I was born once. Then some other stuff happened.

Creepy...and I love it!

Wait, you read the story? After seeing the description? Why would you do that?

4273722 Huh...


I have no idea.

4274123 Pretty sure you gusta

Huh. This is actually very well written, which I honestly didn't expect. Characterization for this universe is consistent, the humour is excellent, particularly this line:

And then we'll have an orgy while rolling around in the money pit. I know you enjoy that."

It blindsided me hard enough to get me giggling, which doesn't happen often. It's even got a nice twist at the end that I wasn't expecting. Good job, man!
I assume, from the name, that you've posted this on an alt profile? Pity, I'd rather like to see if you've written anything else.

Thank you! This account is an alt, because seriously what the hell did I just write, but don't worry: I have not actually written anything else. I like to think I'm pretty good with all the things you noted, but I'm absolute pants when it comes to actually having a story to write. All the characterization in the world won't get you past having a complete and utter lack of ideas. This was something that happened on that ultra-rare occasion when something in another piece by someone else just made things spark. I think my eyes may have glowed rainbow. Anyway, glad you liked it!

Ah here it is. I knew I'd read this before. I kept thinking this was a chapter from the original I'd somehow skipped, but the grammar is much better on this one. I don't think I'll ever get tired of this one.

I do recommend you drop the human tag, though. I know it's usually a big turn off for me, so I'm sure it is for others as well, and we don't really see any humans in this.

You really shouldn't link to the original from here.
Linking to mature rated fics and NSFW content in general is against ToS.

Can you point me to the Terms of Service? Because I can't find any anywhere.

It's under FAQ, when you click the link button on the posting tools bar it specifically says not to link to NSFW content...

It's under FAQ

This is not true.

when you click the link button on the posting tools bar it specifically says not to link to NSFW content...

This, as it turns out, is true (I've never had to use a button to make a link, so I didn't know), but it makes no sense. The story is rated Mature, and the links the site generates in the sidebar are rated Mature--including the same story I linked to--and it's in the same group, so you can navigate to the same place, etc., etc. You cannot get to the link without having Mature content enabled. Failing to provide the link would be a disservice to readers. I would prefer to see this made explicit in the Terms of Service (which I have yet to encounter) before making changes.

According to Eldorado on another thread.
"And keep the NSFW stuff out of anything you decide to link to from here. I don't know if there's any sex in what you've got done already, but if so you need to get rid of it or take down the link."
"If it'd be rated Mature here, then it's probably going to present a problem."

If it'd be rated Mature here

...implying outside of FimFiction.

Still waiting for that link to the Terms of Service.

The TOS are proving hilariously difficult to find.
It's not really so much where it's hosted as the content itself, to my understanding.

5574797 It is not against TOS to have a Mature story linked to another Mature story. Now if it was a teen or lower story and you linked to a Mature, then there would be an issue. The rule is basically in place so you don't link to things like explicit derpibooru pics and such.

Why the dark and gore tags when there was nothing dark or gory about this? Not that I'm complaining. I was just curious what this was about and when it got to a point when it would have turned bad I would've stopped. I'm just saying for all those that actually like dark and gory things will be disappointed when they read this and find neither.

It's all in the context (see here) and the implications. This story does not stand on its own, so the setting has to be taken into account. I'd rather play it safe.

5956658
It could still stand to be Teen instead of Mature, given things are only implied.
