    Mkay, good so far, people playing nice. You all make me proud.

    Aaaaaand to save myself from some typing for the time being (instead of addressing individual points):

    Included in recent posts are a lot of questions (understandably) from fans over the years to the tune of “why/how was Misaki/Counteractor swooned into submission by Tenchi-kami?” and “why is his own grandmother sexually attracted to him?” (and more recently “why does he sire children with the beloved mascot character?” oh, right, so far it’s only “what if?” so some backpedaling could yet still be implemented in the future). After several years of intensive study in this fandom (yes, intensive in fandom terms, I mean I did slightly more studying to obtain my BA for Washu’s sake) I can only come to the conclusion ForWashuu stated: because Tenchi. Sure, there’s supplemental materials added in subsequently to offer details or some form of explanation for these types of plot points, but when you boil it down to the bare-bones “why?” (not “how?“) the answer at the end of the day to such matters is “because he’s Tenchi.” As a character, Tenchi has gone from likeable underdog to ‘that lucky somagun’ before arriving to the place we find ourselves today. In a world with humanoid aliens and mysticism intertwined with fantastic technology, the most difficult element for me as a fan to buy is Tenchi’s unconscious, hypnotic pull over anything female (stomaching sexism of that level is the topic of another, unrelated rant, so I digress).

    Because Kami-Tenchi! It’s a joke at this point, and I would even go so far as to say Kajishima now intends for it to be that way–that, or his ego really has gone that out of whack over the years; basing a character off yourself is one thing, even if it’s the protagonist with hidden powers, but “God”? No, wait, make that “Tenchi-kami: God of Sexiness, irresistible to women’s carnal desires!” Come on, man.

    Like everyone else, that’s just my opinion and my peace. Ignore it, respond, agree or don’t, it’s all good in the hood. 8-)

    in advance if this belongs to some other locations on the forum please forgive me for putting it in the wrong place. well like the titles says im needing a little help on some short stories. i made these stories in the ranging years of 5-8th grade and i no longer have the paper copies but thats not the problem. the problem im having is i want to open it very differently compared to my usual ways. for those who have read eternal bonds neko. the opening i used for that story is my usual for the longest time and i want to change it for my two new titles. at he moment the titles are still pending but for at the moment these titles will do.

    first title is prancing wolf. this story is a Native American fantasy. the centers around a boy who was born sickly and the only way that the boy could be saved is by becoming the new nature spirit. i know i lost a few people here so let me best explain it to the best of my typing ability blush1. in this fantasy in order for nature to stay balanced before the spirit dies it has to find a host that is sickly and the host has to be young. the host can be as young as a new born but no older than 4 years of age. the reason for the host being sick or dying is because its 2 souls occupying the same space and i read that in some cultures that when the body is born sickly that it has half a soul. as the child ages the souls become one as he slowly become the new nature spirit. the problems im having with this one is the opening i want to try something new. im so used to doing the old man merlin story teller around the campfire.

    the second title for right now will be ray of hope. i know this titles aint the most creative and the reason be hind that is simple. i never gave my main character a name. when i had to refer to him it would always write the hooded man. i was thinking of giving him a name that meant light of hope or ray of hope because when he came across those who were the outcasts of society or abused he was like a ray of hope for them. this characters background is a little dark he had an abusive father and he was a little ray of hope for his mother this story is a mix of scifi and fantasy. but unlike eternal bonds where we have ET’s walking around the story is centered around our time. as a big note this story was made from my journal entries so there is a little fact in the fiction and i dont know if i mentioned it or not but this story was taken from me at a literature contest. my artist at the time drew everything i wrote very graphic. on a side note i dont know if this is important but he wears a mask from time to time. his scars are not external but more internal and that the reason for the mask.

    i thank yall in advance for reading this and giving me ideas on how to better my writing blush1

    No worries when starting a new post! Good on ya for categorizing it in the appropriate section–for additional space-saving purposes, I went ahead and moved it under this existing title (as this is for general questions/advice concerning fanfiction/writing process).

    So you say you want to start them different, but don’t know how…well, how do you mean “different” from your prior work? That could entail a lot, and since you’re looking to try something new, I think this is an excellent opportunity to explore your options! Though you may have a particular, usual approach (I think we all do) I for one think each work must be treated uniquely; I also think as part of the writing process you as the author need to enter “playtime” (yes, I’m being series) where you just try on a few different styles/approaches and see how it feels. It’s great you have the general concept nailed down: now the trick is figuring out how best to present it (I’ve been there…actually, I still am there)!

    For some of my own planned endeavors, deciding what medium to use–let alone what style/method–took a long time to peg down…years in a few cases! I’m not saying it will take you that long, but I do think you’ll have to experiment; the art of writing is really the practice of re-writing.

    When you have more specific ideas down, if you’d like you can update your post and we can try and offer additional two cents. Best of luck!

    You know what my favorite part about my birthday is?

    These past few years have been spent driving across the country instead of partying, but at least this year’s was better than the last. Either way, I appreciate the wishes. I hope none of you misbehaved while I was gone.

    Keep hangin tough, man. Another year under your belt; you’re wiser and stuff. 8-)
