About me
Born to write fanfic, forced to cosplay as a functioning adult.Anyhoo!! I have written fics for 20+ zines (for-profit & charity), acted as a beta-reader for passion projects, and posted fanfic since 2010! Outside of fandom, my original works have been published in an academic journal and literary & art magazines.And don't forget to check out my original web novel, Bride of the Crow Tengu, on NamiComi, Royal Road, or Tapas for free! BOTCT was featured as a Weekly Editor's Choice on NamiComi! 🥹

Writing commissions
I offer two types of Lif commission options, donation or payment.☕ All payment is made through Kofi. ☕At this time, I am only accepting comms for Lif (FEH) & will only have 2 slots available at any given time | SLOTS: 1/2 [OPEN]
Option 1: Donation
Don’t have any ideas but want to see more Líf fics? Choose this option for a lovingly written fic!Donations are perfectly acceptable as long as you are OK with me writing a story of my own choosing. You do not see the final fic until it is posted (within 1-2 months).The length and scenario of a donation-type story will depend on the amount donated (see table below). The higher the donated amount, the fics will be lengthier & higher quality because I am motivated by a generous tip to write about our ghostie king Líf~*NEW OPTION: If you liked a drabble from my Tumblr or in the Millenium Butterfly drabble collection, and you want to see an idea CONTINUED, consider donating a minimum of $10 and it can happen! Tell me which drabble via DM or when you donate. The higher amount donated, the longer the continued fic will be. Thank you so much~If you donate $30, there will be a tasty Líf fic coming out within the month. 😊
Option 2: Regular commission
Please do not pay until I have confirmed your request via message and that you filled out the commission form. Email or message me your form via Discord (keikaruyen), email ([email protected]), or one of my listed socials.At any given time, I will only open 1-2 slots for commissions. See Story Specs below for what I will write.IMPORTANT: You must pay half of the deposit upfront. For example, if you request a Short Fic, you will pay $3 upfront; if you request a Medium Fic, you pay $5 upfront. After you approve the final draft, I will ask you to pay the rest of the commission.After I receive complete payment, I will provide the final, edited draft to you via a Google Doc link. Please download and save a personal copy. I will delete the link after 2 weeks. I will also post the fic on AO3/Tumblr. You will remain anonymous unless you want the fic to be gifted to you on AO3. If you do not want me to post it anywhere, let me know.SAMPLES

I will provide you updates at every stage of the creation process. You can provide minor changes and feedback throughout every stage (for example changing dialogue, scenes you want to include, etc).However, you can only request two major changes (such as story direction, scenes you want to modify completely, adding an additional character, etc. I will review this on a case-by-case basis and we can discuss additional prices) BEFORE the final draft stage.If I make any errors (such as forgetting a character detail or the story ending isn’t what you wanted by the final draft), I will fix it ONCE without charging.After 2 major fixes, I will charge +$5 for each correction. It takes longer for me to rewrite and edit content at final draft stage.PLEASE don’t hesitate to let me know what you want. I am open to suggestions and feedback! I want you to be satisfied with the piece.
COMMISSION FORM
IMPORTANT: Please do not pay until I have confirmed your request via message and that you filled out the commission form.
Email or message me your form via Discord (keikaruyen), email ([email protected]), or one of my listed socials.Name: [Name/alias I can refer you by for your commission]Contact: [What is the best way to contact you? Discord/Email/Bluesky/Tumblr is OK!]Character(s): [If you have an OC, please provide a description or image of what they look like. Or if you want me to write about a gender-neutral reader, I can do that! I will charge a $5 fee for additional characters. For example, Líf (Character 1) and OC (Character 2) is fine. But if you have a third OC or want a third character beside Líf and Character 2, I will charge for Character 3.].Story idea(s): [If you have an idea you want me to write, let me know!]
•Suggestive or implied sexual content is OK.
•I will not write explicit/NSFW scenes.
•If you don’t have an idea, I will create a scenario for you or suggest you to make a donation instead! <3
•Feel free to include specific dialogue you want added to the fic!Story idea example: Requesting a Medium Fic written in Líf’s POV (third person) pining after the Summoner. The Summoner uses she/her pronouns and appears in her early 20s. Her name is Kei and she has black hair and brown eyes with star pupils. She likes Líf but keeps him at a distance. Líf wants to be closer to her. A sweet and wholesome fic vibe. Can you add this line to the fic? "You are my heart, Summoner."I will reach out to confirm within 1 week. If you do not hear back from me, you can follow up via email or one of my socials. It may be possible that the message ended up as spam.
TERMS OF SERVICE

RIGHT TO REFUSE
I reserve the right to decline a commission without disclosing why or if it falls outside my current abilities to write it.The commissioner must be 18 years or older. Or have a legal guardian make this agreement on their behalf.NO AI POLICY
Do NOT feed my writing into AI. Doing so will get you blacklisted and blocked. My writing is 100% written by a human being with an English degree who loves Líf.NONREFUNDABLE DEPOSIT
If, for any reason, you paid a deposit and I am unable to complete your request within a reasonable timeframe, I will give you the fic in its current state. I will polish it up a bit but will not write any further. You do not need to pay the full price, but the deposit is nonrefundable.If you paid a deposit but change your mind afterwards, the deposit is nonrefundable. If I already wrote an outline or draft at that point, it is yours to keep.COMMUNICATION POLICY
I will give you weekly updates on your commission. Please extend the same courtesy to me. If you do not respond in a timely manner (1-2 weeks) or repeatedly ghost me when I try to confirm details with you, I will cancel the commission. Deposits are nonrefundable. Because money is involved, this is a professional transaction and please treat it as such. With that said, I am a very understanding person so please communicate with me!STORY SPECS
My stories are written in third person point of view or first person. (I don't have much experience writing second person, but we can discuss this.) If you do not specify, I will choose for you. You can also choose if you want your fic to be written in Líf’s POV or the Summoner/Your OC’s POV.✅ What I WILL write:
•Líf Fire Emblem
•Cute/suggestive shippy scenes with your OC/Summoner/FE character
•A fic from Líf’s point of view; Líf pining for OC/Summoner; your OC's POV, similar setups
•Minor injury is OK; implied sexual content is OK
•Angsty/pining fics are my strengths but you can request for fluffier/lighter tone!❌ What I will NOT write:
•NSFW/explicit scenes, fetishes, gore; contact me if you are uncertain
•Anything offensive or problematic (this includes racism, transphobia, incest, pedophilia, etc.; NOTE: Fiction is a safe place to explore these topics and themes. However, I am just not comfortable writing about it commission-wise.)FINAL DELIVERABLE
