(Cue Led Zeppelin - Immigrant Song)
Kanius' A/N: Hello and I apologize for the delay since January. These couple of months have been slightly hectic. My writing energy went straight to catching up writing Cross Generations. VA has only been updated twice and I've fallen behind that (due to Cross Gen, real world work, and some lack of interest), but I intend to pick up on VH and VA. After all, there's just a few segments left of VH to complete. We're so far up to the 11th Segment.
All right, not to keep you waiting any longer, here's the long awaited Segment 9!
Ford1114's A/N: Welcome back to another chapter of Valkyrie Homecoming. Brunhilde and her group return to Asgard to find more stuff happening. The first trailer of Thor: Ragnarok has already been shown. This and Spider-Man: Homecoming are the meaning to this fanfic.

"So, to become an Avenger, are there, like, trials, or an interview?"
"Just don't do anything I would do. And definitely don't do anything I wouldn't do. There's a little grey area in there, and that's where you operate."

(Cue Kingsglaive Final Fantasy XV OST - for Rain)
A Croatian folk song is heard with clapping in the continuing celebrations. It is now close to nightfall in the realm of the Aesir/Vanir. The Asgardian Nightlife is here. A portal emerges with Brunhilde & Seadramon, Rika & Renamon, Skuld, Mist, Reginleif, and Hela arriving back to the party. Everyone is glad that they expect their return so well.
"Thank god we make it just in time!" Reginleif cried out.
Brunhilde lets out her thoughts, "Man, am I glad to be out of that place! I thought we'd be stuck down there!"
"We did take a few detours along the way." Seadramon concurred.
"We're going have a lot to tell Takato, Himura, and the others." Rika stated.
"Inumon and our kids will be happy to see me again." Renamon added.
Mist looks visibly upset.
Reginleif notices, "Hey, are you ok?"
"Just fine." Mist muttered.
Reginleif questions, "You're not rattled after seeing Grimhilde, are you?"
Mist scoffs, "Not at all. I've already severed my ties with her for good. Let's move forward."
Skuld turns to Hela, "Order should already be restored in the Underworld, right? No need for us to go down there?"
"No, those evil souls will be placed under maximum security. They won't be causing anymore trouble." Hela answered to her daughter.
"Good. I'm glad I could make that piece of shit piss himself again." Skuld stated.
Brunhilde rolls her eyes before moving on, "Oook, can we get back to the party?! I want to see what we've missed since then! Kouichi!"
Brunhilde runs off to find Kouichi Kimura.
Seadramon follows her, "Wait for me, Kotori!"
Renamon said to Rika, "Come, Rika. Let's go."
"Right." Rika nodded.
It wasn't long as Brunhilde & Seadramon and Rika & Renamon are reunited with their friends. Skuld reconvenes with Philippe. Hela returns to sit with her lover and the other Norse deities. Mist and Reginleif reunite with their Erinye sisters.
"Whoa, wait a minute? You mean all that happened at LA?!" Brunhilde said in surprise.
"Yeah, it was some movie premiere hosted by the Three Fiends." Kouichi answered about Resurrection B.
"Where have you been, Kotori?" Takato asked.
Seadramon answers for Brunhilde with a certain lampshade, "Behind the times, but hey certain writers got sidetracked."
"Sidetracked?" Guilmon blinked.
Renamon sighs, "They were distracted with real life situations, Guilmon."
"Oh, I see now!" Guilmon realized.
"Anyway, so it was some big bad guy party. Not surprised we weren't invited." Rika said.
Himura then explains, "No, but some of our friends were, including Tai (DF-616) and his crew, Yugi's group, and some others."
"Don't worry you didn't miss much except bad guy ego stroking." Inumon commented.
"Thankfully after that movie premiere finished, our friends left before the bad guys nearly tore down the place." Henry said.
Terriermon groans, "Aw man, we should've had the party down there! I mean, you can't top Hollywood!"
Brunhilde sticks out tongue and drops a thumb down, "Pffft, Hollywood, Hollyweed! We have a much more kick-ass party than those losers! Check it out!"
The Tamers, the Valkyries, the Erinyes, and the Norse deities scan the Asgard party gathering. Many of the same guests are still there, but new faces are now present.
"C'mon, let's go and meet the new guests!" Brunhilde beckoned.
Apparently, Noctis and his friends are not around due to heading back to their journey even before the Underworld events began, and with little time to say goodbye to Brunhilde. It would seem that by this point, Noctis' journey has been concluded with a cost. Indeed, Ford has already showed his friends FFXV on the PS4 much early. Lightning also left the party as well for unknown reasons, though it's likely tie-in Noctis' departure.
Of course, the audience told Brunhilde's group what has happened during YYGDM/VA's Nine Realms arc (Chapters 7 - 8) with Queen Beryl and Kuiiza leading the prisoners in Niflheim, Alec revealing himself as the reincarnation of Helgi Hundingsbane, the Lokar are getting Ymir's armor, the deities/associates unexpectedly help out the heroes, finding and turning the three Underworld rulers (Hela/Hades/Anubis) back to normal from animals, the Valkyries gain their connections to the sentient Yggdrasil, and Brunhilde revealing her ancestry as half-Frost Giant. Before that, the theater screen showed the Intermission: Brunhilde and Siegfried. Now, in the Nine Realm World Tour phase (Chapter 9 onward), the YYGDM!Lokar are recruiting evil warriors and gods for the coming Second Ragnarok, they have already recruited Nidhogg in Niflheim and Utgard-Loki of Jotunheim (Who the YYGDM-01 version is a ruthless Frost Giant).
Of course, there are more showing up to the party: Seto & Lyn(costumes respectively: Master with Eyes of Blue/Priestess with Eyes of Blue). Lyn already gave birth to Helio & Kisara and brings the two babies along. Baby Helio wears a shirt of Neo BEUD, and baby Kisara wears a shirt of both Blue Eyes Chaos MAX and Deep Eyes White. They are surprise to see Sasha/Skuld, recalling their meeting three years back when Sasha first awoken as a Norn.
There's Sailor Mercury, Sailor Mars (costume: Hrist (Valkyrie Profile)), Sailor Venus (costume: Silmeria (Valkyrie Profile)), Sara Shinobu (costume: Tracer (Overwatch)), Scott Montgomery (costume: Montgomery Scott (Star Trek)), Penny Banks (costume: Princess Moana), and Yusuke/Kazuma (both cosplay as Keita Amano (Yokai Watch)) & ShineInumon (costume: Whisper (Yokai Watch))/BlackRenamon (costume: Jibanyan (Yokai Watch)).
And of course the other Tamers (Kenta & MarineAngemon, Suzie & Lopmon, Ryo & Cyberdramon, Alice & Rottweilermon, and Ai/Mako & Impmon in making it a complete Tamers reunion for the 15th anniversary (2001 – 2016) alongside its ending (2002 – 2017).
Most surprisingly are the Kozmo Duel Monsters group: Kozmo Farmgirl (cosplay as Ahsoka Tano) and her robotic dog, Kozmo Tincan (cosplay as R2-D2), Kozmo Strawman (cosplay as C3PO), and Kozmo Scaredy Lion (cosplay as Chewbacca). Yes, Kozmo Goodwitch sent them to this party in knowing about the wondrous Norse myths. Kozmo Farmgirl is seen as the Akane Tsunemori of YYGDM, even though the Kozmo Duel Monsters don't exist in the canon YYGDM-01 dimension.
Kozmo Farmgirl gives a fangirl expression, "Oh wow! Look at this place guys!"
Kozmo Tincan makes beeping noises. Farmgirl's dog is sniffing around the place.
"It's certainly a cordial invite with what you and Tincan said." Kozmo Strawman stated.
"I know, not only do we get to see Norse gods and people, but I gotta meet two of the Founders named Brunhilde and Takato to show my first impressions!" Kozmo Farmgirl cried out.
Kozmo Scaredy Lion simply grunts like Chewbacca.
Just then, Ruby Rose arrives and sees the Kozmo group.
"You guys look like Star Wars!" Ruby Rose squealed and turns to Kozmo Farmgirl, "And you look similar as me, such as we both have dogs!"
Kozmo Farmgirl grins, "Hey, we have in common in similarities, care to show us around the place?"
Ruby Rose nods, "Sure thing!"
The real Oberon and Titania are spotted, Oberon dresses as Thranduil (The Hobbit). Puck is also seen that he dresses up as Puck (Gargoyles). The friendly Frost Giants from the Nine Realms arc in VA are spotted. People are seen playing instruments in tie-in the song playing. A group of Asgardians cosplay as the characters from the Heroes of Olympus: Jason, Piper, Leo, Frank, and Hazel. An Irish dragon called the Oillipheist is seen breathing fire in cooking food for guests. A lesbian couple is seen making out passionately consists of a 'lipstick lesbian' light elf (costume: Alolan Ninetales) and a 'butch lesbian' dark elf (costume: Alolan Sandslash), the light elf wraps her arms around her lover's neck, while the dark elf holds her back with her right arm and fonds her butt with her left hand. The lipstick light elf's appearance has blond hair whose length is reached to her shoulders, and has heterochromia eyes (one green on the right and purple on the left). The butch dark elf's white hairstyle is tomboyish. A half Frost/Fire Giant (costume: Frosty the Snowman) is seen. A half Dwarf and Mountain Giant (costume: Gobber (How to Train Your Dragon)) is seen. A group of Asgardians are playing pin the tail of the donkey of a large drawing of none other than YYGDM-01!Mist. The picture shows a nickname for her: (M)otherfucker(I)mmoral(S)hi(T), alongside four angry faces (one of them bears sharp teeth). Someone is showing people two drawings of Brunhilde sitting on her throne akin to FFXV and Game of Thrones, and a fight between YYGDM and Corner Mists. Carmen and the Lann cosplayer have gotten acquainted more in having a positive moment in beginning to accidentally hold each other's hands.
