Quote:If that's the one where he comes to a world with only Sailor V because Usagi's birth was delayed by a few years, I think that might have been the one he wrote first, but it's not the first "chronologically" within the series.
I've read some of Jared Ornstead's work and liked it, but the only thing I've been able to find except in fragmentary form is - I forget what it's called; the Sailor Moon one (at least I *think* it's the only one), looks from internal context like the first but I think it's numbered otherwise.
Quote:Google turns up two locations, one of which I already knew about: First, Studio Asynjor I believe is supposed to have the entire contents of the late, lamented Studio Aesir mirrored. I know for a fact that it has Otaku Reflected 3 -- you can reach the chapter I quoted above directly at http://www.asynjor.com/fanfic/ornstead/s0307_otaku.txt
Where might I find "Eva Revolution", and possibly other Skysaber fics?
Drakensis the Red also appears to have an archive of Studio Aesir. The link to the same chapter is http://www.megspace.com/entertainment/d ... ku3-09.txt and you can probably work out the rest yourself.
And remember what I said. Jaren can be incredibly entertaining, but he's also very uneven. You'll find annoying dross scattered among the gold. In his later writings he has taken to embedding crypto-libertarian/conservative/??? political screeds into his stories by placing them in the mouths of his characters, often with little regard to what's going on in the story around them. Sometimes, oddly enough, they work (a Talmudic argument, of all things, late in Otaku 3 is actually one of my lesser favorite moments in the story), but sometimes they're both badly-done and infuriating at the same time.
You Have Been Warned.
Oh, and in case I haven't said it before, Otaku 3 is incomplete. It's what he was writing most recently before vanishing from the net for a while. As it is, most archives (including mine) lack the most recent chapter, but to tell the truth, it's not a huge loss in my opinion.
Quote:I'm not sure, but it might be because you're unregistered. With all the recent changes to the board software, I've lost track of what's allowed at what level.
(And while we're at it, is there any particular reason why I'm not seeing on the "add reply page" the buttons identified on the "Using ezPost" page? The only reason I care is, as things stand I can't quote properly.)
But you don't need the buttons to quote properly -- I never use them. I just enclose the quoted material in between a "quote" and a "/quote" (these commands are of course inside square brackets themselves).
Hope this helps.
