Dreams of the Quill

Yup yup! Finally got done with Fuyu. As you probably know, TLS was supposed to be finished by the end of 2005. This update marks the 2/5 mark. There are three more seasons to cover.

The Last Season: 「Fuyu」 Not Alone

This section is muchly changed from the original, far more so than the previous two. For one, Akane doesn’t smooch Reo. A more significant changes, Akane doesn’t break down and “pounce” on Midori (as I so eloquently put it in previous writings.) These two changes are based on a few factors, they are:

• - The way I wrote out the original scenarios suuuuucked. With a lot of ‘u’s.
• - I wasn’t happy with the pacing.
• - Akane might have been a hospital patient, but she wasn’t a mental patient. And the changes that occur in her mental processes to lead her to act the way she did in the original writing are not sane.
• - Various inspiration has led me to the conclusion that there are much better ways to lay out a situation, and I’m trying to build up to this.

Remember, as always, that The Last Season is an experiment, much like Tundra of Heroes. Unlike Tundra of Heroes, which is a fairly typical fantasy tale, The Last Season is an experiment in something I have pretty much no hands-on experience with (and most likely relies all too heavily on anime-granted knowledge. bah.)

Oh, and I should mention this, though it’s been there for a couple days now- I got up that disclaimer I was talking about. You can find it here:

Sidenote: I’ve moved the completed Kaze Emoticon Set to Wordpress and renabled smilies.

EDIT: I shall never ever use smilies in DotQ’s news ever again. They look horrid in it due to line spacing issues.