At a huge and long dinner table, besides the food and drinks serve back in past chapters, the Norns have also ordered French food delivery in preparations for dinner: Pissaladiere (French pizza), Steak frites (also originated from Belgium), Mille-feuille, various flavors of Macarons, Escargots, Ratatouille, and Frog Legs. Most of all, the Aesir preps the sole tradition that they eat in every generation: Saehrimnir, the delicious boar with limitless meat killed every night to be eaten by many guests and revived every next day.
Having suppressed Skuld, Sasha has a pleasant conversation with Seto and Lyn. She shakes both Kisara and Helio's hands.
"Their skirts are so cute!" Sasha cried out in happiness.
Philippe compliments, "Yeah, they wouldn't be Kaiba's kids if they weren't wearing Blue-Eye themed shirts."
"Aren't they? I named our son Helio and Seto named our daughter Kisara." Lyn explained.
"Hiii!" Sasha is playing with Kisara and Helio.
"They'll grow up to be good kids." Philippe smiled.
"Spoiled kids, but yeah they're our spoiled kids." Seto replied.
Lyn nods, "Yep! But let's not spoil them too hard."
Seto talks to Sasha, "So, how is your family's business been doing?"
"Doing well. I'm still expected to help run it with them in hopes I'll take their place." Sasha answered.
"Have you decided if you will?" Seto asked.
Sasha turns her head in answering, "No, not yet I'm afraid."
Philippe then asks more questions, "Hey, where are your brothers, Lyn? Max and Sam? Aren't they supposed to be here with Amaya and Koori?"
Lyn nods, "They've moved into the future with Amaya and Koori. It was a hard goodbye, but they made their choice and as long as they're happy."
"I understand that." Philippe stated.
"They'll still drop by every now and then with the Neo Senshi, but their new home is in Crystal Tokyo's future." Lyn answered.
"They've decided their future. Let's now worry about ours, Lyn." Seto accepted.
"I know." Lyn agreed.
"Yes, we have a party still going on and we're glad you four can make it." Sasha smiled.
"Sure. This beats that lame villains party at Grauman's Egyptian Theatre." Seto thankfully said.
"Man, we did dodge a bullet with that one." Philippe chuckled.
Moon and Jupiter converse with Mercury, Mars, and Venus.
"Hold on, Mercury, so Daiki gave that cyborg girlfriend a name?" Moon asked.
Mercury nods, "Yes, he named her Psyche, which in Greek means 'soul'."
"I recall he used the Soul Jewel to give her life. So that makes sense." Mars said.
"And that's humanized her from being a doll." Jupiter remarked.
Venus smiles, "Good on your son, Mercury. I bet he and Psyche are rockin' it back in the future!"
Mercury sweatdrops, "Well yes, if you put it that way."
"Where's Vega?" Moon wondered.
"He couldn't make it, but he told me to tell y'all to celebrate in his place." Mercury answered.
Jupiter grins, "Oh, he doesn't have to tell us twice."
"We're getting fricking wasted tonight." Venus smirked.
Mars scolds Venus, "Ahem, let's not."
Just then, Kairyu the sea dragon appears next to Mercury.
"Psyche. Now that name beings back memories." Kairyu speaks out.
"Really? What do you mean?" Mercury asked him.
"I know that name during the Tiamat War." Kairyu answered.
"Tiamat War?" Moon wondered.
"Don't skimp out on details. Tell us." Jupiter persuaded.
Kairyu answers before shouting out, "Perhaps another time. Oh look, over there! Isn't that Odin?!"
The Senshi quickly turn around as Kairyu sneaks off. Mercury turns around and stops him.
"Awww." Kairyu groaned.
"You'll tell us, but how about a drink first?" Mercury asked.
Kairyu blinks, "You drink? You don't like alcohol, though."
Mercury offers water to Kairyu as they both drink together.
"That's our Mercury, as straight-edge as you can get." Jupiter grinned.
Venus deviously thinks, "I gotta get Mercury piss drunk tonight."
Rota and Nick (who is already freed) are seen having meet up with Penny. Needless to say, Penny gives a ticked off look.
Rota (who is in her 'Vika' persona just like Sasha controls Skuld in her calmed state) gives a flirtatious, spunky smile as if she's trolling Penny, "Hi there! Your that sister of my boyfriend, how did you and Scotty get here?"
Just then, in Rota's mind, a voice speaks in her mind. This is 'Inner Rota', the persona seen back in VH Segment 6 just like 'Inner Skuld' is Skuld in her sadistic and angered states.
"Oooh, that bitch likes to give a fight with me? She can give a fuck of all I fuckare (this word combines fuck and care)!"
Nick watches Mercury and the Senshi. He recalls teaming with Sailor Mercury and Cyber Mercury. Being a water elemental/bender, he aided the Mercury duo in battle much like their YYGDM counterparts.
Penny eyes Nick, "What'ca looking at, Nickel?"
"Hey eyes on me, Nickel." Rota turns his head to look her in the eyes.
Penny shouts to Rota, "Hey, don't treat my brother like that! I've heard from Carmen what you've been doing to him!"
Rota scoffs, "Yeah, what of it, bitch?"
Penny gets in Rota's face, "Look, I know all about your crazy other self, I ain't scared of you!"
Rota eye rolls, "Yeah, and I should be scared of someone dressed like Moana?"
Scott tries to hold Penny back, "Let's not start a fight, ok, Penny?"
Penny and Rota get in each other's faces.
"Bitch!" Rota shouted.
"Slut!" Penny shouted back.
Nick whimpers, "Gals, can we behave one evening?!"
After Scott and Nick pull apart Penny from Rota, cooler head prevails.
"So, Scott, I heard Playdate's got a name?" Nick asked.
Scott answers, "Yeah, her real name is Molly and she modified a SOUJA unit, calling him Rover."
"Cool, she has her obedient robot dog!" Nick cried out.
Penny gives her thought, "Well, that brat's not annoying like she used to be. She's cool with us."
"Yeah, though she's still hanging out with the Rogues, she's a friend and someone we can turn to if we need a techie for help." Scott stated.
Penny then knows, "My YYGDM self has to put up with her. I hear things are still kinda heated between my counterpart and Playdate's."
"Ow, that sucks for her." Nick felt bad.
Rota snickers devilishly, "Yeah, sucks to be you, Penny-weeny!"
Penny snaps at Rota, "Eff off! It sucks to be the other me!"
"Right." Rota said.
"Oh, and did you guys know Lee has a girlfriend?!" Nick shouted out.
"That guy has a girlfriend?" Penny wondered.
Scott then said, "Wonder who the lucky girl is."
"Or, rather unlucky girl." Penny glanced at Rota if it's something similar.
Rota smirks, "Heh, maybe we should meet this Lee guy, Nicky?"
"Um, no, we don't. I think you'll give him nightmares." Nick answered.
Rota grins, "That's my intention."
Penny gives a grim look to Rota, "You're one demented sicko."
Rota glares at Penny, "You don't know even half of it."
Inner Rota internally laughing, "Hehehehe, more like she don't even know the fraction of it!"
(Cue Final Fantasy XV OST - 67. Starlit Waltz)
Oberon and Titania are seen talking to Gondul.
"Hmm, we have a chance to properly chat, Valkyrie of Light." Oberon greeted. "You once defended that village from those meddlesome humans with the guidance of Anansi. Perhaps a proposal for the future as I wonder if you like to be Alfheim's guardian?"
Titania smiles, "The Elven light brings grace to yours."
Gondul feels unsure and speechless about this and is given deep thought.
Back with the Inner Senshi.
"Hey, you notice we're not the only five-girl teams here?" Moon asked a question.
"Well yeah, there's Brunhilde and her Valkyries." Venus said.
Jupiter adds, "Team RWBY."
"And Mist and her Erinyes." Mars finished.
Mercury said, "Speaking of, I heard our old enemies and a few Monsters of the Week appeared in Valkyrie Advent's Underworld part."
"And our YYGDM selves were there to see it happen." Moon saw it.
"The Valkyries even had the chance to fight the Shitennou. Jupiter then freed the Shitennou afterwards." Mars mentioned.
"The Witches 5 even returned." Venus remembered them.
"Not mention the slain Rajita generals. All the bad guys were led by Beryl and Kuiiza." Jupiter recalled the main cause.
"But not every type of Monster of the Week appeared. The Phages were conspicuous by their absence." Mercury remembered them.
"Ugh probably for the best." Mars groaned.
"Geez, by then, bad guys weren't even trying anymore. I mean, Phages? C'mon, how lame could you get?" Venus shook her head in disbelief.
"I mean Sailor Chef?" Jupiter mentioned one.
"Sailor Teacher?" Mercury mentioned another.
"Sailor Director?" Mars mentioned a third.
"Sailor Guts?" Venus shudders with disgust.
"Just shows how silly our '90s series was." Moon said about the past.
"Well thankfully, the need for monsters of the week plots have lessened since then." Mercury said in relief.
"But they do add some fun aspects. So, they're not always bad." Venus admitted.
"Maybe." Jupiter agreed.
Moon orders, "C'mon, girls! Let's liven up and greet the new guests!"
Mars sarcastically said, "Lead the way, boss."

The Tamers gather for a group photo to commemorate their series' 15 anniversary. Yes, they've even managed to get Kenta & MarineAngemon, Suzie & Lopmon, Ryo & Cyberdramon, Alice & Rottweilermon, Ai/Mako & Impmon.
