Hello, welcome to my Tumblr. I imagine you came upon the link through one of my fanfiction profiles, so thank you for reading and supporting my stories 🙂
I’ll warn upfront that this won’t be the most active blog, as real life responsibilities and shyness keep me from engaging actively in social media. However, you’re always welcome to browse around and send me an ask.
I currently write for two fandoms: Harry Potter (primarily Tomarry) and Digimon (primarily Takari). You can find my stories on AO3 here (for Harry Potter) or here (for Digimon). I also share snippets on this Tumblr from time to time.
That’s all for now. Hope you take care and enjoy your visit!

Hello! I found your fanfiction 'Never let me go' quite interesting. Would it be okay if I translated it?
Hi there, thank you for asking, and sure, please go ahead. I'd love to have a link to the translation once it's posted.
Note that this fic already has Spanish and Chinese translations on AO3 (and potentially other languages on other platforms as not every translator is kind enough to ask me).
For readers of Paved With the Best Intentions who may have wandered here: I originally planned to start posting Act III in the spring, but while summer has arrived (at least where I live), Act III remains a jumble of notes and scribbled lines in various Google docs, physical notebooks, and Scrivener.
TL;DR: I very much want and plan to finish the story, but I'm struggling with motivation due to real life and complicated feelings towards fandom.
Writing takes passion and time. I once got a comment on Paved where the reader (not entirely jokingly) suggested that they lock me up in a room for a day so I could crank out the rest of the fic ASAP. Setting aside the creepiness, I was amused that they thought a day would be enough to finish the whole story. It takes me 20-30 hours per chapter, and that's not counting the time spent planning and researching.
These days, real life has been overwhelming due to adult responsibilities as well as the insanity happening around the world. More than that, I've been feeling mixed towards participating in the Harry Potter fandom, not just because of controversies concerning its creator, though I won't elaborate to avoid spreading negativity.
As a result, I've been dedicating what little is left of my free time to quieter fandoms and other hobbies. I still would like to finish Paved and Timeless, and I hope I'll be able to do that sooner rather than later as I dislike leaving things unfinished, but right now I don't have a time estimate.
I'm extremely grateful for the support and understanding of my readers. Thank you for being here, and I hope everyone takes care in this crazy world.
Hello! I recently discovered your Tom/Harry fics and they are great, your writing is excellent. I particularly enjoyed "(never) let me go", it's my favourite, I could actually imagine all that happening after the 7 book (well, minus the epilogue but still). I have been wondering are there Tom/Harry stories written by other authors that you would recommend to read? Because I'm struggling to find stories about them that would be as believable and well written as yours. Thank you for your work!
Thank you so much for your kind words! The Tomarry fandom is extremely talented and I'm happy to recommend some of my favorites, focusing only on the completed ones as abandoned fics can be heartbreaking. You can also look to blogs like @aethon-recs for even more recommendations, particularly WIPs!
My absolute favorite Tomarry fic, and the one that converted me to the ship, is What Souls Are Made Of by Emeralds_and_Lilies. It's a classic Tomarry time travel, but the author's portrayal of Tom strikes a good balance between his darkness and his humanity, without feeling OOC.
If you like AUs, A Thousand Paths Among The Stars by haplesshippo is a Star Trek!AU that has likable characters (even side ones) who still feel consistent with their canon counterparts. I really like the narrative voice in Harry's limited 3rd person perspective. In a similar vein, His Gravity by You_Light_The_Sky is a sweet Growing Up Together!AU that does a great job with the characters and the evolution of their relationship.
Finally, you can try the Earning His Notice series by Lomonaaeren. While I don't generally agree with the author's characterizations, this series has many of her signature elements (powerful Harry, obsessed Tom, manipulative Dumbledore) without taking them to the extreme, and the ending felt satisfying.
I hope these recommendations are helpful. Happy reading :)

