Indeed. Often when I start a chapter, I know how long it will be based on its outline. Usually I end up picturing a number nearer to 10k lately, which sometimes gets pushed up to 12ish, but that's because I know how I write.

Judging from Yoko's description of phase 2, I'm expecting either sultry underwear shopping or public karaoke. I mean I did call it :) Yeah, well... it was either lingerie of swimwear considering they were in a mall. Maybe someday I'll post the whole montage sequence I wrote (it took up about 6,000 ...

Well, obviously this fell off the forum before I joined, so I haven't seen it until now. I do recall people making references to it, but I never discovered what they were talking about. Also, I'm not sure if this is already there, but it ought to be on the Yamaku Library post...

Ah, I missed this so much! As did I. “I dropped the pasta just before heading up here,... IMAGE Yes, there might be a shot fired at the spaghetti dropping metaphor... I think this time I will refrain from shaving until the next chapter posts. I might have a solid beard by then.... ;) Thanks for the...

*nods* I agree. That's one of the things I enjoy greatly about this story: the work you put in to show how your OCs interact with the ones from the VN, and do so fairly naturally. I think that's why the Lilly scene I mentioned a few chapters ago was a bit jarring -- it was only compared to how seam...

Kaori Kobayashi , coincidence or are you also a fan? Never heard of her. Actually it's an amalgamation of Kaori Nishidake from SSX, and Kobayashi Maru , the fictional "no win situation" test from Star Trek. This is one of those situations where the intent of the character and part of their backgrou...

Uh... What's a blocked number? I can block numbers on my mobile, but usually I wouldn't even get a call signal after that for those... Also it doesn't sound like Aiko consciously blocked any numbers... Caller ID blocked, so it just shows up as an unknown number. ^This, basically. A known number is ...

...it seems literally every italicised line of thought ends in an ellipsis or some variation thereof... ...I wouldn't expect this many ellipses out of Shizune, much less Aiko. It's okay to have thoughts that don't trail off once in a while, you know. For the record the ellipses added here are to sh...

I’ve read pretty much all the major pseudo route fics, but I felt the urge to finally create an account to comment on this one. Another notch in my belt... this thread is littered with comments from former lurkers. I love the day-to-day “substantial-ness” of the story, and I commend you for writing...

Well, let's just call this the longest I've ever gone without a new chapter - mostly because that's what it is. 11/06/13 to 1/28/14 is very nearly three months - 83 days, actually - during which I've been fighting with this chapter. Of course, there was an interlude around Christmas that took up a ...

Okay normally I'm not a huge fan of necro, but this was worth the reshuffling... It's all so very normal until the last 300 words or so... I didn't know Aura had ever taken such a hard left turn in a narrative - bravo!

Art isn't just drawing, painting, or digital creations. It can also come in the form of architecture and, perhaps more obviously, sculpture. Considering that braille is a tactile language along with deaf/blind signing, and sculpture is essentially a tactile art form, it's not a huge leap to consider...
