Against the hard wall

I fall to the floor

With my bones nearly broken,

And my daddy continues

With more bad words spoken,

"I’m sorry!", I scream

But its now much to late

His face has been twisted

Into a unimaginable shape

The hurt and the pain

Again and again

O please God, have mercy!

O please let it end!

And he finally stops

And heads for the door

While i lay there motionless

Brawled on the floor

My name is Tiffany

I am three,

Tonight my daddy

Murdered me

And you can help

Sickens me top the soul,

And if you read this

and don’t pass it on

I pray for your forgiveness

Because you would have to be

One heartless person

To not be effected

By this Poem

And because you are effected,

Do something about it!

So all i ask you to do Is pass this on!

But I am also the girl who knows and is proud to be who she is, doesn't care if people call her weird (it's a compliment), who loves reading and writing and doing the things that no one seems to have the time to do any more, who loves and is obsessed with FanFiction, who can express herself beter with words than anything else, and knows the importance of the little things.

Copy and Paste this onto your account if you are anything like me, so the girls who are different and unique can know in their weakest times that they are unique, but not alone

Today, we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape.

He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: Knowing when to come in out of the rain; why the early bird gets the worm; Life isn't always fair; and maybe it was my fault.

Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge). His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6 year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate, teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch, and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student only worsened his condition.

Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer Calpol, sun lotion, or a band-aid to a student, but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.

Common Sense lost the will to live as the Ten Commandments became contraband, places of worship became places of business, and criminals received better treatment than their victims.

Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home without having to worry about the burglar sueing you for assault.

Common Sense finally gave up the will to live after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded $3,000,000 when she sued the McDonalds that had given her the coffee.

Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust; his wife, Discretion; his daughter, Responsibility; and his son, Reason.

He is survived by his 3 stepbrothers; I Know My Rights, Someone Else Is To Blame, and I'm A Victim. Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing.
