Starting school again in a couple weeks, so no looking forward to that, but what can you do? At least it includes a class with my favorite professor. Somehow that makes it manageable. In other news, I am somehow staying alive. Internet is crazy while on vacation, but I'm having a fair amount of fun! Ugh, I feel your pain. Why does going back in January feel so much worse than going back in September? But I'm glad you've got your favourite professor - at least there's one class you know you'll enjoy *pats* Keep staying alive! And get off the internet and have more fun I don't know. There's just something about less of the length. Yep! I also got the books for really cheap, so that's super awesome too. Indeed. XD I should be spending a fun week with a friend. But in this respect, I was talking about the internet connection was horrible.

That's probably it. Although, I think I'm going to be pretty busy this term so it might make things go faster. That is extra good! Everything I've heard about american college suggests you have to spend a lot on textbooks. See! The internet connection was helping you enjoy the time with your friend

Er. Yes. A whole lot. It is a very sad fact of school. Creative Writing course is apparently going to be my hardest class. The professor is known to be a very tough grader of the level of schooling I'm in. I have to write essays more than I have to write the actual creative stuff! @.@ The internet connection was during my visit with family. Which, yeah, I do love spending time with my family. Though this last trip was ... a bit too much for me. The bit with my friends was the week after we returned from vacation and the spotty internet. XD It was fun though! How are you?

Poor you Ouch! Creative writing sounds really fun, but I don't envy you all the essays. I suppose they could be interesting depending on what you do in them. Ah, that makes sense xD Yeah, I can get that - family can be a lot, particularly on holiday when you're spending all your time with them. I'm glad the part with your friends was fun c: I'm alright, thanks. Got really unlucky with my timetable this semester so I have early starts every day. Otoh, I have a contest with a uni band at the weekend, which is pretty exciting!

I mean, I've been writing essays long enough that formulating them is now very easy. It's the fact that all the requirements the professor gave was "how did you make this?" but I'm also aware she grades really tough and I want to give her what she wants. So I'm very nervous about how this will go. Yep! Just saw one of them again this weekend. We went traveling together a bit. I got a game. Oooooo! Good luck on the contest! Have fun! I've joined an English club!

I mean, with a question as open as that, as long as you formulate it correctly you should be able to write about pretty much anything. But I hope you do well Maybe she's less strict when she's got to know the class? I'm glad! That sounds really good. Thank youu The English club sounds fun! What's it involve?

Ehhhh. I'm not sure. I'll be hopeful though. I just hope I can survive. I am really hoping for that. First grades will be coming in next week (well, next monday) so here's hoping I find out what ground I'm standing on then. It was, it was! I had a lot of fun. Book clubs! Creative writing! A bunch of stuff. I'm super excited, honestly.

I mean, you're a pretty good (and prolific) creative writer on here. So that should help Ooh, I hope that went well! Nice! One of my friends from home managed to get a lift over to see me at uni (after we'd been talking about it for weeks x'D ) which was really good. That does sound really exciting. Like I always wanted English class to be back at school.

Bet you that's going to ping the copyright bot. @.@ *comes back after checking* It didn't? Wow. I must have really edited. That's a relief. I really don't need my professor to see that the short story started out as a fan fiction. That's so cool! I'm glad that could happen! I'm looking forward to seeing how it goes!

I am LOVING this so far!! I just finished the first arc. Can I be added as a fan? I'm going to review each 'arc' you have bc... you deserve rave reviews, that's why. >D
Now, it's been a LOOONG time since I last read a Warriors book in the main arc (I started reading the books again beginning with Dawn of the Clans) so my memory of these cats is super rusty, but because of that it's been super fun to remember them through reading this. And you're obviously a skilled writer, I'm very much enjoying your descriptions and dialogue!
Prologue - Chapter 5: I'M REALLY UPSET ABOUT LEAFPOOL??? That really came as a shock to me. I like how you've touched on different cats' reactions to hearing about her/meeting the 3, and all are really realistically handled. God, especially Squirrelflight... I loved how you wrote that scene between her and Holly. Easily my favorite part so far. Although, my favorite bit about this overall is that it feels like it has direction, and idk if the Erins have like lost their way that badly, but reading Dawn of the Clans doesn't feel like it has direction and purpose the way this does, and I'm excited to see how this story develops. And very pleased I've got plenty left to read. >D
Chapters 6 - 12: Holly's dream at the beginning of chapter seven is so hauntingly beautiful, I'm literally in love with it. WOW, so a lot happened omfg???? Absolutely LOVE how you've written Sol, and I don't remember him at all from the books, so it's safe to say you've made him far more memorable than the Erins I think. xD I have never read through a fic this quickly before, I'm enthralled. I have so many questions about everything with Sol, and wtf just happened and--basically I'm going to keep reading.
Chapters 13 - 18: ohhh my goddddd. I don't even have words. I guessed Sol's power just before it was revealed, but I'm still just fjdkslfsjdafl. I love alternate timelines plots so much. And you've made this such a fantastic ride so far. And at the end, being back in the timeline we know of? After not reading the books for years, I really have no clue what to expect mostly because I can't remember most of what happened but I am HERE FOR ALL OF THIS, I'm enjoying this way too much, and binging it all in one sitting is thrilling.
Chapters 19 - 23: so much happening here omg. I loved the chapter where Ivypaw and Holly learned at the same time what was going on about the prophecy, it was really well-written, and really cleverly done!! I'm probably going to have to re-read some of these chapters now that I know more about what's going on with this fork and the prophecy but... I love this. SO looking forward to your next update!!!!

