Hey all. A bit busy with school right now, but I'll be updating when I can. If you want further updates on my stories, rather than sending me a PM, as I might miss it, please check out the following links for a better discourse...

Here's the link to my Discord server. I share it with The Prophesied: h t t p s : / / d i s c o r d . g g / y y N R d s B

Here's the link to Manke's discord, where I'm fairly active: discord. gg /4xTFdeQsFv

Remember, take out ALL the spaces (very important). Sorry for the trouble, but you know fanfiction doesn't allow clickable links at times. I know some people have no issues, but I don't want to risk it. See you there!

And yes, before you ask, TFOAC is still being updated. It's on the way, don't worry.

For broad strokes purposes, here is my current docket of stories which I am currently updating:

The Flip of A Coin (TFOAC): My PJO long-fic. A retelling of sorts, with a more mature take on the world of Greek mythology. Features a grittier, stronger, and smarter Percy. Quasi-Gamer system. Multiple pairings throughout the story (i.e. the MC dates a lot of different women before settling on his final pairing).

The Lord of Time (TLO): Another PJO fic, though this one is closer to the source material. Still a more mature take, though a lot of the maturity comes from the crown jewel of the story, my Percy/Calypso pairing, rather than the overall world itself. Check it out.

Cyanide: My take on a Naruto story. A retelling of the classic HP fanfiction, the Lie I've Lived, in the Narutoverse. MC is Naruto, but a Naruto reeling from having his father's memories dumped in his head. Stronger and smarter Naruto.

Storms and Monsters: A PJO/ATLA crossover where Percy, after blowing up Mt. St. Helens, finds himself in the Bending world with a vague idea of how to get home: help the Avatar defeat the Fire Lord and get the Spirit World back in balance. Percy/Katara.

Meleager's Folly: A smarter Harry gets the mentor he so desperately needed, and a stage to show his talent. Think you've read this story? Think again.

Odyssey: Harry shouldn't have followed Sirius into the Veil, but he did. Now he has to deal with alternate realities, eldritch beings who enjoy taunting him, and memories he's never lived before.

Thanks for reading.

A Spire to the Stars by DarknessEnthroned reviews
Summaries give the game away! Have a prophecy instead... "You will chase fate to the place you once loved most, with Agamemnon's penance and Hades's boast. Grief waits for two as they flee the hate of old bones and a hero will die, forsworn amongst thrones. Lost girl from the garden will be followed by three, one you saved, one you helped, and one she'll set free."

Emily by DarknessEnthroned reviews
Perhaps the very best of all my short pieces so far. Written for someone who very generously supports my writing endeavors as my take upon a rarer pairing. After the dust of the war has settled and everyone begins to move on to pursue their long held life goals, Harry, who has only dreamt of family, feels left behind. Slow-burn for a few short scenes and then deliciously dark...

Artisan's Amour by gamer0890 reviews
AU. Fleur Delacour, owner of Delacour and Family, was quite content with life in her small shop. Harry Potter, Quidditch star, simply needed assistance. Neither could have guessed their first meeting would be the start of something more than a business transaction.

Fūinjutsu is incredibly tricky. For each stroke of a pen, there are a million different things that could go wrong. And Minato?
