Butterfly Effect: Authors' Notes and Outtakes: Chapter 33
Note: We understand that we are introducing elements that some people are not comfortable with, or do not find to their personaltaste. We understand this and are sad to see you go if you decide to stop reading. However, we would appreciate if you would leave without fanfare. Also, we are only going to be warning for explicit material — not certain pairings or certain types of pairings.
BE is a life fic. It has always been lifefic. Life does not warn for pairings.
Bard Linn: Now, with that out of the way... Hello everyone! We hope you enjoyed this chapter of BE - brought to you by Spring Break. :)
Kiraya: Bard Linn's, anyway.
Bard Linn: Well, yes, but isn't that what counts? *ego*
Kiraya: :P
Bard Linn: Well, we get to see more of the ladies this chapter, which was fun.
Kiraya: The ladies need more love.
Bard Linn: They do. I feel kind of bad they come in and out so much, but... well, the story IS mostly about Cloud, Zack, Sephiroth and to anextent, Vincent. The main plot lines, anyway.
Kiraya: *nodnod*
Bard Linn: Side plot lines - that's another story.
Kiraya: Well, not exactly. :P
Kiraya: But not for telling at the moment.
Bard Linn: ....I have the urge to make some sort of "another age, another story" crack.
BardLinn: Once upon a time, long ago, there was a dashing silver haired prince, who had to go rescue the black, spiky haired princess from the evil witch? XD
Kiraya: Zack: I resent being called a princess, thank you very much.
Bard Linn: Why do you think I did it?
Zack: *sulk*
Sephiroth: *sighs*
Bard Linn: ....you know, whenever we're writing these chapters I can always think of outtakes, then we either have to can them because it'll give something away or I forget it.
Kiraya: ...I'm bad at humor.
BardLinn: Though my brain is trying to do something with Aeris playing marbles and her materia being her shooter - rather than a materia, sheinsists.
Kiraya: Well, it certainly isn't doing her any good for anything else...
Bard Linn: Nope. Just sits there and looks pretty.
Bard Linn: This chapter is pretty tame, actually. It's kind of a bridge between plot arcs, plus does some character building.
Kiraya: I love character building. <3
Bard Linn: Me too. It's lots of fun.
Kiraya: More fun than plot. :P
Bard Linn: Kinda weird how little of the core three are in this chapter though. Not intentional but...
Kiraya: Well, the story may focus on them, but it IS about all the people affected by this change in events...
Bard Linn: Truth.
BardLinn: Anyway...the results to last chapter really amused us - well, atleast me. There are so many people crying "not x pairing, please!" I think we got more response to Cloud noticing Tifa was, well, female than Sephiroth going mad.
Kiraya: And to think we originally thought people would be more likely to flip out over the Zack x Sephiroth thing...
Bard Linn: Yeah. Tis very amusing.
BardLinn: Hm...in other news, we have both been working on furthering thestory along. We're almost back up to our "be five chapters ahead" rule,though I go back to school Monday, so productivity is likely to drop again. :( I don't think we'll have another update until after Kiraya gets out of school, at the earliest.
Kiraya: That's only about a month away, though, readers, so don't worry!
Kiraya: ...eesh, just thinking about it makes me a little nervous, though.
Bard Linn: *hugs!* It'll be okay. :)
Bard Linn: And just think....about two and a half months left for me. Blargh.
BardLinn: Oh well. Should be getting my contract renewal soon, which will be good - especially if I have some of the same preps next year, 'cause that won't take as much time out. Of course, we're both looking at grad school...
Kiraya: Well, we'll try our best.
Kiraya: One thing's for sure, though -- we aren't planning on abandoning BE any time soon!
Bard Linn: No way!
Bard Linn: BE is our BABY. *cuddles it*
Bard Linn: ...it's growing up rather fast though.
Kiraya: Certainly faster than we originally expected, despite all the unplanned-for stuff that seems to be working its way in...
Bard Linn: *Cough*Chaos*Cough*
Bard Linn: In more ways than one.
Bard Linn: We're definitely over half way done though...its amazing.
Bard Linn: I don't know what I'm going to do when this is over.
Bard Linn: ....oh that
Bard Linn: 's right. The Bunny List.
Kiraya: ...which keeps getting longer, oddly enough.
Bard Linn: THEY'RE BUNNIES. THEY'RE COCKROACH BUNNIES!
Kiraya: .........that is a terrifying mental image.
Bard Linn: It is, isn't it.
Bard Linn: We should probably stop blathering and post.
Kiraya: Yes, probably.
Bard Linn: In that case - we will see you all again when we can and hope you enjoyed this chapter!
