    lol Any way, yes, I do recommend checking the fic out. It's quite good. I'll give the fic a +1.
    Spoiler:
    As a general rule I hold no opinions that I have not been paid to hold.
    I am now a beta, so if you need help with a story feel free to ask.

    Words of wisdom from ItsaRandomUsername:
    "Pssh, with proper writing almost anything can be logical. If it can work believably, then there's no reason why it shouldn't.
    Please note the keywords: "proper" and "almost". Bad storytelling mixed with nonsensical couplings are the drunk-driving of literature."

    Yeah, I'm gonna go ahead and recommend Fate/Desiderantes Affectibus.

    It does interesting things with lesser-used characters and takes the traditional story in different directions that don't feel unnatural. Sayaka and Kariya actually make a pretty good pair. The story even made me root for the guy despite him normally being my most hated Zero character. Bonus points for making Lancer almost as likable as his Stay/Night counterpart. Sure it's not perfect; some of the dialogue is a bit awkward and plenty of characters are conveniently shoved offscreen to make room for the plot, but on the plus side this story avoids most of the common pitfalls of fanfiction by not having Sayaka magically fix everything, and staying true to each character.

    I work for a label company and I do a lot of typesetting. General consensus with my fellow typesetters is Comic Sans needs to be banned. Comics don't even use it any more.

    Forest is a vampire who's a bit too good for her own good and doesn't know when to leave things alone. Armed with a ridiculously large hand gun, martial arts skills, a bitching pony car, and a love for pop culture she fights the forces of evil. Urban Fantasy 80's Style.

    It was made to look like the lettering found in comic books, so the confusion it has caused just means it's a success!

    +1 Mirror Therapy, by Gramarye

    It's a short, 3k word KnK fic about Touko and her musings as she's alone, working on Shiki's arm. There's not much to say about this, but it's a nice look into Touko's character, her thoughts, and her (presumed) history.

    FYI Velsper's being working hard to get back in the swing of things.
    He released a new chapter of Eureka, the one with Frannie, Shirou & Shinji before they enter highschool, and Saturday Morning Grail War, the one he started writing before Apo even came out so it's like Apo but not really and is more of an adventure story starring Kairi, Mordred and super speshul OC donutsteel Tohsaka Hiroto as they run from the eeeeeeeeeeeeeevil Yggdramillenia who have Won and Taken Over The World.

    The only Velsper fic that exists in my eyes is Shinji not being a regular hero.

    How times flies. Maybe I should've waited four more months for the one-year anniversary of my crippling laziness.

    You know what's really damn weird? I got two people outside BL asking me "ffthread when". In a quest about boatgirls! But they called me a seiba waifufag so clearly they aren't stalking me just yet.

    Also I told them ffthread never so I must make good on my lie now.

    Some conversation came up about the fic, and how out of hand everything got. I used to find it fun but flawed, but it looks like the flaws (OOC, harem, bizarrely "rational" characters, etc etc) got out of control. Then again, it was all from hearsay, so rather than actually derec (which would mean reading like, fifty million more words to catch up), I just retracted

    That Swapping Fates story collection I recommended a while back has updated. It's not a single narrative, but each part analyzing the relationships between the various Servants and Masters in alternate Fourth Grail Wars where they've done magical chairs.

    Of the updates, Part 5 follows Kirei summoning Gilles and being creepy together. Part 6 shows us Kayneth getting the chance to summon Alexander, which doesn't get him NTR'd but poses its own challenges. Part 7 is about Hassan being summoned by someone other than Kirei, but it's mostly about a vehicle for a conversation between Hassan and Iri.

    Of the seven parts so far, Part 5 and 7 are my personal favorites.
