Poll: You're gonna start seeing quite a number of reboots from me soon! Which of these would you like to see get rebooted/"done right?" I will DEFINITELY redo RunGif, I'm just curious if there's something else I should give another look at. Carl Stevens Universe and Hair Idealization are getting remade too. Eventually. Vote Now! |
![]() Author has written 32 stories for Ed, Edd n Eddy, Total Drama series, Hellsing, Homestuck, Amazing World of Gumball, X-overs, Misc. Cartoons, Simpsons, Gravity Falls, Mario, Misc. Games, King Of The Hill, Steven Universe, Big Bang Theory, Brandy & Mr. Whiskers, and Naruto. UPDATE MOST LIKELY TO HAPPEN NEXT (Legit): Run: .GIFocalypse Rebooted, Chapter 1 Part 2. Might be named "Pines Vs Trees" again. I'll try to have it out by the anniversary of "Soos and the Real Girl," but at the same time I'm thinking of toning down on "meme dates." Yes, this is mostly because the Hiveswap team made the same move. (Straying away from "hype for 6/12, 10/25, 11/11," etc. Except maybe 4/13 since that's when the Epilogues dropped, I don't know.) UPDATE MOST LIKELY TO HAPPEN NEXT: Possibly new Journals of Wisdom, Power, and Courage Chapter 2. RANDOM FUTURE "LEAK" (It's not a real leak if it's told by the very same creator of the story, is it?): I hope you like Bayonetta because the new TJOWPAC might be referencing that a lot. On a kinda-sorta related note, yes, Soos will still spend most of that story naked. No, he will not weave an outfit from his hair, but that's just about the only Bayonetta-ish thing he won't do. Good afternoon. For future reference and this should go without saying, please do not visit any locations or "suspicious" coordinates mentioned in my fan fiction. I'm not an ARG-guy. There's nothing there. This mostly pertains to Run: .GIFocalypse. "Wow did you die or something? Why isn't this anywhere near as active as it was... pretty much since HUC up to around 2017-ish." No I didn't die, it's just that lately (but this is probably going to change as I'm thinking of getting back in to some ideas) been a little more focused on my Fictionpress stories. Go to my Fictionpress account and you'll see that I'm far more active there. At first, a bulk of my effort was placed in to Ordinarily United (NSFW), but then I kind of... felt like I wrote myself in to a corner, so I put it on hiatus while I started to work way more on _Roy (also NSFW, but probably relatively more worksafe than OU since there, at least, isn't any body horror or violence, which OU has). Also on Steve Buhvillen's Intriguing Group (which in of itself is partly NSFW, albeit more due to violence, but as of now it's not that violent that often.) ...Boy is this profile kind of cringe-worthy as it stands. (And my stories are mostly updating faster than my profile. When I actually started filling this out around my "Total Zeksmit/Hecksing Ulumate Crconikals era," it was the other way around.) Soon I'll look through the whole thing again. I might get rid of a lot. Just maybe skip to the list of the update progress on my stories and ignore everything else. Even the links, they don't work. EDIT: As of January 15th (2017, but maybe I'll get to it on 2018 as well), I've begun removing some of the cringier ideas that probably won't be going anywhere anytime soon. Didn't get to see what Temples was supposed to be? Too bad, you'll have to wait until I hide it off on Tumblr and try to never talk about it again. Considering Escape From Fanservice Island, I think you'll understand that my standards are already pretty low in the first place. Anyway, I would recommend just reading up to the list of works until you see stuff that isn't published, then skip straight down to the stories. Or, better yet, click "hide bio" right away. This is still very much under-construction-y. It is especially under construction since I finally addressed this glitch that screwed up bulleted lists and bunched them together as big underlined blocks. Basically I'm just taking advantage of that to motivate myself to remove stupid ranty stuff. I already took a pretty big chainsaw to this page. If you want to see the old version prior to fixing all the lists with the underline glitches... for archive's sake I put it on my computer, so I might find some offsite place to throw that on as a hall of shame a long time later. Or I'm just gonna guess that there's someone who finds this "cringey" enough to document it all for drama or whatever, I don't really know because I don't follow Internet drama unless it's something about the downfall of a big name. Jokes on anyone who documents my stuff, though, because they're willingly putting themselves through my awful writing. Oh, and all of the length is me explaining stuff. I don't put any of that copy-paste meme thing you would see on some other profiles. I personally think that this fact makes this profile less impressive, not more, because of how much junk I put in it. If you've been reading this for a bit/following me a little you might notice that this has been slowing down a bit, relatively. It's kind of a ghost town. Well, blame Ordinarily United for that (I mean I did start publishing Steve Buhvillen's Intriguing Group two months prior but that's not really enough to "hurt" my update rate here), since I started it and found myself liking it way more than I thought (I thought I would eventually regard it as bad "filler" and put more focus on IG but it ended up being the other way