Critical hard drive failure imminent rn so I’m trying to save everything I can before my hard drive dies, I should have suspected as such when my hard drive began to stop updating how much h free memory was left as it’s been stuck on 1,28 free gb for past five months… shoot

On the bright side, I backed up my game saves, stories, and school related files. So no setback in progress on the bright side. I could not back up the 120+ GB of anime that I acquired in search of the one piece, if you catch my drift. But it was a sacrifice that had to be made.

Murder Drones episode 8 came out

UnknownG11

@PhantomEnderman Yep, a season 2 would be nice to have given the amount of unresolved questions. I'm still curious about the origins and actual goals of the solver. Is CYN and the Solver separate or the same? Was CYN's goals different? But I agree, the show was something special, one of the best shows I ever watched. Fit a niche I never knew I needed.

I am still alive! Had my surgery last month and settled some things. It was an agonizing first few days afterwards. I've pretty much recovered now. As for plans, the react fic's update wasn't made on the date I wanted... as per usual lol.
          
          In the meantime I saw some breakdown analysis of the episodes in the meantime on places like YouTube, Reddit, or fanfiction comments. I realize that, oh crap, this is OOC! Not going to rewrite for the time being, focusing on getting it done first, rewrite later. Been thinking about EP4, looking at the events, going over community analysis posts, trying to find out what the proper reactions would be given its chaotic portrayal of the characters. The comedic/shock moments kill the momentum at times, but I guess my humor's kind of degraded.
          
          I've got a solid idea now of what to write, as I want to avoid any further pitfalls given how so much of Murder Drones has subtle details, but re-watching the show in its entirety had me notice the pacing issue. How V became friends with Lizzy, Doll made a deal with "Tessa", Uzi mastering the solver powers off-screen. I get it's probably her "Genes/Code" as Nori was pretty adept if the picture was meant to imply that.
          
          Some episodes felt a bit slow paced like EP2, then you have EP4 which felt confusing in it's portrayal of worker drones. EP5 has me, wondering how much was the truth. Some write it off as a fabrication of AbsoluteSolver, a fake memory where there is no CYN it's just a diversion the solver created to mislead us. Some say it's a corrupted memory played like a VR game, interacting with the memories.
          
          We know the Galla Massacre happened, we know Earth went boom, but the exact how it happened is still unknown. Did CYN really do as she did? Did N really get tied up outside? N had a memory of CYN with human hand in her mouth. Did he live initially? Was he never chained up outside during the real incident? Questions that sadly might never be answered in canon.

So, update. I'm likely to be largely taking a break from writing. It's been a busy month, still have to sort out some things  and fix my sleep schedule. Been getting less and less sleep, which is going to be detrimental if I can't sort that out. Got to a point I can't even focus writing my own stories, my mind's too tired to even write anything solid.
          
          I decided to say it now, I'm going on break, better to say it now than just vanish for the next (hopefully few) months. I'll probably resume writing in the summer. Got a rather busy year ahead of me. Especially as spring ends, the time of enrollment and filing out what's necessary to get my diploma. I have to get that settled before doing anything else. Can't fumble the ball when I'm this close to the goal.
          
          I'm ever grateful for all the support and understanding I've been receiving, you've all inspired me tremendously. Hopefully I'll some new chapters done in the summer. For now, I'm going to have to shelve writing until I get my biggest obstacles out of the way.

@MonoMurder234 It's alright, I understand sick days on a personal level 100%.  I'm grateful for your help beta-ing my work. It's surprising to hear you consider me a friend, and it doesn't cause me discomfort. I'm glad helping me out with my drafts helped you expand your skills, as your advice has similarly helped my own skills. I'm not sure if I'd be able to live up to the definition of a friend though. As we've only spoken about the drafts of my stories and my general inactivity on the internet for long periods while I work on my story drafts in my spare time.
            
            I'm not likely to be active all the time like a good amount of the authors and frequent readers on the internet. I'm often occupied with college/university work and have plenty to keep myself busy during most of the days of the week. It's why my upload schedule is very inconsistent. I feel I'm not quite what some would consider a friend. Given my general inactivity and more workplace relationship I've been trying to maintain with folks given my general lack of consistency in maintaining contact.
            
            I'm happy to consider you a friend, I just feel I'm not as active as most friends on the internet often are. My life's always filled with work in some capacity. With my free time's divided among multiple hobbies. You've voluntarily helped me beta my stories, and I am grateful for your continued help in that.
            
            You'll have to forgive me for being inactive. I'm not always available so I understand when people have to take a break for health reasons or otherwise. We're all human, we all have our chores, jobs, and whatnot to do in our lives. Sometimes we get sick because stuff happens, be it spoiled food, badly cooked food, or allergic reactions. I understand the need to rest. No use overworking to the point of no return for something that doesn't matter much in the grand scheme of things, if you can wait, best to wait rather than rush. Unless it's an emergency of some sort.

Still working on the interlude for Murderous Drones React, initially I wanted to just get it over and done with it... but that would defeat the purpose of character development through an interlude. I wanted to see if I could even develop some side characters, like Lizzy and Doll. Mostly Lizzy. Doll is still holding importance to the plot, but Liam answered in Q&A the other worker drones won't really be brought up much in EP7-8. So it paves the way for me to assume some things like how Lizzy befriended Doll despite their vast differences in personalities. Of course, Uzi and Lizzy won't just become friends from their talk. In my headcanon I don't think Uzi was bullied severely like in the more dark angst fanfics. There's also how Uzi's a fighter. She retaliates to more physical attempts like bring tripped. She can take verbal mocking, unless it brings more close to home topics. She can take insults towards her, but back in the day I was thinking Nori, would be a sensitive topic. Though since she's practically unknown, even to Uzi, I doubt anyone else even knows Uzi had a mom to begin with. So Lizzy here isn't as much of an asshole. She hasn't poked fun at the fact Uzi's motherless, openly that is. And the worker drones are starting to become more reactive and used to being around the disassembly drones without worry of being dismantled.
          
          On another note, two of my wisdom teeth are developing wrong. One is pressing up against a nerve, the other is going to grow out the side. So I'm gonna get them removed over the summer. Joy. Just had a couple of sick days prior, and was drafting up ideas for how to continue the interlude. Because the interlude just can't be small talk. Got to develop the characters, move the plot. With a bonus of them reacting to some other "dimensions" like Dead Space, HL Alyx (ParryGod), Peep in the Big Wide World. The latter is there so I can whiplash the reactors with a sudden transition back to Dead Space. A moment of cruelty lol.

@UnknownG11  What is the progress of the next part  ? Just asking. 
            All that college work must be a pain in the neck.

@Zylsans Yep! Saw it last Saturday. The action, the lore dump, Nori appearing (I legit thought she'd only appear in flashbacks, so seeing she's alive, and possessing an AS Parasite of all things, is amazing and speaks a lot for her willpower, or it could have been the Patch), the Patch and it's destruction by CYN/AS, Doll's terrible fate... Kind of ironic in a way, how Nori and Yeva were clearly close pals, and their daughters are rivals in the future. Truly sad. Perhaps they would have stood a better chance together like their mothers had been. But my gosh it was amazing to say the least. Heck there is no word I know that can describe it. Simply astounding!
