CiP: Purgatorio
Final Fantasy X is what people voted for, so Final Fantasy X is the crossover everyone will get.
I'm gonna have to go back and play it again to get a feel for this, because it's just been that long since I last touched it.

CiP: Fracture 9.6
And here we get back to the plot...which is why it has to remain almost blank until the bit of plot that goes into the bonus interlude has been revealed.

CiP: Bonus Interlude 9.b: Photon Liner Mundanity
So, originally, things were going to go a bit differently and we were just going to drop back into the main plot of arc 9, with a hook at the end of 9.5. But while I was finishing last chapter, my editor suggested leaving 9.5 to stand as pure fluff and doing a bonus interlude instead.
And w...

Here, have a wholesome, take-it-easy kind of chapter, a break in the gloom from all the recent tension. There's not much else for me to say, aside from that.
Enjoy, everyone.

I'm a little late to this, but I wasn't sure how things would shake out at the beginning of the month, whether all of you would still be pledging or could even afford it, so I waited.
Now that things have cleared, let me say it plainly: thank you. All of you.

This chapter took longer than I would have like, in part because it didn't want to work with me. Then, I finished it and wanted to have it out yesterday, but in trying to fix a problem with my PC (Windows Store app is broken, and is still broken) I couldn't do anything for about 8 hours....

There's something very particular I want to do with this chapter, but even with the limited amount of people who have access to this CiP, I want to keep it a secret until the end, so I won't say anything more on the subject.
One of the things I want to do is give Taylor and everyone a littl...

This one...has been a pain. More so because I haven't been able to find a good place to start it, so I've put off sharing out the link.
I think this is where it'll start, though. So 2020-03-21 02:12:27 +0000 UTC View Post
Fracture 9.3
This chapter was actually going to have a second scene in it, but then Taylor and Armsmaster chewed up a lot of space and that was that.
Can't say much more without spoiling stuff, so... Here you go, everyone. I hope you enjoy it.

So here's the whole sordid tale.

What's this? Not another Essence chapter, but another chapter nonetheless? What sorcery, with two others just a day or so ago?
Like I predicted, about half the size of a normal chapter. That was just how it had to be, when it's all introspection and trying to be vague enough that it didn't ...

I know I said I'd take this one all the way to Firelink, but that was just the perfect place to end it. If I ever decide to expand on this oneshot, I'll cover it at that point.

So... Yeah.
Not much I can say about this without getting into a lot of details and spoiling it.
Not that there's all that much to spoil, in some ways. Or rather... There's a lot of subtleties that I tried to weave into this chapter. Lots of hints and winks and nudges. No idea how man...

Still not positive this will stay, but I'm already 2700 words in, so might as well finish it, right?

So, you-know-who gave me a bit of trouble, here. (If you don't know, you will by the end of the chapter.) His part just didn't want to get written. I was also putting in work for, like, three other projects while I was supposed to be writing this, so that delayed me a little, too.

So I was thinking of how I might go about hooking the readers better for Recursive Wisdom and decided this would probably be it.

Wow. Last week was a bit rough. I...didn't get much of anything done. A thousand words or so into the Cinders short and a couple other oneshots, but mostly I was working on something else, and then there was my aunt and my mother's birthday this weekend.

Chapter 3 of Recursive Wisdom. Still starting off a little slow, but working up to the beginning of the Grail War. Exploring some more of Yukio's place in this version of Fuyuki.

So brand spanking new that there isn't even anything in it, yet.
In any case, this is the beginning of arc 9, which I've decided to call Fracture. Make of the title what you will.

This one comes much, much later than I wanted it to be out, by about a week, actually, but it makes up for it by being about twice as long as a usual chapter.
There's a lot of fluff in this one. It really feels like a lot of filler, but it serves its purpose as the bridge between arc 8 and ...

So, for sure, this arc goes to at least here. Not sure if it'll go further - I might end the arc at the end of this chapter, if I can get it where I want it to go.
