Announcement III

Okay, dear readers.

First, a big thanks for all the messages of support I received in the last 24 hours. They were really appreciated and confirmed in my heart that the decision to make sure this story continues against the tempests and cataclysms of the Othersea no matter what was the right one.

I am trying to find solutions for the recent problem which has suddenly touched certain stories, I hinted at much to several people who sent me messages.

The problem is also that I ...

Announcement Mark II

I had not thought much about it before one faithful reader remarked upon it, but the same problem which forced me to withdraw the content of the Weaver Option also applies to the End of Times. While I know it was less popular than Taylor’s adventures here and it is not playing in any warhammer universe, I use very much the names of the Chaos Gods and numerous points of warhammer fantasy lore.

The other stories should be fine, I think. I wanted Let the Galaxy Burn to be more an ASOIAF/...

Announcement - Bad News/Good News

Dear Readers,

If you see the contents of my patreon page this morning, you will notice there is no content including the Weaver Option anymore. This is a deliberate policy on my part. While I was at first believing the new policies of Games Workshop didn’t concern my work, recent conversations on several boards have made me believe otherwise.

Yes, the Weaver Option is a crossover and about Taylor and her merry (or not so merry in case of Leet) band of parahumans, but no one but ...

Weaver Option Update 21 July 2021

Here is an update (and not a teaser) for what is to become the long chapter of 10-3 (since I am already at 12000 words, this ins't exactly a hard prediction to make).

The odds 85 unbetaed

And here is chapter 85 of The odds were never in my favour, which will be updated in August.

That means the very spectacular chapter 76 will be for September, of course (evil grin).

Enjoy!

Madness and Violence (Impractical Guide to Godhood ch5)

This is chapter 5 of An Impractical Guide to Goodhood, the chapter explaining (in part) the second part of the shenanigans of the Suicide Squad in the Labyrinth, where as usual, Jackson goes beyond his duties and the rules the Olympians impose to their children.

If you think the Quests have to be rational affairs where the Heroes have to prove their undying loyalty...do not read this chapter.

Otherwise, enter the madness...if you dare.

Note: this will be the last chapter of ...

Cadia Stands

Mightiest Councilor!

It is I, Brimquol, your favourite servant, yes-yes! While I know-know your wrath was justified for the miserable failure of Xirit to assassinate the Vile One, I have been able to grab-steal a priceless manuscript from the man-things to win back our kill-team's food stores, yes-yes!

We were forced to rewrite a few hundred pages, for the vision of the man-things was insufficiently watching the courageous and mighty Skaven race, but I think you will be very satis...

The Labyrinth Invasion (an Impractical Guide to Godhood ch4)

As always, fair warning.

If you think you want a story where the heroes are paragons of virtue, where good will always return after a brief period of villainy, where unity and friendship are the greatest assets of humanity against the rising darkness...

Well, this chapter isn't for you, since it includes betrayal, attempted assassinations, dark and disturbing rituals, and the heroes are villains, unless it's the reverse.

You haven't been discouraged?

Then let the madne...

The Suicide Squad (An Impractical Guide to Godhood ch3)

The madness must continue, my dear readers. I will post soon chapter 2 on all websites, which means chapter 3 is ready for inspection.

Note that this chapter figures a lot of madness, and as such this author declines all responsibility for hysterical crisis of laughter, mad giggles, and admissions into an asylum.

You have been warned.

Irritant's Law (An Impractical Guide to Godhood Ch2)

Here is the second chapter of the glorious, most glorious insanity of An Impractical Guide to Godhood. I have decided there will be a third chapter (a pattern of three being a classic, after all) and after I will shift to something else.

As explained in the author's note, I will post chapter 1 shortly on the other websites. I will keep one chapter in reserve here to reward the faithful readers compared to the sum of the other creations posted on alternate history, fanfiction.net, and ot...

An Impractical Guide to Godhood (Percy Jackson x Practical Guide Crossover)

Due to the warm weather, the consequences of being vaccinated and plenty of other factors, I didn't really feel about continuing another story this week. Instead, I wanted to try something...new. New and fun.