"Say cheese, guys!" Takato smiled.
"Mozzarella!" Everyone else hollered.
The Tamers get in a few photos for their fans and friends.
Terriermon ask, "How were my ears?"
"Floppy as ever." Henry commented.
"Our picture looked great, Lopmon!" Suzie smiled.
Impmon scoffs, "I demand a retake! One pic had me with my eyes closed!"
"These came out better than I thought." Himura commented.
"No kidding. Big props to the camera guy." Kazu stated.
Kenta chuckles, "Heh, it was nothing guys. I made sure to buy the best quality camera for this occasion."
"Hey, Kenta, you know she's here? And you know who I'm talking about." Rika warned.
Kenta notices Mist and frowns. "Oh yeah, how could I forget my counterpart finding out YYGDM!Mist kissed Takato and manipulated him."
"Well don't worry, our Mist seems to be on her best behavior and won't start trouble for us again." Rika reassured.
"You better be right." Kenta hoped so.
"What are you two chatting about?" Takato arrive to their commotion.
"Nothing." Rika and Kenta replied of not mentioning Mist.
xxxxx
Elsewhere in the party, Yusuke/Kazuma & ShineInumon/BlackRenamon are going to meet with Hina.
"Hey, remember the campsite thing we did?" Kazuma asked.
Yusuke answers, "Yeah and we talked about the Thor movies!"
"Our other selves talked about being excited to see the first Thor movie." Kazuma said in comparison.
"Yeah, because the first Thor movie didn't come out for them yet." Yusuke said.
"Hey, you want to get something to eat, Yusuke?" ShineInumon interjected.
Yusuke nods, "Sure, let's go!"
BlackRenamon sighs, "Don't make pigs out of yourselves."
"I get sick seeing them eat so much. Man, where's Hina? She's missing out." Kazuma wondered.

A group of friendly green-eyed Frost Giants (unlike the malevolent ones seen in most Norse fiction, including the Thor movies) sit at a table. They have a pleasant chat with Brunhilde before she leaves the area.
xxxxx
(Cue The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug – Thrice Welcome)
An unexpected welcome arrives as Himura & Inumon talk to the Dwarf, Regin, who is Siegfried's adopted father and brother of Fafnir (making the dragon Siegfried's 'step uncle' he once slain).
Regin snickers, "Well, what do we have here? You must be the reincarnation of Sigurd, who's commonly named Siegfried." Turns to Inumon, "And you brought alongside a mutt of yours." Turns to Himura, "And looking for this?"
Regin then surprisingly shows Himura and Inumon the legendary sword none other than Gram (known as the Balmung)!
Himura is surprised, "T-That's the sword Hela gave me to use on Kotori! That's Gram!"
"Also known as Balmung. Here." Regin hands it to Himura.
Himura looks at and brandishes the sword.
"Wow, it's really Gram!" Inumon gazed and turns to Regin, "But what's your business with Himura?"
"I'm his past incarnation's adoptive father and brother to Fafnir." Regin introduced.
"WHAT?!" Himura and Inumon both yelled.
Himura blabbers, "You're my… I mean, Siegfried's stepfather and Fafnir's brother?!"
"Yes, and Fafnir would be your past self's 'step uncle'." Regin added.
Himura facepalms, "Oh geez, mythology can be so 'effed up."
Regin laughs, "I know it's messed it, isn't it?! By the way, I saw the Intermission: Brunhilde and Siegfried story take. It was ok. What did you think?"
Himura adds. "Well, it refreshed some memories, but thing is I prefer the way Siegfried was handled in Corner. I actually got aid from Odin finding Gram. And Siegfried actually got more to do in the final conflict. Sure Siegfried was turned into a Lokar soldier, but he got more to do. And Siegfried and Brunhilde's story in our universe did its own take and didn't fully adapt the story."
Inumon concurs. "Yeah, I mean the YYGDM version is fine. I just don't think origin stories are needed all the time."
Himura further adds. "Additionally, I liked the final confrontation happening in Ragnarok. To me, there was a more epic feel to that than in YYGDM where it happened outside a castle."
Regin shrugs. "Well, I have no preference myself. Though since we're all in this Cornerverse, I'll be biased and say the Corner version is better!"
Himura and Inumon concur with him. "Amen to that!"
A lone boar named Hildisvini is seen snorting while wandering around, he is Freya's boar. Just then, he surprisingly sees Gullinbursti.
Hildisvini squeals, "Brother, is that you?!"
Brokk and Eitri sees this reunion in distance.
"Well look what we have here, brother." Eitri said.
Brokk responds, "Aye, our creation meeting the other boar."
"I can't believe this! It's you, Hildi!" Gullinbursti squeals happily to see his brother again.
(Cue Final Fantasy XV OST - The Niflheim Empire)
Then, a Dwarf named Alberich (known as Andvari) (costume: Ardyn Izunia (Final Fantasy XV)), the creator of Andvaranaut is seen. Three Lokar generals, Gunnar (costume: Ravus (Final Fantasy XV)), Hagen (costume: Glauca (Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV)), and a female general named Sanngrior (costume: Aranea Highwind (Final Fantasy XV)) make their appearances. A group of Lokar Soldiers finally show up behind the Lokar trio and dress up as Magitek Infantry (FFXV). Mist recognizes Gunnar, and both Brunhilde and Himura begin to recall him.
Sanngrior coolly smirks, "Looks like we're here, boys."
Gunnar greets to Mist, "It's been such a long time, Gudrun."
"Yes it has, Gunnar." Mist replied to her brother.
Brunhilde figures out, "Hold on, I think I recognize you."
"Oh look, it's Brunhilde's reincarnation." Alberich stated and turns to Gunnar, "Seeing you triggered more of her past memories."
"Ooh, this won't end well." Sanngrior sardonically remarked.
Himura interjects and confronts Gunnar, "You're the one who gave my past incarnation, Siegfried, that potion to make him forget about Brunhilde!"
Brunhilde retorts to Gunnar, "And you disguised yourself as Siegfried!"
Gunnar replies, "Oh yes, Mist and I remember our elaborate plan."
"And it worked to near perfection." Mist explained, "You disguise as Siegfried and win over Brunhilde while I take the real Siegfried for myself and take him to Asgard. And then I gave Loki's army free entry into Asgard. And you guys know the rest of the story."
"Then, my past self saw through Gunnar's BS and headed back." Brunhilde realized.
"Only to see Siegfried die and your past self stupidly threw herself on the pyre." Mist added the sentence.
Himura urged but resists, "A part of me wants to ring your neck, but that was the past. Tonight it's about celebrations."
"But I wanted to see some drama unfold." Sanngrior commented.
"I don't." Gunnar replied to the female Lokar general.
"But make no mistake we'll never forget this." Brunhilde warned.
"Gee, don't we sound pleasant." Gunnar backs off to Brunhilde, "And for the record, I enjoyed your past self's company. She was quite nice."
"She's not me. I'm hardly nice to bad guys." Brunhilde answered about her past identity.
"I'm not a bad guy now." Gunnar said.
"True, but I've got my eye on you." Brunhilde glared.
"Hey, lay off my, brother. He's too dorky these days to be a bad guy." Mist interjected.
Gunnar groans, "Oh, that's mean, sis."
"I'm just speaking the truth." Mist remarked.
Gondul sees Hagen and needless to say, she is not happy.
"YOU!" Gondul greatly shouted.
"Oh, someone doesn't sound happy." Alberich observed.
Hagen sees Gondul walking up to him. She grabs him by the scruff of his collar.
"Hey, nice to see you, too, Gondul!" Hagen grinned.
"You think I'll forget what you did to my past self?!" Gondul clenches her fist, "This is my way to avenge her!"
Hagen pleads, "It's in the past, Gondul! I'm sorry for conspiring with Loki and Mist!"
"You get no second chances." Gondul gave a death glare.
Just then, Sigrun stops Gondul.
"That's enough. This is a celebration not a fight ring. Let it go." The Storm Valkyrie pleaded.
Gondul grits, "But…"
"Your friend's got a point. This is not a place to fight." Hagen agreed.
Sigrun manages to calm Gondul, who rears her fist away. Gondul sighs and turns away from Hagen. Hagen fixes his collar and watches her leave.
"I hope we can get along these days. I mean, if Mist and Brunhilde can start mending their differences, shouldn't we?" Hagen asked.
Gondul stops and sighs, "Maybe we'll take this slowly."
Sigrun kisses Gondul, "That's a start."
"Thank you, Gondul." Hagen stated.
Finally, a volcanic black wyvern Digimon named Volcanicdramon (costume: Meteor Black Comet Dragon (Yugioh)) makes his appearance. He is searching for a chosen Tamer taken to be his partner, by the looks of it, he gives his eyes to none other than Mist.
Volcanicdramon shouts, "You there! Are you the one I've been looking for?"
Mist sees the dragon Digimon and ask, "Who are you?"
Volcanicdramon introduces, "I'm your partner Digimon Volcanicdramon. Did you not get my messages?"
"Wait…" Mist takes out her Norse Phone and checks her messages, "Ah, you're the one called MeteorBlackC0met?!"
"Yeah, so you got my messages!" Volcanicdramon bellowed.
"Yeah, but I deleted most of the messages. I thought you were just some internet troll trying to ask me out on a date." Mist admitted.
Volcanicdramon gawks, "Oh, what I meant by 'partner', I didn't mean romance!"
Mist turns to Brunhilde for help, "You have more experience with Digimon. What do I do?"
