How many mini-Moggets are left?

New Interlude-thingy by the Irish Samurai on 2013-07-07 09:21:00 UTC Reply

Following on from one of my previous Interludes, in which Skeet and Amelia set up the mini-Mogget Adoption Agency, I now present the first part in a little side spin-off, the MMAA: Part 1 (yeah, I know - really imaginative title there!).

This piece guest stars Agent Kayleigh - thanks hS, for letting me borrow her.

And I suppose it could sort of count for the current Writing Challenge (which seems like a really cool idea to me), as Skeet wasn't expecting the visit, but I have something else in mind for that. I just have to get round to actually writing it...

I love the Abhorsenverse, and cats, so an interlude involving both of them made me far happier than it probably should.

Anyway, this was great. Can't wait for the next part.

Thank you by the Irish Samurai on 2013-07-11 19:23:00 UTC Reply

Yeah, Abhorsen is awesome, isn't it? (Of course, cats are awesome too!). I'm glad you liked it :)

Just in case you haven't found it yourself yet, the Old Kingdom page on our wiki has links to the (few) missions that have taken place over there.

There's not that many yet, but I'm certainly planning on sending my agents back there in the future.

That was great! by Ailavyn Siniyash on 2013-07-07 19:18:00 UTC Reply

I'm also looking forward to the next part.

It's very nice to see this is still going. :) I look forward to the next part!

Yup, still going! by the Irish Samurai on 2013-07-11 19:53:00 UTC Reply

In fact, the MMAA is probably going to become a non-mission oriented side spin-off, much like SeaTurtle has done with (Un)Intelligence.

I still have my notes for Sigma's adoption, so that'll be coming your way at some point too. There's just a couple of bigger projects that I'm working on at the moment, that I want to get finished first - I'm still (in theory, at least) working on a Blackout piece, and that was months ago!

So yeah, the MMAA pieces might be taking a backseat for now, but there's still plenty more to come - glad you're enjoying it.

Since there isn't a Mini/Old Kingdom page on the wiki, there should probably be one now, but I'd like to know the names and current owners, if any, of the twenty-nine minis before making it, so I don't miss any.

How many have you adopted out, and to whom?

In the line where Kayleigh pulls out the mace, there needs to be a space between "where" and "she'd", by the way. The rest looks good, though.

About 20, I think... by the Irish Samurai on 2013-07-11 20:26:00 UTC Reply

And all from that one mission too - that was a lot of misspellings.

Yeah, I'm working on the text for a mini-Mogget page, but it didn't really seem necessary until I'd got this up. The mini page should be going up sometime this weekend.

Out of interest, does it still look like that space that you mentioned needs to be inserted? I went back to the original document to look at it, but my laptop and Google Docs frequently disagree on exactly where my cursor is, making small edits like that frustratingly difficult. Anyway, long story short, after deleting a couple of other characters by accident, I was able to get it back to what I think was actually its original state, and there is a space between the words. The gap does look a little small, but that's just a distortion from the italics.

I'm glad you thought it was good.

The spacing problem is fixed. by Outhra on 2013-07-12 01:14:00 UTC Reply

It still looks a bit distorted, as you said, but according to copy-paste, there's a space there now.

All right, I'll just wait for you to set up the Mini/Old Kingdom page, then.
