I've been trying to think of an author's note to explain or excuse this, but I think all I can do is drop it in front of you and hope you enjoy it.

We had a home karaoke evening on Saturday!

This karaoke session was very loosely Hallowe'en themed. Sometimes we stuck to the theme; Rei opened with a magnificent rendition of 'Margaret Thatcher, Blood Snatcher' by THWACK!, and Tem's 'Hell Is Forever' from Hazbin Hotel and 'Rest in Peace' from Buffy were great fun. Sometimes we came up with loose ( Read more... )

It's time for one of those posts where I ramble about an aspect of videogames! I've been thinking about how videogames guide the player to where they need to go.

My first experience with videogames, if I recall correctly, was the Sonic the Hedgehog games we had for our SEGA Master System II. Working out where you're supposed to go in a 2D Sonic ( Read more... )

H-how many fics is a normal number of fics to write when you're only a fifth of the way through the game?

Here's another Strohl/protagonist fic for Metaphor: ReFantazio, in any case, because there are not enough fanworks for these two. I realise 'the game has only been out for a week and nobody's had time to finish it' is a pretty solid reason for ( Read more... )

I've been thinking recently about silent protagonists ( Read more... )

I was not at all psychologically prepared for how weird the release of the Silent Hill 2 remake would be.

The original Silent Hill 2 permanently rewired my psyche when I was sixteen. It's responsible for half my taste in fiction. So many of the characters I love, so many of the things I've written, they can all be traced back to James Sunderland. ( Read more... )

Having written a couple of Ace Attorney fics lately, I've had Ace Attorney on the mind, and I've just managed to unearth a bunch of Spirit of Justice notes I never posted here!

I wrote these about four years ago, so I've completely forgotten the context for some of them. Rereading these notes is a puzzling experience!

( Long-overdue notes on Ace Attorney: Spirit of Justice, up to somewhere in the fifth case. )

I very much seem to be in my 'only one bed' era at the moment. No idea why this is happening, but, hey, I'm having fun ( Read more... )
