About me:

Hello there, you can call me Meri. It's not my actual given name, but rather one I have adopted for myself. They/their pronouns suit me just fine. 

Currently, I am a Stenography student with the ambition of becoming a court reporter.  

I haven't written fic in quite a long time, so I can't really say much about updating schedules and whatnot. Reviews are definitely appreciated, and a Brit-picker would be lovely. I'm also willing to beta-read for others. 

There's a link to my art/writing blog here, where I post almost exclusively about my adventures in writing, reblog writing help and references, and become too emotional about fictional characters. There's a link to my personal blog there, which is much more varied.

I've Always Wanted a Neighbour Just Like You is a very personal project, and sharing it with all of you is doing wonders for my soul.

AU ending for PS. Character Death. What if Dumbledore hadn’t been the first teacher to realise something was wrong?

    And now my heart is shattered into a million pieces. I can honestly say I didn't see Harry's death coming.

    Fantastic work, definitely something to read again.

Past Featured Story Augury by Ria Rose starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 55]
In a small coffee shop in London, Severus meets a side of Harry that both unsettles him and intrigues him. From here, a game is played.

    This was absolutely fantastic, a pleasure to read. Usually, I don't read oneshots, but you really packed in a ton of meaning in a short fic.
    As someone who has been struggling to change, I can really appreciate everything Harry is trying to say.
    Well done!

Past Featured Story Session Transcripts by lastcrazyhorn starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 286]
What happens when a brain damaged Harry and a transgender Hermione both get sorted into Slytherin? Snape's not sure, but he thinks it's likely to be an interesting term. This story follows various first years through the trials of their first year

Reviewer: Snapesnarks (Signed)
    I love this story so much!
    Hermes' story is very well told, and as someone who identifies as genderfluid I appreciate how you've handled it.
    Both issues with gender and Harry's mental illness are handled with incredible tact and that's not an easy thing to do.
    More than anything, I hope Severus is able to obtain custody of Hermes. I bet he never thought he'd want to be the father of two boys, lol!

Past Featured Story Prisoners by Whitetail starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 518]
Left with partial paralysis after being tortured by Voldemort, Severus is sent to Bell Point, a secure location on the seaside owned by the Order of the Phoenix. However, he is not the only one who will be there, for Harry, refusing to express his emotions regarding Sirius’ death, has unknowingly invoked an ancient kind of magic that will force him to deal with them. Deaged to four years old, he has to contend with a bitter and broken Snape, who, like Harry, is being forced to live in a body that does not work the way it used to. These two vastly different people have beat the odds many times over, and somehow prevailed in a world that has tried time and time again to destroy them. But the challenges they now face are nothing like they’ve ever seen before. Will they rise to the occasion, or become prisoners within themselves?

    This was absolutely fantastic! Beautifully bittersweet and wonderfully written. I'm somewhere between smiling and crying and honestly that's my favorite place to be after reading something.

    Author's Response:

    Thank you so much for reviewing! It is always a treat to get a new review for a finished story. I am so glad you liked it. :) 


One of Those Days by Anthezar starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 545]
One unlucky hit with a strange spell. That's all it took to alter the course of Harry's life - and everyone else's life around him. Bound to stay within ten feet of each other, Harry Potter and Severus Snape have to learn to get along or die trying.

But sometimes in the hardest of times, one can learn things never imagined possible. After all, the past doesn't define the future.

Title: Chapter 1: Oh And Harry… 21 Dec 2014
Reviewer: Snapesnarks (Signed)
    When I saw the summary, I sort of thought, "what??" but after reading this chapter I'm very much intrigued. Also, Harry apparently running low on money is definitely something I'm curious about.

Reviewer: Snapesnarks (Signed)
    Ahhhh I can't wait to see what comes next! Gan is a wonderful character, and is a good person for Harry to have in his life.

Sealed With Lies by Alexannah starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 169]
Snape puts Harry under a magical leash to keep him out of trouble. But unbeknown to him, Harry has been turned into a vampire, and the leash is causing far more harm than good. Terrified of losing his friends, Harry would rather starve than risk the truth coming out.
