I gave you guys a single job and you fucked it up, two questions and one was answered, that's fifty percent that's a failing grade
For those wondering about where the rewrite is.. I need to elaborate on my second question, and ask it again.
Please read all of this before commenting.
I fully intend to continue and finish memestar ruby, so don't worry about any breaks that might happen while I'm making it. If i take a break it means that i literally NEED to take a break.
Now you might be asking yourself "didn't you take three years to finish eight chapters?" And yes, i did but i actually have a good reason for that.
Like I've said, ruby was everything i wanted out of life, she lives in a world where i am able to be happy. I was an incredibly sad person when i originally started Memestar, and that hasn't really changed, It's just that I've changed, as a person.
A lot of the things that make ruby who she is (her ideals, world view, actions, etc) are no longer part of me as a person, haven't been for awhile, and that makes it incredibly hard to write her, she's like a time capsule of the, mentally, worst years of my life, so it took me awhile to properly grasp how she would act in certain scenarios.
I've never been very open to anyone in my life (ghost being the exception, even if i never talk about sad stuff with her) and even when i wanted people to see the scars, the most I'm generally able to do is hint at my problems. I'm always constantly worrying about what people will think when they hear what i have to say, so i tend to just cover up how sad i actually am by pretending to be a happy go lucky guy who always knows the funny memes, and who always has a good quip to everything.
ruby is a very personal character to me, she represents (and even shares) every little thing I've been hiding from the people around me ever since i first realized where exactly i was on the lgbt scale. ruby as a character is a me who, at some point, finally finds support for all of the problems i despise talking about, and if i wanna end Memestar properly.. I'm gonna need to bring that stuff up at some point, which is especially frightening when my beta, and partner, is my real life sister, yeah ghost and i are blood.
Ghost has been suggesting therapists to me, listening to my constant bitching, being the only emotional support I have, for the better part of my conscious life, so she's really the last person i should be trying to hide from, she deserves to know what's really going on, and i am a story teller after all (god knows she's heard enough pitches to last a life time).
Now you might be asking yourself "why a comic?" And the answer is simple.
My writing style is SUPER visual (hence why most of the original stuff I'm working on will be comics) I'd be able to make certain scenes way more impactful, I'd be able to make action scenes that aren't hard as shit to read (you know what you did chapter three) and it'd be good practice for my future works. Continuing memestar as a comic would be the most beneficial option for you and me both, hence why i felt the need to ask about it.
To be honest doing a rewrite on fanfiction is the simplest way, but it's also the least fun. Honestly when fanfictions switch to comics i hate that shit.. But again, i felt i should ask anyways, i get if you guys aren't into the idea (frankly I'm not super about it either) but i do genuinely want your opinions on that (even if i probably won't end up doing it anyways).
I'll be posting one final update once the rewrite has reached chapter ten.
