I can't believe I have to clarify this, but I've been getting messages on PM, in my own stories and here on my feed about this: No. You can't rewrite my stories, you can't finish them, you can't take my plots and use them for your own fics. The characters don't belong to me, but the stories are MINE. I won't be updating here anymore, but I'll continue these stories in Ao3 in the future. I write for my own enjoyment, and I'm glad you guys like my work: but if you like it as much as you say, you'll have to respect my authorship and my time.

@IceQueenofMitera yes, since I don't open this profile so much every time I come back I see those messages and honestly I got tired of getting them. I decided to put a disclaimer in some of my most popular stories, I'll get around to putting it on the others as well.

Since you are not going to update your stories anymore is it ok with you if I rewrite the unfinished story's A Merry Little Family, The Mabari and The Griffon, Stronger Than Lyrium, Death, Sacrifice and I know Fireflies is completed but is it ok if I add more to it or use these stories in my story if it is ok with you of course.

I don't and the same too you.

@DominicAdkins thanks for asking, I hope you don't take it personally. Good luck with your own fics

I was going to give you credit for writing the story and that way people would know it was your stories and that I was just adding to them but if you don't want them rewrite than ok and thanks for letting me know.

Hello everyone! I'm migrating my work permanently to Ao3. I won't close this acct, but I won't update it anymore. I'll get to adding new beginnings and the rest to Ao3 soon. In the meantime you can read my current works, I'm uploading Reach and Flexibility (Pride and Prejudice with turians, it's a Shakarian fanfic) you can read it here (I update it very regularly): https://archiveofourown.org/works/21241847/chapters/50576270

My country's going through a lot, I can't focus on anything lately, but today I had a little oasis of peace (much like Shepard in this story) while writing this fanfic. I hope you enjoy it :)
          
          and I'm sorry for the lack of updates in general. Building my literary career has priority over my fanfics, but I want to pick up writing them again. It helps soothe my anxiety.

hello everyone *taps mic* I know I'm the slowest updater ever, but that's because I'm working on other literary projects haha (Wish me luck with a huge secret project I'll be pitching soon, I'll need all the good vibes I can get)
          Anyhow, some of you will be happy to hear I'll be updating New Beginnings and I have plans for Mass Effect: Relays :O!! it won't be a long fic, because I have (overly ambitious?) plans to write a Mass Effect andromeda fic, dreaming about "huh, what would ME:A2 be like?" (hint: blue. There will be blue).
          I'm still incredibly busy, life as a full-time writer is all work and no games (well, some games) , but I wouldn't change where I am right now for anything in the world. Updating my beloved fics, believe it or not, will be a break from writing (don't ask how that logic works)
          Well, that would be all :) *sighs, drinks water* phew!