around), and while IG is pretty stupid and just my own self-waifu stuff I like it so much that for now at least, most of my focus is going to Fictionpress. So, I update that more. I even have my list of "cycling" avatars there. Although I'll probably drop that gimmick after one last rotation and maybe "settle" on a "permanent" avatar, changing if I want to rather than because Champion Rag Man killed me on the first floor of the Binding of Isaac daily. Let me start this out by saying that I do not do drugs. Many of my ideas just come from... well, they're usually inspired by something. My later stories less so. But most of the time I go through with them because I don't find anything else like the concept anywhere in the fanbase, and if I do it's usually either hiatus'ed before it really takes off or... not... exactly... satisfactory. I have written some info on my TV Tropes and Wikipedia pages. Original fiction is at my Fictionpress right here. This page is going to be for my fan fiction stuff, while I plan on remaking the other two to be more of a typical user page. I have (mostly) already done this with my TV Tropes page. But those two pages aren't completely useless! I have two "Unpublished Works" pages for my fan fics on TV Tropes and a trope page for TZP, and I do have a tiny bit of (very spoilery, but it's mostly SBIG and stuff) information on my Wikipedia sandbox. If you're "overwhelmed" by my stories (understandable), don't want to read through the entire profile (even more understandable, I hate looking through this too, some of the stuff that was burried from years ago is so cringe-worthy now), and have no idea where to start, I'll give a few self-recommendations. If you want to start with the "SBIG" series, I'd actually suggest Hecksing Ulumate Crconikals if you want a "good first impression," or you could be boring and start in publish-order with The Eds' EDventure and Zombie Attack! (And then HUC comes after those, publish-wise). I would not recommend starting my original stories in publish order, because Total Drama World Tour Rewrite, even with its remake, is still kind of garbage IMO. It's just garbage on purpose. I would recommend run:gifocalypse as the "highlight" of my non-joke fan fiction, and it's also a good start for my "element lore." In general, I'd say that both "SBIG" and not-"SBIG," my writing's probably at its relative highest for my Gravity Falls fics, while it's at the lowest for my Homestuck ones (Bl:oodswap as the potential exception). Like, my HS stuff is so bad that if you print out of one them, draw a pentagram from blood, and put the story in the middle, you could probably summon something evil. (But don't do that, seriously. Don't do anything with real blood. Red paint? Knock yourself out as long as you don't get high off of it.) My Tumblr page, which is currently primarly about my fanworks, can be found here. Be forewarned in that, as of the ending of Hecksing Ulumate Crconikals's part of the Great Typo Cleanup, there will be uncovered butts of either gender on that. EDIT: If the link isn't working (for some reason none of the links here seemed to work for a period of time), my main Tumblr is great-pikmin-fan. I have an opinion-themed sideblog called gray-pikmin-fan (if anyone thinks it's great material for riffing me, don't get too excited: I rarely add anything to that), and something called 361-bios, which is centered around one of the two sort-of reincarnations of 360 Degree Duck, an original story on fictionpress I started but then kind of lost interest in. The other one... actually, update, there might be several now. Basically 361-bios is just a ripoff of Wonderful 101's member file thing, covering a bunch of minor members that make up the team and also having some brief profiles of the main thirteen focus protagonists of note there. It might lead to something big, it might not, honestly there's a very small chance that I might not use those characters again... I said that it was one of two possible new incarnations of the 360. The other... I'm getting ahead of myself. ANYWAY, some basics about me. I consider myself an optimist, although I'm not quite sure if I completely fit in with the definition. When it comes to what I write and what I like, I guess I could be considered something of a manchild. I am kind of obsessed with making stories over-the-top with escalation in some way, needlessly complex (the more world building and side characters, the better), and full of attractive women that don't like clothes. Yet I'm not that fond of "superhero movies." (Quotes because I'm being a little broad here...) I actually do like romance some times, as long as it feels natural and isn't some dragged-on back-and-forth drama plot. I generally like upbeat stuff that takes itself at least somewhat seriously, and have a low tolerance for cliches and unoriginality. I'm also kind of stubborn when it comes to getting in to something new, which usually results in me setting rock-bottom expectations, which usually results in something I try out actually meeting those expectations and ending up liking the series. (I thought Gurren Lagann and Gravity Falls were going to be overpraised crap before I got in to them, and now I can barely stop shoving them in to everything. On the other hand I thought Star Vs the Forces of Evil sounded like something I would really like but I gave it a few episodes and kind of put it on hold because it didn't really