Hello, it's me, Bastlover. :) You can call me Aryan if you like. I'm an oldie on this website, started writing as soon as I reached my twelfth birthday. And I loved it. Loved all the time I spent on here. But if you've followed me for quite some time, you'd probably realize that I've... disappeared. It's been a while since I've updated my profile and what happened to my regular posting, so I decided to do in now. I'm going to TRY and stay on topic and be serious, but if you've read my stories, well... *looks away from all of you*

Right now, I'm not sure what I would do on this website anymore. It's been so long since I've written, it feels like I've forgotten how to do so. This is mainly due to school and an active extracurricular life. School has been great, there's nothing wrong with it at all! And I'm not depressed or suffering or anything. I'm a happy fifteen year old girl... at least, I try my best!

I'm just really busy. Really really busy. Some of my close friends on this website understand what I mean by busy, so if you'd like to know, just think of it as my freetime is spent sleeping, that's how bad it's been.

I work hard, maybe too hard, for someone my age. And I realize that I gotta give some time to myself whenever I get the chance. I love writing on here, but I got to get off the computer too sometimes. I have a boyfriend, I have many friends, I have my caring family. And I have more important obligations with them, including my school and my music.

So let's start with a few questions that I'm sure you have now. :)

Why have you disappeared so suddenly without any info?

Like most Fanfiction.net writers, life gets in front of you. That has happened to so many of the people I look up to (SHOUTOUT: ILoveCelestialIce IS AN AMAZING GRAYLU WRITER, INSPIRATION TO MY GRAYLU LIFE) and I'm sure they've all come back. Except this time, I have to apologize since I had just suddenly went away. I guess that's really a hiatus. If you don't know what that is, it's a really long pause or absence. And mine has lasted for so long and I'm very sorry for not saying anything. I get many PMs asking, but I can hardly respond. So if I do see a PM and I have not responded, I'm really sorry.

Will you come back to writing? Updating?

That is a question I'm not sure how to answer. Right now school has killed me (there's a saying around here saying that us students that go to the school have no life, but I must digress... just maybe not time for everything) and my parents pressure to me to do well. So I can't slack off. Not only that, but I've been busy with many extracurricular stuff such as dancing, stepping (if you don't know what that is, just look "school step.") and more. So yeah...

So the answer I have is... maybe soon. Maybe. I think I lost interest for a bit and it felt more like a task than a hobby. I'd like to branch out from my usual Fairy Tail (another thing I've slightly lost interest in) and get into more things.

What will happen to your stories?

That is ALSO another question I don't know how to answer. I guess the best way to explain this is that I absolutely won't delete my stories. I've gotten so much positive feedback (even though now I find my stories well... terrible, lol I guess that's just the way writers are) and I like reliving memories that are happy and fluffy.

If I'm planning to update those I have not finished... that I do not know. However! Let's say I will put them on hiatus for now. That's not completely out of commission, right? I believe that's the best way to go about this little situation. Maybe one day I'll be in the mood and start writing again and have some random pop back in.

That would be more like my style. :)

H - HIATUS

O - ONESHOT

D - DECOMMISSIONED

Am I able to contact you somehow?

Oh, yeah, of course we can talk! If there's anything I love more than anything else about this website, is the thousands of friends you can make. (SHOUTOUT TO SOME BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE: Pikaskye (amazing artist, check her out), xxSaphireBluexx (one p, yes, she's insane as fuck but one of the people I can most relate to), PlatinumShiro (she's an amazing cook, aspired to own a little cafe which I will go to), Lelouch of the Rebellion (he's SO smart, it makes you want to cry since he's so amazing), A Man Named Snipes (know him as Devil...quite the devil he is, haha), Girl of Darkness10 (love you to death and keep singing, you're great at it), and SHSL Hope G Komaeda (oh, G, you hyper happy little Exceed, I hope you're well it's been so long).

I've met all these generous and lovely people through forums on the website. I still come back time to time! Hey, why don't you check us out? Our little squad has went our separate ways and we rarely talk to each other now. But I treasure these people deeply cause they've all made me open up to the anime side I used to be ashamed of. I keep them safe away in my fragile heart and still read some of our stupid (and sensual owo) roleplays. So! Why don't you look here?

Instagram is a lovely place you can find me. To see my posts, just follow/stalk me at @aryan_arcenas where you can find all the usual stuff I do in my life. I also have a Kik, it's @aryan_arcenas again, haha. From there, if you see a picture of two weird Asians all lovey-dovey, (shoutout to my wonderful boyfriend) that's me! If all else fails, you can always PM me on this website. I made a mental note to check at least every two months, so I'm bound to see it.

Or don't contact me at all... ;_; Sigh, don't make me lonely!

I guess I never expected high school to be so tough for me. Maybe I've been too positive and push myself too much, thinking I can do everything, but in reality, I'm not a god and I'm not a superhero. The most I can do is type on a computer and hope to make people happy.

And that's all I try to do, really. Try to make all the readers I have happy and all the friends I have feel positive about themselves. In the end, I sometimes forget to take care of myself.

So, goodbye. I guess that's it.

At least for now. :)
