Mission Accomplished (kinda) · 1:57pm Oct 12th, 2013
Well I said I was aiming to chapter three of All for You up on Friday, and thanks to some quick work from my pre-readers I got it out as promised
Apologies for the blog last week for those that did read it. While I'm sure Fimfiction allows a one woe-is-me blog per author policy, but as people rightly pointed out, it really wasn't that big a deal. There were a couple of other factors like a few comments reacting badly to Celestia's characterization, still nothing really to be too concerned about I think.
I'm very pleased with this chapter, I've got to admit. Plus I got to sneak in a joky reference to that deeply amusingly silly and somewhat notorious fanfiction trope that is Wingfic
For those that haven't heard of it the usual setup is;
Character who has just grown angelic wings for some reason: "Don't look at me! I'm hideous!
Designated slash character for today: "But, CWHJGAWFSR... They're *beautiful*
Cue angsty cuddling and lots of it.
Or possibly perfected in this quite awesome example (totally not by me).
"(chirp) (whistle) (tweet) (bzzt)."
"But Artoo... they're *beautiful*..."
"WHOOP-WHOOP-WHOOP-WHOOP!!!!"
Yes that really is honestly a thing, ah fanfic you do make me smile at some of your absurdities.
Anyway thanks once more for reading, and now to start working on chapter 4. I've still got a few things I'm still setting up next time round, but things should be kicking into gear.
For reference, the trope was started by the anime Eureka 7. The line is delivered by Renton to Eureka in IIRC the next to last episode.
Also, lol at R2-D2 wingfic!
No no nononononononononononononononononono.