hook me in like those other creator-driven shows it's often compared to did (I don't think it's even remotely bad by any means, just not my sort of thing). On the third hand I thought Steven Universe sounded interesting and I did end up genuinely liking it.) I'm really not fond of graphic violence or jump scares. I don't know why, but in my opinion the funniest stuff is something that's spectacularly bad in all of the right ways, whether by intention or not. ("So bad it's good.") The scarriest stuff involves bugs. I like them individually, but screw swarms of them. Seriously. (I know, ironic, seeing what video game franchise is in my current username.) Depending on the story I'm doing I either tend to kill off a lot of characters or pretty much kill off nobody at all. There's little middle ground. Right now I'm doing a lot of the latter, but expect the former to creep in. Especially in my original fiction. Quick note: There seems to be a glitch where viewing this profile under the "permanent name" url will underline everything after the first bullet list. I think this happens with all bullet lists. Or bullet lists with links in them. Edit, this glitch seems to be happening right now even under the temporary name. But it's not in the source when I edit it. Huh. Double edit, I don't think it's a glitch, but rather some sort of spam-filtering. I read that the private messaging system will not allow links to anything other than this site or fictionpress. I guess it also applies to profiles. Speaking of plural pages: I made the following TV Tropes pages for my garbage (in order of the fic's creation date). Just go to TV tropes, go to any page, and replace the "Main / " with "Fan Fic / " minus the spaces (Webcomic / in the case of Sweet Jade and Hella John), then write out the titles as spelled without any special characters. HUC, SJAHJ, CSU (Don't ask me why this seemed like a good idea at the time), TZ, and HHC also have their own character sheets. I accept criticism as long as the points brought up make sense. Mindless bashing I don't like. Although, if you do bring up something you don't like, chances are I'm well aware of that flaw but never actually get to working on it. (TZP fails with Bridgette and Gwen's characters, can't really find its genre quite yet, and Ezekiel's character seems to fluctuate between calm, planned host and terrible ameatur, for example, and that's of one of my favorite fan fics.) I also plan on critiquing other fan fics through reviews. Mostly ones with glaring flaws. I used to mainly go through the Total Drama fandom and look around for competitions. Except app stories, yet I'm trying to get into them. Now I just browse around for anything in the event that I may find a story with a premise that catches me in. So far I haven't found too much luck, but it might be because I'm a pretty picky reader. I don't review often, but I will respond to almost any review to me. Here's a guide: - The comments to the review will be at the bottom of the most recent chapter (even if the review is directed at an earlier chapter), between the footnotes and the closing AN. This profile is still under construction. One reason being is that I plan on adding sections for every fan fic series I'm working on. Note to Total Drama writers: (Or maybe, but I hope it doesn't come to this, writers of other fandoms) if you're thinking about making your first competition one where other people submitts their characters, you might want to think again. Not only are these against the site rules (I think), but half of them never go anywhere and I believe that you should practace trying to characterize either canon characters or your own OCs before taking on this concept. I'm not saying I completely discourage the idea, but the sheer ammount of these plus the general quality of most of them (several of them never even get enough apps. Take that as a warning sign) makes me want to put a warning like this out there. Profile as of 1/4/2019 (If the "profile updated" says otherwise, it probably just means that I only made a quick update. Quick enough for me to forget about this.) For future reference, I just want to get out of the way that nothing I write is a reference to Puella Magi Madoka Magica or Neon Genesis Evangelion. You'd know if I'm referencing something if I do it a lot and it's painfully obvious. FAVORITE works of fiction (In order to gaining interest): Mario series, Pikmin series, Total Drama, Homestuck (no, I have zero interest in Hiveswap, don't bother asking), Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Steven Universe, Gravity Falls, The Binding of Isaac. Things I only have a mild interest in (or just really like, but this list is what I REALLY like) aren't here, but instead on... Other things I like (In no real order): [Will complete] Sonic games (though I have not really gotten any of the recent games; not that I believe in the negative reviews or anything, it's just that I've never been that interested in getting them), Ed, Edd n Eddy, Adventure Time before it got boring, Homestuck before it basically used its meta commentary as an excuse to avoid being well-written, Clarence (I ended up liking this a little more than I thought I would, and I just flipped to this via Video on Demand because there was nothing else to watch and... well), Minecraft, Terraria, Dwarf Fortress (my first fortress is on its third year and lasting a lot longer than I thought it would... it's