It looks like there's a problem with the shipping thing.

Re: Crack Pairings II - Brain Bleach not Supplied
The story is inspired by somebody challenging me to do Miko x Redcloak, and me going a bit overboard with the idea...
I'd suggest you go back to page two and read it. But I'll summarize it for you... Xykon, Redcloak, and Tsukiko get bored, and decide to revive Miko as a Death Knight. Hilarity ensues. Drama and chatacter developement follow shortly thereafter, along with witty Demon Roach comments.
I might write the next chapter tonight, but I dunno if I'll have the time. I got a History test to study for.
Edit: Yeah, the shipping stuff just isn't my thing... I'll stick to my lovely little crack pairings, thank you.Last edited by Lycan 01; 2009-09-16 at 08:58 PM.

Re: Crack Pairings II - Brain Bleach not Supplied
So many wonderful stories, so little time to review them. Though I can already point out a little typo in Zanaril's story: "The green haired then elf closed the box full of books"
They all involve V in some way. We truly have turned V into the fandom bicycle. Not sure whether it's a good thing or not.
And I realize this thread must be very useful to whoever wants to learn more about writing fanfictions, with all the amazing stories in here.

Re: Crack Pairings II - Brain Bleach not Supplied
Discord casts Mass Review!
@Kaytara: I love it! Their relation and friendship (even if V was in "I forgot what friendship is" mode) was very well written, to the point I actually feel turning it into a romance will lessen its impact. Odd.
@Silverraptor: It's really odd to see a fanfiction written in the present tense instead of the past tense, but I like it. Now we know why Haley and Vaarsuvius bunk in the same room. (And it's Vaarsuvius, not Varrsuvius.)
@Zanaril: The kids were so cute! I feel sorry for the adult elves though. Love really does hurt.
@Water-Smurf: Amazing! I love Redcloak's train of thought (the scientist and the person especially). And Tsukiko is outrageous, as can be expected of her.
@esmerelder: Very cute. I absolutely adored this line: "Belkar, for some reason, had rabidly insisted that the elf was female ever since Azure City"
It's super effective!Last edited by Dark Faun; 2009-09-17 at 06:19 AM.

Re: Crack Pairings II - Brain Bleach not Supplied
Lemme see...what other story can I do?
Ah yes. HaleyxBlackwing.
SpoilerBlackwing was perched on a tree branch, watching Haley relax on the rock below. V had allowed him to travel to search for his food. It was so strange that of all the people that took notice of him...gave him a name was this rouge girl. He was entranced by her beauty. Without warning, his wings flapped as he swooped downward and landed just next to Haley. This startled her awake.
"Don't be alarmed." Blackwing said in his most gentleman of voice a raven could muster. "It's only dear Blackwing."
Haley's eyes widen with surprise.
"You...you're talking in Common!" she said as she got up. She held out a hand for Blackwing to perch on. "I thought V-"
"V and I resolved our differences." Blackwing said. His wide, white eyes blinking at Haley. "But I have you to thank, Miss Starshine. You gave me the name Blackwing."
Haley giggled. She raised her other hand and slowly, hesitantly, touched Blackwing's head with a finger. The bird did not resist. He bent his neck around her finger.
"I must say, that feels good." Blackwing said as Haley stroke his slender, curved back. The feeling was...majestic...euphoric. He closed his eyes with pleasure.
Haley suddenly brought Blackwing up to her mouth and gave him a kiss on his beak. Of course, since his beak was so small, her lips overtook it.
Most ravens would have already bitten Haley for this, but Blackwing? He didn't care. He was getting attention, attention he wanted all along.
"'Tis a pity you are not a raven." Blackwing said. If his beak could allow him, he'd smile. "I was searching for food and well-"
NSFW MATERIAL!!!!
SpoilerHaley gently made a nest for Blackwing with her hands and carried him to her tent. Her tent looked like a cabin room of a majestic pirate queen. Gold bags surrounded her cot (that she and Elan slept in), and on a little stool was a small bowl of cherries she bought from the market. She set Blackwing on the stool next to the bowl. She herself laid down on her stomach next to the stool.
"Miss Starshine..Th-This is marevlous!" Blackwing said, raising his wings. "Too beautiful for a simple raven familiar as I."
Haley took a cherry and held it up to his beak. Blackwing noticed that her new orange armor was more revealing than her old one. There was just something strange and disturbing about a woman with huge clevage showing offering him a berry in her tent.
"Well, enjoy." she said seductively. Blackwing put away his doubts as he stuck his beak into the berry and slowly chewed on the innards, the juice flowing down his beak and into his feathers. His eyes were closed pensivley.
"Thank you, Miss St-"
"Call me Haley." Haley said as she plucked a berry from the bowl and let it roll down her tounge into her mouth.
"Thank you, Haley." Blackwing said.Last edited by Belkster11; 2009-09-17 at 06:34 AM.

