Author has written 7 stories for Final Fantasy VII, and Devil May Cry.

Hello denizens of the internet, I'm a university graduate who's trying to fend off an approximately quarter-life crisis. I'm interested in many different genres and have many favorite fandoms that include manga, anime, comicbooks, books, and now games. Some of my top favorite ones are Fullmetal Alchemist, FFVII, Bleach, and Devil May Cry, but the list keeps going on and on and on.

Whenever I manage to get drabbles and short stories to a presentable stage, I'll post them here. How often I will post is dependent on whether I have an idea, and if life will let me work on it.

I also have a tumblr page where I post random status updates for anything I'm trying to write, as well as my stories. (They're sometimes a slightly rougher version than what I post here.) My tumblr is simply: areadingheart.tumblr.com


As you can tell, the two main fandoms I write for are FFVII and DmC. My FFVII stories are one-shots that can stand alone, but they also could be read in chronological order using the in-game years in the titles.

So far, my three DmC (reboot) stories are one-shots from each character's point of view postgame that form a sort of trilogy I'm calling Aftermath. They could be read in any order, though it might make a little more sense if you start with Days and Nights (Kat's story) because it explains what has been happening in the city and world more than the other two, which are What I'd Like to Say (Dante) and What's Been Found is Lost (Vergil).

May 9, 2016:

Life has still been kicking my tail and all I currently have are a ton of incomplete story fragments, but I'm getting to a point where I'll be able to start writing again. Thank you to everyone who's left comments and still reads this.

Wow, It's actually been years since I updated here. (Does anyone even read this?) A lot of stuff has happened IRL that has kept me from writing and posting, and while things are still crazy for me, I finally have started writing again. This time I'm writing fics for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I haven't permanently abandoned any of my other fandom fics, I've just been extremely burnt out and needed a change of pace. No promises on when I'll have something completed to post, but I am trying to get back in the groove of writing.


July 14, 2013:

Just another short update to prove I haven’t fallen off the face of the earth. Life has been keeping me fairly busy lately, and my muses seem to have run off somewhere as well, leaving me without any major writing progress….

I had mentioned over on my Tumblr that I was writing another DmC story and had thought I was about halfway done with it, when I had a friend beta read it. She pointed out quite a few major problems/inconsistencies with the characters’ reactions to the situation, for which I am most grateful. Because of that, I am now completely rewriting it, which means it won’t be posted for quite awhile. Hopefully my muses will return quickly so i can actually write it and post it…..

FFVII/FMA crossover AU. Forget the plot, the why, the how and the when except, obviously, this is the AU where they haven’t died yet and probably won’t, and imagine Zack Fair and Maes Hughes stuck in the same room, talking and hitting it off.

What's Been Found is Lost reviews
Why did things turn out this way? I had a plan. Why did you betray me, brother? I spent my whole life finding you and finding out how to take down Mundus. I used everything I had, all my resources, all my time, to search for you so we could end his reign, take revenge for our parents, and protect those frail humans. And this is how you repay me? –Vergil's PoV post DmC (reboot)

What I'd like to say reviews
Broken buildings. Broken bodies. Broken hopes. The whole city's broken now that Mudus's gone. And the world's in chaos thanks to us. I thought maybe I'd finally have a chance with this family thing. Y'know, long lost brothers working together or something. I trusted you. Why'd you do it? Why lie to us like that? -Dante's POV post DmC (reboot), companion piece to "Days and nights".

Days and Nights reviews
I can't believe it's been a month since that day. The day the rest of humanity lost the demon tyrant and woke up to the sick reality that there really were monsters living among them. The day I thought the three of us would celebrate freedom together. The day he betrayed us all. Kat's POV on the aftermath of Mundus's death and Vergil's betrayal.

It's a peaceful afternoon in the Midgar slums, and Zack and Aerith spend some time together in the church, tending the flowers, building a flower cart (that isn't quite up to someone's standards), and getting rather distracted by each other.

Fragments of Memories
Memories are strange things. Some quickly fade away, while others linger with you forever, always just there in the background. Some memories bring joy and others bring pain. It's odd how memories can shape you, how people who are gone can affect you so much. [Summary changed 12/4/2012. Now a collections of one-shots. See the author note in the 1st or 2nd chapter for details.]

Abnormal Utility: circa μ – εуλ 1992–93 reviews
A short story about Sephiroth, Angeal, and Genesis when they were teens at ShinRa. What happens when the three young SOLDIERS are off duty and some specimens escape? Certainly nothing to make the janitor's life easier. And nothing that makes Hojo's life easier either. Rated T for some language and monster guts. Note: Not shounen ai/ yaoi
