Hello! I am miladyRanger. I am a young (depending on your own age) writer who fell in love with books prior to her third birthday. A "Grammar Nazi" and bookworm, I discovered the fan fiction community through a friend, where I became addicted to these expanded ideas in each of the realms and universes inhabited by my favorite books, shows, movies, and the like. Inspired, I began to write my own collection of fan fiction, most of which was horrible and will never see the light of day on this site. /*shudders at the thought of the reviews said tales would receive*/ After lurking for better than nine months, I decided that I would create an account, if for no other reason than to keep track of the best tales I've found on this site. Soon enough, I started posting stories that... well, I'd like to take them down, since they do not reflect my current writing ability and make me cringe when I reread them, since they were written in high school. As I went through college, my writing got significantly better, and I am quite proud of my newer works regarding Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Detective Conan, and Magic Kaito.

I am currently working on an insane number of stories, none of which I plan to begin posting until they are much closer to being completed. I don't believe it's fair to keep readers waiting forever because I have momentarily lost the drive to write. My muse (or muses, I'm not entirely sure which) is often considered "evil" for what it causes characters to do, seemingly without any conscious effort on my part; beware of cliffhangers, for the evil muse loves them. /*cackles madly*/

My wonderful partner in crime, NinthFeather, can be found here: https://www.fanfiction.net/u/2220267/NinthFeather. Together, we have created massive amounts of chaos and some really wonderful stories. We love to egg each other on, and challenge each other to write things that we would never dare to do on our own. The two of us also have a joint account known as miladyFeather (https://www.fanfiction.net/u/6149805/miladyFeather), where we co-write stories. Currently, the completed stories are all Detective Conan and Magic Kaito, though we have others in the works, and we are also working on an original book. Wish us luck!

/*clears throat*/ And now, to the sad, painful reality of fan fiction...
As a fan fiction author, I, of course, do not own the rights to the most of the things I write. That being said, the vast majority of the characters, backgrounds, etc. will not belong to me. Please do not sue, harass or otherwise annoy me for 'borrowing' them. My works are my own, just based on someone else's characters and occassionally influenced by another author or by events around me. I make no profit on these stories, beyond my own amusement.

The opinions and actions of the characters may or may not coincide with the canon of the books and films; as such, most of my writings are AU.

You will never find 'slash' or any explicit/graphic content in my tales, as I refuse to write them. The closest I will ever come to said topics will be under the 'friendship' category or as 'war/captured by the enemy' if I can stay on topic long enough.

By the way, I am not a medical practitioner, and never claimed to be. My illnesses/symptoms/etc. are what fit with the story, not based on actual medical knowledge or background. Do not use anything I write to try to heal someone. It's not a good idea.

Be warned: I do use quotes from the books, films, shows, etc. so if something sounds familiar, that is most likely why.

Praise, ideas/plot bunnies and positive criticisms are welcome. I'm always looking for reviews, and the ones that criticize are as appreciated as any others, so long as the aim is to improve my writing or storyline. Flames will be used to heat the house - it's cold here!

Enjoy!
