    "A Song of Ice and Fire" stories

    I was under the impression that thread was for reviews only, and other discussion should either be here, or in a WbA thread (which I have deliberately not made). My mistake. I'm not familiar with the rules of DLP outside of this small section; I won't do any more meme-y update posts if it's against the rules.

    Speaking of Halt, where's the next chapter of The King Is Dead? I thought he had all of the story pre-written.

    I think so too. But I also think he'd be an absolute pain to write from the POV of. So we revoke his POV privileges and leave his mind a mystery, and then just watch him chew the scenery from someone else's perspective.

    You and I are sympatico on this. Part of how I'm handling this strange situation with Jon is by taking the POV away from his eyes, and having the story follow Asha instead. Sort of a 'call me Ishmael' situation. We'll see from her perspective, as the heir apparent to the Iron Islands, how this guy who for all intents and purposes appears to be the third coming of a previously-debunked messianic figure completely upends their futures in the coming civil war. Jon as we know and enjoy him...

    No, but you can certainly make an educated guess. I laid out all the clues to piece it together... (Vigilance. Ned found Vigilance and gave it to Bobby B as an apology for refusing to go south, and then Bobby B traded it to Leyton Hightower in exchange for being the Hand.)

    Blegh. At least make him work for it, instead of having an off-screen glow-up. It's like trying to ride my dick without any warning - nah, bitch, I'm still flaccid, you gotta at least show me a titty. Bare minimum effort.

    Maybe I've just grown accustomed to seeing fics with chapters in the 1-3k word range - it's easy to chew through a dozen chapters of that stuff before deciding to drop it.

    Wow, you're picky with what fics you read, only giving a story 10 chapters to impress y- *Wordcount is 275k over 28 chapters* ... yeah, okay, 100k is a more-than-generous point to decide whether you like something or not. Glad you like my work then, Halt. I'll try not to disappoint.

    Ground control to Major Jon, your circuit's dead, there's something wrong. Can you hear me, Major Jon? Can you hear me, Major Jon? Can you hear me... (SOON.) Man, I hate this automerge thing, it ruins the aesthetics of my shitposting. Ground control to Major Jon, Ground Control to Major Jon, take your protein pills and put your helmet on. Ground Control to Major Jon, commencing countdown, engines on. Check ignition, and may the Drowned God's love be with you... (New chapter posted.)

    I thought Martin had a filing cabinet of his own lore, not that he had to call other people. I did know he refuses to modernize his writing tech, though, which is completely bonkers.

    I wouldn't complain about that at all, really - Barristan being killed was one of the first pants-on-head retarded divergences from the book, and Dumb & Dumber admitted that they did it expressly because they didn't like the actor and wanted to get rid of him. We're going to be in an absolute state for a while, until George finishes WoW in 2020 like he promised. Then the bad taste will be washed out of everybody's mouths and we can all get on with our lives.

    Those are generally the lines to look out for to know if an author has ANY insight at all into men interacting with each other - if you see that, the answer is a resounding 'no' and you need to run and never look back.

    Cool. Because as I recall, Summer Crowns came out of AH, and I fucking loved that story. I'm probably gonna steal some of the ideas that story came up with and use them for my own nefarious purposes, so I was more than a little curious if that was somehow a one-off or not.

    You can blame Dumb and Dumber for that interpretation - the people who read the books know she's much more of an allegory for civilians who are caught up in brutal wars instead of a badass. The Faceless Men are explicitly a metaphor for psychological disassociation in relation to murder.

    Oh yes, Jon is a hot mess right now. He's gonna need some serious help getting his head on straight, and then re-contextualizing himself. That's, uh... Gonna be really fun for me. legitimately. I'm very excited to get to the climax of Life Six. It's going to morph the War of Five Kings in a way that I don't think I've ever seen before. And then the spiral downwards to form the basis of Life Seven... ooooh. It's going to hurt in a delicious way. I'm very excited to get to work.

    So if I want to use the WbA threads, do I have to repost the entirety of my stories there in order to not run afoul of the rules? Or can I just post a link to what's already been posted elsewhere and then get feedback on my current chapter?

    oh my god I am so fucking offended at this I just can't even. I'm gonna show up at your house and blast Soulja Boy through a huge 80's boombox to have my revenge. Nah, I'm not necessarily worried about structural issues. I'm well aware that I post the thing unbeta'd and have a few things to work out on that front. I was just curious about if you had any things to say about what you think was going right or wrong in a narrative sense, what's good and bad about the story. I have a fairly...

    Glad you all like my work. Shoutout to the dude who let me know you'd posted links over here - you're the first outside repository/community to send people my way. Anything you want to say to my face? Ideas? Critiques? wild spitballing of plot guesses? I think I've done a good job of keeping the plot a little under wraps for the first arc, but there are still pointers towards the overarching story if you squint.
