The Girl Who Wished She Were a Cat

This is an alternate-universe story based on Assault Lily Bouquet, where Yoshimura Thi Mai becomes a Boosted Lily and meets Ando Tazusa several years earlier, in the course of rescuing her from the GEHENA lab personally. Unlike my previous long-ish fanfic, it doesn't spoil Bouquet, and I actually think it's different enough that you don't need to have seen the anime to read my fic (it contains some explanations of the setting that will hopefully help if you go in blind.)

However, it has some pretty violent and intense content, so please read the content warnings so that you know what to expect. I fully understand if you don't want to read it after looking at those.

That said, it would make me happy if anyone's able to read and enjoy it.



A little over a year ago, I started writing a long-form fanfic (of Assault Lily, of course): A Dream Where All the Flowers Bloom. I finished it half a year after that. I'm still proud of it and think it's some of my best writing.

But this fanfic isn't easy to read, because it hinges on plot knowledge of not only the Assault Lily anime, but a story event from the gacha game, Blue Strike of the Soulmates. This event had been fan translated into English at the time by yours truly, but only in Google Doc form, and I didn't feel comfortable linking to it most places since strictly speaking, fan translation isn't legal.

Well, I'm pleased to announce that Blue Strike is now fully subtitled in video format.

It's still not legal, but if any of the copyright holders care they can have the YouTube videos taken down. So far all they've done is monetize some of them (the ones with vocal BGM.)

And that means all you need to do to read and fully appreciate my fanfic is watch the anime series Assault Lily: Bouquet, watch all of Blue Strike of the Soulmates (including the "Promised Meeting" video at the end,) then head on over to AO3. Easy, right?

Nah, not really. Can't blame anyone for not doing it. But at least it's possible.

(Also, watching Boosted Friend and Noble Lily Report beforehand as well would probably be ideal. They're not as essential as Blue Strike, though.)



I wrote another fanfic! Be warned, it's pretty silly.

I tried to write something for Fumi's birthday a few months ago and it just didn't happen, so I'm glad that I was able to do it for Tazusa's birthday. What came of it is not my favorite thing that I've ever written, but I think it turned out alright.

Wonder if I'll ever be able to write significantly more than 2,000 words again though. Not that longer is always better, of course.
