Author has written 6 stories for Kuroko no Basuke/黒子のバスケ.

I've never been good at introductions. I'm a good-for-nothing with no future and too many mental problems, so there's that. I try to be as friendly as possible, so don't be afraid to talk to me or give me story advice or ideas. I read and reply to any sort of review. I'll come up with something better to put here sometime.

I am currently very into Kuroko no Basuke. I actually made this account for the purpose of posting KnB fanfics. There will eventually be things that are not KnB though. I am a huge yaoi fan, so you should expect BL for sure, but not everything I write will have it.

Just a fair warning, most of my stories will have very dark themes. Suicide, rape, death, et cetera. I will put warnings probably at the beginning of each story. If not, then at the beginning of the chapter where the potential trigger will take place. Not everything will be dark though, I do love me some fluff.

I now have an account on AO3 under the name ThoseWhoDanceInTheShadows so my stories will be there as well. And also a KnB themed tumblr with the url kurokos-basketball.

Thank you in advance for checking out my profile!

Nineteen: A Truth of Red on Blue by hokkyokukou reviews
When they were nineteen, Kuroko was no longer with them. It was an accident that no one liked to talk about. They called it an accident, because the alternative was too horrific. But, when they were nineteen, they realized... it may not have been an accident after all. The red truth was beginning to surface no matter how much they rejected it, so they took it head on... for Kuroko.

Free To Be You and Me by Kryzanna reviews

Season by Lys ap Adin reviews
Every time Aomine thinks he's come to grips with being an overgrown catboy, another complication rears its head. Adult for smut. Sort of the Urban Fantasy AU of Bird on a Wire, but without the angst. Catboy!Aomine and Kuroko and xenokinky kinds of things.

Preemptive Celebrations by the mythologist reviews
The night before their first Winter Cup, Kagami helps Kuroko fall asleep, using rather unorthodox methods. After a night of thinking far too hard, Kuroko approves. Rated M for language, man love, dirty talk and some sexual activity.

ricochet by VoiSieteQui reviews
the worst thing about copies is that they're always a step down from their originals, are always considered as fakes, and are always pushed to second place. the good thing, though, is that they serve convincing replacements. that's enough for Kise-because his only job now is to sit, talk, and pretend for Aomine that Kuroko Tetsuya is still alive. charadeath, aokuro/onesided aokise