I saw a YCH base that reminds me of Tomarry dynamic in my fav fic by Ailora <3 Inventing Paradoxes - Chapter 1 - Ailora - Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling [Archive of Our Own]
The pouting one especially reminds me of the epilogue's ending Deconstructing Paradoxes - Chapter 1 - Ailora - Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling [Archive of Our Own]
Please do check their lovely works. I go back to reading Tomarry after 10 years because of their ficts haha
Act II of Paved With the Best Intentions is finally done. It's been a difficult few months that wrecked havoc with my writing. I'm so grateful to my readers for their support and hope they'll be satisfied with the resolution.
“I will stop, if you tell me to stop,” Tom says. “But you have to mean it.”
Stop, I mean it. The words never leave Harry’s mouth. He promised Tom that he would be honest. And the truth is, he’s craved having someone who loves him with abandon, someone who provides the comfort and security that he’s rarely afforded.
Dumbledore always said that love was the key to defeating Voldemort. Who knows, perhaps love would be the key to Tom’s salvation.
(Later, Harry would reflect that love wasn’t Tom’s salvation but rather their mutual destruction.)
Aww thank you, I'm so happy to hear! Here's an unedited snippet from the next chapter under the cut:
Tom collapsed beside Peverell, who smirked and rolled onto his back. Tom had wanted to demean the other man, but he might’ve been the one demeaned instead.
Still, the terms of the deal stood.
Tom danced fingertips across Peverell’s bare chest. “How did you know about Myrtle Warren and the Riddles?”
Peverell rumbled with laughter. “Was buggering me not enough? You still want to talk?”
Tom rested his hand over the man’s throat, an empty threat. “Tell me.”
Their eyes met. Peverell was unafraid. “You told me,” he replied.
“I did no such thing! You’re lying.”
“No, I have not. I will give you the same answer under any Truth Potion.”
Tom sat up. He didn’t understand. He hadn’t told anyone who had happened. “How?” he demanded.
“I answered one question truthfully.” Peverell blew a smoke ring that lazily drifted through the cave. “You will have to defeat me again to get another answer.”
Thanks @moontearpensfic for the tag. I write nonlinearly so these are the last lines that I edited, which will likely look completely different in the final draft.
From the next chapter of Paved (gah please let it be done already), but extremely out of context:
“I’m paying for lunch,” Harry agrees. And strangely, talking through misgivings with Hermione has erased the last of his doubts.
He’s doing this.
He’s ready.
I think everyone has already been tagged, so I'm looking forward to seeing everyone else's WIP in my feed!
I would love to know more about your paradoxes mini-sequel, if you're willing to share! ❤️
Of course! I have a few ideas for a mini-sequel, none of which are super developed:
The main one concerns Harry and Tom's adventures in the penguin-sanctuary-turned-Jurassic-Park, which will be action- and fluff-filled. Since I'm terrible at writing action, it hasn't progressed very far
Another one has to do with Harry meeting Tom's father and stepmother, whom Tom doesn't like at all, over Christmas holiday. It'll be a holiday-themed fluff piece where Harry helps everyone bond
At the end of Inventing Paradoxes, Tom made a declaration to Harry to take him dancing, traveling, etc. Obviously, Harry is going to hold him to them!
My writing brain isn't usually wired for fluff despite how fluffy the Paradoxes universe is, so it may be a while before I can get into the right headspace for them! Hope the bullet list suffices in the meantime.

For the WIP game, I love Hufflepuff Harry so I'm super curious what your WBWL story is about!
Hello, thanks for your interest!
The story stems from the fact that, when I returned to the Harry Potter fandom during the pandemic, Wrong Boy Who Lived stories where Harry was abused by his family and went into politics were very popular. However, I wanted to write my own version where Harry was in reality loved and happy, but everyone else was still convinced that he was abused, unhappy, and about to lead some revolution.
As you can imagine, the story is very cracky. I'm afraid I don't have any snippets to share at the moment, since I haven't looked at the story in a while, but I hope to get back into it and maybe share a sneak peek down the line.
Rules: In a new post, post the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, and then post a little snippet of it or tell them something about it! And then tag as many people as you have WIPs.
Thank you @moontearpensfic for tagging me. I actively write for three fandoms, but I'll focus on the Harry Potter WIPs since that's probably what the majority of my followers are interested in. And I might be using the term WIP generously because many of them are scattered snippets that will realistically never see light of day.