still ongoing). "I'll get to trying this out" list: Phineas and Ferb, Rick and Morty, I guess just about almost everything that's been mentioned in SBIG except for the stuff like Halo and Ren and Stimpy. "Get that thing away from my face!" list: Modern Simpsons (I have very, very rarely laughed at the entire show's - regardless of season - humor. However, the older episodes used to have heartwarming and interesting moments that I really liked. Now though, they've dropped the more human aspects of the show in favor of being "wacky" and "recent" with the only real attempts at being emotional being Homer and Marge reconciling for the umpteenth time, and as a result I think the whole show just became an earsore.) Goals (when it comes to writing stories and stuff): To confuse so many readers that they set up a wiki in hopes of deciphering my stuff (it could even be ironic, joke-y, and mean-spirited; I'd just like to see "Professor Dove" or "Lawyer Guy" link to valid Wikia/Fandom pages some day); to convince some people to not write copy-paste stories; to inspire something else but not like a copy-paste ripoff (mostly I just want something like Gifocalypse or Journals or (the new/upcoming) Bl:oodswap to exist but without me putting the effort of writing them); to publish some MUGEN characters; performing a "Colbert Bump" to something obscure; oh yeah, and most importantly, complete world domination. Works Summary: My stories can definitely be described as crack, fan fic or original, but at the same time they're really consistent internally (even the stuff that's outright bad on purpose) and it's just not in my nature to go full whacky random lololol. Believe me, I actually tried with the original Sweet Jade and Hella John, then for some reason I felt the need to tie it all together, resulting in a mess of a plot. Fan Fiction Stats: Published/Working on: ("Top priority" means it's currently the project I'm focusing most on.) (EDIT: Really soon I'm gonna zap a good chunk of the "writing" list for stuff that, let's face it, obviously isn't coming out any time soon. I haven't done it right now since I just semi-recently got rid of a lot of stuff and reworked this to fix a really, really annoying glitch with the formatting that ate up bullet lists and turned them in to gigantic, underlined text chunks. I'm just flat-out exhausted and looking at all these dumb idea I'm not willing to write anymore at all is making me even more exhausted.) The Eds' EDventure (TEE) [COMPLETED] -- Part of the "SBIG" (Pronounced... well, "Sbig." As one word.) series. Random parody thing. Eds Vs Kids. Possible future stuff I haven't started working on (This list is remade from scratch because the old version had, like, nothing but stuff I completely lost interest in): Yeah, total crap. I know. A. Perhaps permanently, but I don't want to list a fan fic as "discontinued" unless I am 99% certain. Why are these fics listed here? Well: Intermissions: Innapropritate and disturbing, in general not very funny. They so far read more like a rejected Family Guy episode than like HUC or HHC. I already transfered one joke (the reader reacting to a bunch of trolls and their head exploding from the number of them) from the first intermission to Housestuck Hurrcain Crconikals. And the plot of the first one is sorta gonna be done in OT32 Shenanigans. I might publish the rough draft of the chapters just so that people could laugh at what I once considered comedy. TDWTR: (This refers to the old version) The first and for a while only indefinite-hiatus story that I've published (and that's actually part of the reason why it's on indefinite hiatus), I find it to be a flat-out embarassment. Moreso than the SBIGtermissions mentioned just above, since TDWTR was 100% sincere while SBIGtermissions was just something I wrote out of frustration towards Homestuck's Midnight Crew Intermission. The plot makes no sense, every major character's personality is butchered (Ezekiel is a competant evil mastermind, Harold is a calm and planned genious, almost every other male is a hormonal idiot, etc., and that's not even getting started on how the girls turned out), every chapter except Japan has a stupid "action" scene that just plain doesn't fit with Total Drama, the four chapters that have been published have way too many "screw yous" towards the fandom (complete with twisting Sierra's character so that she's a "parody" of something I barely researched at the time) and in general the style just isn't something I like - line this up with my other story ideas, published fan fics or unpublished original or fan fiction, at it sticks out like Hank Hill in a field of Pikmin. At first I was just stuck on this one scene at the beginning of chapter 5 where every alliance is supposed to have a massive meetup but now I'm really starting to doubt this story. If I were to update, I would want to fix the first four chapters, which will require an amount of effort that I just don't want to put into this. (Complete with redoing a good chunk of the plot since Ezekiel is OOC-ly good with his plans.) If you really want to read a competition by me, try reading Total Zeksmit Plains. While the backstory's kind of weird and Host-Ezekiel is cringe-worthy, I try to make everyone more true to themselfs than I did in TDWTR. However, this huge rant is kind of outdated because I kinda remade this. But I still want to keep the rant, because it does kinda adress my