Panda / 25 / INFP / Slytherin / Currently into My Hero Academia and Haikyuu!! and always hella nostalgic over The Vision of Escaflowne.

It has been a very long time since I posted on here or updated my profile, so baby steps are key.

I'm still writing, but you'll find most of my stuff on Ao3 nowadays! I have some Miraculous Ladybug content there, as well as Voltron: Legendary Defender, but lately I've been writing Haikyuu!! and My Hero Academia. I'd like to revisit Fairy Tail and maybe write more Final Fantasy and video game inspired fic, but I need to get all my ducks in a row first. But I'm still writing, and I feel like that's the key point to this little intro.

My old deviantART, Black-Dragon93, still exists. Has a lot of my middle school and high school art up there. My newer account, Amiria-Raven, has been abandoned almost as long as this account had, so there's not much new art from the last few years. Almost everything new/from the last few years can be found on my Tumblr. If you ever NEED TO GET IN CONTACT WITH ME, for whatever reason, Tumblr or AO3 is probably your best bet.

I'll leave the links and stuff from before down below, even though my writing forum and wattpad are basically dead. Ha. I'm thinking of trying to reboot a writing help blog or channel of some sort, though, so we'll see how that goes.

A NOTE TO ALL MY READERS:

I have graduated college with a degree in Digital Animation - but I have little confidence in my skills and no desire for the "digital" part of animation, so I've kind of stalled. I have returned to college to earn my bachelor's in Studio Art with the emphasis in Illustration, and have one more semester of that. I've recently rediscovered some of the love I had for Fairy Tail, so I'm seriously considering revisiting some of my old fics soon.

I sincerely apologize for how long I've been away.

As far as my Fairy Tail fanfictions go, I still intend to finish Perpetual Rain (PR), Infinitum, and perhaps with time and a return of inspiration, I will return to Do Fairies Have Tales? (DFHT). I still have that one AU Gruvia fic with TONS of groundwork laid out that I may write - but I also may adapt it to something else. It depends on how long it takes me to get over how honestly disappointed I was with the resolution of Fairy Tail, a series I followed and loved for so many years of my life.

I admit, I bit off more than I could chew.

I have too many stories and not nearly enough time to write them, but I've been reminded these are here and I will do my best to finish the ones that still speak to me. I apologize if one of your favorites isn't one of those.

ANOTHER THING TO NOTE:

My writing style has greatly changed and evolved over the years, so my newer works may not be the same as the old. I daresay they should be better, since I now have life experiences and more years under my writing belt, but I guess that isn't a guarantee. Maybe I'm just jaded now? Or maybe I'm still too incredibly optimistic while still feeling jaded at the same time?

Whatever the case may be, I still feel the need to warn you that the fics you may have read from 16/17 year old me will probably greatly differ from what I have written in the last couple of years. Do not expect me to still write exclusively in first person; rather, think of it as an astonishing rarity if I ever write anything literary in first person from now on, because I have embraced the glories of writing in third person.

AO3 STORIES IN ORDER OF PRIORITY [UPDATED 12.25.2018]

1. Café au Lait - Voltron: Legendary Defender, AU, Shidge; length undecided, but likely 15 chapters. Hopeful completion in 2019.
2. Hurry up and Wait - Haikyuu!!, IU, Kuroken; length undecided, leaning towards 15-20 chapters for the slow burn. Hopeful completion in 2020.
3. Next Level - Voltron: Legendary Defender, AU, Klance; length undecided, but likely reaching or exceeding 15 chapters. Hopeful completion by 2020.
4. Chasing Providence - Voltron: Legendary Defender, AU, Kallura; 13 chapters remaining, fully plotted but needs written. Hopeful completion in 2019.

I have many other Ao3 stories, but these are the ones I prioritize. My Miraculous Ladybug fics are best considered on temporary/indefinite hiatus due to other obligations and other fics, but after season 2 I do have some of my love for the series back, so I may work on them more.

FF.NET STORIES IN ORDER OF PRIORITY [UPDATED 12.25.2018]

1. Perpetual Rain - Fairy Tail, IU, Gruvia; length still undecided. Hopeful completion by the end of 2019.
2. Infinitum - Fairy Tail, IU, Lokies; length undecided. Hopeful completion by the end of 2019.
3. Oil & Water - Fairy Tail, AU, Gruvia; the previously unnamed Gruvia AU. Length undecided; start and end date in question.

FF.NET STORIES ON INDEFINITE HIATUS [UPDATED 09.28.2017]

1. Do Fairies Have Tales? - Fairy Tail, multiple ships ft. NaLu and Gruvia; plot needed lots of work and inspiration was lost.
2. Those Who Walk in the Light - Fairy Tail, Jerza; approximately eight chapters remaining, but the plot would need reworked.
3. Define - Fairy Tail, NaLu; the plot was very cliché and scrapped. The new plot has not been solidified. Will have to restart from scratch for best results.