Depending on whether you could prove you wrote the fanfictiona, that would either be very bad or pretty embarassing. Actually, did you ever read fangirl by Rainbow Rowell? Because pretty much exactly that happens.It was! And I got to see her again a few weeks ago. Went to a cat cafe which was the cutest thing ever. O.O Was it good?

So first off, absolutely you can be a fan! I've read your comment... a few times through and it's been the highlight of my day <3 IT UPSET ME TOO but seriously though I'm glad that part of the story hit the right place for you! It's been far too long since I wrote those chapters but yeah I wanted to show the range of reactions that everyone would have. Particularly Squirrelflight... poor Squirrel, she doesn't get a particularly happy time of it in this fic I'm glad you like the dream, and Sol! More memorable than canon was definitely my aim xD Ahaha yes the reveal! Reading your reaction was... exactly what I wanted when I planned the scene xP Thank you!! That chapter was something I thought a lot about so I'm glad it worked! Hopefully I can get the next chapter up soon... In the meantime thank you so much for your lovely comment! <333

But I think it worked out, heh. Though after that whole shifting around, I now have a ton of things to repost all over the place. Also some new things. I tossed some of my new poems in OTW. Not yet! I have some of Rainbow Rowell's books on my shelf though. Awwwww! I've never been to a cat cafe! I really want to! Unfortunately we were supposed to meet on the 20th but that isn't going to happen now. Sigh. My bookclub is still meeting though, so there's that! We're reading The Giver of Stars.

The cats had free reign of the cafe - there were all these walkways and cat trees they could use to get a break from the humans. And you could just wander around and play with the cats. The only bad thing was that we could only stay for an hour. Sigh. Any hope of an online meeting in the future? That's good! Do you recommend the book?

So, I finally got around to reading all of this, and it's so good. I love time travel idea and Sol's powers are very interesting. Sol's characterization and role in this are so much better than the actual series, though that goes for most of the characters. Can't wait to see what's next! Yay! Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it Sol is a very fun villain to write, and I'm definitely looking forward to writing him again... Hope you're doing well!

I have them all saved as well as where in the topics I saved them to. ^^ That is so, so cool! Noooooooooo! That's such a short time! I'm so sorry! Hopefully you'll be able to go back at some point in the near future. I went for a walk today, which was nice. Not for that, unfortunately. Hopefully in summer though! So far I would! It's really hard to get right now, though. Not only is it new, but I think they might be making it into a movie on top of that. Maybe. But either way it's hard to get.

I'm definitely going to go back there when I can cx That sounds good! How far did you get? Fingers crossed! Huh. Well, seems like it might be worth checking out when the buzz dies down a little.

Yessss! I remember that! I still have it somewhere too. Not sure whether it's on my USB or saved to the Cloud though. That was fun to do. Huuum. I want a cat. I keep going on walks and seeing cats though! So that's a nice perk! Just around the block. Or at least in the last two days. I think that day might have been the day I just picked a direction and kept walking until I hit a major street. Which was ... maybe a mile and a half? Yes indeed! I'm almost halfway through, but it has to be done by Sunday. Gonna be close!

If you can't find your copy, I can pm you mine c: It was very fun! A bit strange seeing my old writing style, though.
Same here! I've never actually had a pet, although I get to share my friend's cat when I go round to their house. That sounds really nice, have you managed to make friends with any of them yet? Sounds good! Sometimes it's just about getting out the house, isn't it?
Ooh, good luck!

We adopted one a while ago, but he disappeared. So now I hope to find another. It very much is! Thanks! I'm trying to binge over half of it in two days. That's a lot of book, heh.

Nice! How had the people in your book club managed?

Also, chapter 24 is almost done (just needs editing) so have a teaser! foxdance mintedstar/fur🦇 » ѕнαdσω ⚔️ ᴛᴜᴇsᴅᴀʏ ᴇᴍʙᴇʀ ✴ ❆αυяσяα @battlingfear prophet Mosspool Dingoleap ѕωιƒтƒαℓcση phantomstar57 ~Absol~Wolf~Scribe~ -` percy ´- .✫ 🌊 vocebulery valleylight Starchaser wildshadow2 𝓼𝔀𝓲𝓯𝓽The tunnel’s completely dark now; Holly can’t even see as far as Ivypaw in front of her. The slimy, water-smooth walls scrape against Holly’s left flank, and then her right. Some kind of mist rises off the water, thick and choking. Leafpool coughs, and the sound echoes back and forth down the tunnel, loud enough that it makes Holly stumble again.
She wonders if someone’s already tried getting to the Place of No Stars this way, in another of Sol’s forks. She wonders what happened to them.
Holly’s not sure when the walls change. One moment, cold stone presses in on each side of her, the next - it’s just as slimy, but warmer and no longer smooth. It takes her a while to figure out what the regular pattern of bumps reminds her of - the tightly woven walls of the dens in the ThunderClan. Although, the ThunderClan dens don’t have thorns left on the branches, like the huge, claw-like ones now pulling on Holly’s fur.
The water’s different, too; it’s thicker, like wading through mud. The smell of rot has congealed into something more putrid. And in front of Ivypaw, where before there was nothing but darkness, Holly now sees a faint, sickly green glow.
Ivypaw confirms Holly’s suspicion. “We’re here.”

It should be, I hope! We found a bunch of games which will work like that. Something came up which was a bit more stressful, so there are still some things up in the air, but it's getting there!
A lot of book reading. XD Go figure.
Wanna see something funny I made about my books?

Well, it is a book club xP
Yes, hit me with it!
