I'm pretty sure a few people know that Anya, Colin, Sofie (who know her) and I were involved in the Story Forum/Sim-Battle quite often back in the day. Near the end of 2004 it started to get to the point where we weren't posting as much and the board initially crashed right around that time, taking the fuel along with it. Right around late '04, it died altogether for us and officially put all of us into 'retired SF status'. There were a few stories that we did but it seemed like there wouldn't be a conclusion to the 'present' version that we were working on and eventually would fade away to nothing.
Or would it? Around November 2004, on a whim, I tried writing a small side-story for the SF that we were currently working on in a solo project. This had to do with the fact that I couldn't get anyone to post as it was and it didn't feel like we were going anywhere and dammit I wanted to write! Over time, it developed into an unstoppable force. I'm now working on a 14th chapter to this project. Those who at least remember it might get a kick out of what I've got. To warn, though, it's still a very rough project. The drafts that I'm linking to are only first tries...and likely have a bunch of grammar/spelling errors in it. I haven't gone back and proofread anything (that's saved, at least) or rewrote anything that hasn't already required me to do so (10-12 being deleted). This will likely lose those not already familiar, but I tried to pull into it as best as I could without you needing to have a massive background with the characters. It also didn't help that I was lacking a LARGE amount of background material on each character so I've slowly had to develop each one over time. I'm still not completely satisfied with it and I'm continuing to broaden it out as the story goes. I've also made a few side-things that go with it, which I'll display here as well. There's a BIO and DEFINITION page. Both are incomplete or are not completely shown to the public (for spoiler reasons). I have the majority of this mapped out and I expect this to grace about 40 chapters with around 250,000-300,000 words when completed. I'd like to get a good lead into it by the end of 2007, but I can't be entirely sure as to how long this will take. This thing keeps evolving almost daily. Anyways, I'll kill the exposition. You guys just tell me what you think: Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4 Chapter 5 Chapter 6 Chapter 7 Chapter 8 Chapter 9 Chapter 10 Chapter 11 Chapter 12 Chapter 13 Chapter 14 - Coming up. Additional content: BIO page DEFINITION page Volume 1 (Chapter 1-9 compiled) OMAKE 1 OMAKE 2 OMAKE 3 - Coming up. Like I said, it's an on-going free-time project. Some of you already know that this exists, but I figured I may as well show it to people, especially that we now have a dedicated forum to something like this. Perhaps it will speed it along, perhaps not. (edited by Hiryuu on 01-04-07 02:27 PM) (edited by Hiryuu on 01-04-07 03:24 PM) |

That's hilarious. All the exposition just to have broken links.
Forgot the folder name. It's fixed. |

This got buried but I'm still working on it. I should have something up for 14 coming up here shortly. As I told X, I think it'll be in a day or two (maybe tonight). |
