Summary
Kin-slayer. Ash-child.
Kruva did not choose to be born again, especially as an alien. It took a while to realize where and how she was. By the time she did, the fact that she was living in some reality that had been merely fiction became a distant memory. There is only one thing she knows for certain: that the reapers are coming, and she refuses for it to take her family down with her. Because even though she was asari, it did not change the fact that her other mother was krogan, and nothing was going to stop her from doing whatever she could to protect the people she loved the most.

Summary
Minato was tiny and trembling, crouched in the corner of a godless room with one realization: that he was on his own and no one was going to come and save him.
As someone with memories unfathomable to a child's mind, amidst a war-torn militaristic village starving for child soldiers to feed their mass graves, Minato knew he was never going to be given the chance to be free again.
A man gets reborn into Minato and it starts salvageable. Even with the killing, the torture, the emptiness of living as a soldier. Then, one is forced to realize there is very little to be happy with when one's life is full of war.

Summary
A man gets reborn into Minato and it starts salvageable. Even with the killing, the torture, the emptiness of living as a soldier. Then, one is forced to realize there is very little to be happy with when one's life is full of war.
this is the same fanfic as the first one in the series, 'as swift as a coursing wind'. However, that fanfic is drabble-style and I update it daily (or try to), so the word count per chapter is low. I wanted to make a version where the chapters were longer, because that is how I prefer to read fanfics as well. Also, I just like the way it looks.
tldr; this is for aesthetic reasons. feel free to ignore it.

Summary
Is this punishment? He thinks, not daring to voice his thoughts out loud.
“Listen to me boy, there are worse things out there than a motivated Nara, but it cuts close.” Kiba looks at his mother, and sees a Kunoichi, all war beaten and dark. Maybe training him to the ground is her way of caring for him, or at least worrying about him.
“Being curious is innocent in a village, but pulling that stunt you did could get you killed out of it, do you understand me?” He felt cold, the water making him shiver, but he was more awake than he had ever been before.
As soon as he nodded his head, subtly shooing Akamaru away with his hand, his mother was on him again.
...
Once someone gets beat into the ground enough, they become something else. In one world, Kiba is allowed to grow up without being haunted by how weak he is, in this one, he is almost to acutely aware of it. It is killing him more than any S-rank shinobi can. His closest companions being his nin-dog, an unstable Nara, and moody Sasuke left more to be desired.

Summary
aka the fanfics i plan on updating or finished. consider most of my other fanfics abandoned at the moment.
order of priority to update:
'no thoughts' is the one I currently plan on updating more often than the others
'the clouds are gone' is a WIP that takes me a while to update. However, I have the majority of it written. I just like to let it marinate to get spicier LOL.

Summary
Astarion is near the docks when he feels Cazador's compulsion on him snap. He doesn't think twice. He just takes the next available ship out of Baldur's Gate. Its destination: The City of Splendors. Waterdeep.
*
Gale takes back the glass, now empty, and then seems to fidget a little. “There is something I wanted to get your opinion on- but it can wait until you’ve recovered. You don’t look well at all- no offense meant, of course.”
“None taken,” Astarion says sweetly. “Please go on. Tell me exactly what it is about my appearance that you find lacking.”

Summary
Shikamaru had seen the promotion coming. He didn't want it but he couldn't say no. He didn't know the guy promoted with him, Uzumaki Naruto. He had never seen him in the village, to be exact. That was weird. They were the same age, they should have been classmates at the Academy. Unless... his teammates weren't his teammates, more like bodyguards. But why? Being the Hokage's son hardly was reason enough (Asuma had never had bodyguards). Could there be something else? Not that Shikamaru cared. He didn't. Nope. He had other problems to deal with. He didn't need that guy in his life. He really didn't. Until he did.

We've all seen gamer stories. The main character hops in, instantly gets his super powered epic skill and a harem of hotties. Goes on to hop into the main plot and become the best of friends with everyone important and everything ends up going their way.
Unfortunately, Leslie doesn't want to be here. And all of that sounds like way too much work.