"Take the Digivice he gives you. Treat it like a trial run. If it doesn't work out, it just doesn't." Brunhilde answered.
Mist shrugs, "Fine. So, Volcanicdramon, right?"
"Yes, correct, Lady Adora." Volcanicdramon replied.
Mist takes the Digivice from Volcanicdramon and examines it, "Consider this partnership a trial run."
Volcanicdramon bows, "You won't be disappointed."
"Geez, I never imagined she'd gain a Digimon. She better treat him well." Brunhilde sees a comparison between herself.
"I think it'll work out well for them." Seadramon reassured.
(End theme)
Then, the Asgardian Messenger seen back in Segment 6 arrives.
"All Valkyries and Erinyes, please report to the dressing room for the party's surprise." The messenger announced.
Brunhilde gathers her Valkyrie Maidens. Mist summons her Erinyes.
"All right, girls! Let's get ready!" Brunhilde announced.
Mist orders, "Ladies, to the dressing room!"
The Valkyries and Erinyes head for the dressing room. Every other guest await for the Valkyries and Erinyes' return.
(Final Fantasy XV OST - 67. Starlit Waltz resumes)
"Wonder how Sasha will look in her dress." Philippe can only imagine.
Himura answers, "It's going to be surreal seeing Kotori in a dress. She's only worn a dress once for the ball."
"We're about to find out soon enough." Kouichi said to the two Digimon boys.

Coming from the fictional town of Hawkins, Indiana, some kind of a time portal emerges that sends out four boys: Mike Wheeler, Dustin Henderson, Lucas Sinclair, and Will Byers. They were just playing Dungeons & Dragons at Mike's house with Nancy watching over (well, at least she's busy with something else), when out of the blue, one of the items is a magical thing out of nowhere that sends the boys to this time period. So its 1983/84 - 2017, meaning they traverse to 34/35 years in the future.
"Where are we?" Mike curiosity looks around.
Dustin groans, "Aw man, what the hell just happened?!"
Lucas scans the area, "It looks like we transported to some kind of fantasy realm."
Will sees the Bifrost bridge in distance, "Wait a minute, I know where we are."
"What is it?" Mike asked his friend.
Will replies, "I think we're in Asgard, guys!"
"Asgard?! You mean the place with the Norse Gods?!" Lucas has it figured.
"Wow, and their hosting some kind of party! Not to mention we just traveled forward to this time." Mike cried out.
Dustin ponders, "What year is it, we gotta see a calendar."
The Stranger Things boys then see what Dustin said, the calendar posted on a wall with the year. They are in a cultural shock.
"WHAT?! 2017?!" The boys shouted in unison.
Then, Kozmo Farmgirl and Ruby Rose show up to see the boys.
"Hey, you boys are looking lost?" Ruby Rose asked them.
Mike answers to Team RWBY's leader, "We sure are."
Lucas talks to Kozmo Farmgirl, "And you're carrying some lightsaber, are you a Jedi like Luke Skywalker."
Kozmo Farmgirl chuckles, "Well, technically I'm based on one. I'm a padawan in-training." She then figures out, "Wait, aren't you four from that Netflix show called Stranger Things?!"
"Stranger-what?" Mike dumbfounding said.
Dustin exclaims, "Woah, we are so popular that they just made a show based around us!"
Kozmo Farmgirl sees these comments and respond, "I suppose you guys are from the past, here, we now have a lot of more Star Wars movies and expanded stuff. There's a new movie coming this year called The Last Jedi."
"Now that is so cool! I never knew that'll happen!" Lucas smiled in joy.
Ruby Rose offers, "Care to join the party, kids?"
"Yeah sure!" Dustin answered and turns to his friends, "C'mon, I bet there's food and games!"
"Alright then." Will agreed.
Mike nods, "Count us in."

The Stranger Things boys, Kozmo Farmgirl and Ruby are heading back to the courtyard. Ruby is heading back to meet up with Team RWBY. The Indiana boys are bewildered and awed of what they see, they see fantasy races like Elves and Dwarves (Duergar), there's Dragons, alongside seeing actual Norse gods. They meet up with Farmgirl's dog, Kozmo Tincan, Kozmo Strawman, and Kozmo Scaredy Lion.
"Wow, you guys dress up as Star Wars characters as well!" Lucas exclaimed.
"Why thank you for the compliment. I'm sure you are already aware of Master Yoda?" Kozmo Strawman informed.
Will is interacting with Tincan who the latter makes beeping sounds, while Scaredy Lion grunts at Dustin.
"Why yeah, that guy is awesome in being the master of the force." Lucas already knows.
Kozmo Farmgirl interjects, "Speaking of more Star Wars movies back then, Yoda even fought the Emperor in one of these prequels."
"Holy cow!" Mike said in surprise of a future battle.
Lucas exclaims by agreeing, "Mike's right, this is future stuff for us! If that happens when we grow older, that'll be kick-ass!"
Kozmo Farmgirl then said, "Though I have to warn you kids about the prequel movies, you'll also see how Anakin becomes Darth Vader."
"Really?" Mike queried.
Kozmo Farmgirl honestly answers, "Well…back in the past, Anakin was kinda whiny if you ask me."
Lucas scoff, "Geez, if George Lucas is going to make him one."
"Wow, I would have mention Ghostbusters, and especially the comparison of the new movie last year with an all-female cast, but rather not mention that." Kozmo Farmgirl thought of inside her mind and grins to resume speaking, "But you know what's better, I'm sure you kids like The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings, we now have live-action movies that are awesome to watch."
"Oh man, wait till my mom and my brother hears about this!" Will proclaimed.
Dustin proudly state, "We are so damn lucky. If we can all grow up and see these future movies, that'll make our day for all four of us as nerds."
"And if only Eleven is here right about now.." Mike muttered.
Lucas then speaks out, "Hold on a moment, weren't there any Valkyries around? It wouldn't be Norse Myths without them."
Kozmo Farmgirl answers, "I hear from some audiences that they'll arrive shortly. There's a dance coming up."
(Cue Two Steps From Hell - Hold Me)
Just then, an alluring feeling approaches to the audience as they saw the Valkyries and Erinyes reappearing. They are now wearing ball dresses with different colors and lining up in a single position almost like high school prom in ready to dance with their dates.
Brunhilde's dress is cyan. She's in the middle with Mist, who's wearing a dark red dress. The right side next to Brunhilde are the Valkyries. Skuld stands next to Brunhilde wearing a black dress. Skogul, next to Skuld, wears a dark green dress. Sigrun, next to Skogul, wears a purple dress. Gondul, next to Sigrun, wears a white dress. The left side next to Mist are the Erinyes. Rota stands next to Mist wearing a lilac dress (and she's barefooted). Geirskogul, next to Rota, wears a light green dress. Reginleif, next to Geirskogul, wears an amber dress. Geiravor, next to Reginleif, wears a pale blue dress.
All of the young women gave smiles to their audience.
Needless to say, everyone is amazed that the dance is about to commence. Without a word, they are about to select their partners.
xxxxx
(Cue Viennese Waltz - Winter Waltz)
A nostalgic waltz plays, in reminiscence the time of the Moon Kingdom and gods' party many centuries ago, especially the time when Okami danced with Serenity.
The Dance partners are seen dancing: Brunhilde x Kouichi, Skuld x Philippe, Skogul x Ford x Geirskogul, Sigrun x Gondul, Mist x Loki (not a couple), Reginleif x Asgardian (not a couple), Geiravor x Dark Elf (not a couple), Sanngrior x Hagen, Rota x Nick, Takato x Rika, Himura x Jeri, Henry x Sara, Renamon x Inumon, Yui x Aoshi, Urd x Tsukimaru, Verdandi x Kazu, Odin x Frigg, Hela x Skuld's Father, Carmen x Lann cosplayer, Seto x Lyn, Scott x Penny, Ryo x Alice, and the lesbians light elf x dark elf.
Ford is holding Skogul and Geirskogul with both arms around their backs, the Valkyrie on left and Erinye on right, the Gemini maidens hold each other. As they dance, Samantha Nightwind leans towards Ford, she briefly gently nibbles his neck before whispers his right ear.
"Are you having fun? Remember we and Jessica made love that entices and delighted me?" Geirskogul asked, "You gave me a human name, and I peed on the ground while I licked you. Guess I should practice potty training."
The sybaritic Geirskogul softly giggles as she licks Ford's earlobe to tease and make Skogul pique.
Ford mutters, "Sam…"
Skogul grumbles at Geirskogul, "Will you knock that off? We're in public."
"So what?" Geirskogul could care less.
"Have some etiquette. There's a time and place for that." Skogul sternly lectured.
Ford calms the argument, "Ok that's enough, you two. And yes, Geirskogul, you'll need potty training."
Geirskogul grins seductively, "Yes, thank you so much."
Brunhilde dances with Kouichi alongside Himura and Jeri. Kouichi is enamored with Brunhilde wearing her ball dress she wore for the police inauguration ball.
Brunhilde smiles and stares at Kouichi, "What's wrong, Kouichi?"
"It's not often you wear dresses of any kind." Kouichi commented.
Brunhilde has another option, "I could wear a suit like my YYGDM self did."
"No, your dress is very pretty, Kotori." Jeri sincerely commented.
"Why thank you, Jeri." Brunhilde smiled.
Himura dances with Jeri, "At least we won't have any interruptions from any bad Metas."
"No kidding, that police ball could've been better had it not been for those bad guys." Kouichi recalled about The Elementalists.
"Luckily we have Venus there help us kick their sorry butts." Brunhilde remarked about the Senshi that endorses her career.
