Whatcha Reading? - Five should be enough by Arcainum -

Hello, thar. Meinos Kaen here!

What do I bring to the table today for you to inspect? Well, another one-shot of Fanfiction reviewed for your pleasure. Seems to be almost all I'm reading, lately. The rest? Well, On the Warrior's Path by Daniele Bolelli, a nice book about martial arts and the relationship with your body. One of the best reads I've ever had. Returning to fanfiction, though, what I bring you here is pure talent and originality, titled Five should be enough by author Arcainum. This story spurs fresh air on one of the most overused plot devices ever, since Bill Murray brought it to stardom via Groundhog Day. That should be everything you need to understand that I'm talking about time loops. You know the deal: a day will keep on repeating itself forever unless the only person aware of it manages to solve a particular conundrum.

We've seen them used in everything, from books to Xena to Supernatural to fan-fiction. But it's rare nowadays to have a time-loop end up as original or, hell, even entertaining, since it means thay each new day you have to do something different. Sheningans concerning the shell-shock to someone suddenly finding himself in such a situation have grown old. FSBE take the time loop and manages to give it a new coat of paint. How?

When childhood makes a comeback

Hello, thar. Meinos Kaen here!

Today, I make a decision. To be honest, completely honest, with you, my followers and fans. Because, you must know, I kept secrets from you. More importantly, I kept fanfiction from you. Why? Because I wasn't exactly sure how you'd take it. For the same reason a brony takes time to declare himself so. But now, I decided: no more secrets, especially since I preach the importance of keeping in contact with your inner child. So, exactly what are these horrible secret fanfiction I've been writing? Well, nothing that scathing. It's just...

Well, let's start with the one that is a collaborative effort. How many of you watched Scooby-Doo? *stares at raised hands* Good, good. Now, how many of you have tried to give some kind of chronology to the whole things or explanations as to how Shaggy and Scooby are the only characters who never seem to age? *stares* Okay. Now, how many of you wrote something about it? I did. Me and my other colleagues from The Fanfiction Forums, did, branching out from a great little piece of my childhood that was Scooby-Doo and the Ghoul School.

S-ClaSS Chapter 4 (1/X)


Hello, thar. Meinos Kaen here!

Damn, been ages since I posted on a Monday! Well, let's not dillidaddle (did I spell that right?) First thing, let me thank Fiona Gregory, one of the editors from Web Fiction Guide for her kind review of my story. Thanks, Fiona, and I will try not to keep my blurbs plotless from now on!

That said, I also have an announcement to make. One that I can emphasize with this little snippet...
Tengo una teoría. Un ser humano normal tiene una cantidad de groserías. Saben, un número fijo de veces que él puede chingar en una semana. ¿Él tienta chingar más que esto?” Jason irguió su mano izquierda, indicando su témpera con su dedo indicador imitando una pistuela. “Hay una barrera. Un límite. Su cerebro detenle y trae la conversa a un nivel normal. ¿Ussed?” Él tocó su témpera con la punta de sus dedos dos veces. “Ussed no tienes esa barrera. Su cerebro no impiértase si ussed harcerse de tonta o si su ya precaria situación social fijar peor. Él es un cómplice en todo esto, pero ussed es la gran maestra. Ussed superó su cerebro.”
The bi-linguists among ya'all may have noticed that you have already read this piece. It's from the first chapter, only, in spanish. Yes, my friends. S-ClaSS is going to be translated in Spanish and Portuguese! I can't wait myself to see how it comes out...

That out of the way, please go ahead and read the first snippet of the fourth chapter of S-ClaSS! Enjoy!
