Woah. Rarely I look upon thee fics anymore, but I guessed the newfound Communist regime will produce something of that caliber. My hat off to you, Rou!

Ah, well. It'll pass, with time, or, I'll get used to it. No point bitching about it anyways :P

Fuckin' commies.

Weekend communism. On Monday, we are back to capitalism as usual.

And Rou: That was awesome.

[23:40] * Gate_To_Erebus shrugs
[23:40] <Lloyd> o_o Weekend Communism?

ANNOUNCEMENT!

As of today, the KGB is located in the depths of PSL, don't disturb the Russian's, they're just doing their job.

No, actually it's Koakuma opening her bookstore.
What does she sell there?
Completed books of course, what a silly question.

KGB is a storage for all completed story-threads. Librarians are enabled to move completed threads over there. No worries about the Fanworks Listing, the links on there work just as well even if the threads are moved around, so you can always access them from there as usual.

We don't have to pay anything to take out books do we? BV

No worries, the KGB already knows your account information and will take care of the necessary payments on its own.  :derp:

!?

Wait when did you...

That reminds me, I should probably finish judging the end-of-summer contest by the winter solstice.

Which is, like, tomorrow (actually more like in two days).

... well, if I'm lying in bed sick, I might as well put that time to good use!

I was hoping to make use of that wonderful loophole you'd stitched into it... dawww. Oh well~ Better luck next time

I was gonna make a joke about that, but you ended up sick so I felt it would be wrong to be picky there.  Still it would be nice to see the outcome (and inevitably reread all the entries.)

As for other stickies that might be trimmed, there's the wiki fiction reorg.  Not sure if that went anywhere, or if it just faded away.  (Though if you want to revive it I'm willing to be drafted.  It'd be something interesting to help boost the new wiki).

Oh my goodness gracious, you're right. =o

After I'm done with this, at least. This would be the perfect thing to get the wiki away from wikia, what with new content and all!

Oh heh, so we're gonna do the reorg after all? Good, since I wanted to remove that sticky ages ago and was told to leave it because we're gonna do it at some point :V

Are you looking for a finished work, or does it not matter?

Naturally, I suggest anything by myself, but that's because I like to shamelessly promote my own work.

Autobiographies of Interesting Characters has a bunch of short chapters, one per character covered, and is here:  http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7685.0.html

(But both stories have links in my sig).

For the full library of works here and elsewhere, with descriptions, go here:
http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,4840.0.html

EDIT: Ryuu and Hanged Hourai, out of curiosity, which of your stories would you suggest?

I know you two have written a lot, but the library link isn't particularly easy to track by author, and is about a month from it's last update. So which of your stories would you suggest?

If you're looking for something long I'd hunt through the stuff in Koakuma's.  Roukan, Ammy and I both have some solid longer completed works that I can recommend without hesitation, but I know there's some good older stuff (and probably new stuff that just finished) that I just can't pull off the top of my head.

If you're looking for simple shorts off the top of my head I'd suggest

http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,5014.0.html
What Winter Left Behind.  My first and in my opinion possibly my best short

http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,5471.0.html
The Journal of Patchouli's Loyal Assistant.  Coin Spire's got a very unique style here that I really like.

http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7228.0.html
Wriggle on Stage.  Ryuu does an interesting team 9.

There's of course a whole bunch more that I'm missing due to forgetfulness, personal preference and because I'm putting out stories I know are done.  I can only encourage wandering the library in general and finding the authors that best suit your own tastes.

Edit: Fixed my links.

ummm I guess Wriggle on Stage!! like Iced said

if you like parsee, I hear good things about Girl in the Cave(though I'm not done with it yet)

and my shorts thread is my shorts thread, but I tend to be really polarized between super fluff and violently ripping people apart



...oh wait those are my only three threads

EDIT: oh right I forgot about Palaquin Ship's Captain's Log, which is pretty low content-wise but it's enjoyable if you want something quick and simple

That leads to Journal of Patchy's Assistant.

White Rose is for people who don't have any pressing things to do for the next three to five days, depending on reading speed :V

My own recommendation should be relatively obvious. If Rou does not toot his own horn for Rising Star well enough, then I will do it for him.

Also, anything Usually Dead writes is good.

Are there any good stories about Patchouli? I've already read usuallydead's requiem bibliophilic and "The journal of Patchouli's loyal assistant" by Coin Spire, and I haven't really seen much else.

Hm... so I'm back.

/gets slapped for abandonning his works

Ouch... anyways...

/gets slapped again

I'm thinking, I'm very bad at writing series, the story poped up and got longer, to the point my hands can't keep up with my mind anymore. It's much better to write one-shots, but you know what? It keeps running in my head to a 200 episodes anime. Is there anyway to stop that? I love writing, but the only way I can complete my fic is typing non-stop. If I stop for a nap, a meal, or even a leak, my head goes ahead and when I sit back to the computer, the story is way behind my imagination. It's a pain to re-create it in my head again, usually because I tend to rush...

White Rose is, at the moment, two months shy of its two-year anniversary.

Even if it's slow going because you have so much stuff you want to get to already and you're impatient with all the early stuff you have to do, go for it. The buildup is hella rewarding.

I know how you feel, though. There are some parts in White Rose I would have liked to skip with just "and then they all arrived in Hokkai after traveling a lot" or something. God, why can't I get to the fun part already?