issues with TDWTR. Onionstuck: Idea would generally take a ton of effort and time to work on even if I made it a text-only or text-mostly adventure, however the premise is stupid, the writing is godawful even by my standards, the characters are unoriginal (Oliver is too much like Karkat, SI is too much like sober Gamzee or if you squint Vriska, EB is too much like Calliope) and I can't really care enough about them to make them different, and many of the suggestions I've gotten are joke suggestions part of a meme completely unrelated to the comic, and for that matter completely unrelated to even Homestuck or Pikmin themselves. In an unrelated note, looking back it's hard to believe that this pre-dates... mmm... Movie Day at least, since I've had that idea for a while. SIMPSONS: Just plain dumb. Would be like SJAHJ only less complicated, having more confusing systems, and being taken a little more serious later on. Which I wouldn't exactly reject -- but I sure as hell don't want a Simpsons fan fic to be written like this. I could transfer this to a Total Drama crackfic, however... (Or anything. I'm especially leaning toward King of the Hill, but it runs the risk of being "The Hill King (see above) with more of a plot." Just not Homestuck because I'm already writing enough fan fics of that.) TSC: Housestuck Hurrcain Crconikals (and, to a lesser extent, Hecksing Ulumate Crconikals) already covers the "parody fandom cliches" thing with more subelty and a lot more of an enjoyable, real plot that's not 100% focused on romance. And yes, HHC is actually subtle compared to my draft of TSC. Notice: I am officially retiring characters from Simpsons in SBIG, and hell possibly other fan fics unless the continuity requires it via Grandfather Clause (IE updating an old story where they already appeared such as SJAHJ, HHC because HUC said Homer would be reincarnated into Hank Hill and that's actually going to be something that occures on screen in HHC through Homer's ghost. Well... actually that's the only example. HHC is the last time you will see me write something Simpsons in SBIG, perhaps). I simply despise the newer seasons that much. EDIT: Eh, maybe not. That was a really stupid rule anyway. Homestuck related stuff (temporarily got rid of the Total Drama section because it's outdated, I haven't seen the series in years, and my dumbass younger self wrote that back when I thought TZP was a good idea) (also spoilers): Favorite characters: Basically Rose and Jade rule and so do most of the other handle users. I don't really like any of the exiles or their plots or whatever so sue me, I've always leaned more to the characters who have actual, consistent dialogue. (...Through talking or typing. I know the exile commands were a thing but that's not often enough.) Least favorite characters: I'm not counting "intentionally flat characters you're not supposed to like." Gamzee (Outright admitted as a walking plot device, pretty much just a diablos ex machina reason for Nepeta and Equius to die, and his stoned personality is mostly a reference to a meme. He's an even worse offender of the "It turns out I was behind everything!" schtick that Vriska had for a while) and Aranea (pre-Ring of Life she just struck me as an exposition bot when Act 6 already had a huge problem with exposition dumping and didn't really have that much development that didn't revolve around Meenah, post-Ring of Life she kinda feels like some fan fiction attempt at writing Vriska while knowing very little of her character). I'm very iffy on Lord English: I personally think he's an incredibly dull and mostly generic villain with some extremely flimsy ties to the main characters (yeah I'm even counting Li'l Cal) but after ordering the characters on this old topic on the now-dead MSPA forums I don't actually rank him that low. I found Caliborn's dialogues with Hussie's self insert and Dirk to both be entertaining, but aside from that I think he's kind of an underwhelming villain. Favorite pairings: I don't know anymore. Least favorite pairings: Vriska/Tavros, PM/Jack (Even in blackrom; he freaking killed her friend and former boss, like, no). I don't have anything against Jade pairings in general but I will say I don't like the idea I'm getting that some parts of the fandom think/thought (the fandom's a lot smaller now) that she's some kind trophy that Karkat or whoever has to coddle and protect and Jade's sole purpose is keeping Karkat or Dave or anyone happy. Come to think of it, am I a jerk for saying I'm good with Dave/Karkat soley mostly because it means it would disprove that one weird theory that Jade is some kind of "parallel" to the Disciple? POST-EPILOGUE EDIT (this is the only part of this "section" so far that's edited from the Epilogues) WITH EPILOGUE SPOILERS: Yeah I think Jane/Jake is a contender for one of the worst pairings now, up there with Vriska/Tavros but still not as bad as Jack/PM. Did I play Hiveswap or the Friendsims? No and I currently don't have any interest. I am however somewhat morbidly curious about the Skaianet Systems ARG and I'm in the middle of reading an archive of the history of B1. As of this specific edit I took a small break around... I think the 1930s? I'm right before the section that's before the WWII part. Also WWII plays a part in Homestuck's lore now so I never thought I'd say this but Housestuck Hurrcain Crconikals has slightly more in common with canon than I thought. Don't read