>>56984548Until I finish Black Blaze, I'm going to be posting a little less often for creative purposes. I have a lot of ideas that I want to share with you guys regarding Alex's fantasy stuff but I feel like discussing it as much as I did before just distracts me from Black Blaze. I have to say though, I am nervous about this. I'm breaking several of my own rules, most notably I'm quite radio silent on it beyond asking for some advice regarding the accuracy of casinos. The thing about surprises is that sometimes they fail. I do want to quickly address some people though.
>>56985080I'm glad that you've discovered what hyperlinks are. I suggest that during moments of boredom while writing Chapter 3 you go back and move all of the upfront images of the previous two chapters into hyperlinks.
>>56981382>>56983717I haven't forgotten about this and I'll be adjusting Agent Orange at some point before the end of the year. And yeah, I do think it's just whiplash, because obviously it's intended to be mean-spirited from Alex's perspective. But I wouldn't openly disparage someone's writing just for being different, I might give them advice to steer them in a direction that I think would be helpful but I'm quite aware that everyone has their own styles and preferences.
I only had Chapter 1 and your posts to go off of but the idea behind the dinner table scene is that it's showing how in spite of the change that did occur, I imagine that Koa and his father would always still have bits of their relationship shown in chapter 1. Koa's father is depicted as quite stern, but it's still out of genuine paternal concern, and I tried to show him being a bit more restrained than in Chapter 1. Everyone's a bit tired due to how late it is, which contributes to the stress. I don't really take anything to heart except for outright insults like
>>56973894 and even then that's less from the insult itself and more just the inability to know whether it's coming from a troll or a secret hater
