Bio:

Aw, look at this poor little profile, it hasn't been updated in years. Well, it's 2018 and time to change that...


My name is Miranda, I'm 21, and I live in Texas. You might see me referred to as Mira, insert, or around the web as one of my other usernames: Zena-Xina or omgubler


So, I've been watching Psych since I was in 8th grade (2011) and have not stopped loving it since then. While I'm in multiple other fandoms (Criminal Minds, Supernatural, Doctor Who, Sherlock, Leverage, The Listener, Monk, etc...) I think the Psych fanfics are my favorite. It's hard to explain, why, exactly, but there's just a whole 'nother level of community within the Psych fandom that you don't see in a lot of other ones. SO many amazing writers as well.


Going through my stories you will find a major difference in quality. Mostly because I wrote a lot of them in late middle school and high school. I'm in college right now, so I'd like to think I have improved, somewhat.


Also, I would just like to place a permanent thank you right here to my writing buddy Koohii Kappu for being the best buddy one could ask for.


Secondly, thank you to anyone who has ever nominated or voted for me in the Psychfic Awards and anyone has ever submitted a review. It means a LOT to me.

Summary:

Eleven years ago, Shawn was a key player in the sting of a serial killer - and nearly became another victim in the process.

No one knew.

Now former acquaintances from a secret life are dropping by, the horrible past that Shawn thought was buried is being dug up, and the murders have resumed - and Shawn is the main target on the hit list.

With the psychic unwilling to give up any more information about his mysterious past than he has to, will his friends and family be able to protect him?

Or will a killer's thirst for revenge be fulfilled?

Rated for possibly gory, violent later chapters and some mild language. Shules

*FINAL CHAPTER JUST ADDED*

 

A response to GB FREAK'S "GRATUITOUS VIOLENCE" challenge

 

When Shawn's kidnapped, Henry's on the case...

But which of his long-forgotten cases could possibly have led to this?

And will he be able to find Shawn in time?

AHHHH I love this!

You did such a great job with the imagery of Shawn being in the freezer...

And of course Shawn and Gus would picker at who's fault it was.

My favorite mini moment was when Gus noticed Shawn had gotten the right kind of ice cream... I just love that part for some reason.

And Henry helping sick Shawn?? Ahhhhh so sweet

Author's Response: Weeeeeeeeee!! Haha!! Daddy concern is EASILY my favorite thing!! I love when an older family member gets all squishy and loving on their fractious younger - whether a daddy, mommy, or (in the case of Sherlock, my OTHER favorite fandom) an older bro.  I get warm fuzzies all over the place!!