Brunhilde and Kouichi impress everyone with their dance moves. Brunhilde spins Kouichi around, tosses him into the air and catches him. She walks around carrying Kouichi. Mist scoffs at Brunhilde.
"She thinks she can do better than do?" Mist see it.
"Let's not turn this into a competition. We're not even a true couple." Loki reminded.
"Why not?" Mist replied.
Drum roll sound effects are heard, as Mist does the same and tosses Loki into the air. She closes her eyes and waits for the trickster to fall. She times his exact fall and catches him. The sound effects cease.
Mist opens her eyes, "See? I did with my eyes closed!"
Loki sighs, "Nice catch."
Brunhilde sees this and exclaims, "Oh you want to make this a dance off, you're on!"
As Brunhilde & Kouichi dance off with Mist & Loki, Urd and Tsukimaru watch the dance duel.
"Go Kotori!" Urd cheered.
"Hey, Saya, do you remember your counterpart calling Skogul the 'most beautiful of the three'?" Tsukimaru asked.
Urd answers and remembers as well, "Yeah, between her, Sigrun, and Gondul, she is, but truthfully I consider her the most 'spiritual beauty'. Sigrun and Gondul both present 'physical beauty'."
"That makes sense. Skogul is a more spiritual warrior. Sigrun and Gondul are like Valkyrie Amazons." Tsukimaru commented.
"And out of the Erinyes, Geirskogul would be the most 'spiritual beauty'." Urd stated.
"Well, that sounds about right." Tsukimaru agreed.
"This is a wonderful dance gathering, don't you think?" Urd asked.
Tsukimaru smiles, "It sure is, Saya."
Rota is seen holding the frightened Nick as she begins to use her bare foot to fond his scrotum.
"Tehehehe. You like me don't you Nicky?" She then unbuttons his shirt while holding him as she licks and swirls his left nipple like a mixed ice cream. "C'mon, say yes." Then, Inner Rota takes over, "Say YES!"
Rota uses her barefoot to squeezes Nicky's 'nickel balls' to put him under submission. Penny sees this while dancing with Scott and feels angered.
Nick whimpers painfully, "Please... someone help... sis..."
Penny darkly glares at Rota, "I've got my eye on you, bitch."
"Ooo, I'm sooo scared of Penny-weeny." Rota taunted.
"Say that in my face!" Penny yelled.
Rota dances with Nick over to Penny and Scott.
Rota snickers in Penny's face, "Penny-weeny!"
Penny growls, "Why you...!"
"C'mon, not here, ladies!" Scott stopped the conflict.
Carmen interjects, "Hey, quit fighting and dance."
"Yeah, this is a no fight area." Lann cosplayer agreed.
"Ok." Penny sighed and turns to Rota, "But you best knock it off with that creepy shit and treat my brother right! Got it?"
"Whateves." Rota rolled her eyes.
"Thanks, guys..." Nick gets pulled away to dance with Rota away from his sister and friends.
"Don't worry I'm taking good care of you, Nicky." Rota evilly smirked.
"Great..." Nick murmured.
Reginleif and the Asgardian are seen dancing.
"I feel lucky to dance with you." The Asgardian said.
Reginleif smiles, "Thanks, even though we're not official since I already have Helgi Harrison as my boyfriend."
For Geiravor and the Dark Elf.
"It's just not bad, since I already pair up with Tunnel back in Midgard." Geiravor said.
The Dark Elf responds, "That's fine, but we Dark Elves can offer you of whether you like to be our guardian?"
Geiravor thinks about it since knowing Gondul having the offer to be Alfheim's guardian.
Aoshi briefly converses with Yui.
"My father would tell me about his dance with Queen Serenity ages ago." Aoshi said about the event.
"Yeah?" Yui pondered.
"He said it was an elaborate with people from the Moon Kingdom and gods from other realms like Asgard. Well, now I'm starting to see it." Aoshi figured the family connection.
"You think we're living that experience like your dad did?" Yui asked.
Aoshi answers, "Yeah since we're in the presence of Norse gods. And most of all, I get to spend it with you."
Yui smiles, "I'm glad to hear that, Aoshi. I'm having a good time, too."

(Cue Send Me On My Way - Rusted Root)
Now the scene switches for the party has dinner by serving Saehrimnir and many food/drinks they served. This is like a belated Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner with everyone, whether their friends or foes come to sit down for the feast. The theater screen is still showing Valkyrie Advent at the same time for people to see while eating. Digimon partners (with a few exceptions) are seen wolfing down food. Zmey's heads are fighting over meat with Smok awkwardly stare at Zmey's manners. Ruby and Kozmo Farmgirl eat together like best buds. Skogul is seen eating politely with kitchen utensils, while Geirskogul is seen eating like an animal with only her mouth and not using any forks and spoons. Sigrun and Thor's goats are helping out the food before they join the table group to eat. Kozmo Farmgirl is seen talking to Takato, Brunhilde, and Sailor Moon in finally meeting with three of the YYGDM Founders.
During the feast, an Asgardian radio plays of Ignis' voice from FFXV since he's no longer around cries out: That's it! I've come up with a new recipe!
"What the heck was that about?" confused Takato about the voice from the radio.
"Pay it no mind, goggles." Rika told her boyfriend to not worry.
"Whatever you say." Takato replied.
Kozmo Farmgirl then starts the conversation, "That was so weird. By the way, you three are part of the YYGDM Founders?"
"Yeah, us three. Yugi, Yusuke, Takuya, and Sedna also make up the other Founders." Moon answered.
"Hey, don't forget about our newest member, Marty Stonebagel." Brunhilde added.
"Oh yeah! The leader of the West Coasters is now with us." Moon said.
"He mostly handles the underground intel stuff for us." Takato informed.
Kozmo Farmgirl is admired, "My, your group is full of resourceful people."
Moon smiles, "We don't mean to brag, but we lead by example."
"We sure do!" Brunhilde notices the other Valkyries eating and having conversations, "Being a leader is hard, but I'm enjoying the perks of it."
Freya's cats are seen with Coyote and Anansi. Bygul is playing with Anansi with her hands by touching the spider, while Trjegul is sleeping on top of Coyote. Just then, a crow arrives to meet the two trickster gods, he is Crow from the Australian Aboriginal mythology and representing Sigrun's own 'trickster guide'.
"Hey you two, I made it to the party." Crow sees Freya's cats teasing, "Umm, what are they doing?"
"They're playing with us. What does it look like?" Anansi groaned.
"And where have you been?" Coyote questioned the bird.
Crow answers nervously, "Well, you see… I took a wrong turn…"
"That's what you always say!" Anansi retorted.
Coyote sighs, "You need to learn to be on time for these events."
"Oh c'mon, there's no rush. At least I showed up!" Crow made it up.
"Surprised you did. You're the anti-social one of the three." Anansi sarcastically compared.
"Things sure haven't changed." Coyote groaned.
Freya's cats turn their attention to Crow and start playing with him. Byugul bops Crow in the head while Trjegul lays on Crow's back. Crow collapses under their weight.
"Help!" Crow cawed.
"Nah, I think they like you more." Coyote stated.
"That should get them off our backs." Anansi said in relief.
"Sigrun! Help!" Crow cried out.
Sigrun notices Crow being 'gang attacked' by Freya's cats.
"Oh, hey, Crow! So nice you finally came!" Sigrun smiled.
"Yes, good to see you, too,... now help!" Crow pleaded.
"Why? Looks like you're having fun with your new friends." Sigrun could care less.
"Help!" Crow exclaimed.
(Cue 75. Broken Bonds - FINAL FANTASY XV Original Soundtrack)
Suddenly, Ford is eating little food and feels down.
Kozmo Farmgirl is munching food while speaking, "Hey, what's wrong?"
"I'm just not in the mood to eat for the moment." Ford muttered.
Sinon comes to figure, "Now that you mention it, it's about that Tuxedo Norse alongside the other Valkyries besides Brunhilde and Skuld."
"I'm pretty amazed in the YYGDM movie exclusively, Skuld is the one that ended Ragnarok in the first place. That is one of the best parts." Weiss said about that plot twist.
"Which I stopped it from happening here unlike YYGDM by killing the fucker to pieces!" Rota cackles.
Kozmo Farmgirl discusses about Alec/Tuxedo Norse, "This guy being imposed to this movie reminds me of Venom's last minute addition in Spider-Man 3, and ironically it's that movie's 10th anniversary!"
"I really think so. I sometimes feel sorry for them." Freya said in pity.
"It's like the movie we're watching is ruined by 'too many cooks in the kitchen'." Frey added.
Ford first turns to Sigrun, "I remember when Kotori and Group A went to your family's animal shelter, that Tasmanian Devil you showed is a tribute to your late mother that passed away from a wildfire rescue mission alongside her Tasmanian Devil partner. Plus, you have relatives that live in Melbourne, one of them attended the University of Melbourne. While your YYGDM self's mother is alive and likely have no relatives."
"I remember." Reginleif recalled and turns to Sigrun, "Your real father was King Hogne, but your youthful mother who is that female Viking divorced her upon Helgi's involvement. Your mother was remarried to Magni, making you Thor's step-granddaughter."
"I know. That does make my past self part-Viking, doesn't it?" Sigrun replied to her, "And yeah now that you mention it that also makes me related to Thor. I guess that's why I'm worthy to hold Mjolnir?"
"And I remember I killed you and Helgi! And our conflicts three years back and that New Year-!" Reginleif gave a sad look on the verge of tears, knowing that Helgi Harrison is Helgi's reincarnation and now ironically Reginleif's boyfriend.
Sigrun pats Reginleif's shoulder, "Oh, it's ok. We had our differences and you did kill my past self, but I'm willing to forget and forgive."