To be honest, while a chapter 2 is in the works and I have a basic plan to make one Arc of it, I don't know if I will make it a regular story or even a regular timeline...it's just to have fun.

Now that it is said, here we go again...

The odds 84 unbeta-ed

As I've finished writing most of ch86 (which has a good chance to be the biggest chapter ever written for this timeline) here is chapter 84, Goodbye Hogwarts, which sees the heroes (unless it is the villains?) leave Scotland for Venice and the oncoming European Magical Tournament.

The Champions are summoned, and this is definitely the calm before the storm...

Art of Negotiations

Here is the chapter 83 of The odds were never in my favour, properly beta-ed this time. It will be posted soon on ff.net (meaning before the end of the week) and on patreon I will update the chapter 84, since I'm busy writing one more chapter in this story (specifically a certain chapter 86 named 'First Trial'...am I evil to tell you that?).

Weaver Option unbetaed chapter Black Crusade 10-2

Well, it seems I was too pessimistic on the length of this chapter written on June 2021, for I have barely managed a meagre 49 460 words. I know, what a shame, I promise to summon the Penitent Sisters at once after this paragraphs are written.

More seriously (or less, it's all a question of perspective I suppose) the chapter Black Crusade 10-2 Cadia Stands was sent on schedule to the betas, so it can be posted here. Make a prayer or two for the courageous thoughts beta-ing the work abov...

Weaver Option Update 05 June 2021

The promise was made, the update is here.

Here are the first 15000 words of Black Crusade 10-2, as the battle for Cadia and the Monolith ramps up tens of thousands of light-years apart.

By my estimate, I've reached more than 33% of the planned work now (which is at slightly less than 20000 words total). I should definitely have the full chapter by mid-June, which is a good thing as the warm temperatures are coming, and it's not conductive for the poor Abominable Intelli-...forget ...

Weaver Option Teaser 01 June 2021

Okay here is the (by my standards) very small teaser of Black Crusade 10-2. Work just began yesterday, so I didn't have to write much more.

Writing will go ahead for the next two weeks.

Black Crusade 10-1 The Last Dawn

Here is the beta-ed version of chapter 48, The Weaver Option. I'm going to give it a last correction phase to see if I haven't missed anything, but it should be the very final thing.

Chapter 8 of the An Impractical Guide to the Force series.

Unlike the others, this chapter isn't based on the movies, since it is an AU galaxy, and no Dread Emperor/Dread Empress is present...though that doesn't mean a certain bad guy isn't.

War of Lions after chapter 40

Here is the map for chapter 40 of The Dance is not Over, since I am going to post the whole chapter on different chapters today.

For this week, I have decided to write on The odds were never in my favour again. I have some inspiration for the beginning of the European Magical Tournament, and let's leave it at that.

I have also prepared the structure of Black Crusade 10-2, so when the betas send back their work, the chapter will be ready to be written.

Right, this is the chapter 82 of The odds were never in my favour, titled Light of Fourth Year. It will be published later this month (once properly betaed) once all websites. It is the first out of two of the chapters which will focus mostly on Hogwarts for fourth year. As one might imagine, Alexandra's not going to spend a lot of time there for several months.

As far as current writing goes, my focus for this week is on a new chapter on the Dance is not Over, that you should see befor...

Weaver Option 10-1 unbetaed

Here is the complete chapter of Black Crusade 10-1 The Last Dawn (unbetaed of course). Chapter was sent to the betas a few days ago, normally it should be back for final corrections before the end of May...or so I hope.

I pulled less war and carnage in this chapter than I planned for a few weeks ago, but I think it is all for the better now. After all, escalation must be given time to grow...

But this is it. The galactic war has begun, and it's going to be epic.

Weaver Option Update 23 April 2021

Okay, I've reached 35 000 words yesterday, so you get to see the first (unebta-ed of course) 25 000 words of Black Crusade 10-1.

I hope to have finished the chapter for last week and the beginning of next month (which would give the poor betas a month to work upon it, an update time being for the end of May). Still, there's still a lot of work ahead.

In this update, you will find the events having occured in the Arena of Blades, among other scenes.
