 Author has written 32 stories for Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's, Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL, Yu-Gi-Oh GX, and Attack on Titan/進撃の巨人. Name's Ardent. I'm a college student who spends their extra time writing fics about dorks and card game shotas. Welcome to the Trickstar Show! You can find my oneshots and AU challenges on Tumblr and AO3, and my longer running AU series on DW! I write mostly Zexal oneshots, but I also write for 5D's, Shingeki no Kyojin, Persona 4, Dangan Ronpa (both games), and Free! I will read almost anything, but I really look for accurate characterization and I avoid poor grammar like the plague. I do have my favorite pairings!
