Basic info: Rook, she/her

Current Writing Status: Emotionally exhausted and anxious college student who still hopes to find time to write.

Fandoms: My main fandom is most definitely Batman, and maybe just DC comics in general (sorry Marvel). Criminal Minds has also become a huge interest for me, as has Lord of the Rings. Very different, I know. I read LOTR for the first time when I was eleven but recently fell in love with Tolkien's world and characters all over again. I'm also a fan of Voltron Legendary Defender, Transformers Prime, TMNT and I used to be majorly obsessed with Ben 10. (See my name? Rook Blonko still rules!)

Batman: I have been a huge fan of Jason Todd ever since I watched the animated movie, Batman: Under the Red Hood. My obsession with all things Jason Todd was intensified after reading A Death in the Family, which I swear broke my heart.

Jason, and the moral dilemmas of the character, will never cease to fascinate me. Thus, a lot of my stories will have Jason as the focal point.

I also love the character of Barbara Gordon. I always thought she was incredibly strong... especially after the crap she went through in The Killing Joke. If ever I considered a fictional character worthy of naming my child after them, it would be Barbara Gordon. No, seriously.

That being said, I must confess that I am completely and utterly in love with the Babs/Dick pairing too. I will go down with this ship! ;)

I've been writing less and less Batman as of late, but a new story may still pop up from time to time.

Anime: After much persuasion from a dear friend of mine, I finally fell down the rabbit hole of anime.

Attack on Titan:

My favorite anime/manga series by far. It's probably one of my favorite pieces of writing anywhere. I'm a hardcore Armin Arlert fangirl and Armin/Annie shipper. I also love Eren, Annie, Historia and Hange.

I'm genuinely sick of watching this fanbase devolve into one shipping war after another. I don't care if you ship EH or EM. It's not hard to treat each other with decency and not resort to name-calling. There are a lot of decent people supporting both ships and I don't see why we can't just support each other.

Pairings:

Eren x Historia: canon has no bearing on my enjoyment of this ship. Thematically, they're the best AOT ship, I said what I said. That being said, I'm seeing a lot of hatred directed at Mikasa and Armin from the EH community, but none of that will be showing up in my work. I have loved the EMA dynamic since chapter one and two bombed chapters are not enough to destroy that for me.

Levi x Hange

Armin x Annie

Jean x Mikasa: on the one hand, I feel like Jean deserves better than the girl who keeps casting him aside 'cause she only has eyes for her brother figure, but I'm terribly fond of this ship regardless.

Levi x Petra: an entirely different dynamic from Levihan, but they're so cute.

Jean x Pieck: This pairing should be called Horse and Cart.

I'll see myself out.

Eren x Annie

Bleach:

I haven't finished this manga yet, but I'm definitely enjoying it. Rukia is my favorite character by far (though I love Ichigo too). I can't quite say I'm an Ichigo x Rukia fan (although I'm leaning in that direction.).

Not a fan of Ichigo x Orihime at all (yes, I'm aware they're canon.)

Tokyo Ghoul:

Definitely not a manga I ever saw myself enjoying, but it is definitely one of my favorites now. While I love characters like Kaneki, Touka and Hide (I love that soft boy so much!), the characters of Juuzou and Shinohara are the ones who have truly stolen my heart.

Pairings:

Not really into any of the pairings from this series except for maybe Kaneki x Touka. Maybe some Akira x Amon, though I'm not sure on that one yet.

Other than that, I don't see myself enjoying many of the possible romantic pairings.

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood:

First anime/manga series I ever fell in love with and was recommended to me by my amazing friend, Purplehood. Winry Rockbell is my favorite character by far.

Ed/Win is love. Ed/Win is life.

Honestly, though I love literally every characters and the pairings are so soft. I love them.

My Hero Academia:

Definitely a Bakugou fan here. His character development is So Good!

I'm not really into any of the potential canon pairings (especially not Izuocha, sorry guys). Although I've definitely been enjoying Kacchako- as completely non-canon as it is.

Other Accounts: I do have an account over on Archive of Our Own under the same name, where I have several additional drabbles in both the Fullmetal Alchemist and My Hero Academia fandoms, which have not been cross-posted over here, as well as some works in the Tokyo Ghoul, Bungou Stray Dogs and Assassination Classroom fandoms, which may or may not eventually be cross-posted over to here. I also have some works in the Shazam! fandom.

Anything M-rated will also be posted exclusively on ao3 for the time being. Currently, I have one M-rated fic posted over there (an Assassination Classroom, Nagisa-centric fic)

What I write: A lot of my stories tend to be focused on the familial relationships of my favorite characters, and most of my work will be for the Batman fandom (with Legends of Tomorrow here and there), though I’m slowly starting to branch out into the Criminal Minds fandom. I may even try my hand in the SeaQuest category. The genres I write vary, though I’m most at home writing angst and hurt/comfort. To me, that opens up the best opportunities for exploring the relationships and bonds between characters.

Here there be no smut, non-con or m-preg. So don't seek, for you won't find. If you would like to request a story from me or if you would like me to read one of your stories, please take this into account.

On another note, I despise character bashings. I don't read them- with very few exceptions. *coughs* Felicity Smoak *coughs* And I don't write them. If I don't like a character, I simply won't write them or, if I do, I'll make the attempt to do so in a way that respects that there are people who appreciate the characters even if I don't.