"Really? And after all I did to you?" Reginleif asked.
Sigrun nods, "I'm not one to bear grudges. Let's just put our past histories behind us and look forward."
"Oh thank you, Sigrun." Reginleif smiled.
Ford then turns to Gondul, "Then I recall you had more history as an active professional fighter slash fighter champion besides being the village's guardian. Something I feel your YYGDM self felt more restricted and can't allow free time."
"I guess so." Gondul agreed, "I mean, my YYGDM self still looks like she's physically trained, but to protect her village and not to compete as a professional fighter."
"Yeah. If there's anything you two have in common, you're both strong enough to defend your village." Ford commented.
"But, I may be willing to try out professional fighting if Sigrun's ok with it. Boxing, wrestling, MMA… I could dominate those realms." Gondul can only dream.
Sigrun informs, "I'd be fine with it, Ayanna. Just as long as you hold back your full strength. We wouldn't want you to injure too many people."
Gondul chuckles, "Yeah, you're right."
"Well the first two are neutral, yet YYGDM!Sigrun's concern is a little higher than Gondul." Ford stated.
Reginleif is saying with a destined foreshadow, "I wish I want to meet the YYGDM!Sigrun someday after this, more likely to protect her."
Ford finally turns to his wife, "But, the biggest change goes to Jessica. Don't mind about Chapter 5 since it's great, but I realize something. You graduated from university, heck you even showed Kotori and Group C your degree, while your YYGDM self never went to college to begin with. Your YYGDM self mainly uses magic powers, while you expand more to wield physical weapons like a spear, that staff you used at Wyrm in House of Madoka, and recently Haakon's sword, not to mention using physical hand-to-hand combat. You'd even go head-to-toe with the mother of dragons (Nidhogg) unafraid unlike the YYGDM you."
Nidhogg is speaking with her gargantuan head lowering down behind Ford and Skogul, "I showed zero consternation from her time powers unlike one of my children (Zmey) and Fafnir."
"I mean, Kanius/Takeru and Ford1114 would have originally kept her as a half-angel like you alongside attended a college in Oregon and Chilali as a third partner of being seen as a potential special character." Ford said till he's irked, "Till YYGDM's influences forces them to change it which I can understand their not happy and had mixed feelings due to LazerWulf and Kanius had disagreements of 'specific ideas'."
"What do you mean 'specific ideas'?" Skogul asked.
"Yeah, tell us." Geirskogul urged.
"Maybe sometimes we don't always get what we want?" Mist sips her wine.
Ford starts to show anger at Mist, "You don't think I know that?! This end result of YYGDM VA has become a mixed bag and not showing its full potential that the author originally wanted! It's like YYGDM-01 is literally, figuratively, and subjectively mistreating Skogul like jack shit! Out of all the YYGDM-01 OCs post-Dawn of Chaos, Jessica is the most highly mistreated! I just want my story counterpart to save these three!"
"Whoa, easy, Ford!" Brunhilde pleaded.
Vali approaches and aggressively grabs Ford's Yato scarf, "Hey, you need to calm the hell down!"
Ford quickly frees himself and snaps, "I GET IT, ALRIGHT?! I GET IT!"
Silence. Everybody is shocked at Ford's outburst; it's a reminder of Shinnen Ch. 34. But for one thing, letting out anger is healthier and positive than staying depressed for long.
Ford calms down, "Sorry."
Vali nods, "It's okay, man."
"We all need to get something out of our systems." Brunhilde stated.
"You can't keep it all bottled up if you don't wanna go nuts." Takato said to Ford.
"Exactly, there's no reason to hold it all in." Moon added.
Skogul pats Ford's hand, "Thanks for sticking up for my YYGDM self."
"Yeah, what you did takes courage." Geirskogul nodded.
"Yeah, I know. I won't keep it bottled up. Thanks for listening, everyone." Ford felt glad to them.
(Cue Lacuna Coil – Honeymoon Suite)
Heimdall brings forth another topic, "We also can't forget about Kensuke Rainer, known as Dramon X."
"I remember Allfather mention Storm Caller before he became Griel, alongside he and King Sedna made the Star Breaker that our Kensuke already has the weapon." Frey informed.
"But, this is more of the XLR-8 counterpart we're discussing." Heimdall said to Freya's brother.
Ford is eating some food and after swallowing it, he chuckles, "You know, I kinda compare the XLR-8 version of Kensuke to some broker of seeing the rise and potential downfall, sometimes I gotta wonder if Ken makes some more F-words."
During Ford's dialogue, the Asgardian radio plays of Jorden Belfort of The Wolf of Wall Street that his voice cries out: Benihana? Beni-fucking-hana?! BENI-FUCKING-HANA?! WHY?! WHY, WHY GOD?! Why would you be so cruel as to choose a chain of fucking hibachi restaurants to take me down?!
Puck whistles, "I can see how that contributor creates a Digimon version of me!"
"Have you all remembered the incident that our dimension is felt when Ken (XLR-8) fought a Mira look-a-like that claims himself to be Zeed X?" Frey reminded everyone, "Not only this dimension, but others like DF-616, YYGDM-01 and XLR-8 felt it as well."
"That 'Zeed X' guy could do that Unicron Orson Welles voice-a-like like saying-." Puck remarked by mimicking Orson Welles with the full out complete voice to make audiences laugh, "Let go, kill them all, they will all fear you."
"I remember two years ago, our Kensuke fought me while I was under Apep's control. I was converted into a Malefic Blue-Eyes White Dragon and took on Ken's Dragon mode." Seto remembered.
Lyn then adds, "And our Kuipers were there to witness our Ken's transformation into his Dragon mode. The YYGDM-01 Kuipers didn't see him become a Dragon until that Weekend at Kenny's story."
"Then, my YYGDM-01 self didn't become a Malefic? Interesting." Seto sees a comparison knowing YYGDM is an AU universe with Bonds Beyond Time doesn't exist.
Brunhilde said and wonder, "And our Ken isn't as intrusive as the one in the YYGDM-01 stories. Isn't he supposed to have started living fresh in the YYGDM-01 dimension?"
"Yeah, he was, but looks like he's got unfinished business." Kouichi answered.
"But with who? All of his main rogues gallery are either dead or wandering about with no direction." Takato wondered.
"Well, I did mention 'Zeed X'." Puck speaks up.
"But we beat him…" Moon said in recalling her group defeated Zeed X in Shinnen as he already ceased to exist.
"That could be just some poser taking over after him." Puck truthfully said that it's an aspect.
"Well that's self-assuring. We don't want to deal with the real one again." Brunhilde take it a grain of salt.
Ford comments, "But still, I'm not sure Ken needs to involved with every conflict, but that's just my opinion. Our Ken knows when to stand down."
"Can we not talk about this anymore?" Skogul asked her husband to stop.
"You're right. I should just drop it." Ford agreed to his wife.
"Yes, let's bring back a festive mood to these celebrations!" Thor cheered.
"You're right! Let's continue digging in!" Takato grinned.
"More food to go around!" Guilmon scarfs down a plate.
"I think I lost my appetite." Renamon muttered.
"Yeah, had my fill. Hey, here's our pups! My, how they've grown!" Inumon exclaimed to his children.
(Cue 78. Relax and Reflect - Pensive - FINAL FANTASY XV Original Soundtrack)
BlackRenamon and YellowKouInumon approach Renamon and Inumon's side.
"Hi, mom and dad." BlackRenamon smiled.
"Mom! Dad!" YellowKouInumon hugs them both.
"Your Tamers have been treating you well, I see." Renamon smiled.
Inumon smirks to Yusuke and Kazuma, "Good job making our pups grow, you two."
"Sure." Kazuma nodded.
"It was nothing to it." Yusuke stated.
Brunhilde and Mist notice their Digimon, Seadramon and Volcanicdramon, chatting.
"Our partners sure are getting along ok." Brunhilde sees the two.
"Only because we're on a truce tonight, but make no mistake our Digimon will duel." Mist reminded her rival.
"And we'll be ready whatever your new partner can bring!" Brunhilde states to her.
"And it shall be brought." Mist agreed.
"What are they talking about?" Volcanicdramon sees their debate.
"Who cares? Let's keep talking and eating." Seadramon stated.
With the discussions begin to cool off, Kozmo Scaredy Lion is grunting in awkwardness.
"It's been calming down." Sinon sees the environment soothing.
"Of all this arguing before it's settled." Mike added.
Dustin turns to Lucas, "Remind us of our first thoughts of Eleven and searching for Will?"
Lucas snaps at Dustin, "As if!"
Gondul sits with the boys, "Hello."
"Whoa, it's one of the Valkyrie Maidens!" Mike cried out.
"Holy shit, it's the black one!" Dustin exclaimed.
"My name's Gondul." Gondul smirked and turns to Lucas.
Mike elbows Lucas, "Hey, she's a black Valkyrie!"
"H-Hey, uh you're like sitting right here." Lucas nervously asked.
Gondul answers in reminded Lucas of Anuli, "Yeah, I am. So, what do you think of a black woman like me as a Valkyrie?"
"Like holy shit, I never would've seen this coming!" Lucas commented.
"Talk about progress." Dustin added.
Freya interjects, "I was reminded the YYGDM-01 realm showed the original Valkyrie team differently as a full out Norse Goddess team instead of diversity in our realm."
"Indeed, my YYGDM counterpart is the leader with her teammates consisted of your counterpart, Hela, Skadi, and Idunn." Frigg took notice while she herself seems like an adaptational wimp, "My counterpart had even accused YYGDM!Freya for being too free-spirited and irresponsible with her duties."
