Re: Limits of Fanfiction - What is appropriate?
For some reason, I find my brain compressing 'BEFF' into 'Bad End Fixations'. I confess to a fixation, at least in terms of the Lilly neutral ending, but not to the fixing-fiction-fixation. That said, perhaps all fanfics can be seen as 'fixing one's headcanon' to some extent, perhaps a very large e...

Re: Limits of Fanfiction - What is appropriate?
I'm digging up this thread because the subject of BEFFs (Bad End Fix Fics) came up in the Book Club thread, and I wanted to comment on why I think they're all terrible. This is my explanation of why I feel that way, cut from a response to a forums member who asked me to critique their BEFF before th...

Re: Yamaku Book Club (Now Reading: The most suprising thing)
I have a feeling that some of the BEFFs you would consider "good" are stories that I would not consider BEFFs. But at any rate, on the subject of Griffon's story, I can definitely agree that the fact that Misha's affections for Shizune go unreturned is by no means a definitive statement on Shizune's...

Re: Yamaku Book Club (Now Reading: The most suprising thing)
The Most Surprising Thing is what I call a "Golden Age" fic, since it was obviously written before the full game was released. That isn't a bad thing, necessarily; the quality of β-fics isn't significantly lower than the quality of post-release fics (and among the β-fics there aren't any BEFFs,* wh...

Re: Ask!
This one's kind of a weaksauce, pedantic question, but where do students at Yamaku like Hisao refill their prescriptions? Is there a pharmacy counter in the admin building? Do they just go to Nurse when they need more? Does it come in the mail? Do students get a fridge in their rooms if their medica...

Re: Developments (Post-Lilly Neutral End) - Chapter 43 up 6/
Very, very nice, Dewelar. (Sorry I haven't been around to comment on your last few chapters—getting out of the military is distracting, and this is the first time I’ve had the energy to begin posting again.) Anyway, you really have raised the bar for writing Rin here. I was skeptical about a whole c...

Re: A Birthday Wish (Saki/Rika) [Updated 5/25]
This is absolutely fantastic. Other than Iwanako (yes, even in canon,) Saki and Rika are my favorite characters (which should come as no surprise if you know me—Mana Kirishima and Chigusa Sanjouin are my favorite characters in Evangelion and Utena respectively, and neither of them are actually in th...

Re: Developments (Post-Lilly Neutral End) - Chapter 38 up 4/
Good lord. You really stepped up your game for this one. I was wondering when Emi's own issues would start to surface, and you did an amazing job here. I love Emi and Meiko, and I really appreciated Emi's internal monologue. This is probably the chapter I've liked the most out of the last few; maybe...

Re: Tomorrow's Doom ~ Up: 04/02/14 ~ Reactivated
Man, I was about to post about how excited I was to have finished a few chapters ahead of schedule, but I see now that Helbereth is back. http://i.somethingawful.com/forumsystem/emoticons/emot-gonk.gif Well, straight to the recycling bin with these one hundred and seventy pages, then. http://i.imgur...

Re: Tomorrow's Doom ~ Up: 04/01/14 ~ Abandoned
Since Helbereth will not be completing Tomorrow's Doom, I have stepped up to the plate. You can expect Chapter 46 from me some time around Christmas.

I considered that, but let's face it, this guy is an asshole whether or not he's trolling.

Re: After the Dream—Shizune's Arc (Complete)
Every single post I've seen from you has been you asking for clarification on things that are painfully obvious if you just read the damn threads. I really hope nobody here rewards your slothfulness.AnImpatientUser wrote:I dont quite understand when this takes place, can someone please explain?

Re: Developments (Post-Lilly Neutral End) - Chapter 37 up 3/
My friend and I had a discussion on how long it would take for someone to say something along these lines. The over/under was 12 hours, and she had the over :(. You win, actually. Quickly after you posted the chapter, I was going to post something like "Welp, Nori has just skyrocketed to being my f...