Housestuck Hurrcain Crconikals by the way, it's terrible. Gravity Falls related stuff (spoilers here too): Favorite characters: Stan (might come off as a surprise given how he's done pretty much nothing in Journals so far, isn't in Spooky's, and spent most of Gifocalypse kind of being kidnapped; but hey, he's complicated and a badass with funny B-plots, I like him), Bill (as an antagonist; it's refreshing to have a villain in general that's neither a complete joke nor that just boils down to "I'm super powerful and I want to kill everyone just because, now here's a ton of traits just to make you HATE ME," and also he's got this cool thing where he uses knowledge as his main weapon for most of the series), probably a lot more but I feel like actually thinking out the reasons. Least favorite character: Mabel (To simplify why, from around "Love God" onwards she kind of became like a 12 year old girl-version of Hank Hill near the end of his series, "Blah the story paints me as right when it actually counts, I get wrist-slapped when I do screw up, my family should bend over to do what I want." I heard that there's a graphic novel and stuff that addressing these issues, and that's a good thing. It's a good thing for a series to pick up and address its flaws, especially going the extra mile when the show itself is over. No sarcasm or negativity there). Fav pairings: Stan/Goldie for the win, the guy has an amazing taste in coin machines. Least fav pairings: Bill/Dipper (I've talked about this too much in the original/"current" Journals, go there if you want a rant on it), any Pines/Pines (when it comes to fiction I'm normally eh towards incest if it's consensual but Dipper and Mabel are not only twelve they're based on the creator and his actual sister, and Stan's based on his... uncle? Ford's not based on Hirsch's relatives but still that's way too close to shipping real-life people, no), really any pairing in general that is written to involve a love potion (looking at fan fics here... you can also probably tell my least favorite episode from this list alone). I should also probably drop the jokes for a second and clarify that I do believe Soos and .GIFfany would be a horrible matchup, but I don't think anyone really pairs them up unironically anyways (and the two fics of mine where they do end up in a relationship are intentionally poorly written; one is the same story that shamelessly rips off Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann and The Legend of Zelda at the same time, almost kind of like what would happen if those Seltzer and Friedberg movies were meant to be taken seriously. The other is basically me trying to pave the road for my other stuff where I just flat-out turn my filter off, like Ordinarily United and _Roy). (THEN AGAIN since every single one of my Gravity Falls things so far is tagged with .GIFfany I might eventually end up with some people who are a bit more defensive of her coming at my metaphorical door. "Misaimed fandom" and all that.) For that matter, I might as well also include that no, I don't think of anything serious about .GIFfany and Melody or Melody and Rumble. Or Soos and Rumble, for that matter. Just keep the human with the human and maybe (they literally fight each other a lot, so I don't know) the video game with the video game. Steven Universe related stuff (spoilers three): Favorite characters: Garnet, Amethyst, Connie Least favorite character: Ronaldo (He somehow manages to not only be an unfunny Dale Gribble, but also pulls that off in a show as well-written as this. How is that even possible?) I'm also not a big fan of Onion. Fav pairings: I'm just kind of drawing blanks here, I don't know. Least fav pairings: Are the fans still doing that thing where they write Jasper as some kitten and write her in lovey-dovey friendships with Lapis or something as though none of that bad stuff she did with the other Gems happened? If so, then that. But I actually wouldn't mind her getting a redemption arc or something. King of the Hill related stuff (spoilers four- pffft): Get used to King of the Hill because it's definitely going to be one of my "running gag" lists. Favorite characters: Dale and Boomhauer (moreso the former), for bringing in a lot of the best humor and the former having really entertaining plots or subplots. Least favorite characters: Bill when he gets too creepy and thus kind of shoot any sympathy I'd have out the window, Hank when he gets too "better than you" according to the narrative, Cotton when he exists in the show, Peggy when she gets too arrogant, and Lucky. Lucky in general. I know the word "ruined" is tossed and used a lot, but if you can trace this show's downfall from a funny comedy to mediocrity leading to its ending to just one character, then yeah, Lucky ruined KOTH. And a bit of Hank too. Fav pairings: Pfft... to be serious, I'd like to make some kind of joke here, maybe involving Sephiroth, but my mind's blank right now. Least fav pairings: I really didn't like it when Luanne was up with Lucky but I'd hardly say this is related to shipping so much as just flat-out bad writing. Becides, this section is kind of for "any couple with a slight following that doesn't sit well for me," not as much just canon. run:gifocalypse and the recent invasion of nekkid .GIFfanys: So some pink-haired jerk is stealing screentime in my Gravity Falls fan fics, and perhaps worse is that she's brought a bunch of OCs that