It’s on the list!
... the list of things that I have to do but never get accomplished because I haven’t charged the damn laptop...
And now because Suddnely Job, said charging will be done tomorrow. You all have permission to slap me if it isn’t. Well as long as I have permission! 😝

We will gently slap.

Ok, the virtual slapping was much appreciated.
I’ve just plugged in the laptop for charging!

The Chapter is nearly done! Just one more reunion to go - but it has to be good, it’s an important one!
Part of me wants to shadow the Corvidae scene in which this meeting takes place, but I think it might work better if it stands on its own...

Ooooo! Is it a happy reunion. That's all I want to know.

There are a total of four reunions this chapter - two happy, one overwhelming and one angry/sad/shocking. I’ll let you guess which one I’m writing

So one of my all time favourite authors got a sword today - not a real once, but a very convincing replica carved from wood - and now I want one.
I could get it custom made, to match a sword from the book. Rook gets a sword - because apparently that’s a suitable courting gift in Brennan’s eyes - and I am exactly the kind of nerd who would pay money for a (convincing) wooden replica of her own fictional character’s sword.
If only I had a spare $300 to throw at such a thing.
Maybe one day.

Get a sword, get a sword, get a sword!
Wouldn't we all like $300 dollars to get a fake sword?

I would love to get a sword - even a realistic looking fake one (because then you can take them to conventions and such)
But alas, this years budged doesn’t allow me to get a sword. I have more important things to do - like travel from New Orleans to LA

Hmmm... no thoughts on chapter 7 yet? Did I break my fan base?
I’m really sorry if I did :/

I’m really sorry if I did :/ No you haven't, I'm still a fan. Just haven't gotten around to replying. Was sick on Sunday and busy yesterday and today.

Sorry to hear you’ve been unwell, Whale!
And yeah, don’t worry about all that. The forum was super quiet for a couple of days and by accursed anxiety said ‘that’s it, Dingo, everybody hates that chapter. You killed it’. It’s just my brief and inteuding crushing self doubt *nervous laughter*

Fan base reporting to say they are not broken. I had to finish a paper though, so now that is down I am freeeeeee to go read!

Finished! Lovely new chapter! I noticed you said 'god' instead of 'got' once and 'whisper' instead of 'whisker' and if it wasn't so late I've fined the exact places.
I need more already. X'D I need more of our medicine cats, because I love them both. And I need more of Pikefang, because I need to see where his reaction to Storm is going to go. I just need a lot of things.

Oh dear, haha I’ll fix that tomorrow! Thanks for pointing it out!
Aw yeah. The Medicine Cat duo is the greatest. Raintail is more or less everybody’s cool aunt. She’s sweet, motherly and not to be messed with. She more or less became Ravenheart’s parent.
And Pikefang is awesome. He’s overexcited and maybe a little bit overtired, but I love him so much. He’s a good friend. And a better boyfriend. His reaction to Storm will be explored in the next chapter!

Raintail is my cool aunt. I really like her. I like Snakeeyes more though. o3o
Yay! I need to see him with Storm more. I must see reactions!

Rainfall is definitely the type of person who hosts block/street parties and such. I'm glad you like her! I'm glad you like Snakeeyes, too! He's a difficult character to write, admittedly, considering he has exactly two emotions - 'whatever' and 'so concerned that I'm beyond angry' - but he's a good guy. Just trying to make do with what he has. Which, admittedly, isn't all that much :/
You'll be pleased to know then that there is at least 30% more Snakeeyes in the humanised novel.
I'm determined to get one more chapter up this year, before I take a hiatus, so you shall have your interactions and reactions! There will be sibling bonding and some dudes hanging out and definitely not falling for each other.

Woooh! More Snakeeyes! I am very pleased! This is how it should be. Definitely not. Can't have Mint and other readers shipping them or anything like that. Can't hear a lot of 'nice', 'aw', and 'yeess'. That just gets old. Nope. Definitely not. If you leave them on a cliff hanger I shall be annoyed. I'll understand, but I'll still be annoyed.

In the mood for super quick sketches and character design, so I thought in the future I’ll play a little game with you guys. You give me a ship (something you genuinely ship or something totally nonsensical) and is draw what their hypothetical kits would look like.
It would be something I’d do on my next day off - and yes, all pairings would be allowed, so you could send me your gay/lesbian ships!!

Snakeeyes gets several POV chapters! And he features pretty heavily in the middle/later chapters, so there shall be much, much Snakeeyes. By the way - he’s technically a pirate and owns three seperate swords, two of which are the designated ‘pirate’ swords of this universe. Pirates have a very distinctive and very show-offy fighting style.
Oh no. That can’t happen. That would be far, far too expected. Far too happy for this type of story. Or maybe that’s exactly why there should be some quality time for some good boyfriends to develop their relationship...

Hmmmmm..... no. I don’t think so *suggestive eyebrow wiggle*
I’m keen to begin working on Book 2 - “A Tiding of Magpies” - so I can shove Rook and Brennan together for maximum awkward flirting. Made even more awkward because Snakeeyes will awkwardly chaperoning at least one such interaction. How many times can I say awkward in one sentence?

Latest Corvidae development: My dumb ass has decided that both Slate and the Ghost have native languages that are not whatever the world's equivalent of English is, so I guess I'm creating two fantasy languages, because damn it I want them to talk in their native tongues.

Could've sworn I already posted here, sorry!
I love the new chapter! Seeing everyone's reactions to Storm's return was so poignant - you create such a good atmosphere of "the same but not the same". As for Redstar, I'm so angry with him right now, you would not believe.
