i first watched btvs in 2022 and fell in love. i was very immediately drawn to all things spike and spuffy and found myself wanting to read fanfic, which i’d never done at all before, because i just needed more than the show gave us.

i’m a lifelong and classically trained visual artist but the buffyverse has inspired me to write fanfic for the first time ever. it’s been fun writing in such an active and inspiring community here, and i hope to keep publishing more.

i’ve also more recently gotten into fic banner making, and i have some other spuffy-related art projects planned. 

i originally only wanted to read and write canon compliant but i’ve grown to really enjoy AU, especially earlier slow burn romance. i love all things erotica and hurt/comfort, preferably at the same time. give me all the feelings and i’ll do my best to give them too.

i can also be found on my btvs tumblr where i post a fairly equal amount of silly memes and deeply analytical posts delving into scripts and making connections.
