Do 'em but imagine them as that they're not canon.

They're not
So I added yet another chapter to my [URL="http://ks.renai.us/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=5538"]I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream-inspired KS fanfiction[/URL]. I'm finding it hard to believe I will be able to turn this into a full story but it's going pretty okay so far. You should read it if you like disturbing psychological and body horror.
Which, I guess, nobody should. I like writing it because people keep telling me "Wow this is fucked up why are you writing this and [I]why can't i stop reading[/I]" and I can't really answer either question. I'm like Rin: I don't know why I do things, I just do them because I feel like it. When I don't feel like it anymore, I'll stop doing it and do something else instead.
Why must you abuse my mind like this

Oh jesus that was even more horrifying than the last chapter.

But so suspenseful.

You poked my curiosity, I just read the original by Harlan Ellison. Damn. I don't really reflect a lot over what sort of things I like to read, but I'd have to say that short story was really intriguing in a weird way. I don't reflect enough over what kind of stuff I like to read, but I think this is one of those. The twisted, insanity-laced surrealism and the coldness of the tone in which it delivers suspense appeals to me in a strange, almost "sickened but curious"-sort of way.
Read chapter 1 of your fanfic as well; I find it amazing how well you managed to replicate the style of writing. I enjoyed its surreal, psychotic qualities in the same way I enjoyed IHNM. I think it was a good thing reading the original first before your fanfic, I guess it sort of braces you for the whole thing.
Fascinating.
The original is a masterpiece of writing, even though it's horrifying.

Nightmare fuel. brb suicide.
[QUOTE=Novangel;34580721]The original is a masterpiece of writing, even though it's horrifying.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, the original is great, far greater than I could hope to write at this point. It accomplishes what I think I'm far too verbose for: Writing something with a defined goal in as much exposition as possible in as little time. Ellison was able to tell the whole story of AM, and the five protagonists (I use the term lightly) in literally six thousand words.
My story is 15,000 and shows no signs of slowing down. I wish I could be that brief but every time I look at my finished writing I think about how much more I could describe and add in, and I do so, and end up with a massive story I didn't intend to write. It still works and works well, of course, but it's strange for me to read over my own writing and then read over Ellison's and think of how different it is despite being about almost the same thing.
On a different note, why isn't this in the OP yet? :v:

Choked? I couldn't read half of it between all of the waterworks.
[QUOTE=LuaChobo;34581587]Yes.
Without scripts Broujo wont go anywhere, and if it gets to the point where i say "Fuck it no-one is giving me shit i can't make this" i'm just going to release everything we have made so far. And by that i mean scripts/custom art, not the compiled version.[/QUOTE]
yokay!
just wanted to make sure so i didn't end up wasting my time

I disagree, a real writer has the ability to use words to move people, and to make them reflect on even the smallest aspects of life. You sir/maddam have done that. I'd invite you to help write katawa shoujo 2, but i think we both know that the thriller genre is where you come in sublime levels.

Horror is my favorite genre, it's great. While this game's genre (that being akin to a romance novel) is amazing and practically changed me forever, I think the creeping fear that lingers long after you see or read something that terrifies you is awesome. While I like writing in other genres, I think thrillers are where I belong.

welp. Since according to you guys Lily's arc is the best, I'll save hers for last. time to do Shizune's and Rin's.
According to /v/, Lilly's birthday is tomorrow. So have fun Lillybros.
ehehehEHEHEHEHEHEHE[B]HEHEHEHEHE[/B]
[sp]I'm not so crazy about doing Shizune's but gaming OCD has struck me again and I have to complete this game fully and unlock everything.[/sp]
Yeah don't get too hyped up over Shizune
[editline]7th February 2012[/editline]
(It's funny cos it's already 7th here)
Finally finished Shizune's arc, meh compared to the others and I shoulda saved Rin's for last (which was emotionally the best) , but while playing I had an idea. Have something I made for you guys.