"Yes, you can say that again, Frigg." Freya chuckled before announcing, "But at least the theater screen is showing something happening in YYGDM-01."
"What is it, sister?" Frey asked.
Freya informs to everyone, "YYGDM!Philippe's soul is at my counterpart's realm of Folkvangr."
Most of the guests are surprised to hear this. This revelation is revealed as the last scene of Ch. 8.
"What?! My counterpart's soul is in Folkvangr?!" Philippe cried out in big surprise.
Brunhilde reminds her cousin, "Hey, they've barely entered the Nine Realms. Geez, I hope my counterpart and her friends can get Philippe's soul back!"
"Oh we'll see how they fare." Mist smirks, "My counterpart's been taking care of that business with Loki."
"Aye, now we get to the interesting parts." Loki said about the juicy parts.
"While the other Loki continues to hijack my body." Takato cried out.
"Don't forget us!" Henry and Himura reminded Takato.
"Hopefully they can get Philippe's soul back sooner than later." Rika can hope.
"They better damn do." Brunhilde agreed.
(End theme)
Then, everyone senses two Aesir presences arriving, they turn to see none other than Odin's brothers: Vili (known as Hoenir) and Ve (known as Lodurr).
"Brothers?!" Odin exclaimed in surprise.
Brunhilde, Mist, the Valkyries, and the Erinyes all shout, "Huh?! Your brothers?!"
"Greetings, we meet again at last." Vili introduced.
"It's been so long to visit Asgard again, brother." Ve greeted Odin.
And then, the screen fades black.

Ford1114's A/N: We have more guests coming such as Kozmo Farmgirl and her friends, Farmgirl is like the Akane Tsunemori of YYGDM. Penny is ticked upon seeing Rota. The dancing scene is good as well in tributing YYGDM Gaiden of the Moon Kingdom's party.
So yeah, Corner!Mist and Gunnar are still siblings after all like their YYGDM selves, a difference is that Corner!Gunnar also endured and escaped from Grimhilde's abuse. Volcanicdramon appearing to become Corner!Mist's Digimon partner serves as a counterpart of Brunhilde's Seadramon. Volcanicdramon reminds me of Alduindramon (an old Digimon expy of Alduin I created) becoming an official character, alongside if Fafnir were to be a Digimon. Mist's Digimon partner VA is be Chris Sabat and imagine the voice feels like Ddraig from High School DxD. Word of God: Corner!Alberich is voice by Darin De Paul (imagine hearing Ardyn Izunia from that Duergar) while Hagen is voice by Adrian Bouchet. Both of their YYGDM-01 selves (which they are mainly referred as Andvari and Hogni) have different voice actors.)
Thanks to Kanius watched that awesome Netflix show, The Stranger Things boys have come to the party via time travel, and looks like they are having quite a culture shock. Oh yeah, Season 2 of Stranger Things is coming this Halloween, two days after the author's birthday.
Yeah, even though the Corner Valkyries appear before their main YYGDM selves, this serves almost like an 'inverse adaptation' of what if the Corner!Valkyries outside of YYGDM-01 can have these specific things/origins. In YYGDM, Sigrun's ancestral mother is not going to be remarried to Magni.
(Sigh) Okay, Tuxedo Norse compared to Venom's last minute addition. Alec wasn't even suppose to appear in VA at all, but he's imposed to be put. Unlike YYGDM!Mist's miasma vibes that it's intentional that we got plans for her 'torture' post-VA, Alec is not intentional as we and the author don't even know of him nor Lazer did not even tell him flat out before VA is uploaded. These types of 'fanfic secrets' are no longer relevant in life. He's actually the main reason why VA becomes a mix bag, and I would have enjoyed VA a little if it weren't for him… I now compare VA and VH to Spider-Man 3/Amazing Spider-Man 2 and Spider-Man Homecoming respectively. To be honest, I did have nightmares and can't stop thinking about specific wrenches even if I tried to let go (Especially Jessica becomes unique that she doesn't even belong in YYGDM-01 in the first place. Instead of me feeling excited of YYGDM!Skogul appearing like Belle, I am actually a little nervous. For me of the talks of 'proper canon appearance' in fanfic, I still do not see them as 'official characters' in 'official canon appearances'.). Even if VA will be complete and look forward to see some good moments, the damage is already done despite me and the author have back ups to help (another reason why it has the lowest amount of favorites in all of YYGDM fics). Yeah, I think Ken (XLR-8) is shown to be at least reasonable compare to Alec. I'm ending this topic since me and K would rather keep private opinions to ourselves. But, sometimes looking back, I wonder if Arashi could have been Helgi's reincarnation, even if in Corner I have Helgi reincarnated as a normal civilian and ironically now Reginleif's love interest. And also, the author should have thought of something for Gram differently instead of allowing it to be use for Tuxedo Norse. I would rather see Kanius do his own interpretation of Helgi outside of YYGDM as better received instead of Lazer's portrayal. Because Tuxedo Norse is not going to work in an official setting (that the author is glad that he won't exist, knowing he understands how readers will feel).
Furthermore, the two Intermissions (Brunhilde/Siegfried and Ragnarok) for Valkyrie Advent, they weren't suppose to be put in the story, I thought of them as just flashbacks (even some parts like the Ragnarok are long) in main chapters (and I can imagine the author's understanding), but Lazer suggested the author to do these separately. K did admit he wanted to do an Intermission of some sort and I even support that it should be just one long Intermission chapter halfway through a fanfic instead of two when discuss on email, but two are planned to be put anyway. Looking back at the Brunhilde/Siegfried intermission, it feels like it retells the origin almost like Spider-Man movies retelling origin stories too many times. I've read Norse fiction books that don't even outright show this, only in backgrounds while focusing on their own stories. Seeing how YYGDM-01 retells this tale in an intermission questions that while it tries to 'introduce' Norse Myths/Myths to readers, outside of their universe, most of pop culture (and even the Cornerverse of all people) already know about Norse Myths/Myths use often, which is sad how it's a waste of time in life (Even if Lazer said to the author of wanting to put everything together, what good would it come outside of fanfics?). It's not the author's fault, it's another reason why Valkyrie Advent has the biggest amount of executive meddling..
In-between, I'm sure you people already know of rumors that Venom will get his 'own' marvel universe thanks to Sony without a Spider-Man, not to mention Sony remains greedy in wanting to take back Spider-Man. Upon knowing this, I honestly almost cried. Because Spider-Man and its lore is so important to the Marvel Cinematic Universe that Sony makes a bad move, it'll destroy their business. Well, me, Lycosyncer, and many people want Sony to go bankrupt anyway due to the controversial decisions post Spider-Man 3 and why Spider-Man's film rights will return to Marvel to fully do justice. I mean, wouldn't you guys love to see Venom's creepy awesomeness in MCU instead of Sony's? The 'rights' of comparing to Marvel rights of different companies, it can also remind Kanius that he uses OCs from his contributors (Belle, Lazer for examples) in his fanfics, it's likely that since the author will create his own characters based on these OCs serves another example of freedom, best to do it sooner than later.
And I know myself that I can be impatient when it comes to certain things, which is justified due to the obvious email spamming from Chaos before that affects my patience and sanity, since again it holds me and Kanius back for the real world. It shows a reminder that since I'm waiting for another job, you can understand how it feels that way for the job competition, it goes for everyone too. Sometimes, even if I'm the youngest and have a mature mindset at such an early age (that I stand up of speaking out of what's my mind), I am honestly still learning, obviously one day as I grow older, I can be wiser. Perhaps if my mind is up to it, I might do my own 'special commentary' in Defiants to write details of my growth and flaws, I know I did that in my Shinnen's final chapter A/N, but it'll go deeper. Such as I remember past events like school that nowadays I wish I don't want to go back thinking about the past (Even if I graduated from college, I recall specific dreams of being forced to take a course that I didn't signed up in real-life), but I have to when I'm going to write it.
This ends when Odin's two brothers arrive to the homecoming. This is going to be an interesting turn of events. The next Segment will show it alongside a magnificent backstory. After which there will be three more segments that showcase the Second Ragnarok, totaling up the chapters to 13. There will be specific scenes in the 11th Segment that'll be the same copy/paste scenes for Valkyrie Advent, two of which are YYGDM!Suzaku's revival (shown in the theater screen) and the climactic battle against Loki/Dragon-Loki (that one will actually be a Corner flashback three years ago, because this will have some differences in YYGDM though the format from the Corner version such as dialogue and such will remain the same). Like the author always plan ahead, these I suggested will help the author to save time/prepare early (and in case to prepare of Lazer's 'demands'), to be fair, Kanius mentioned he planned the Yami Houou scenes in advance back in Invasion of the Rajita. I'm looking at this fic will end early at July 2017 just in time for the new Spider-Man movie in the MCU before Valkyrie Advent is finish.
Lastly, I'd like to show an analysis of comparisons between VA/Intermission - Brunhilde/Siegfried and VH Segment 8 Flashback since ever since I saw the early preview in google docs, both are Disneyfied versions, but there are lots of differences between YYGDM and Corner.
-YYGDM!Mist never became a Valkyrie to begin with and only become one at the end of the intermission by Loki. Corner!Mist trained to becoming a Valkyrie as a child (serving as an Adaptational Badass), but is banish and later become an Erinye. Corner!Mist met Loki much earlier at Asgard while becoming a Valkyrie. (I remember last year, Kanius told me that Lazer came up the origin story of Gudrun in YYGDM-01)
-For Brunhilde's banishment by Odin with two different songs. In YYGDM, 'Thor - Banishment' and 'Thor - Forgive Me' plays. Corner, 'Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV - Prologue' and 'Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV - Luna' plays, Mist and Reginleif are seen in Odin's throne room.
