Right, so this is just a super quick note to let people know that the next Displaced Hero chapters probably won't be out until the 23rd (24th at latest) instead of the 22nd as usual. I had a very mild amount of writer's block, caused more by trying to figure out how to get from Point A to Point Q in the story without too much boring repetition. Then, I have an eye appointment tomorrow where the...
2025-07-22 01:48:33 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, ladies, gents, and others! I mentioned this poll in the comments of the latest Halfway Broken release. What this is about is the events of the Whitebeard vs Marine battle at Marineford. Specifically, whether or not you want me to actually write a perspective or two showing the battle!
Now, first let me be clear. We will get an overview of what happened during the batt...

I am very glad I got this done early, as I've been down with food poisoning for the last 2 and a half days. Ugh. As is, I'm putting this out a day early both because I've been itching to post it now that it's done, and because I'm still a bit under the weather. Going ahead with at least the Patreon release (I'll hold off the public chapter until tomorrow, probably), is a way t...
2025-07-15 01:31:51 +0000 UTC View PostAlright! Time for the August Story Poll to get up and running. Honestly, I meant to do it yesterday, but I got on a bit of a roll with the upcoming Halfway Broken update and didn't get to it. That update is coming along very nicely. I'm about 7,800 words into it already and I'm quite pleased with how the biggest twist of the whole thing has come along.
Now as for this month's po...
2025-07-10 23:51:46 +0000 UTC View PostWoo! Got a slightly late start on the poll story this month since I had to reread much of Pandora's Box to make sure I wasn't tripping over myself. Thankfully I also had the bits going forward from where we left off in February more completely outlined than usual, so it's out on time! This particular batch of chapters is right at the 15,000 word mark, and spans the entire summer between Year 1 ...
2025-07-08 23:20:29 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, I'd hoped to have this done to put out with the chapters yesterday, but ran out of time. So...a day later, it's now an 'extra' ;-). It's been a fair while, in-story, since we've seen all the characters' stat blocks. In fact, we haven't seen anyone but Yamato's since Skypiea! They've had a couple of adventures and a serious training montage or two since then, so...updated stat blocks ah...

Alright, folks! Time for the first fruits of the new order! Specifically, the fact that Halfway Broken has now taken the place of My Hero Automata in the update queue. That actually did cause me a slight issue, in this highly specific case, as I had to figure out how to split the content up without ruining any Epic Moments that were upcoming. Normally, that won't be a...
2025-07-01 15:49:43 +0000 UTC View PostFirst off...ow! Enough of you split your votes this time that the math by the end of everything made my eyes cross T-T. Second off, the difference between My Hero Automata and Why Was There No Truck?! is somewhat instructive to how much the vote weighing actually does matter. They got the same number of votes (18 each), but a significantly larger number of the higher ...

Well, one way or the other its here. Just over 10,000 words, with a bit of a twist for the story that I'm not sure how most will feel about it? I kinda made a liar out of past self, though in my defense, my past self very much believed what he sai...

Alright guys, gals, and others! I'm sure some of you, who have clued into the fact I normally put up the next month's poll just a day or two after the last poll winner, have been wondering where it was. The answer to that is actually pretty simple. Specifically, that the 2025-06-13 10:25:36 +0000 UTC View Post
Whew! Okay! Sorry about this being a couple of days later than usual, folks. I've had some delays caused by a couple of medical issues I don't care to get into (One of them was a root canal, the other unresolved currently, which is why I don't want to get into it. Too complicated.) To be fair, I did give you guys, gals, and others an 2025-06-10 07:14:10 +0000 UTC View Post
Alright! Bit of a surprise for you all, even if I've mentioned adding to this slowly from time to time. I am working on Halfway Broken's update, though some life circumstances have slowed that down. I'm not going to get into why, but I'm in a great deal of pain at the moment, which made it easier to edit this than to write new stuff. Halfway Broken might be a little later than...
2025-06-06 06:57:31 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, folks. I've been promising this one for the last month or so. When I first started this Patreon, My Hero Automata was the single most popular of the initial fics I launched. At that time, that solidified is as one of the two stories that got guaranteed an update every month. Originally, the other guaranteed fic was Mass Effect: Final Error, as it was about 80% complet...

A reminder first! The poll regarding the Sith Girl addition to Displaced Hero is still ongoing! Currently, the perverts are carrying the day ;-). But only about 60% of those that voted said Sith Girl in have had their say so far. So it could easily still swing another way yet!...
2025-06-01 23:35:28 +0000 UTC View PostImportant Note: This poll's contents will contain some spoilers for the possible background of the OC Sith Girl that will be joining the Displaced Hero relationship. It is just general background, but if you want to avoid any spoilers entirely, you shouldn't read this!

Whew! Wasn't sure I was going to quite make this on my regular schedule. Mostly because of the editing, really. The writing was done in time, but the editing pass I struggled to squeeze in. Anyway, I managed, even if I'm a bit wiped out and a bit less than confident in the quality of those edits.

Mawhahahahaah, at long last, we have an update for Eridium Dreams! The update, as it happens, is just over 14,100 words. A little short of the typical 15k target. In this case, I'm afraid that's because I needed to do a complete reread of everything that already existed, since it had been so long since this got updated.
That said, I also made a lot of corrections and some minor additions/...
2025-05-08 19:46:38 +0000 UTC View PostShoot! Sorry folks! Thanks to the two people that alerted me quickly that I'd entered Luxum twice. It's not possible to edit poll options once you post, so I deleted the original. Then, for some reason, Patreon wouldn't let me repost it for a bit. No idea what was up with that.
Warning! Not Safe for Work Artwork Ahead!
Alright folks! Happy 'Star Wars Day!'...
First of all...thanks to The Foreign Traveler, we have a piece of art for Izumi :-). They commissioned a piece for her from Lionheart Studios here on Patreon.

One Piece: Halfway Broken: 120
Harry Potter - Pandora's Box: 67.7 + 30% Boost = 88.01
A Very Confused Pokémon Adventure = 69.2
Hey everyone! So, I know I mentioned a couple of times that there might be a bit of an extra this month, due to me getting writer's block working on Pokémon Adventure. In truth, there's a bit more to it than that! So...where in the imminently smackable buttocks of superheroines everywhere did this monstrosity really come from, you might ask? You know, aside from Novus's deranged mind....

A bit over 10,000 words, these chapters hopefully wrap up the bulk of the transition I needed to do in order to shift the focus of the fic from its previous direction to the one you lot voted for.
