As a heads up, I have actually found some time to work on the next part of this arc. Problem is there's a lot happening in it -- enough that I can't feasibly break it into more parts without causing a ton of confusion, so it's turning into two or three chapters in one. Add on some intensive editing to make sure I don't dig myself into a hole and my busy college schedule and we get this gigantic wait period, so sorry.

So dC/dt is above all else a means for me to world build. It's arguably the last step before I'm confidant enough to try writing and maybe even publishing non-fan-fiction. To that end, I've made a Patreon account. It'll give me an excuse to address things I may not be able to in the main story, and it'll let me world build more. It'll also hopefully net me actual money so I can afford to pay patronage to artists and writers I like. Maybe pay

Sorry for the taking awhile on the next chapter of dC/dt folks, but I have 4 project based classes this semester -- 2 of them are production studios, meaning the entire class is one big extra important project. Thus when I'm not doing work for them I'm procrastinating on doing work for them in an attempt to not freak out at the work load. Sometimes that involves writing but more often than not it requires something that needs less thought like games or reading or walking, so I'm kinda falling

This week was great. I got a new dC/dt chapter up, another chapter is done and starting editting, and I got about 10-15 or so likes meaning I was actually pulling ahead of my desired 10:1 ratio which I know is unreasonable in the long run, but it's more encouraging than the goal of getting featured in the feature box as it's hard to say exactly how close I am to that. Then I got two more dislikes upsetting the balance again so the obvious and completely rational reaction is a slow dramatic

Next mini-arcs an Applejack one, and I can't have an Applejack arc without friction from two differing views of honesty. I was reviewing the story to see how many times I used the word lie because I wanted to make sure it held up to the way changelings think of lies. Funnily enough, almost every use of the word lie has been by a pony (or draconeques in one case) or a poor translation of the Changeling language.

It's kind of surreal how many of the little milestones I've set for myself I've met with dC/dt. I've dabbled in contributing to the fandom, but never truly felt confidant in calling myself a contributor. And while I still only think of myself as a minor insignificant contributor at best this story has surpassed all my expectations. It is the one reason I can call myself a contributor, no matter how small. I deeply appreciate all of you who showed any amount of support towards it because of that.

So I have the next chapter done, and all that's left to this mini-arc should be a resolution chapter. That being said, this chapter is not just the climax of this mini-arc, but the climax for the whole Moving In phase. The tone is different from most of the story because of that, and I'd like to make sure it's not so different as to be jarring or to ruin the story.

I wish to ask the readers of dC/dt whether or not I should remove the comedy tag. I make a good number of what I consider jokes in the story, but:

A) In my experience, my sense of humor can be very... odd... sometimes. What I think of as a joke may very well simply not register on others.
