Kind of a mixed bag. Comments welcome, I think it still needs some tweaks.

Not sure if I should stop the chapter here, or finish out the interview before starting chapter 13. Let me know what you think.

Took longer on this one. It's got a POV shift, and it took some effort to try and get that working properly.
Let me know what you think!

Just trying to keep some productivity going, given how useless I've been the past couple weeks. It's short but it's fast and the next one should also come out pretty quick.
I'd originally started writing this particular fic because it was quick and easy. I'd stopped because it was not particularly... uh... not sure how to explain. Literary? So far, I'm mostly just hitting the points of canon, though divergences are starting to stack up pret...

This was written back in 2019 when SpyXFamily came out. Someone necroed the thread on Sufficient Velocity to ask for it to be continued. I assume they'd been looking for fics since the anime just came out. It's a cute series.
Anyway, I'd never posted it on FFnet, and had quickly stopped working on it because it was honestly more of a plot bunny shitpost than a real start on a story. But I just cleaned up a bit that hadn't been posted and added it to it, so here's...

Hot, fresh, and possibly steaming. I haven't even spell checked it yet. I will be editing this and probably adding/making changes, but I've felt super bad about how long it's taken me to get this done. You deserve better, and I'm trying to do better.
That being said, this fought me like crazy and I've rewritten it like four times, which is why it's short. Next up is the big test to see if they're worth keeping as genin, which should be a part of this chapter but ...

Sorry about that, put the bookmark in the wrong place.
Also, have been talking with some other people, and I believe I'm going to be reworking a substatial amount of this fic. Not a rewrite, more a skip ahead sort of thing, getting to the real meat of the story. But not until after I get some People Lie chapters out.

Decided the original title was just too silly. So here's the new title and new chapter.
Should have finished the People Lie chapter. Should have done a number of things this past week.
Instead, I had kind of a mental meltdown early in the week that just blew everything out of the water. Sorry to those of you in the discord.
I'm just kinda lonely and whiny, sleeping badly and got a little bit sick again. Nothing major, just a sore throat, but I'...

Unicorn Fart continues to be easy to write. Banged this out in a couple hours as a break from working on People Lie. I am working on People Lie, though. Don't get me wrong, I still love the story, but it's intensely cerebral and I spend a lot of time working on wording and how to imply things.
Anyway. Here's something for you to read. Please let me know if you care about this story at all.
Hope you enjoy!

Work on People Lie continues. Slowly. Past the breaking point now but it's not ready to send out.
However, while fighting with it, I also threw away the start of that battletech fic and made some big changes. So here is the 100% new start to a Battletech AU story.
Let me know if you like it!
2022-02-16 09:42:42 +0000 UTC View PostIf you're in the discord, you may have heard me lament that I threw away a lot of work. That's why it's delayed. The re-rewrite is proceeding.
If you're not in the discord, and the danged patreon bot joiner thing isn't working again, send me, Nugar#8109, a friend request and I'll add you.
Also, some of you haven't followed me anywhere but on fanfiction.net. There's a bunch of stuff that was never posted there, so some of this may entertain you.

My groggy confusion woke Mica up inside my jacket, and he squawked and struggled to pop his head out.
Granarrik chirruped, his sides heaving against me. At first, I panicked a little, since there was no movement at my back, but a few moments later, I heard the voice of my mentor.
“Awake in there, Saras?” He was maybe a dozen feet away.
“Yeah! Yeah,” I called back.
My hands hurt, I felt achy all over, and incredibly gros...

The day that changed my life was a day I was on watch. I was about eleven and three quarters old, and I was responsible enough to be trusted with watching over some of our livestock. I had Mica by then, and together nothing got by us.
To best watch, your eyes need to be moving at all times. Look at the sky. Memorize it. Look to the field. Memorize it. Back to the sky. The clouds are always changing. But is there the distant spot of a creature? N...

I’ve always had a good memory, but more importantly, memory is a skill like any other. It can be trained.
With the ever present threat of the damned madkites, children are not let aboveground unattended. But child eyes are the clearest, and there’s too much work to do to let hands and eyes be idle.
So instead we played the Watch ...

“Hmm. I figure we’re looking at between fifteen to twenty five tons in total, but there’s definitely some rock on there that’s not ore.”
I winced. If we only got a ton of chalcopyrite out of this, at roughly three hundred pounds of sulfur, iron, and copper, it was still a massive financial windfall for a skyhold like ours. We had to get it home. And there was almost certainly a lot more than a single ton. This was a fortune. But even o...

Gran would have preferred to drop off the side, but he’s strong, and we didn’t want to alert the thing just in case it turned out to be something even more dangerous than we thought, like a diarch or worse.
It might have already seen us, it might see us soon, but if you want to survive, you stack the odds in your favor.
Hell, it could be a real danger, like a burial shroud in the process of draining the life from a roc. We’d be flyin...

We didn’t grow wheat, we have to trade for it, and we only use it for bread during holidays and feasts. But just a little bit of wheat flour, turned into gravy, really improves the usual meal.
Our basic meal is beans, if we have the time to set up a pot. Otherwise, it’s already cooked corn pone. Dense and hard. It’s usually just parched corn meal and water, with, and I mean hopefully with, some salt, some butter, and lard. Corn bread is be...

It took us the better part of an hour to pull in the birds, time in which Gran slowly flew back to the island. I mean, I know how to clean and dress animals in free fall, but it’s messy.
Very messy.
The bird I hit with the crossbow is dead in minutes, with that lingering twitch-flop thing they do lasting about ten more. The others take longer. Conrin actually used his bow on the other one I hit, putting three arrows into it point blank t...

With no sun, just a generally diffuse light that seems to come from all around, there’s no such thing as a real ‘day’ here, only what you make. And with truly endless sky, there’s always a cloud somewhere. But right here, right now, it’s clear and easy to see, at least until things are too far away and swallowed by the haze.
