So then, I'm a college student, age is none of your business. Though I encourage people to make guesses as I laugh at them.

Oh, and to let people know, I'm a horrid speller and Word doesn't seem to get everything.

Concerning DigiMaster of Hope, I've not lost interest, more like I've lost inspiration. To my hundred some odd reviewers, I thank you with my whole heart, but I'm sorry to say I'm not planing to update it unless I find something to update it with. Either that or do a major rewrite.

I would also like to officially offer those who wish the opportunity to continue Magical Secrets at Sea. There is no limit to how many may do so. I also have two requests. 1: Please mention me in the disclaimer. 2: PM me so that I can read it!

Updating News:

09/4/15 AN for A Missed Boat, A New Chance: Epilogue Finally! I got the epilogue for my new story up today. I know, it's short, but it's mostly bait to see if anyone wants more. I'm almost done with Chapter 1 and I plan on doing at least 5 chapters total before I decide to call it quits or not. I've actually gone through and planned this one out unlike MSaS where I literally wrote myself into a corner. Nope! No way will I be stuck on this one. I've got it all planned out. All 43 chapters. Yes, 43 chapters. I do believe that it is going to take that long to write out everything I want down. As for an update schedule, I am not going to keep one. I'll update when I update and not a moment sooner. I want this to be a fun exercise, not a chore. Do I plan on taking my time on this? Not exactly, but if I'm feeling motivated enough...eh. We'll see. Anywho! I hope whoever is reading this enjoys and decides to stick around. I'll be posting chapter 1 in a few hours or so...sometime tonight so look forward to it.

08/19/15 Well, here I am again after...how long? A freaking long time, let's put it that way. What is it with me and pirates? First MSaS and now that I'm on a One Piece kick, I'm preparing to post an Usopp fic. I have several Usopp stories going through my head. And one about Law and Harry Potter, but that's for another time. Been wanting to get them down for a while, but with everything going on...haven't really had the time. Now, I'm making time. Why? Because I want to get back into writing, damn it! I want back in! As for MSaS...I enjoy reading what I have written, but to be perfectly honest, I have written myself into a corner with it. I do not think I will be picking it back up anytime soon. As for the piece I'm in the process of outlining, I'm going to do the first few chapters, get some feelers for it, see exactly where I'm going with it, and then decide to commit to it which I more than likely am considering there are not enough Usopp centric stories.

12/25/12 Hi all who read this! I just discovered some interesting news. I probably should have researched this sooner, but college and over-seas travel makes things a little difficult to keep things on track. So, I know I promised all of you MSaS fans that Older than Time would continue my story, but he only made it to chapter 4. Turns out that he put it up for adoption to Erephen earlier this year. OtT did not let me know of this, of which I'm a little peeved, but there you have it. She adopted it back in August of this year, but hasn't posted anything yet.

8/2/11 Woops! Another year has come and gone without an update from me. I believe my writing days are over I'm afraid, but I update my profile with good news! Older than Time has decided to take up MSaS! Time is an excellent writer and, though there is only a short prolog at the moment, is sure to knock our socks off in the future. The title of the story is Magical Secrets at Sea II Piracy in Scotland. I will be putting an update up to notify everyone with alerts shortly. To those that asked to be PMed of an update, I would like to apologize as there are too many of you to keep track of to do so.

8/13/10 0_0 Has it really been two years since I updated this thing? I am so sorry! I have been receiving so many awesome reviews for MSaS and I am sorry to tell those that are asking for updates that there is nothing in the planning process right now. As a matter of fact, my inspiration has been so dry as of late, I don't think I'll be writing much of anything in the foreseeable future. If I do write anything it will probably be one-shots. Life right now consists of mostly school, and moving into a dorm is both a scary and exciting process (for those doing the same, remember hangers and bed sheets).