Re: Crack Pairings II - Brain Bleach not Supplied
Wow, what a treat! Zanaril, Water-smurf, Kaytara and esmerelder's pieces were all brilliant. And they're all about the elves!
I was trying to draw an Aarindarius Facepalm (after the blunder) this afternoon, but meh. I'll put a picture up later. By the way, does anyone have any tips for taking photos of drawings? Because all my photos...well, you can tell they're not really great. I wish I had a scanner.
Edit: As promised...

Re: Crack Pairings II - Brain Bleach not Supplied
I know what you mean, it's not the only obstacle, either... I'm trying to work it out. Durkon is surprisingly hard to write...
Elves have something inherently wooberiffic about them, regardless of whether they're spirited bakers, powerful archmages or genocidal fiendish gestalts. XD

Ahem. As someone who's been in your shoes... Good lighting is essential, though that can be fixed with a program... (Paint Shop Pro has "Fade Correction" which does wonders for improving the contrast) I'd also recommend setting the camera on something (a tripod, if you have it) rather than holding it. Less blurriness that way. Doing the focus manually helps too. :)

@Lycan 01, Discord and Saeyan,
*blushes* Thank you! It was my first OOTS-fic apart from a few tiny drabbles, and didn't realise how much fun it would be to write. I might have to proclaim Roy/V as my new secret ship!

Re: Crack Pairings II - Brain Bleach not Supplied
Oh, by the way, I really liked how you wrote Roy there. He was surprisingly in-character there. :) Loved the tidbit about the "Is-V-or-isn't-V?" arguments, too. XD And Belkar bursting in while looking for his can-opener.
In short, it's full of great little touches and I love the characterisation, too. :)

@Kaytara
*beams* Thanks! I love Roy, he's definitely my second-favourite (after guess-which-elf, of course).
Also, I don't post very often, but I'm always happy when you update with your drawings - they're amazing

Re: Crack Pairings II - Brain Bleach not Supplied
I think you should play up Mind Control/Xykon's Undead Control, because Miko doesn't strike me as the kind of person who would knowingly side with people she thinks are evil to get back at people she thinks are evil. As much as she hates the Order, one of her final tipping points was her conclusion that The Order worked for Xykon, so the idea that she would willingly work for Xykon to get back at the people who willingly worked for Xykon... you get the idea.

Re: Crack Pairings II - Brain Bleach not Supplied
Vaarsuvius -and by extension, I - are a bit upset right now. I will be blaming any typos on emotional distress.
Also that I'm still laughing from panel 4, which makes it hard to type.
And really, once there's more that one 'a' they tend to blend into each other. I have to squint to actually see that mistake.Last edited by Zanaril; 2009-09-17 at 12:01 PM.

Re: Crack Pairings II - Brain Bleach not Supplied
@TheBibliophile *grins and bows* Thanks to you, too!
It's just a guess, but I think it probably has something to do with all of the writers coming out of the woodwork and finding one another -- good writing tends to inspire more of the same. Just speaking for myself, until the signature banners advertising this thread started appearing everywhere, I didn't realise that OOTS-fic was going on to any large scale, and I'm really pleased to have found it!
(Incidentally, pls to ignore if this is too cheeky, but if any of the artists feel at a loose end for something to do and want to try making a Roy-snuggling-V banner, I would be deeply flattered and would probably make a number of inarticulate small squeaking noises.)

Re: Crack Pairings II - Brain Bleach not Supplied
While I agree with your opinion, I'm afraid I can't go with that course of action for one very, very simple reason.
There'd be no story.
I thought about having Xykon use mind control on her, for simple things and the like, but then you have to consider that if Xykon can control her with the little things, he'd just control her 100%. And then you've just got a Miko zombie. No fun. No fun at all...
Also, Xykon asking her to kill the Order of the Stick kinda disproves her perception of the OotS and Team Evil working together. But she has plenty of reasons to hate the Order anyway. They corrupted/worked with Lord Shojo depending on who she's talking to, they caused her to Fall by tricking her somehow in her own mind, Belkar is a being of absolute evil and by default the rest of the Order is evil for working with him, and she'll probably blame them for the loss of Azure City and the destruction of the gate. Why? Because she's crazy, and the best part of writing a crazy character is that you can go anywhere with their thought process and it is still believable to some extent.
But yes, I realize this story has a whole lot of plot holes in it. There will be gags about that, actually. And there will also be a plot device to help Team Evil seem more... relatable, to Miko.Anemoia: Nostalgia for a time you've never known.
