Here they are! The long awaited entries for the Fanfiction Contest!

Everyone with an active PANE profile is encouraged to vote for their three favourites. I will be weighting the scores based on people's order of preference. Your first choice gets 3 points, the second choice gets 2, and third gets 1. As with the previous contest, I will be the tiebreaker should one be needed. Feel free to explain why you voted one way or the other.

If you have an entry in the contest, you may not vote for yourself.

Voting will close on May 2nd at 11:59 pm (I extended the entry period by a day, it's only fitting to do the same with voting.)

Without further ado, here are the entries for this contest!

CCC, your post went like on and on and on and on and on... oh, did I mention on yet?
My post... I never knew I changed my name from 'Cortoma' to 'Cortana'... Ah well, close enough konata.gif


--------------------
My body...
is made out of swords.
Iron is my blood
and glass is my heart.


I have overcome countless battlefields undefeated.
Not once have I retreated,
Nor once have I been understood.
Always alone....
On the hill of swords...
intoxicated by victory...


Thus, this life has no meaning...
This body...surely was...
Made out of blades.

Even if it's terrible, I like to think it's detailed. =]

If that's not detailed I don't know anymore ^^, I have to say the way you write is special, I can't even find the right words to express what I think of it. (that good)

Togee's Darius Dovakin I read that and knew 'Fus Roh Dah' would be included in the post.
Jonahman10's was the most detailed one of all, and you liked it pretty much. ^^
Kamaitchi's was virtuous... it had a message hidden inside.
Douken Sota's was short, yet the point was taken in a swift manner, inspiring how he could be so descriptive in such a small text. I guess he goes by the 'Less is more' tactic. Can't blame him.



To the other guys: Hey, get over here and vote!!!! grin.gif

Sometimes, it is really hard to read something when it seems to resemble something else (like the Dr. Who one.... it felt like a collection of big words to make one look smart...)

I was impressed because all of the big words were used correctly in a way that was totally true to the character.

In that vein, I'm inclined to disagree. happy.gif

Adelaide uses intelligent language because she's very intelligent, which is something that post-doctoral physicists tend to be. Yes, there's technobabble (though Woodin cardinals, aleph-notation and transfinite sets are all real, albeit appropriated for my own ends), some of which is named after science-fiction authors, but A, it's only used briefly, and B, it has a purpose. Adelaide is trying to get back home the way she knows how, and she knows that it works because it got her here in the first place, however accidentally. Through this, she is shown to be cutting and rather mean-spirited, which Kevin (named after Kevin J. Anderson, who wrote balls-out crazypants space opera The Saga Of Seven Suns) cuts through to analyse and begin to help her get over the issues present here. She's only just arrived in Cerulean at this point - a couple of weeks at most have gone by since she fell out of the sky and headbutted Route 10. Her feelings of isolation are almost crippling, which is why she throws herself into her work with such abandon and is so horribly rude to everyone she deals with at first. Simply put, Adelaide is in a depressive spiral, and as someone who goes into them on a regular basis I can tell you that when someone is in them they're not nice people.

But hey, what do I know? I mean, sure, I wrote something that actually mattered to the character and showed her to have a deeply-held personal philosophy that she clings to as a lifeline to a world she may never see again if she doesn't get every bit of incredibly complex mathematics exactly 100% right, but that's clearly just me wanting to sound like a big ol' smartass teacher's pet. If I was real smart, I'd just have my character sit around in a pizza parlour and look for something cool to hear from an audience. Because that other stuff's for total dweebs, amirite?

Not that I'm at all put out or anything...

I had the same thing with CCC's and Jonahman's. It went on and on... I was like walloftext.gif , at the end I got the picture of what they meant, I even found mine a little bit too... uh, lame actually. :p

At least my vocabulary went up quite a lot after finishing reading everything ^^

Awsome



I try to use simpler language when writing Amelia's family because of their agrarian base, but I suppose Mr. Darsay is obviously an allusion to Pride and Prejudice. Amelia herself is someplace in between the two. But personally, I find dialogue itself more difficult to write so I try to write around it as much as possible. Contrastingly, Entry C was the opposite, being mostly based in dialogue.

Overall, I felt that my story was rushed, especially towards the end.

Being a procrastinator, I'll probably be the last to vote. I liked all of the stories but here is how my vote goes;

1. B
2. F
3. C

To be honest, I thought only thequote was required, not a background story, so I pretty much pulled something out of thin air for mine ^^; So part of me isn't surprised that i didn't get a thing. But congrats 2G