Update 10/5/10: I've also been getting many requests to update and/or post when someone does decide to take up MSaS. I promise I will as soon as someone does. Unfortunately, no one has yet. As for the chances of me continuing it: they are very, very slim. Life has taken a turn for the worst on my end since school started, so unless I decide to drown my sorrows is writing, I will not be updating or posting anything other than someone's continuation of MSaS.

A huge thanks to everyone that has reviewed! You guys are the highlight of my day!

That's it for now. Bye bye!

- A few things about me -

Favorite Games: Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, Kingdom Hearts 2, Jack and Daxter, Jack II, Jack III, haven't played Jack X yet, but I'm sure it will be up here soon, Ookami, and I'm in love with most of the Final Fantasy RPGs. Sadly, I've yet to finish a FF, but I still love them.

Favorite Books: I like the Harry Potter series up to book 5. Various manga including Bleach, Hands Off, Yellow, and Eerie Queeri. I also collect various doujinshi, but only within a series I like. I've recently discovered Karen Miller and her Kingmaker, Kingbreaker series and it is amazing. Trudi Canavan is also an amazing author with her Black Magician Trilogy as well as her other books. Of course, there is Lord of the Rings by Tolkien. I also like Michael Scott's the Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel, but have stopped reading at The Sorceress. I've also recently discovered that I am a DC fan, well, more of a fan that I thought as I've taken to a lot of the Superman comics.

Favorite Movies: Pirates of the Caribbean, Ghost Rider, Batman Begins, National Treasure, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, most of the Jackie Chan movies, Men in Black I and II, the Matrix and all movies related to it, X-Men movies I-III, and probably more, but I can't seem to think of them at the moment.

Favorite Cartoons: I am a major anime fan. As such, most of the cartoons I watch are anime. My first was Digimon, then it moved to Ranma 1/2, Gundam Wing, Sailor Moon though I've kinda grown out of it, Ruroni Kenshin, Escaflowne, Inuyasha, Yuyu Hakusho, Fullmetel Alchemist, Trigun, Ghost in the Shell, Bleach, Cowboy Bebop, Gravitation, DN Angel, and probably more, but I can't remember off hand. If you can't tell yet, I get most of my anime from Cartoon Network and Adult Swim. Curse my beloved parents for not subscribing to the anime channel.

Favorite Couples: I'm mostly a yaoi fan, so I'll post my more favorite yaoi couples. I might add the het pairings later.
Harry/Draco - Harry Potter
Harry/Luna - Harry Potter
Takeru/Ken - Digimon Season 2
Sora/Riku, Roxas/Axel - Kingdom Hearts
Naruto/Sasuke - Naruto, though I don't like the anime much
Herro/Quatre - Gundam Wing. Rare, I know, but I like rare pairings
Yusuke/Koenma - Yuyu Hakusho. Again, another rarity

Favorite Saying and Quotes from other fics:

"Slytherin's Basilisk, the sixth Horcrux and probably the most surprising. Tom Riddle actually had the stones to go and turn the 1000-year-old Basilisk into a Horcrux, which in retrospect was probably his most intelligent choice of Horcrux to be honest. Who would be able to kill a Basilisk that old? Well... Harry didn't count, he had dumb-luck and a prophesy covering his ass." - Black Birds by Araceil.

"He blamed Charlie. Charlie, Fleur, Seamus and Luna, they were all perverts and they'd corrupted his mind, they gave him a dirty mind. He blamed them entirely.
Really, when telling someone they should think outside the box, they should include warnings about your brain rolling into the gutter and down a storm-drain." - Black Birds by Araceil.

"From that point on it was either die via a delicious chocolately death, or eat the damn thing and drink his tea.
Tempted though he was by the former, he ate the damn biscuit.
Molly would cry if he died. Chocolatey death or not." - Black Birds by Araceil.

"He noticed with a start that a Huffelpuff was staring at him, the Longbottem boy.
The boy very slowly, very clearly, flipped him the bird before calmly returning to his dinner.
Confusion reigned." - Strange Return by Shivera

"I will lie, cheat, steal and destroy things for really good books. And I will sell my soul for an internet connection, I miss Google damnit!" - Strange Return by Shivera

"Right, so instead you wanna risk the chance that it is Puu and he tries to go through one of those owl holes?" Yusuke pointed up towards the small, open windows high up the walls of the Great Hall. "That fur-ball forgets how big he is now, and I don't want to find out how many wizards it takes to pull a five hundred pound bird out of a window fifty feet off the ground." - Keeping Quiet by DemonUntilDeath

"Toto, we're not in Kansas anymore." Hermione whispered but Harry heard this time.
"Screw Kansas, we skipped Munchkin Land and the yellow brick road and landed all the way in Emerald City." Harry didn't even giggle and Hermione could only numbly nod in agreement." - The Feel of Feelings Rewrite by Falling Tenshi

"With a long suffering sigh, Hermione reached down, grabbed Harry's foot, and started dragging him. "Holy mother of sheep! What in the name of chickens are you doing? Cheese and crackers woman! Stop killing the brain cells that I have managed to preserve!" Harry roared, squeaked, squawked, and pleaded from his position." - The Feel of Feelings Rewrite by Falling Tenshi

"Kakashi all but face faulted.
Naruto... I was hoping you might have been the one to back me here... Kami damn the good will of the innocent hearts of gakis everywhere..." - Heaven's Eyes by ink-snake

"There he admitted it, he had a past life. Three thousand years ago, he was a High Priest, a General, a Pharaoh and a God. Now he was just a very pissed off CEO. Someone was going to find out how much trouble that they got themselves into when he got his hands on them." - A Past and Future Pharaoh by LadyLunarPhoenix

"Wait, wait, stop. I'm producing some sort of magical bottom pheromones, which is why creatures like Dobby will want to hump my leg now?" Harry asked, with disbelief.
"No, no, no. I mean the more humanoid creatures," Dumbledore assured kindly. "Bishies and such."
"Professor, I demand the right to visit to London," Harry cut in with a wild look about his face. "I need to do some shopping. Immediately. This is of vital importance."
"Four hours later, Harry returned wearing a dragon hide armour and armed to teeth. "Okay, who wants to go out on a date?" he asked manically, a charmed chainsaw roaring away in his hands. "It's a nice night outside. Anyone?" - Toil and trouble by esama

"Anyone else think this is an odd trail of conversation?" Quatre randomly asked.
Trowa nodded as Heero gave his usual 'hn'. Duo chuckled and retorted, "Not really, except for the fact that we're having a normal teenager conversation for once."
"Normal?" Trowa inquired, his green eye sparkling in mirth.
Duo pouted and crossed his arms with a huff. "Fine. Normal with mentions of weapons of mass destruction and war thrown casually into the mix." - Harry Potter and the God of Death by TristaDin

"Elcalad told Estel, 'forget the bears, it is the troll behind you that you have to watch out for'." - Marbles by kookyfaun3

"Clark lay unconscious on the floor.
"J'onn looked up at the Batman and Bruce met his eyes.
"'So, ya wanna help me carry two-hundred and thirty-five pounds of kryptonian dumbass up three flights of stairs?'" - Signals by RenkonNairu

"The lamp was still off and the letter was still in place when Desmond woke up the next morning. Huffing a sigh of relief and smiling ruefully at himself, he picked up the letter to dispose of it when he realised that he hadn't folded his letter, but this one was.
He opened it to see Ezio's familiar writing.
Fuck." - Notes Left Behind by Dark Ice Dragon

"Tony Stark of Stark Industries has returned to the United States and in an earlier press conference he's announced that Stark Industries would no longer manufacture weapons, Robert Downey reports." - Harriet Coulson: Avenger by Jonghyun-appa

"'Child of Merlin? Wait. Now I remember where I heard that name?' Turning to Emrys, Harry's mouth dropped. "Sweet Merlin! You're Merlin!" - Harry Potter and the Wardrobe by GenkaiFan
