App Issues Can Cause You To Be Late!

Hello, friends. Sorry this is late, I got caught up in something and yesterday I was working on posting the second chapter of my fic, Theurgy Thru Replevy. As a reminder, it’s on both ff.net and ao3. My friend and I had a good time while he was here and I’m going to visit him later in the year.

The main reason I didn’t post this weekend was that Friday before last, my text to speech app kept crashing when I opened it. I tried several things but had to delete and reinstall it. Sadly, it didn’t want to load the library saved in my cloud storage, so I’ve had to reload everything in there. I’m currently in the middle of the S section now.

Luckly, I still have my old phone with the folders that I can use as a basis as I hadn’t added many new stories to it. I did something that managed to get some of the old files on it, but I decided to rearrange and update them if I had to redo it anyway. Instead of the fics having a file for each chapter, I made sure I had all the current ones in one file using Fichub. I also put all the completed stories into a completed stories file by starting letter and putting the ones that start with ‘A’, ‘An’ or ‘The’ in order of the second word. Finally, I’m putting all the stories from a series in the same folder.

That being said, my reading list is currently shot, but I’m slowly getting back into it. The main one I’ll talk about is that I finished The Eminence in Shadow Vol 2 and moved onto Baccano! V3. This one tells the rest of the story from the previous book, starting from the beginning and filling in the holes left over. Follow the Alchemist, the Woman in Coveralls and the Rail Tracer (!) as they bring the story of the ‘Flying Pussyfoot’ to a close.

I’ll have a longer quest list to make up for it. First is Fate: Hammer Time by TedTheRabbit. This is a Fate/Stay Night and MCU slight crossover I’ve mentioned before here. MCU Thor at the end of his life sends Mjölnir to find its new wielder with all of his powers. Middle school Shirou ends up with it (though other potentials from other anime are mentioned in a way to imply they’ll get their own powers from the MCU and become kind of like the new Avengers. But not in this fic and later in the future) and he runs with it. Watch as Asgardian Shirou does his best to become the best Hero he can! It has 68 chapters and was last updated in Feb.

Second is Fate Extra: Grand Glorious Games (GGG) by SeerKing. This is a ‘Fate/Stay Night’ fic, but it’s more a semi sequel to Fate/Extra and Fate/Extra: CCC. The master, Saber Nero and Caster Tamamo have to fight in the Third Moon Cell Holy Grail War. Things are different, but it doesn’t get far. This one only has three chapters and hasn’t been updated since 2018.

Third is Fate’s Gamble by Lupine Horror. It’s a Harry Potter and Type Moon crossover that I first mentioned here. Zelretch does an experiment that ends up affecting many Harry Potters, and not always for the better. However, one ends up with Stheno and Euryale, Medusa’s sisters, in Zelretch’s universe at a young age. He becomes the Wizard Marshal’s grandson and changes his and many others’ fate. It’s completed with 88 chapters and has a sequel.

Fourth is the sequel, Fate’s Gamble Round Two by Lupine Horror. Harry’s done a lot and is asked to take the place of another counterpart that wasn’t able to fulfil the prophecy. He’s summoned with some friends, but those that summoned him aren’t getting what they expected. He decides to have fun and make some changes, for both good and bad. It’s complete, but the author wants to rewrite the whole series. Sadly, they haven’t posted anything since 2020.

Fifth is Fate’s Mistake by kb0. This is a Harry Potter 3-shot where Fate changes things the night he’s dropped off at the Dursley’s house. Things are worse for Harry until he ends up a Hogwarts, but this leads to better things happening after that. I’m not going to spoil it, but it is a Harry/Ginny story. Completed and worth a read.

Sixth is Naruto Emiya by sakurademonalchemist. The next one is actually the sequel, so this one’s first. It’s a Naruto and Fate series crossover that I’ve talked about during the last quest here. A five-year-old Naruto is found by Kiritsugu Emiya and taken in and raised with Illya. He changes many things, including how the fifth grail war goes.

Seventh is Fate/Confusion, the sequel. Naruto drags all the survivors of the fifth grail war into an alternate fourth war. It’s odd but only has three chapter and hasn’t updated since 2014.

Eighth is Fated Bonds by sakurademonalchemist. This another Naruto and Fate/Stay Night crossover, but the other direction. I’ve mentioned this one before as well, here. Archer ends up in Konoha and training Naruto and Sasuke. It has 9 chapters and was last updated in 2017.

