Re: A Butterfly Dream - Iwanako/Hisao Inversion

Then again, it's hard not to be derivative, especially with an underexploited concept. How many Rika authors turned her into a nihilist simply because the first major pseudo-route portrayed her as such? (Incidentally, this author, Downix, broke the mold with their own Rika fic. Which was compelling...

Re: A Butterfly Dream - Iwanako/Hisao Inversion

Uhhh... I get that most people probably haven't read my fic recently enough to be totally aware of this, but this is immensely derivative of my work. I haven't read the whole thing and it probably goes off in a unique direction, but the first couple chapters in particular are literally just my writi...

Re: Alt Dreams [One-Shots] (#52—'Truth and Consequences') (S

Goodness, it's been much too long since I read a Brythain ficlet. It's like coming home to my abuela's soup.

Also, wait. Was this Hisao/Natsume?

Re: Hanako and Iwanako Fanfic.

It means "I'm terrible at reading comprehension, or I would have noticed the numerous times Leaty stated that she hadn't abandoned her story". FFS. If somebody wanted to see more MTtB badly enough that they'd just rip me off without credit and try to bullshit their way to success, easier t...

Re: Hanako and Iwanako Fanfic.

And you again lifted several parts of the scene right from the VN. Not just the VN. This story is literally plagiarizing MTtB . Something hard and fast collides with my sternum, knocking me to the ground with the force of a pneumatic drill. It overruns me completely, and everything goes black as th...

Re: Tactility - A Points-Of-Divergence AU Fanfiction

Well, do also keep in mind that TVTropes is not an authoritative document. The fact of the matter is that if Hisao, and several past events, have been changed drastically prior to the beginning of the story proper, that's not a point of divergence—there's no single decision or event that causes the ...

Re: Tactility - A Points-Of-Divergence AU Fanfiction

I agree with Mirage—this is an alternate timeline fic, not a point of divergence fic.

Re: Yamaku Book Club (Presenting: Nurse & Meiko)

Stop the Clock: There was a discussion in some other thread where some others - most prominently Leaty if I recall correctly - insisted it couldn't be done. That didn't sound like me, so I looked it up, and you are wrong! As a totally unrelated side note, I predict a shining future, some day, where...

Re: Tomorrow's Doom ~ Up: 04/30/06 ~ recommitted to completi

...I cannot believe my own hiatus has gone on for so long that Homestuck ended and Helbereth came back to finish TD.

Anybody want me to wait it out a little longer, see if we get Half-Life 3?

Re: After the Dream—Lilly's Arc/'Testament' (Complete)

Hahahaha, holy shit. This is positively delightful. xD

My experience being stranded in Bumfuck, Indiana for half a week has been immortalized in ficlet form. Of all the life experiences I've ever gone through... :lol:

Re: Yamaku Location Confirmed, Iwanako Reveal

As a celebrated Iwanako historian, I've actually suspected that about her name for a long time. It's basically the name "Yvana" with a child radical.

Re: Yamaku Book Club (Now Showing—Developments!)

I mean, yeah, there were no hard feelings with Shin , but I found it a hard pill to swallow that Hisao's BFF circle just kind of crumbled apart at the end. For what it's worth, Dewelar and I deliberately left ambiguous the question of whether or not Shin is aware of (or even suspects ) Iwanako and ...

So is MTtB "an incomplete sequence in which Hisao Nakai abandons his girlfriend to a life of eternal suffering"? :P
