    Is that how it's going to be? Alright, let's fucking do this.

    If you write this, I'll update Clouds.

    Excuse me while I reach down and pick this up. Challenge accepted. I'm going to be fairly busy the next two days, but I'll try to get a chapter out by this weekend. It might be the worst attempt at fanfiction since 'My Immortal', but I'll make myself look a fool for a chance to see the next chapter of clouds.

    Now, if I can just figure out how the hell I'm going to do this then I'll be good to go. It's been about 9 years since I've wrote any sort of fiction and 5 years since my last English class. I hope you know the pain your eyes will be in after you read my first chapter.

    This thread is a great example of why DLP can never be ruined by terrible newbism, blatant gayery and general awful shit. I'm completely overwhelmed with pride (and lulz).

    Am I the only one that, when Harvest King wrote 'Challenge accepted,' heard the words in his head as said by Barney Stinson?

    This god damn thread...

    :awesome

    On Topic: If I recall correctly, Molly used a love potion on Arthur, and all of their children are quite obviously capable of understanding/feeling love. So I'm going to have to say that your hypothesis was wrong.

    Hey, let's not leave it so open there for Tehan. Last I recall, he updated Clouds with measly 1000 words. I say he has to match Harvest King word for word with his update.

    I don't think it can be called canon [unless you accept JKR's retcons in interviews etc], but I think it could be worked for a fic. It sounds like a massive angst-fest though, tbh.

    Holy shit, this thread fucking delivers. :awesome

    Harvest King, even if you fail hard, I'll still read that. Glad to see you're gonna give it a try.

    More to the point, how about next time you try to dictate what I have to do, you instead go fuck yourself with a rake.

    I sometimes wonder why the fuck I keep coming back to this site, filled as it is with assholes and retards, a perfect example of which is the OP. Then I read further in that same thread and find not only that it's been salvaged, but made into pure fucking win by ego, bravado, some dick-measuring and a bit of douchebaggery, not necessarily in that order.

    DLP, I am once again in awe of your power.

    It'd be a little bit of a cop-out if he puts out several thousand words, while you put out a few hundred. Matching word for word would be pretty fair. And I wasn't trying to dictate, just offering a suggestion. Guess it came out more assertive than I meant.

    Maybe more specific terms of the challenge should be agreed on?(See a suggestion this time).

    And is really so bad that I'm trying to get you to write more to the fic that most on this site really enjoy reading, myself included?

    Yes it is so goddamn bad because instead of just enjoying the Clouds on the horizon, you're demanding more like a petulant fucking child. Fuck your 'specific terms', fuck your 'matching word for word', fuck your 'cop-out', and fuck you. You're being a greedy little gobshite and with every single fucking word that even hints that trying to goddamn force me to write a single fucking word I don't want to is a good idea just makes not writing a goddamn thing seem like a fantastic fucking idea.

    But by all means, if you want to ruin me attempting to motivate a potential author, keep trying to wring a few measly extra words out of me. See how far it gets you.

    LOL. Tehan is a dickbag. If you don't want to write a lot, don't. No one is putting a gun to your head. We all enjoy your story, this is true, but you cussing out a fan based on his adulation of your work and earnest desire to see more of it written, is making you look like the ass in the situation.

    In my personal opinion, what he said isn't that out of line. 1000 word updates are lame as fuck. However, you should do you.

    Anyone but 7ate9 wouldn't have gotten chewed out, but since he's established himself as a weirdfux he's fair game.
