Photoblogging
So, I don't have a lot of inspiration pictures. I have been using We Heart It to put some together. We kind of have a love/hate relationship. The search function works really well, but it has duplicates of multiple pictures. I may switch to Tumblr. . . .
Also my account is private, so you probably can't see it.
The Unnamed Reboots
It's funny, Veritas is still in a folder labeled SP (special project) in my desktop. I didn't have a name for it at the time and now it is becoming another SP. I'm really enjoying this reboot. The story is . . . different. With that in mind I have decided that since Lile's was so fun I want to do character interviews for the reboot. If you have any questions about their "new" adventure submit them if you'd like.
Repost Party
I realized I put the wrong playlist up last time. For some reason, I originally labeled the chapters wrong. So, the playlist from last time is the playlist for this time.
This is the last repost for me ! I did lie a little. One chapter of BH is 5,900 words (although . . .) but another one is only 2500 so it evens out.
I have 7 chapters written, so I am going to take my time posting these and not try to rush. I want to have a significant amount of work done on Veritas before I post it. My problem is I get excited and want to post something the minute I write !
Chapter 3
-1- May Angels Lead You In by Jimmey Eat World
-2-All Myself To You by Yiruma
-3-Take My Breath Away by Jessica Simpson
Chapter 4
-1- The Meadow
-2-Stars by The XX
Gah ! I hate it when little things get past you. Are you going to post the original music choices ? That hot chocolate looks so good.
ReplyDeleteWill the reboot feature the same storyline ? Because my question is (for the purposes of my little challenge.)
Just before Alan decides to become a black market "doctor" had he thought of doing anything else ?
To answer your second question :
DeleteAlan had been wanted to go into art and marketing before he was kidnapped. But only because he wanted to make money and be successful not because he liked it.
However after Minnie got hurt--no, he never thought of becoming anything else. He wants to do whatever it takes to save her and be with her.
Chapter 3 seemed to flow better than the original, where there any major changes made to it or was it just the music ?
ReplyDeleteNo, there were no major changes. Just little sentences her and there that aren't worth pointing out.
DeleteWhen I saw Finale I thought you were going to post the entire Novella. I really did ! These chappies weren't to short.
ReplyDeleteThe word Chappies made me smile !
DeleteI though Seraphim's chapter was lovely. Will she get more of her own solo chapters.
ReplyDeleteRin got really badass in this chapter. You can really see the contrast between her and Soul. Bit of a gender flip ?
ReplyDeleteI guess it was one, but it was unintentional. I tend not to worry about whether a characters is too feminine or too masculine in their actions and just let them do what they have to do to move the story along.
DeleteSo this isn't much of a question but I couldn't remember. Who was Twyla's father again ?
ReplyDeleteI don't know. If I ever said it I forgot. I don't think I ever knew.
DeleteSo if the Angels & Demons can bleed I wonder if that is how they die.
ReplyDeleteYes, they can die by severly bleeding out or any irreversable damage to their bodies. I guess the best way to put it is their hearts will never give out . . .
DeleteWhy do you torture us with cake pictures ? So good !
ReplyDeleteI know ! *eyes wedding cake in the freezer*
DeleteWhy do you torture us with cake pictures ? So good !
ReplyDeleteI feel terrible but Rin's wings made me think of this trope
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of this trope, but I guess I am semi-guilty of using it.
DeleteI actually went back and re-read the original because I was so hooked and I am more keen to this version. It's more simple.
ReplyDeleteThank you !
DeleteAre Minnie and Alan still going to be together in the reboot ? Or will the ending be different.
ReplyDeleteIDK
DeleteI wonder if there is a demon equivolent to the Soter river and there are like human-demons ? (they are probably all CEOs and politicians but still
ReplyDeleteThere is . . .
DeleteI really want to know how Soul's mom was able to get to the human world. Maybe the Demons know more than the Angels
ReplyDeleteMe too !
DeleteSeraphim story was so sad ): but when I remember that she is a lot younger than Gabriel I think it was probably for the best.
ReplyDeleteI mean she has an innocent crush on him. It's nothing inappropriate
DeleteGet excited ! You can post ASAP as far as I'm concerned.
ReplyDeleteWill anyone be missing from the new Veritas ?
IDK
DeleteI'm a little squicked out by Rin and Seraphim's relationship, it seems like she is hiding something from her and treats her like a child.
ReplyDeleteWell, if it squicks you out I can't unsquick you. I can just say that Rin is like an older sister/mother figure to Rin.
DeleteShe treats her like a child because Seraphim has only been in Eden 1 Year and Seraphim has been there for a lot longer than that.
I just noticed the chapter titles. They sound like titles of books. Srsly what happened to Gabriel ?
ReplyDeleteI know right ?
DeleteI think I asked this last time, but do Gabriel and Rin have differnt Moms ? Since the dad has been remarried ?
ReplyDeleteThey are the youngest 2 and have the same mom--their Dad's current wife.
DeleteThe music is so soft and peaceful ! I missed the photos in chapter 4
ReplyDeleteI had a hard time finding appropriate ones. I will make the next chapters pictureful.
DeleteWow, it seems like everyone wants Rin. I mean between Soul and Dark anyway.
ReplyDeleteIt sure does. . .
DeleteRandom thought : having wings seems really awesome. I guess you have to treat them like b00bs, keeping them under wraps and all . . . I'm sorry I had to say it.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Erik has left crasser comments. (:
DeleteI think this is totally a PG14 comment section if not rated R at times (;.
DeleteI'd say that's a fair assumption.
So, can we classify this as a type of high fantasy ? or more of an AU ?
ReplyDeleteI'd say mid-fantasy.I didn't make ANY of this up, it's drawn from resources so I can't exactly take credit for the world.
DeleteWhy do some of the cult members still have thier wings if they get them pulled off (ouch) for defecting.
ReplyDeleteNone of them have wings. They had them sheared off with a razor so, she can still see some of what was left of the wings.
DeleteIs Pius a person or like a type of swear ? I couldn't tell.
ReplyDeletePius is a person . . .
Delete'May Angels Lead You In' flowed nicely when Seraphim meets Gabriel, it fit perfectly.
ReplyDeleteYay !
DeleteIs Sia by chance based on the singer Sia. I think she is on the Twilight CD.
ReplyDeleteNo, it's actually a name from a TV show. I just really like the name. It was the original name for Rin ...
DeleteThis might have been what Seraphim was thinking.
ReplyDeleteBut is Gabriel THE Gabriel ?
She was thinking that.
DeleteIf the characters of Veritas could pick a new title, what would they choose ?
ReplyDeleteGood question !
DeleteWhy do I think Soul and Gabriel's disagreement had to do with Rin. . .
ReplyDeleteIt didn't. They disagreed over whether or not Soul is an abomination. You know, the usual . . .
DeleteYou know. . . these repost don't technically count as chapter. I'm just sayin' ! !
ReplyDeleteIs there anyone from Alan's previous life (other than his parents) who he would take with him when he left ?
I mean after he decided he wasn't going home with his Dad.
DeleteWhat does it mean when Rin describes the Demon's as having opaque eyes ? Do they not have the white part ?
ReplyDeleteShe means their eyes look like colored pearls. They do have a white part. I should have said opaque irises. They don't have a black part.
DeleteNote to self: Learn the parts of the eye.
How old is Sia ? Does she have an actress inspiration.
ReplyDeleteSia is in her early 20's. She's a minor character ( I think) so, I never had an inspiration for her.
DeleteAny chance we can keep up these double post. They are just so short !
ReplyDelete*shrugs*
