    Threadmarks: Sidestory: A Christmas Miracle Returns

    Oh boy, I found out what has been giving me my damned writer's block: a little side story idea that explores a little more of Hauptmann Aaron. In this case, something stolen and shattered out of spite returns whole. I lost it because Chrome was being a finicky bitch, but it has returned after a...

    Anime & Manga GATE: and so the Iron Pact Fought (GATE/Alt Time Line fic)

    Alright, status report: due to what has to be the longest bout of writer's block I've ever encountered on this one fic (note, I'm making all sorts of idea sketches but sitting down and trying to write something for this fic is just hitting a brick wall) and the events in Ukraine, the next...

    Anime & Manga GATE: and so the Iron Pact Fought (GATE/Alt Time Line fic)

    Alright, situation report. First, it's been slow going since August. I had a new job (which cuts into my time as a writer) then I went to my mom's in Washington for a week (and I wasn't happy with the results), and then RL decided to restart curbing my future-history setting notes and use them...

    Think Amon from Starcraft and you're closer to the money. Yeah, no. It is one thing for word of mouth, it's a whole 'nother thing with actual evidence (and the Stalin USSR was damn good at covering itself up, remember, the Holodomor was mostly rumor outside of Ukraine) backing said rumors. Not...

    They shouldn't, but canonically, they were. :\ You are really wanting me to spoil do you? Because of the Mad God's underling, or have you not read the paranormal organizations informative? Remember, some of the shit Stalin did couldn't be verified, hell no one outside of the top brass of the...

    Anime & Manga GATE: and so the Iron Pact Fought (GATE/Alt Time Line fic)

    Trying to portray everyone as being competent within their context and not outright holding the idiot ball (outside of extenuating circumstances mind you) is my goal and is harder than it looks when writing it. Itami's little paranormal story thread is going to be interesting, to say the least...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 7: Beginnings of Motions

    Chapter 7: Beginnings of Motions Fort Portal, Medical Center (High Security); October 3rd, 2017 Chrysalis felt groggy as she woke up from her hibernation and saw that she had been moved into a vastly more advanced version of an Equestrian infirmary… which had creeped her out a little...

    As I said elsewhere, the sort of people who would do that tend to be of the sort of narcissism and sociopathic/psychopathic that will become part of 'cause the Apocolypse'. Those that don't do that are rare as heck, and they generally have quirks that include stubbornly adhere to their...

    Extras: Informational: Demihumans: Minotaurs and the paranormal organizations in Iron Pact!Earth

    First, let's begin with the definition that the Saldarian Empire has for demihumans. Demihumans, in the official legal definition of the laws of the Saldarian Empire, are sentient beings that have both human and animal characteristics. Effectively, Anthros. Whenever a new sentient species is...

    That is informative, in the 'what sort of shenanigans Itami tends to get into' sense.

    Anime & Manga GATE: and so the Iron Pact Fought (GATE/Alt Time Line fic)

    Well, I haven't read the novel or gotten that far in the manga, so I didn't know about that. But thanks to you, there is a detailed informative coming up with the specifics of the minotaurs alongside the paranormal organizations on Iron Pact!Earth. To explain your second question, minotaurs...

    Well, yes there are female minotaurs, and their average height dynamic is similar to humanity's (an American male's average height is ~69 inches while an American female average is ~63 inches according to the CDC) but less pronounced. Just don't try to fight a minotaur (be male or female), for...

    Well, the SFW answer is the healthiest results (i.e. not cause mental degradation over the generations) are with other minotaurs and humans.

    So, here we go, and I've even got an introduction to a 'giden' story in too (although, it won't be available here). ;) Quick word of warning, the chapter is currently over 10k words in total. So it's going to be a long one. __________________________________________________ Fort Portal...

    There will be a major sea change for the Empire, and the true and tried 'occupy until the conditions of the treaty are met' is pretty persuasive in not doing funny business. It also helps that they've got a government-owned pseudo-corporation that specializes in nation-building in their back...

    So, status update: I now have a job at Subway! So far it has been consisting of 6-hour days so I won't have as much time doing my writing as I would usually. At least I've got a job and going to get paid. So sorry for any delays this may cause.

    So, here is the second part of the psi-memory part of the chapter. I'm not exactly happy with it but since you guys are so patient, I have to post what I've got so far. ____ We managed to land in good order despite the circumstances, but the one thing that got my immediate attention was the...
