"Writing is an underestimated art, you are painting colorful images in people's minds by using words of black and white."

"A writer is a writer not because she writes well and easily, because she has amazing talent, or because everything she does is golden. A writer is a writer because, even when there is no hope, even when nothing you do shows any signs of promise, you keep writing anyway."-Junot Diaz

Regarding My Stories:

Favorite Time Periods/Eras: Victorian Era and Elizabethan Era (I love period/era stories, hence why most of my stories are set in either one of these eras)

Favorite Settings: I LOVE writing in alternate universes! From modern settings to different periods/eras, I love them all! I just love writing in a setting where anything that you could imagine is possible and fair game, where no one can tell you what you should or should not do. Because of this, it is extremely rare for any of my stories to be written in canon, LOL.

1. Hauntingly Beautiful [in-progress]

Summary: There's a legend in Wardington that apartment 86 in Magnolia Apartments is haunted by the spirit of a girl who was murdered. A twenty year old Shun Kazami doesn't believe in ghosts and rents the apartment. Before he knows it, his life is turned upside down and he is determined to find the girl's murderer. (In which ghost!Alice just wants to solve the mystery of her death so that she can move on and college student!Shun thinks he's hallucinating.)

-This is my most recent Bakugan story and it was inspired by 4 sources (were1993's 31 Days of GyuHao, Supernatural, Kacy Myth's Free Your Soul, and Investigation Discovery). I don't know if this is exactly 'strange', but I have this fascination towards documentary-styled crime stories and this is the result of me binge-watching one too many crime documentaries.

2. Of Angels and Ninjas [in-progress]

Summary: "This is certainly unusual. The Gehabich Manor has never been robbed until now! And I wouldn't even call it a robbery! It is quite strange. Why, the ninja only steals the jewels that Lady Alice's suitors give her and take nothing from her!"(In which Alice is a duchess and is forced to endure suitors who are asking for her hand in marriage. And it certainly isn't helping that a certain ninja is scaring off her suitors.)

-Like I mentioned before, I am a sucker for any period dramas, especially those of the Victorian or Elizabethan era. So me being me, thought that it would be interesting to write something where a ninja!Shun is scaring off those pesky suitors away from duchess!Alice.

3. Somewhere Only We Know [in-progress]

Alice Gehabich is in an unhappy, arranged marriage with Klaus von Hertzon, who is gone much too often. Her dreadful routine lifestyle is changed when the sudden appearance of her old childhood lover appears. (In which Alice is married to Klaus due to an arranged marriage and Shun is having none of it.)

-I think that this is probably a me thing, but I always imagined/thought that Shun would be one of those possessive types. Not the overly possessive types, but more like in the case of 'If-you-even-think-about-touching-my-girl-you-better-think-again-buddy' types. I don't know what I'm saying, but this was the end result.

4. Mafia Competition [complete]

Summary: One girl. Nine mafioso. Who would win her heart? (In which this is a bit of an interactive Haru x Anyone story, where the contestant with the most votes casted by the reviewers will win Haru's heart.)

-I was binge-reading Neospice12's Haru x Anyone theme challenges and I was inspired to recreate one myself. Haru needs more love!

5. Y(our) Eyes [complete]

Summary: 'There was something so familiar about those dark brown eyes, but he just didn't know what.' (In which a deadly battle costs Shun his eyes and Alice volunteers one of her eyes to him, only to disappear once he regains his sight again.

-I was watching a drama one day and a few of the episodes revolved around the female lead, who lost her eyesight in an accident and her boyfriend, who was a family doctor, went to study abroad to help fix her eyes. Inspiration struck me when I was musing one day over how Shun's and Alice's eyes were so eerily similar to each other's and how it could work perfectly with the drama that I watched.

6. Then I Met You [one-shot]

Summary: For the majority of his life, he's lived in a black and white world. Quite literally. But an unexpected trip to Moscow, Russia, may change his black and white world into that full of color.

-Based off of the Tumblr AU! that you might have seen everywhere: "AU! where everything is in black and white until you meet your soulmate", I wanted to write something short and sweet for Shurisu! This is my first one-shot and it will be the first of many to come! I wanted to add a small extra part to the AU!, where the possibility of your soulmate having a soulmate that isn't you happen. I felt like I bullied Lync too much in Of Angels and Ninjas that I should give him a break. LOL, sorry Klaus.

7. You'll Be In My Heart [one-shot]

Summary: He may be her husband but that doesn't mean that he has her heart.

-Based off of a writing prompt that I found on Pinterest: 'Write a wedding day from the perspective of someone who knows they're marrying the wrong person, but goes through with it anyway.' This could be seen as a prequel to Somewhere Only We Know in that it takes place at Klaus' and Alice's wedding a year before the events of Somewhere Only We Know occurred. I personally thought that this prompt suited the plot of Somewhere Only We Know extremely well, although this can be read without knowing what happens in Somewhere Only We Know and vice versa. I am still having a hard time about the title of this one-shot, so the title is subject to change.

8. A Poem Titled 'You' [one-shot]

Summary: "When asked to define the word 'love', his answer was her name."

-I was inspired by the one-sentence-themed one-shots that I was reading from the KHR! fandom and decided to write something similar to that for my favorite Bakugan ship, Shurisu! The title of the song was inspired by Taeyeon's OST of the same name for the K-drama "Hotel del Luna", although this one-shot is hardly related to the song itself, LOL. The one-shot, as mentioned above, is inspired by the one-sentence-themed one-shots that I've been reading, although they are in alphabetical order, with each word depicting a different time in Shun's and Alice's relationship together. And surprisingly this time, this one-shot is in canon, so it is in the Bakugan universe and not in an alternate universe!