-Corner!Gunnar escaped from Grimhilde's abuse.
-Corner!Siegfried met Grani much earlier and without Gudrun/Gunnar's presences before meeting Brunhilde. Corner!Siegfried has Odin's guidance when fighting Fafnir while his YYGDM self doesn't.
-YYGDM, Gudrun uses her powers to make Siegfried forget Brunhilde and Gunnar planted Siegfried's memories to his head, this is before Brunhilde is rescued. Corner, taking place after Brunhilde is rescued, Mist instruct Gunnar for his potion for Siegfried to drink and make him forget (which implies to be temporary as he fully recovers and remembers Brunhilde during Ragnarok and freeing himself from being a Lokar soldier).
-In YYGDM, Gudrun/Gunnar failed to take Andvaranaut and Siegfried. Corner, they both succeeded, Corner!Brunhilde and 'Siegfried' briefly fallout of the betrayal due to Gunnar's potion trickery.
-YYGDM, Gudrun failed to defeat Brunhilde in combat (before Ragnarok). Corner, Mist overpowers the mortal Brunhilde (during Ragnarok), making this a much losing battle and Mist being successful (another example of Adaptational Badass) than her YYGDM self.
-Corner!Brunhilde, Siegfried, and Gunnar are 'Spared by the Adaptation' for Ragnarok that they all died here. These three were not involved in YYGDM-01.
-Corner!Gunnar briefly helped Brunhilde by returning to Asgard, but not before Brunhilde grabs his balls for submission. :D
-Corner!Siegfried briefly became a Lokar Soldier for Ragnarok. YYGDM!Siegfried is killed by Mist. Corner!Siegfried is killed by Hagen. YYGDM!Gunnar is killed by Brunhilde, Corner!Gunnar is killed by Hagen.
-"Siegfried… my love… I'll be joining thee. Nothing will keep us apart." In YYGDM, Brunhilde said that before marching to the pyre (with only Grani witnessing), the song 'Thor - Can You See Jane?' plays. In Corner, Brunhilde said that after tossing herself to the pyre (with Mist and various people witness it), the song 'Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV - At Struggle's End' plays, and since it took place towards the end of Ragnarok, it intensifies the tension and emotion.
Take it away, partner.
(Cue Johnny Cash - Hurt)
Kanius' A/N: I guess you're giving me a lot to say then, Ford? I hope these commentaries and analyses aren't frequent. This isn't some college analysis paper I'm writing here, but whatever let's get this over with.
First, I'll provide my brief analysis on the comparisons of the VH Segment 8 Flashback and VA Intermission (Brunhilde/Siegfried).
-For starters, I do prefer the VH Segment 8 take on Mist/Gudrun and Reginleif's backstory. Gudrun is shown to be humanized than Gudrun in VA Intermission. In VA Intermission, Gudrun comes off as a selfish and immoral brat with no morality. -Mist/Gudrun in VA Segment 8 Flashback still has her selfish desires for Siegfried and wanting Brunhilde dead, but ultimately Mist moves on from pursuing Siegfried's love and focuses on her rivalry with Brunhilde. I greatly prefer Mist/Gudrun (Corner) by far.
-I much prefer Mist (Corner)'s origins than her YYGDM counterpart.
-Brunhilde (Corner) and Brunhilde (YYGDM) are more or less the same to me. Their banishments are not too different. I don't have a preference for this one.
-Gunnar's backstory is different in both Corner and YYGDM Story. Gunnar (Story) was a king while Gunnar (Corner) was not and escaped Grimhilde's abuse. I prefer Corner's take on Gunnar.
-Siegfried (Corner) received Grani much earlier than his YYGDM counterpart. There was no Gunnar and Gudrun to meddle in Siegfried (Corner)'s affairs until later. I guess I prefer Siegfried (Corner).
-For Gudrun/Mist vs Brunhilde's final confrontation, while I think Gudrun (Corner) became an adaptational badass who greatly overpowered mortal Brunhilde, I did prefer Brunhilde getting one over Gudrun in YYGDM. So, YYGDM takes this one.
-Last, I prefer the Corner take on Brunhilde saying her last words after throwing herself in the pyre with Siegfried. Though, I don't dislike how I wrote the YYGDM version. I feel the Corner version does it better.
As already started earlier, things are slightly moving forward for me. I've caught up on Cross Generations updates and taking a break from that. VA and VH have only fallen behind, moreso with VH. The next VA release has been pushed to next month. I've been focusing on preparing to write my first novel (writing anything on paper) will do. And work got a little busy this past month, plus I've been exercising more on my recreational time. That's led to less time to write than I wanted to, but more beneficial for my health awareness.
My official emails have started to progress ever slightly. However, I'm going to do my best with time management and focus more on my Original Novel-related emails instead. Sorry, Chaos, Lazer, and Ford, but don't get too upset if I take long to respond to fanfic-related mails. I'll get back to your inquiries and ideas when I'm ready. This goes out to Lazer, I know you haven't responded to my proposed Original Novel plans. That tells me you have little to no interest in that, which I won't hold against you. Just say so instead of not responding to Ford's message. Oh well, no slight against me. But if you are interested, I'll let you know what I have planned so far (and may need to ask about using/basing characters on the West Coasters). However, since these are my Novels, I'll have all the say on what goes into my stories (unless you wish to be my editor, but I think I'd like to find my own editor for my novels while you can still be the beta of my YYGDM works (Ford1114's words: Honestly looking back, it'll be a better idea for a different editor instead of Lazer to not repeat same 'filter mistakes'. Actually, it's possible to have two editors, one of which is myself since I'm the main reason/contributor that inspire you to do original works since we discuss a lot of ideas/concepts and I love to develop more career skills to be recognized in society.)). Naturally, I'll still have to answer to an editor, but that's their job. And yes, I understand writing a novel won't be nearly as easy as fanfiction. I understand the processes and difficulty to get a work recognized. However, I think that's the beauty of writing a novel. The logistical and creative processes will be difficult, but being able to write and develop my own characters in their own world without being confined to sharing a world with actual tv/movie characters in a fanfiction setting.
The longer I keep holding off on my Original Novel related mails and finally write something, it'll be too late. I can't always have my fanfics on my mind. 'The sooner you do your dream, the better' will have to be my mantra from now on.
(Ford1114's words: Here's what my friend has to say in declaring this, "The novels would be another chance for me to write my stories as if Chaos and Lazer never interfered. Since those two (as far as I know) have no investment in my novel writing, I can write peacefully and comfortably. It's all about starting fresh here.")
As far as how I'll prioritize emails, I'm not fond of overly long ones and don't like being spammed. So, my 'priority' emails will primarily be based on my ongoing Novel discussion and response mails with contributors (Ford1114's words: Especially Alisa Yang since she's helping out a lot and remind of 'bad habits' in fanfics.) to my Original Novel discussions. My fanwork and fandom discussions will be become secondary priority. I ask please don't send me long winded emails (Ford, if you work on your long email habits that would be a great first step, remember 'less is more').
Moreover, I may just eventually replace my Gaiden updates with my Original Novel writing. Does that means Gaiden is cancelled? No it's just on another extended hiatus until I (or someone) can come up with one. But, don't expect another Gaiden release for a while longer.
I do often ask myself, 'What should I do? It's my fault for letting too many people influence me.' That's why I've decided to do me and not anyone's time. This past year has taught me what happens when certain 'creative differences' occurs and when 'creative wrenches/ideas' are thrown at me last minute. YYGDM lately has proven to be a little difficult, especially Valkyrie Advent, which explains why VA hasn't been seen an update since mid-March (and not counting the Intermission chapter, the last update was late-January). Doesn't help that VA (so far) has the least review and view count. Only The West Coasters has less views, but only because that's an OC-exclusive. That doesn't really inspire too much confidence to keep writing (but who's to say that won't change later? I've been good with finishing YYGDM stories so far). However, my creative juices have been going to Cross Generations, Corner, and DFK-related stories, because I have more freedom and creative liberties with those. I'll just keep focus on the fanfics I want to keep writing and feel comfortable with. I've just been hesitant to bother with VA these last months.
Really if my psyche could be compared to anyone at this point? It would be Samurai Jack's. Having watched this latest season on Toonami, I see a depressed and broken man, who's now having to take action against adversity. That's where I've been since last year. The constant email spam and creative differences over fanfics have put me at odds with people. However, I can't let obstacles no longer stand in the way of my novel writing process. This is where I must forge my own path with that endeavor. If anyone wants to support or help me in anyway, then that's great.
I do need to take more self-responsibility. Could it be my own fault for letting too many people influence and try to drive the direction of my fanfics? Possibly. That means I'll really need to be more strict with what goes into my stories. If I don't take more self-responsibility, then I'm letting too many folks walk all over and take advantage of me. That can't happen anymore.
It's time I start reevaluating about my writing future. If I wish to pursue a writing career, I'll need to think outside the box and avoid being just a fanfic person. I need to expand my writing horizons. Not to say I'll stop fanfic writing, I still plan to reconstruct and create my own personal canon of my favorite fandoms. I hope to continue fan projects if my writing career does take off, because I consider that part of my identity. Maybe some form of YYGDM will continue, or maybe I'll get involved in a new fandom that inspires new ideas. I wish for my writings to inspire some creative writers to create their own projects or reconstruct their favorite fandoms (much in vein to TeamFourStar). For anyone reading these commentaries, thank you.
And furthermore, Segment 10 shouldn't take nearly as long to be released.
Until then, send a review and see you again!
