bios are so fun, right? idk man, i just like to read and write. usually i just cry a lot about clato and the careers in general.

i'm also a beta reader now; check out my profile if you'd like!


Check out the Tumblr for Young Justics: Renegades! If the link doesn't work, the blog name is spccdsters.


The key to figuring out what the heck my stories are:

Full-length, multi-chapter fics have capitalized titles and summaries.

Longer oneshots have lowercase titles and capitalized summaries.

Drabbles and short oneshots have lowercase titles and summaries.


My Tributes (because I'm a sucker for some SYOTs)

It's an ongoing list. I love my Career tributes, so there'll be lots of those guys.

Frostburn by river-melodies

Name: Bellona Clayton

Age: 18

District: 2

Overview: Dedicated Career under pressure. Everything to prove. Doubts herself sometimes, isn’t sure if this “killing for glory” thing is all it’s cracked up to be. Will do it anyway, because she’s lowkey kind of a coward.

Story Status: Reapings

Scorched by kealimepie

Name: Tiresias Slater

Age: 18

District: 2

Overview: Cocky bastard who’s good and knows it. Definite powerhouse. Nice eyes, sucky personality. Has a great shot at winning if he can keep his ego in check. King of Irony.

Status: Alive

Story Status: Reapings

Hiraeth by TheAmazingJAJ

Name: Ceres Hemlock

Age: 17

District: 10

Overview: Book-smart ambivert with more introverted tendencies. Very intelligent and very resourceful. Wise beyond her years, but maybe not quite as wise as she likes to think she is. Be careful, Ceres.

Status: Alive

Story Status: Prologue(s)

Sorry I Loved You by EmberLex

Name: Tetra Waller

Age: 17

District: 4

Overview: Rambunctious social butterfly who always looks on the bright side. Loves her family and is confident that she’ll win. Sometimes a bit oblivious, head in the clouds, but generally serious when she needs to be.

Status: Alive

Story Status: Reapings

Inferno by TheMayflyProject (1)

Name: Midas Princeton

Age: 18

District: 1

Overview: Confident, privileged son of victors who like to live vicariously through him. Talented Career, party animal, kind of a hot mess sometimes. Actually super sad and lonely, even if he doesn't know it. For the most part, a pretty lovable guy.

Status: Alive

Story Status: Character Introductions

Inferno by TheMayflyProject (2)

Name: Solara Boman

Age: 17

District: 5

Overview: Total genius who sometimes lets it get to her head. Friendly and perceptive. Comes from a huge, genius family. Probably banking too much on her intelligence to get her far, when she’ll probably need much more than that.

Status: Alive

Story Status: Character Introductions

Sheep Led to Slaughter by Paradigm of Writing

Name: Colt Sheppard

Age: 18

District: 12

Overview: Gentle giant and mama’s boy. Strong and silent, total softie and definitely wouldn’t hurt a fly unless it bit him first. Even then he’d still feel bad. Just wants to come home as soon as possible. Someone hug him, please.

Status: Alive

Story Status: Day Six

Fuck Love by swordfightingprincess reviews
Cato and Clove never wanted to fall for each other. The easiest thing to do? Pretend that their feelings don't exist. Unfortunately things don't always go their way especially during the 74th Hunger Games.

Hysteria by Bellicose Blue reviews
Victory isn't sweet, not to her. Victory tastes like dying screams and the light from long-dead stars and blood boiled in the sun until it's just a metallic residue in her mouth.

Behind Closed Doors by zuritamupaka reviews
He understood. She sees him on the same level as herself. He alone has the ability to pin her to the ground, to drag his sword across her shoulder blades just enough to tell her that he has won. She had never been bested by anyone other than him.

Scared by montreal-girl reviews
Death isn't something he's supposed to think about, but he does. District Two tributes shouldn't be thinking about dying, but he can't stop himself. And heaven forbid a strong, brutal Victor-to-be like himself starts thinking about sacrifice. But he does. And it's all her fault.

Young Justice: Renegades reviews
Sometimes evil deserves more than a simple beat-down or a trip to Belle Reve, at least in the eyes of some. This group of young individuals fights no holds barred, plays by nobody's rules but their own, acting more as vigilantes than anything else. Working under the radar of the Justice League, they take things into their own hands. Together, they are Renegades. SYOC closed.

rarely pure and never simple reviews
Travis, to his credit, looks confused as well, as if he can't believe those words just came out of his mouth. He blinks once, twice, frowns and cocks his head to one side. "Travis," she says slowly, eyeing him carefully. "What did you just say?" / A run-in with a goddess leaves Travis in a compromising situation, much to Connor's glee and to Katie's horror.

She isn't bloody and soldierly like the boy from 2. She doesn't have a lover like the pair from 12. She's just smart, plain and smart, but apparently nobody cares about that.
