Oh, well.

Hadn't checked the site for a while. I've mostly been blithering on Discord, and elsewhere shutting up, signal boosting, and spreading moeyns around since I'm fairly white, very privileged, and have minimal platform/audience anyway. Buuut, what with the combination of greater-world and fandom-local current events, I guess at the least this is its own form of signal-boost in this particular microcosm.

Banner Style Update · 6:53am May 28th, 2015

Banner style updated to what I think is a nice state. Front page was easy, but everything else was a pain because that new 'author bar' is really weird. I'm trying out an 'auto-hide' function for it, since I think it's pretty obtrusive otherwise.

...could use a 'dark theme'. Eh. knighty pls.

Banner Style Update · 2:53pm Jan 5th, 2015

Well, it took me way too long, but I've updated my style to play nicer with Sollace's Fimfiction Advanced using the new tag he added in his recent update. It changes the action on hover to be more like the default translucent look for my style...I think it looks okay? If

Blah blah blah, knighty pls. I missed banners. I tried the simple Style that PiercingSight posted here, but I didn't think it really worked well with user- and story-page headers and such. Then someone pointed out the (often rather crummy) backgrounds of said headers (very blown-up versions of the user avatar and story art), and I

The Mythology of Man of Steel · 10:17am Sep 12th, 2014

I wish more/any people had liked Man of Steel. I missed most of the first part of the movie when I saw it the first time, and didn't really pick up on the background I did see, but I recently DVRed it, and I've watched it three times since then. Part of it is that the soundtrack has embedded itself in my brain, but it's also the story. While the main plot had its issues, there's a whole mess of interesting space for speculation and mythological worldbuilding based on what little history of

Next up for Advent: a fight scene! This is the first small-scale fight I've ever written (I've written some ship action in Trailblazer and an abortive skirmish with a Hydra for Flashpoint). We'll see how this goes... :rainbowdetermined2: Things are coming to a head.

Random Ideas · 10:52am Apr 25th, 2014

So, I just played Ys I & II and The Oath in Felghana, and now of course I want to write a Ys crossover. :applejackconfused: I feel like you could do something neat if you yanked Adol and one pony from their world into a completely different one. I dunno, it's all vague ideas floating around that will probably go into a file and then never see the light of day. :ajbemused:
