Last time, apparently the main fantasy element of the books is the way the wilderness works.

Sunday Carapaces Part 18 (12 reviews, 14 stories)

Wherein we complete the sixteenth of November. I felt accomplished until I found that checking the archive, I appear to be some four hundred stories behind.

The Fault in Our Stars, Chapter 5

Last time, Green loves Green. This time, all of these characters are so unlikable.

Graceling Ch20

Last time, Metaleyes says that if she doesn't want to get married, they can still have sex.

Upcoming

So here are the top four:

Pokemon Blue 99 (38%)
Matched 96 (37%)
Battle Royale 81 (31%)
Delirium 78 (30%)

Combined with the secondary poll on what people don't want, we get

Matched 96-36 = 60
Delirium 78-39 = 39
Pokemon Blue 99-76 = 23
Battle Royale 81-77 = 4

This is why it's important to vote in both polls.

So it seems I should go with Matched, which has almost as many votes as Pokemon Blue and far fewer antivotes. Graceling should wrap up one week before the end of this month, at which point I'll be posting the first few chapters of WWZ and carapace fic (you will learn to love them or else) until June. Depending on the situation, I might just go with Pokemon Blue anyway, it'll have more to do with how much time it looks like I'll have to work on these.

The polls will remain up for a bit in case this does not properly reflect your will, after which I'll throw up a new set. I checked out Unwind, which was brought up a while ago and immediately dismissed on the grounds I don't need to touch things everyone agrees are stupid, and discovered that actually it was well received and actual professionals in charge of actual reviews they get paid actual money for said things like "the power of the novel lies in what it doesn't do: come down explicitly on one side or the other." The sides being if murdering a thirteen year old for their organs is right or not.

So that'll be added to the polls next, along with sequels to stuff I've already done. So if you really, really want to learn what happens next in the book series about if raping thirteen year olds is right or not or any of the rest, you can vote for that soon. And if you have more suggestions, you should give them now because I can't edit the polls once I put them up.

Edit: adding links into the Future Books post, so people can check out the books' openings easily.

Graceling Ch19

Last time, so, Leck's evil.

Graceling Ch18

Last time, Katsa and Metaleyes hang out together. Also, apparently Leck is evil. You know, Metaleyes, if you were so suspicious why'd it take you so long to ever check things out?

Sunday Carapaces Part 16 (9)

My poor computer's a mess, this took forever because it keeps freezing up when I do anything on a webpage. Hopefully it'll be a little happier now that I've worked through a few pages.

Oh well. There was a long one with plot today!
