@Mascian
Are you going to update your kill la kill book anytime soon
Aight, story published.
Ngl I think this is my best cover for a story I've ever edited. It's a fire image if you ask me.
Alright, I need some opinions here if possible.
I'm like halfway done with the Prologue of that Yuta x ZZZ story. Now you might be thinking, "how the hell are you ONLY halfway done??? You've been writing it for a month!"
Well, the thing is that "halfway done" is already 11k+ words.
So I wanted to ask, would ya'll prefer I split the prologue in two chapters and publish what I have now, with the next part being similarly sized, or would ya'll prefer a 22k+ word prologue?
@PL0TM4V3R1CK Ayyy, glad to hear. I got some other opinions outside of Wattpad and I'm probably gonna post the half I already have a little later today.
@Mascian No worries. Though, wonder what you decided to do with the story itself and how Rika, well, came to be as she is, I guess. So, I'm very exited for the prologue.
God I'm rusty bro, writing is starting to be hard again
First chapter of they Yuta x ZZZ is coming up nicely though. Sadly, it's gonna basically be JJK 0 but shortened, and I will change a lot of things about how Yuta's bond with Rika works in order for it to make some sense in the ZZZ world (It doesn't make any sense anyway lmao)
It's gonna be long as fuck too, and I'll have to rush to write the second chapter so there's actually some ZZZ content on the fanfic. Oh well.
Yo, random question about stories in general.
Do you prefer stories that:
- use a lot of images (like to present every single important character, maybe to illustrate some fighting scenes by using gifs from the anime, by showing character outfits, to show locations, etc)
- use a moderate amount of images (Just for some characters and nothing else)
- use images (text descriptions of outfits and characters, of fighting scenes and locations)
I'm trying new things and wanted to know what would be best to use on my new story.
Possibly look out for a fanfic about Zenless Zone Zero in the near future. Mayhaps the protagonist will be someone from the Jujutsu Kaisen universe. Mayhaps they'll be someone who wields a sword and a curse. Mayhaps they'll be someone who knows a lot about love. Mayhaps I'm gonna have to come up with a way to justify their powers on the ZZZ world. Mayhaps fuck me for liking to write properly justified, non-isekai crossovers so much.
Would a fanfic with Sung Jin Woo as the protagonist technically count as a gamer fic?
@FakerTomato Just a hypothetical. I did want to do a fanfic with Jin Woo as the MC, but it'd be a crossover, and thus I'd modify his abilities n shit to fit the new world. But I have to polish the idea first.
@Mascian Kinda? But not really due to his abilities being, well, The shadows and whatnot. He does end up deleting the system so I would say no? But it depends, Do you want to do a fanfic where the MC has a system before it was deleted or do you want the 'after' where he doesn't have it due to it being deleted.
Why does my brain have to come up with a fanfic concept for every single game or anime series I play or watch. Like I appreciate the creativity but please, my schedule is non-existent already, you're making it worse.
This time is Zenless Zone Zero, which tbh, absolute banger of a game.
Yo thoughts on a future Jungle Juice x Mantis Shrimp Character?
Unless y'all got any other arthropod recommendation.
@Mascian Oh yeah, I'm aware of what they're capable of doing. If you're looking for inspirations for a character that fits this criteria, I think Terraformars is your series. It is all about using the DNA of any sort of bug/animal to fight giant cockroaches from Mars lmao.
@ZuitheRedfox That was one of my choices, actually. But since "Jungle Juice" is all about using the mechanisms of the insect's body as a human, which leads to various combinations and uses that the insect wouldn't actually be able to achieve, I thought "What's an easy choice?" The Mantis Shrimo is literally an anime protagonist in this aspect. The less interesting part of their kit is their eyes, which have 16 color receptors (all the colours in the rainbow come from our three) which can detects SO many wavelengths of light including ultraviolet. And then you got the murder sticks and clubs they have for legs. They can literally punch with the acceleration of a gunshot from a 22 caliber rifle, reaching speeds of like 20 m/s. That's like less than a second. If a person could move their arms at even 1/10th of that speed, we could throw a baseball into ORBIT. And underwater, due to this acceleration, the water around the punch boils and creates a bubble of cavitation, which bursts the instant after. So the poor thing getting punched feels the punch, and then the shockwave from the bubble, WHICH CAN PRODUCE TEMPERATURES SIMILAR TO THE SURFACE OF THE SUN along with some bursts of light (which, when translated into anime/manga/manhwa logic, is a good excuse to add visual effects). I mean they literally dismember other arthropods they punch, and can even punch through glass tanks and boots. They can split thumbs if handled incorrectly. Sorry for the long rant but like, this is the perfect animal to turn into a power for a character. Now, I'm sure the bullet ant has some similar stuff and it's cool as fuck but for now I'm sticking with the mantis shrimp.
Alright y'all, I'm gonna make an A03 account.
Safe to say, Wattpad has been heavily disappointing me as of late. Don't get me wrong, the community is amazing, and I have a ton of fun writing everything like I do.
Yet between how annoying it is to write and how my stories barely get any interaction (though this one might just be cause I'm a shit writer), I'm starting to get fed up.
So I'mma try my luck, post my shit there and see how it goes. Of course, whenever I upload a chapter, I'll do it here as well. Unless somehow I strike gold on ao3 which I heavily doubt.
Y'all can find me there with the username "Mascian" if you want.
That's all. Peace!
I have been thoroughly intimidated by browsing what's most popular in the AO3 community (Why is it JUST shipping bro). And they are thoroughly against main character OCs so I don't think the story I'm more excited to write will survive there.
I'm probably still gonna post my shit there but tbh it just feels like the kind of stories I like to write and read just...thrive and live in here, and I have to live with that.
Though if any of you all know a site that might be...more suited for these kinds of stories, please let me know, I'd greatly appreciate it.
