"Preeetty close to the end?"

If you want to read the first chapter of OFUstuck, as I've fondly dubbed it, it is now finished, beta'd, and published. You can read it on fanfiction.net, Archive of Our Own, or Google Drive.

That's all I had to say.

Happy Monday, everyone.

I didn't recognize all the characters, exactly, but that's OK; I was able to read and enjoy the Buffy/Angel OFU with minimal canon knowledge, too. Good luck and have fun writing!
How many spoilers are there? by Ailavyn Siniyash on 2014-07-28 15:46:00 UTC Reply

Really, don't read this post if you're not far into Homestuck. There are, most definitely, spoilers.

I'm in...you know what? These names are confusing me. Somewhere in Act 6 Act 5 an Intermission. Aranea just went on a long storytelling tangent on a dream-pirateship (in the middle of which there was an Interfishin to appease Meenah) and Katkat is playing therapist for Terezi and had a tantrum about a chair. Oh, and Jade and John got to the new session and Jade promptly got possessed by our dear batterwitch.

I don't want to be spoiled about stuff more than I already am, so should I wait 'till I get to the end, then read it?

Sounds like you're just past Act 6 Act 5 Act 1 x 2 Combo by Snowy the Sane Fangirl on 2014-07-29 04:06:00 UTC Reply

The names get steadily more and more confusing, and I rather suspect that they are ultimately headed for hilarious meaninglessness.

The chair tantrum was exceedingly amusing. Wait - you use a sickle - John uses a hammer - it's all falling into place... I laughed very hard.

As for the spoilers, there aren't any in this first chapter, at least not where you're at. I can't let my brother read it 'cause he hasn't got to Act 5 yet, but so long as you're through Act 5 it should be cool.

I don't think the next chapter won't have spoilers but will expect basic knowledge of... stuff... which... Yeah, you'll be good for the next chapter too, whenever it comes out.

Have taken a break from my obsessive Homestuck reading by Ailavyn Siniyash on 2014-07-29 04:24:00 UTC Reply

to read your thing. (I intend to finish the blasted comic soon, and that is a thing that will happen! I'm on page 8012, aka END OF ACT 6 INTERMISSION 5 INTERMISSION 5, which is preeetty close to the end? Right? *grumble*)

Oh, yes, that was wonderful. I think the funniest bit that stands out to me lately (as in over the past twoish days of reading), however, is during the flash [s] Dirk: Unite, when Dirk and Roxy, flying past on the rocket board thing, just sort of... scoop up Jane, who is then pulled behind them. I don't know why, but that was probably the funniest thing ever, and immediately shot the thing into my favourite flashes, otherwise composed of Cascade and [s] Attempt Rare and Highly Dangerous Showdown Combo. And oh, look, I'm rambling, what a surprise.

I'll shoosh now.

(In other news, stupid Danni, messing with my favourite. *sticks out tongue*)

You don't really think dear Mr. Hussie would abandon us with a cliffhanger so dreadful as to leave Roxy and Jake in the slammer, do you? And Jade being possessed? Why, that would be terrible!!!

(Sarcasm Alert is sarcastic.)

I found that inordinately funny also, and also am unable to explain why.

You can ramble. Rambling is fun. 😄

I'm glad you hated that bit. That was... kinda the point.

Sarcasm accepted. by Ailavyn Siniyash on 2014-07-29 06:05:00 UTC Reply

And agreed with. Although, currently, a certain cherub appears to be ruling the narrative, and I continue to tell him to storming well shut up, but to no avail. *attempts to slap him*

I ramble a lot, believe me. I'm starting to think I'd be a Light player, just on the basis of my blathering.

Karkat. Vantas. Is not. To be messed with.
Actually. Make that all beta timeline Vantases. And all the Maryams. And the Lalondes. And everyone else, really, but especially that lot.

(And the Courtyard Droll's hat is definitely not to be insulted! It is a wonderful hat, and he is right to be proud of it. Bleh.)

I just realised I forgot the 5x in that third flash name. ANCESTOR ART.

Good luck with it! by Iximaz on 2014-07-28 14:15:00 UTC Reply

I've been wanting to do an OFU for Ranger's Apprentice, but I'm not sure if I'd ever have the time to work on it. So, here's to the hopes that you'll be able to complete your OFU!

Anyway, since I'm not a Homestucker, I'm not really sure if I should read this or not since I've very little knowledge about the subject matter... Oh, what the heck, I'll read it!

I wouldn't advise it unless you think you have time by Snowy the Sane Fangirl on 2014-07-29 03:27:00 UTC Reply

Or are willing to sacrifice time on the altar of the great OFU God.

And thanks for the well-wishes. I hope I will also. Very little irritates me more than incomplete OFUs.

I must admit I'm making out to myself (and have every intention of making out to anyone who asks) that these chapters take longer than they actually do, in case I ever need more time and so that I have extra time.

You probably won't understand very much if you haven't read Homestuck, but you're welcome to read it anyway.

Have a nice day!
