The Official Fanfiction Thread

[Digitaldreamer]

Well, I suppose since I've joined I may as well start with posting this, now shouldn't I?

 

...please don't throw things at me. I brought cookies!

 

Right...sooo once upon a time there was a girl named Digitaldreamer. This girl played a game named Psychonauts. She was happy. All was good in the Country of Digi.

 

And then the plot bunnies came. They attacked, swarming the countryside and consuming all in their path, growing larger and larger. Soon enough the bunnies had all merged into the one, the only BUNNYZILLA! Bunnyzilla proceeded to go on a rampage through the Country of Digi. After a week or so of this Digi finally decided that the only way to appease the horrific beast was to write the fic.

 

I could ramble on and on, but at it's basis the idea came from but one wish, to take Raz's background and expand on it like crazy. When I was playing the game I couldn't help but think there could have been so much more done with his family's curse by the Galochio's, as well as the whole “our family has many enemies” deal... and thus, this was spawned. We've got a fic here that's going to attempt to go deep into Raz's family history and cover everything from the reason to why the Galochio's cursed them, why Raz's dad's entire family was killed by psychics, why Raz's dad wouldn't let Raz use his powers, and probably a whole lot more that I can't be bothered to type here.

 

Granted, I will probably fail at this attempt. But I'm trying, and this is what I have so far:

 

Cursum Perficio: Six years after Raz became a Psychonaut the the nightmares started, whispers of Lili and a terrible darkness. He can never fully remember these night terrors, but he's sure of one thing...he has to get to Whispering Rock, before something awful happens...

 

It shall be long. And it shall be crazy. And yes, while it shall be a bit dark, I'm going to do my best to make sure it retains that Psychonaut-y flavour we all adore. I've got three chapters so far, and I'd be honoured if you guys would be willing to take a look, pehaps pop me a review and tell me how I'm doing.

 

I also have a quick vaguely Sasha/Milla one-shot, since I do adore those two so:

 

Of Sickness and Sunglasses: In which Sasha claims he's not sick in the least, but Milla says otherwise.

 

Er...yes...

 

...alright, I'll shut up now. You can stop throwing things.

[DarthAve]

SO YOU WROTE THAT???

 

Are you familar with 'Moondance' and 'Kissing a Fool'? Cause I wrote thosez.

[Digitaldreamer]

Erm....I...suppose it depends on which "that" you're referring to. o_o;;

 

And I've heard of them, haven't got a chance to read them yet, though I'll be sure to review when I do. *nodnod*

[Miss_Mayhem]

*Glomps Digi* Those stories rock sox that eat feet HARD!

[Klia]

Why would you delete your story?

[DarthAve]

But it's is awesome!! I should delete Mark and Tony go to Whispering Rock, because apparently nobody get's it.

[Digitaldreamer]

Awww, don't delete Elusive Insanity! I'm loving it so far!

 

If you really can't think of how to continue it, just post a notice saying you're not going to finish it. Don't delete it though, the two chapters you have still make for a pretty good read.

 

...right, okay, Imma shut up and get back to writing.

[Miss_Mayhem]

*snip*

[Digitaldreamer]

Ahhh. Well in that case it may be a good idea to write the rewrite, then delete the original and put up the rewrite. *nodnod*

 

Or you could just post the new chapters and go back and edit the old chapters whenever you feel like it. *shrugs* I know the feeling.

[Miss_Mayhem]

[Digitaldreamer]

Behold, chapter four of Cursum Perficio is up! Read on, my lovely readers, read on!

 

...Or you could just, you know, not read. That works too. But if you did and left a review, that'd be neat.

 

Here's a summary for you lucky people:

 

The attempts at working out Raz's nightmares through the brain tumbler was a total mess, but Raz and Sasha don't have time to worry about that now. One of the campers has been attacked, and she's in no condition to explain anything about her attacker. Our favorite Psychonauts have no choice but to take a look into her mind...but what will they find there?

I enjoyed the Orlando Bloom Shrine, Mini Shopping mall, and then the stowed away baby stuff. rotflmaool

[Klia]

Digtal, I just realized, I never read your story. For the longest time I was convinced that I was keeping up to date with it but I haven't even read one sentence.

 

So you get the printing treatment. Since it's so long and I only have about 10 minutes on the computer each day (thanks to my classes) I print out anything that will take me more than 10 minutes. Then I'll review each and every chapter. I'll even use my DF pen.

[Digitaldreamer]

Wow, I get the printing treatment?

 

...should I feel special or should I be scared? o.o;;

[Klia]

Scared, very, very scared.

[Digitaldreamer]

Oh dear. I quake with terror.

 

Uweeeh, I sure hope it's not too terrible...

[Klia]

  Digitaldreamer said:

Oh dear. I quake with terror.

 

Uweeeh, I sure hope it's not too terrible...

 

Good, your on. No, it just means that I'm more likely to go over each and every sentence and review it.

 

Remember, more likely. As of lately my GPA has been falling way behind and I've been swamped with homework. In fact, I'm alternating between this and math as we speak.

 

Or I speak.

[Digitaldreamer]

I'm not seriously that scared. XD A bit nervous, but I guess this will be a true test to see if my work can take the heat of the critics fire, I suppose.

 

By all means, review it however you'd like. I'm not picky or anything. If it's terrible, tell me.

[Miss_Mayhem]

Has anyone noticed that fanfiction.net is taking longer than usual to load it's pages? I'm trying to access it right now, but damn is it taking long!

[Digitaldreamer]

Aye, it's not even loading for me....strange.

[Miss_Mayhem]

I knew it wasn't just me! It loads then slaps you with a 505 erorr. And I wanted to reply to the RP! Gah, I suppose I'll hafta wait for it to clear up or something. FF can be spotty at times. There were occasions it wouldn't let me review, or upload docs.

[Digitaldreamer]

Ahhh, yes.

 

Well, on the bright side, it may be a good idea to wait for levova to post and give us the setting of our hysterical kid's mind, but if things are like this for her too she won't be able to post anyway...

 

...This is why I dislike using Fanfiction.net forums. When the pit goes down, they go with it.

[Miss_Mayhem]

They also wont let you italisize or bold or underline! That is what really gets to me. IMO, I think they should have just aquired VBulletin. VB was the first forum-program I'd ever used (on a website that seems to not exist any longer) and I absolutely loved it. I had accounts on other forums, but the actual forum program wasnt nearly as nice. That was one reason I joined RD, they use VBulletin. And FF could use it too...it's not like they cant tailor it to fit their color scheme!

[Digitaldreamer]

Ugh, no kidding. X_x That drives me nuts. -These- can only get you so far...

 

Hmmm, VBulletin, eh? I do like VBulletin so, though I'm most used to InvisionFree since that's what the forum my friend Duo and I run uses...

 

Fanfiction.net's forums are pretty bad, overall. But hey, at least they're better than the 4kids forums. Now those were/still are horrifying.

[Miss_Mayhem]

One wonders why they even tried to make their own... all that is possible is THIS and -this-. Not much else. Not good for a RP especially.
