Friendly Reminder: We're in the Future


Ooops.
Well, I certaintly didn't intend to go into the comment section and encite mass excitement. I think I've talked about this before, but I do have UL ideas.I'm telling myself I won't write anything until HMLIS is done, I want to give this idea lots of time to sort of swim in my head. Right now I'm sort of juggling with writting a series of collected vignettes that will have a new plotline as well as retcon some of OHG. Not all of OHG, but some of it. If anything related to it comes up, I'm happy to talk about it, but don't expect anything until around April/May/June/July-ish.

CPShawna
It wasn't until after this did I realize CP Shawna could also stand for Cyberpunk Shawna ! This is especially funny to me because the file I keep all the Vice/Veritas stuff in is still call CP from when I didn't have a name for any of this. I have to say in this today's TDOSH, me and CPShawna get a little meta.

Rule of Cool
So, I had a lot of fun with this TDOSH and I may, may, MAY do one for Blessed Hearts. Only, I'd be making more fun of my consistent use of Rule of Cool. I also still have both verisons of the story up, so it would also be fun to see what changes I did make (because I surely don't remember)

It Gets Worse
So, chapter 1 is pretty tame in both content and commentary compared to what we have coming up. I hope you're ready, it only gets worse.

A TDOSH with three Shawnas, a needlessly complicated punchline and we talk about privates (Get your mind out of the gutter (and then put it back in))....TDOSH Sundays 2

  1. So SH and CPS one thing I can relate to is trying NOT edit when doing TDOLL. I moved everything to a word doc and edited it there THEN plugged it back in. (Which is why the font is SO much bigger
    it was so tiny before). It's hard not to make changes.

    1. I did the Word thing to. Now that I see some promise in the story, I was tempted to just re-edit the story.

      But also, my fonts are off a little too. I think this was originally double spaced or something and I took that off. I did somethign weird to part three and all the words look so close together when I plugged it back in. I'm currently troubleshooting that.

  3. I didn't find the endings to be awkward . . . they just seem ominous

    1. I guess less awkward and more random. As I said, this story was just one long document with no breaks.

    1. Aww, thank you ! Erik is always the funny one usually, so I was a bit out of my comfort zone, but I'm glad I wasn't as bad as I thought I was.

    2. Lol, thanks ! And Shawna is being modest, she make me laugh everyday.

  5. Any hints as to which parts of OHG will be retconned, also can Cortland and Rhett get into a fight at some point ?

    1. Speaking of which does CPShawna have any thoughts on UL or Veritas ?

      Delete
    2. Um, as of right now I want to change some names of like towns and things. Maybe a few plot points.

      I'd love to have a Cortland and Rhett fight, but I'm not sure how or why it would happen. I'll keep this as food for thought though. I mean, they did go to college in the same state, so there is a chance they could have met up.

    3. I had to keep writing UL for more swoons !

      As for Veritas, well, world building is hard you guys !

  6. Wait they are sharing a bed ? I didn't catch that the first time.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Yeah, they've been sharing a bed, so Alex doesn't have to sleep in the prisoner barracks. Because of reasons.

      Delete
    2. It's because Alex's friends are probably going to be jerks to Alex. That's why he doesn't want to go back there. Duh.

    1. Somehow I see this becoming an injoke alternative to "down low"

      Delete
    2. I know, I have no idea why this wasn't explored more. But, he probably learned before the war or something.

      Delete
  8. I need to write some characters giving a lesson number 50.

  9. Oh, no SH.. . you did not use Face as an insult.

  13. Was there a lot of rule of cool in BH ? I just thought it had a lot of awesome music.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Also all of SH's Greek Myth-spiration !

      Delete
    2. I mean a lot of the fashion choices, ideas about wings and things was because I thought it sounded cool. I think a TDOSH of BH would be less funny and more overly informative. We'll see.

  14. I love how holographic = future. I mean don't we kind of have those now ? *eyes CNN*

    1. Well, these work better and the person with the hologram can see the hologram too.

  15. I feel lame, what joke did I miss ?

    Replies
    1. Okay, there was a complicated joke where when CPShawna asks me a continuity high five it's continuity from the high five I gave her at the beginning of the chapter.

      SO, the high five is continuity from something that happened earlier. It seemed funny at the time.

  17. So is Alex still genetically female ? Or has that changed ? Am I getting to ahead . . .

    1. I think I toyed with this, but I think it's safe to say he's just really androgynous. Which honestly doesn't matter in Sundays, since it's never mentioned that he has femenine characteristics. It's not even mentioned he has long hair.

      Delete
  18. OMG, loving all the continuity nods CPS. We need to see more of CPS.