act nothing like her with her. You might have noticed that, just a hunch, that someone who is not a main character and was limited to one episode is getting roles that are normally given to main characters. To break character for four sentences (or the rest of the paragraph, for those not keeping track), I'm not normally interested in fan fics that feel like they're a hair's width from being their own original thing, which is why I'm making Emazh In to expand some concepts and characters without it having to live up to the title "a Gravity Falls fan fic" that barely seems like such. I've heard people doing something similar to that with characters such as Sans from Undertale, with all these AUs that only focus on Sans and various alternate Sanses. However, I want EI to be perfect, and in order to both prepare it to be so and just in case EI actually sucks raw sewage (which is the most likely possibility), I'm still having fun with writing the .GIFfany copies. Honestly, "because I'm having (a tiny bit of) fun with it" is the reason why I haven't killed Total Zeksmit. Anyway, because of this toxic infestation of sexualized (to avoid any ambiguity, I'll confirm this right here: THE .GIFFANYS IN MY FICS ARE INTENTIONALLY SUPPOSED TO BE "SEXUAL" TO SOME DEGREE. IF YOU TELL SOMEONE "Er uh um, what makes you think that they are sexualized? Er eh um, the fact that they have boobs? Er eh um, this is literally the exact same thing as all those times Stan is around in his underwear and you're just being sexist because Stan doesn't have boobs" AFTER READING THIS THEN YOU ARE KIDDING YOURSELF AND A CERTAIN CHARACTER IN ORDINARILY UNITED WHO CALLS HERSELF "HOODIEATH" WILL BE RETROACTIVELY MAKING FUN OF YOU) AIs is everywhere, I have taken the time to document the virus in an attempt to purge it from the system altogether. This might screw up some stable time loops I've written and retcon several whole stories off the Internet, but this is supposed to be about the Pines family and their growth over the summer. Not about some waifus with random superpowers. Anyway, I've discovered some things about them, all put together in the Guide to Avoiding and/or Navigating the Antics of .GIFfany Miyazumi/Watch: If you are going to read any Gravity Falls fic by me so far (first written December 19 2017), you should probably start with the root of the infestation, run:gifocalypse. I'm not just saying that because I am proud with how that story turned out (it has a ton of flaws and bad writing at some points, but I still think it's lightyears ahead of my other stuff barring the brilliant Hecksing Ulumate Crconikals), I'm saying that because it introduces the "professors" at a nice, slow pace. And one at a time, instead of cramming them all in at once. The chapter "Game Complete," as said in the story itself, is optional. So is the bonus, actually. I hate how that turned out. I have also compiled a general information list of the, on average, more powerful copies. They go by different names and terms, but the one in the origin to this madness was "professors." I would also like to state that this section may ruin the enjoyment of those masochists who want to dive head-first in to run:gifocalypse with no prior knowledge, since many of these professors were kept a secret by the narrative until their introduction. (Another reason why I would recommend RunGif first is because the other stories casually spoil the whole roster.) With that being said, however, I will try to be as spoiler-free as possible. "Color" refers to their hair and eyes, and their associated color. It's not their overall palette (that does, however, apply for Emazh In). I'm using the Wikipedia names for these colors, so "violet" is actually a bright blueish color with half as much red as it has blue. "Number" is their generation order. In order of their domains in RG: Rose (Number: 2222222; Color: Green) is a botanist. Appears ridiculously kind by .GIFfany standards, but there is some darker side to her. All of the professors have altered their ability to move through electronics in to moving to other forms of matter. Rose has specialized in doing this with plant matter. Ideally these would be seen as very barebones and basic descriptions for them, they're kind of supposed to be stupididly complicated for offshoots of a monster of the week in a two-season Disney children's show (like, maybe not quite Homestuck levels of depth, but that is a goal), you can be the judge after reading RG if you think they're one-dimensional. I also had a list of changes from the old gifocalypse to the new .GIFfocalypse (yes, writing them with different capitalization and the like was intentional) but eh. This formatting glitch basically turned all my bulleted lists in to massive underlined chunks so it's difficult to tell what is what and I put off fixing this page for months because of that. Becides, the new RG has started already, so you can see the changes in the only chapter that exists now while future changes are spoilers. I might bring back the list for archive's sake. To (semi-)break character from here until the end: "Fan you're so in to .GIFfany what do you think about Doki Doki Literature Club it's basically .GIFfany isn't it." (also spoilers for DDLC, or "Dilk" as I like pronouncing it when I'm high off being sleep-deprived) "I'm asking because you had this weird joke of pretending it doesn't exist in RGR's opening notes." That joke is because