Author has written 4 stories for Mass Effect, and Red vs. Blue.

Ok, so here's all you really need to know about me:

Name: [deleted from records]

Gamertag: Daedalus30185

Age: too old for how sore I am

School: SOU dropout

Sex: like anyone would say "no"?

Likes: Mass Effect (if you couldn't tell from my faves list), Ace Combat (all save for AH and 6), anime, sci-fi, long story short, I'm a geek and I am proud to admit it with a long list of games and shows too numerous too mention yet too important to ignore.

Dislikes: Stupid people, Valentine's day, politics, JJ Abrams films

So there you are. Pretty much everything you need to know about me.

I've only got one story rolling around in my head, and it's a big one (three volumes big), down to epilogues and prologues.

So have a good day, morning, night, week, month, year, etc. and hope you don't find my work too dull.

Also, this invitation is a 24/7 open invitation to those who's fan fics I have read extensively (you know who you are), feel free to bounce ideas off of me. I don't mind it. Just note that I may not always be able to get back to you right away but I will try my best.

Jul 7 (2018) Well with my last update being almost a year ago and only a few paragraphs being my only progress since then, I'm calling it. My writing itself I think may have improved a bit but the ideas aren't coming to me like the used to.

Dec 17 Ben a while since I made any updates, huh? Sorry about that. I've been trying to keep my head above water financially, but having no work experience and no college or university education degrees makes me viable for only one type of work: "unskilled labor". Been hard to find stuff that I can do without feeling like I'm banging my head against a wall. But that's not the reason I'm posting this. Jar Jar Abrams. He screwed up bad. I went into Force Awakens trying to keep my expectations low so I wouldn't be disappointed like I was with Revenge of the Sith. Still walked away feeling robbed. It's just a waste of time and money. As such, I am henceforth boycotting all movie series remakes that Jar Jar Abrams is involved in and I was so very looking forward to seeing Star Trek Beyond despite the last two films (which were good, don't get me wrong, but barely had any semblance of the values that Star Trek had).

Aug 26 So I quit UPS. Just couldn't quite keep up. Not too worried though, I start working at a local produce shipping company next Tuesday, the day after my birthday. So happy birthday to me, I got myself a new job! :) Hope summer went by well for everyone else and a good school year (for those of you who are still academically focused).

Jun 8 Started working nights at UPS recently (11pm to ~3:30am) and I'm sore after work so I don't do much writing then, and it feels weird for me to be writing when I get up cause I don't do anything in the morning (it's afternoon, but as far as my body is concerned, it's morning). As a result, I've really only been writing during the weekends. As such, I won't be able to update all that frequently. Thousand apologies to those who are still following me. I know I promised more chapters but real life must come first.

May 13 Well, it's been a long month for me, but I'm back, though I'm still trying to find a balance between fun (writing) and work.