I imagine most people have been tagged already! But if you're reading this, please feel free to consider yourself tagged and share your WIPs with everyone :)
Thank you @moontearpensfic and @kippipies for tagging me on the WIP game. Embarrassingly, I've hardly made progress on my WIPs since I last answered this a year ago(!) so I have the same list.
I am working on the final chapter in Act II of Paved With the Best Intentions and aiming to get it up by end of the month, if Harry and Tom would just behave. Fingers crossed!
I originally meant to post a short, fluffy sequel to Game On, Your Move as a thank you to my readers (its kudos count still blows my mind). However, I haven't been able to write much recently due to personal struggles, so here's a small snippet. Hopefully, I'll be able to share the full piece in 2025.
“So how were those video games?” George asked as Harry and Tom joined them at the dining table.
Harry flushed, accurately surmising from everyone’s wide grin that their bedroom activities weren’t a secret. Even Hermione was visibly struggling to keep a straight face.
Before he could do any damage control, Tom slid into a chair and practically dragged Harry onto his lap. “Oh, very fun,” he replied. “We enjoyed riding each other's motor.”
As the table guffawed, Harry buried his face in his hands.
I was tagged by @moontearpensfic a while back, but it's taken me a while to follow up because I've been (and still am) struggling with writer's block for Paved as the end of Act II approaches and the pressure mounts to tie everything up.
While I don't have anything substantial to share, some semblance of the following snippet will be in the next chapter.
I think everyone has already been tagged, but if you see the post and would like to share your WIP, please consider this an invitation :)
“You really don’t remember anything?” Tom asks.
“No, not much after the sunrise,” Harry replies, and Tom’s posture relaxes slightly. “What happened?”
“It’s as the Healers told you. A snake bit you.”
“How did a snake bite me on my shoulder?”
“It jumped off a tree. Everything happened so quickly that I can’t remember much else. I’m just glad that you’re okay.”

Self-rec time! What are your favorite five fics that you've written and why? After replying to this ask, feel free pass on to five other writers to spread the love. 💗
Hi, thank you for the ask 💗 It's difficult to pick, not because I think all of my fics are amazing, but because writing takes a lot of effort so I only make time to write the ideas that I love. Right now, as a survival technique, my favorite fics are my three WIPs (one in each of my fandoms).
Focusing on my completed fics, in descending order:
5 -- In Your Image (Harry Potter, Tomarry):
It's rare for me to finish writing a fic and look back upon it with the feeling that I accomplished everything I intended from the outset. This is one of the exceptions. Aside from phrasing and word choices that can always be improved, I am satisfied with my Tomarry take on The Picture of Dorian Gray, and I'm especially proud of the climax and ending.
4 -- Inventing Paradoxes (Harry Potter, Tomarry)
This is a sentimental favorite. I came back to the Harry Potter fandom during the pandemic as a coping mechanism, so I wanted to write something lighthearted and happy (though one could argue I should've picked a different ship). With the Paradoxes series, I regained confidence in writing, a skill that had grown rusty, and I also got a lot of support from my readers, which made me feel like part of a community during a difficult period.
3 -- Perhaps Love (Digimon, Takari)
Another sentimental favorite: I first started planning / writing this fic when I was a teenager, upset with the non-canonical ending to my first ship. The heydays of the fandom have long past by the time I posted, but I was able to find readers who felt similarly disappointed and appreciated the ending that I provided. As with many of my stories, Perhaps was written around three pivotal scenes, and when I reread them years later, I can still appreciate the emotional impact that I was aiming for.
2 -- (never) let me go (Harry Potter, Tomarry)
I've always been and am still fascinated by the concept of death. As a teenager, I wanted to write a story where Harry struggles with the concept of immortality as the Master of Death because it means leaving his loved ones behind, but I didn't have the life experience to pull the story together. After discovering Tomarry, I reframed my original idea into a story about the acceptance of death: both from Harry, who doesn't want to lose someone he loves, and from Tom, who's afraid of moving on.
It's sort of a strange story, and I still find things I'd like to improve when I reread it. However, I was happy that it found readers who enjoyed its strangeness and super flattered that it was bound into a little book!
1 -- Once Upon a Fairy Tale (Digimon, Takari)
Like In Your Image, this is one of the few stories where I feel that I satisfactorily translated my complete vision to paper (and more). I enjoyed exploring how two characters can fall in love and yet still not be together, a theme that I revisit in other works, whether consciously or subconsciously. And when I reread the story, I can discern the hopes and dreams of a person who has yet to experience the ups and downs of real life, which fills me with bittersweet nostalgia for the innocence I once had.
Thanks for reading my rambling!
I'll tag @moonytear, @isalisewrites, and @kippipies (but no pressure at all!).
Aww it's beautiful, love the differences -- obvious and subtle -- in the two portrayals! And the hat in the final picture is extremely intriguing and makes me wish someone would write a fic based on it.
