Hello there! Yes, I will, in fact, be holding festivities on the 18th and 19th for the great end of SotS party! Most of it will be run through the discord server [ https://discordapp.com/invite/eTuseTh ], though you'll be able to join some stuff without it.
SATURDAY, APRIL 18th
11 AM Mountain Time (5 PM Universal): SPEED ROUND ROBIN WRITING.
First of all, hello people, I have another blog post of lore you might want to check out. I tried to synthesize EVERYTHING!
Now, for what you're here for. The results of the FIRST ROUND!
BLACK
Optimal Distribution vs Devotion’s Legacy
68.8% > 31.3%
Optimal Distribution takes the first round with a major majority!
ORANGE
Meeting Your Maker vs Solar Waltz
78.6% > 21.4%
Songs of the Spheres' final "chapter" will be released, live, Sunday April 19 at 7:00 PM Universal time, 2:00 PM Central time, 1:00 PM Mountain time, the same way chapter 130 was released.
Beyond that, as you may have noticed SotS updated early today: that's because I want to end exactly on April 19th. SotS is going to be on an accelerated schedule until that day where the end arrives. Here's what it looks like:
March 14 (today): Our Story
March 17: The Final Frontier

EGADS! Look what we have! A new SotS story: one I didn't write! Well well well well well!
Allow me to introduce you to Compliance, a story about a Warhammer 40k Commissar tasked with being a "diplomat" to Merodi Universalis. This goes about as well as you might expect.
I made a timeline for SotS events that happened in the story so far. With fancy little animating gifs for every arc! Goes up to chapter 102 right now. Take a gander if you're curious / have difficulty remembering everything.
-GM, master of time.
Songs of the Spheres by GM Blackjack.
This story is long. Horrifyingly so. And it is not perfect by any stretch of the imagination.
But it's goddamn interesting. And even when I got to a chapter I didn't like, it never failed to keep me interested.
It's a mega-crossover. It's a musing on the nature of narrative and story. It's an exploration of quite a few philosophies.
Good day. If you’re reading this, I imagine that you’ve come from GMBlackjack’s Songs of the Spheres. If not, this entire post is going to mean nothing to you. If you're curious, here's a link to the story:
You may notice I have a new story. This new story is titled, simply and mysteriously, Yiyxa. This story is supposed to be very mysterious and get you to ask many questions about what's going on. So if you want a completely blind experience, I'd recommend avoiding this blog entirely.
But if you want some details...
Will be streaming Genshin on my Twitch channel in about 45 minutes for the new story, Facets of Fate, mentioned in the last Blog Post.

Hope to see you there! Let's craft a silly SotS story together!
-GM, master of potions.
157 chapters and 2.5 years. As of now, the longest story on fimfiction marked complete, and the fifth longest overall.
Songs of the Spheres has been a massive undertaking. It currently sits as the fifth longest fic on the site at 2.1 million words and has been a part of my life for so long it feels strange to be marking it complete.
If you haven't seen it, go watch it, then come back.
If you have...
MY BEAUTIFUL CANONICITY!!! SO PRECIOUS! SO... SO RUINED!!!
I thought I was safe! I thought they'd never destroy the Tree! I was so wrong! SotS cannot be fully S9 canon now! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA *deep breath* WAAAAAAAAAAAAA
So I just opened myself up for commissions and launched a patreon ( here )
Commissions are easy. You can hire me to write almost anything you want so long as it isn't pornographic in nature. They are priced as follows:
1,000 words: 10$ + 10$ per additional kiloword.
5,000 words: 45$ + 10$ per additional kiloword.
10,000 words: 80$ + 10$ per additional kiloword.
There is a new story, an answer to the question "Who is...?"
...to bring you news of a milestone.
Songs of the Spheres is now on the first page of 'Longest' stories when searching with the M-filter on. This is a great achievement on its own, but even better is its OVERALL placement.
This is perfect. Just... simply perfect.
Let us celebrate by WRITING MORE SOMBRA'S CLIPSHOW SNIPS!
((also we hit 200 likes so extra woohoo))
-GM, master of 19
This is the LAST DAY for you to submit suggestions for the 100th chapter of Songs of the Spheres! This means if you haven't gotten any suggestions in YOU PROBABLY SHOULD GO DO THAT before I have to shut you down.
I'm looking at you FoME. And possibly a few others I can't think of off the top of my head.
TIME IS RUNNING OUT! Go here and leave a suggestion to make chapter 100 what the readers want!
THIS NOVEMBER
The tenth arc of Songs of the Spheres comes to a close
in the Week of Doom
NOVEMBER 17: 127 - Different Views of Reality
NOVEMBER 19: 128 - Collapse, Part 1
NOVEMBER 21: 129 - Collapse, Part 2
NOVEMBER 23:
Hey. Hey guys. Guess what.
We’re doing another Sombra’s Clipshow! There originally wasn’t going to be a second, but while I was going through editing SotS, two chapters in arc 7 needed to be consolidated into one because… the amount of exposition within them was really, really bad. So that left a hole in the plan. So I figured why not run another Sombra’s Clipshow? The last one went so well, let’s do it again! Except better!