Ninth and last is Fiery Rebirth by sakurademonalchemist. This one is a Harry Potter and KHR crossover that I’ve mentioned before here. Mukuro has a secret that he reveals when he’s possessed in the Esterneo arc. He can burn like a phoenix and then grow up. However, this reveals he’s not who he thought he was and must go to a certain magic school to get his inheritance (with everyone). It has 10 chapters and hasn’t been updated since 2018.

That’s all for this week and I hope to be on time next week and be able to tell you that I’ve got my text to speech up again. I hope things are great for you and as always – May Your Heart Be Your Guiding Key!

After the Quest and a Change in the Posting Schedule

Hi everyone! Sorry I didn’t post on Friday, I actually forgot and didn’t really remember until Sunday (or maybe Saturday, but not until late). Thinking about it, I’ve decided that I’ll just post on Fridays, because then I won’t have to worry about staying up late to post (I have very early mornings, not that it matters this week cause I don’t have work for the rest of it cause there’s not currently much work.) Anyway, I’ve been rereading a few of sakurademonalchemist stories (mostly listening to them), but I’ve also been rereading Ichigo Awakens, Prime Directive: Hero, Gamer of the Sword and finished rereading the Pick Up the Pieces series – Rebuild. The new chapters this past week were: Devil Ninja, Zero no Tsukaima: Saito the Onmyoji, Viridescent, Heroes Assemble!, Raptor of the 20th Ward, Titanfall, Taylor Varga (Thurs & Sun) , Unexpected Restart, An Essence of Silver and Steel, Relic of the Future, Gun Bunny, The Unseen Hunt, God Slaying Blade Works, Tsunami, Black Sky, Mauling Snarks (Omake on Wed, Normal on Fri & Mon), Another Soldier Reporting (Mon & Tues), Souls of the Heart and Service with a Smile.

Since the Quest is over, you’d think that I wouldn’t have much to talk about sakurademonalchemist for, right? Well they have another new story. Its called Hashtag Believing is Seeing. It’s a Rise of the Guardians story where Jack discovers that the Internet can allow him to interact with humans and raise the belief in himself. Thus when the Guardians pull him into their fight with Pitch, he’s not very happy. It’s fun and is two chapters now (started yesterday).

I’ve also been reading some of the compilation fics they have, so I’ll go over them. Kingdom Drabbles is a Kingdom Hearts compilation fic where stories with KH as one of the original stories that might eventually be continued are.   So far it’s has crossovers with Fate/Extra, Once Upon a Time, Harry Potter, Star Wars, Nanoha and KHR. They’re interesting, but the nine chapters only contain up to two chapters of the story.

Bleach Drabbles is much the same only for Bleach. It has crossovers for Hell Girl, Nanoha, Naruto, Harry Potter, Natsume’s Book of Friends, Supernatural, My Little Pony (though it’s not very Bleachy) and KHR. Only one of the stories in here has become a fic of its own, Reaping the Cards. It’s also the only one with three chapters.

The Twin Tides is a fic that just got an update that’s by Solvdrage. It’s a Naruto fic where Naruto has a female twin that looks out for him. It’s only three chapters now, but Solvdrage does good fics (though they usually update slowly). It’s only just on when they graduate, but it looks like it won’t be the same old teams!

sbmcneil posted a new one-shot just an hour ago called Of Splendour in the Grass. It’s a Harry Potter fic focused on Harry/Ginny during his fifth year. In it Harry and Ginny are sent on a ‘detention’ date to Hogsmeade by McGonagall. It’s a cute litte fic.

I forgot to mention it, but a little while back, they also posted another one-shot called A Godfather’s Love. It has Sirius never escaping and being killed when Voldemort invades Azkaban. Harry never knew about him until then and when he finds out it was kept from him, he finds his own help to stop Voldie. A sad fic, but not a bad one.

That’s it for the new stories, but I have a few more things to talk about. Next month the new Code Geass Movie, Code Geass: Lelouch of the Re;surrection, is going to be in theaters. It’ll be playing in select theaters on May 5, 7 & 8. The 5th will be subbed and the 7th and 8th will be dubbed. You can buy tickets on the Funimation website – https://www.funimationfilms.com/.

I’ve also been watching a YouTuber – SarahKey play through KH3.   Why because I can and it’s interesting watching someone react to everything for the first time. Here is a link to her channel – https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6TF2WuXLVgcP5TZVLuLf4A.

Thanks everyone for putting up with me. See you on Friday and May Your Heart Be Your Guiding Key!