I have very mixed feelings about DDLC. Putting it bluntly I'm not sure if I want to even reference it respectifully, reference it as a joke at its expense, or just continue what I have been doing and pretend it doesn't even exist (however I will pull a Spooky's Jump Scare Mansion with their "FNAF Specimen" if kids get really annoying and insist that I have to reference it. Look up Otto the Otter and you'll see what I mean). I'm with the group of people who legitimately thinks that Act 1 is the best part of the visual novel, implying issues with characters who at first just seem like perfect anime cookie-cutters, using poetry creatively to examine the character (and cool poems in general), and as others have said treating things fairly realistically. To avoid going to a huge nitpick rant, Act 2 (technically the very end end of Act 1 too) just honestly feels to me like a bad creepypasta that throws subteltly out the window and relies too much on horror cliches to be disturbing. And Act 4 kind of slightly implies with Sayori getting up on time and everyone getting along completely fine that somehow Monika was either able to erase their problems entirely or they never had them to begin with until Monika added them via file-tampering... and the whole file-tampering thing in general is a plot point I don't like at all. It gives me Homestuck flashbacks with the Condesce and Jade and Jane. (Also, MC at one point literally says something along the lines of "this isn't a video game where you can just go back so it doesn't happen," another nitpick but first of all who reacts to what he saw in that particular moment that way, second of all isn't that what happens in Act 4 anyway?) Basically it depends on whatever the heck will follow after it. If Act 2 was just some way of getting more press and name in it because otherwise who would want to get in to a story about just normal people with depression issues and abuse and DDLC's successor is heavily character-focused and it's to DDLC what Deltarune looks to be to Undertale then I'll feel like an ass for planning something in UPOIC2 if the points I didn't like get nullified/addressed. (You'll see what I mean when UPOIC2 comes out in 2333.) But if it's really just a prologue to some kind of 100% shocking horror story and Act 2 was an indicator of what kind of "horror" there will be and this is just going to be the next Tattletail or Hello Neighbor (yes, I deliberately picked a game with a flash-in-the-pan fanbase and a game that apparently got sank by its own hype, I'm an asshole) then, frankly, count me out. Horror was never really my genre, ever. I don't like being scared, I'm such a wimp that I can't even handle freaking Minecraft I mean those noises that Spiders make when they crawl around is awful. I hear a Spider and my immediate knee-jerk reaction is to rip off my headphones (but I never do) and not even try to engage in melee combat just take out flint and steel and light that dang thing on fire immediately kill it kill it I hate anthropods so much and I'm getting sidetracked. "What about Yande-" No. Frick no. Frick no. Just... in light of "recent events" (look it up, I don't want to get involved with the drama, typing the first few letters I had there might just give you everything anyway), hell fricking no. I didn't even type that "game's" full title because I don't want to be hunted down by people weaponizing Google (if that even works that way with this site, I have no idea). I regret naming two extremely minor characters from the old RG after two minor characters in that, even after one of which was removed from the "game." I know I'm trying to tone down on sounding like a ranter, but... NO. Bobby Hill Gets Hit by a Car-Related: Eh. More to come later. After zapping TZ's section because TZ is stupid, the TDWTR section because that's on hold for a while, and Crconikals and SJAHJ because of the underline list mess that I frankly do not want to try fixing up, I don't want RG to be the only thing with its own section here. Basically it's a surreal parody of harem stories in general and the "everyone is a hot chick except for the male lead, even canonical-dudes are gender-bent" sub-genre specifically. But that's just a surface for some really weird conspiracy that currently involves my "Sage Lore" from SBIG. Anyway I'm actually not 100% sure what the heck to do with this, on one hand I'm tempted to break this up in to a bunch of different stories by fandom (*sigh* yes, just like the MCU, I sighed there because it's not really my thing and I'm sick of seeing references to it 24/7) and then they lead back in to BHGHBAC. Anyway, it's some grand mega-university AU where King of the Hill is one of the few "universes" with men in it, Bobby going to that university and finding that it's a linkway between a bunch of different worlds. This story does not ever fully take itself seriously (I mean, neither does anything I write, except possibly Emazh In but that's coming out in the 31st century). Final Line of Story-Writing Advice: Every time you rehash canon - just copy-paste dialogue word-for-word if you're doing some kind of remake/divergence story or whatever - you make a random kitten cry. Please don't do that. You can re-use dialogue if it's supposed to be for a once-in-a-while flashback, but I prefer a story to go in as many original directions as it can. And if you just plagiarize another fan fic or whatever, you're a flat-out jerk. |
