    Pokémon 26 years

    Hey! Here for Catnip, read the first chapter. Here are my thoughts. This beginning scene was pretty confusing to me. I understand that it's probably partway intentional with how otherworldly the events happening are, but a lot of it for me was due to stuff being hard to parse, like here and...

    Pokémon Hunter, Haunted

    Oh! In that case, you might actually enjoy Seiren, a story that comes before Hunter, Haunted. It's practically goreless (hence its lower rating), much lighter in tone and Red's phobia of technology (due to PCs being basically death machines on his original journey) is a major plot element. Helix...

    Pokémon Hunter, Haunted

    The opening line is something that has been kind of a thorn in my side for a longer time. The thing is that it is supposed to be "breath", the noun, since it's meant to be observation/narration rather than an instruction he'd be telling himself, which using "breathe" makes it seem like - but a...

    Pokémon The Meaning of Power

    Hey there! Here for Catnip. Very sorry for being so late, it's been busy over here. Anyway, I've read Chapter 1 and here are my thoughts. Commentary So, reading this chapter, I felt like the prose got redundant in a few places, this being one example. The boy is described as being in...

    Pokémon Different Eyes

    Chapter Two italian swearing On the one hand this is thoughtful, but on the other I'd expect a lot of morphs named ShadowBlood DarkFury walking around With how much description this scene had of Salem's sensations, I was expecting a mention of the floor being cold but it didn't come...

    Pokémon Whine-Yelp (2021 Contest Oneshot)

    Not all pokémon speak the same! Canine language is indeed limited to canines. It's also not just any canines, but sapient ones - only sapients can use complex verbal language like ours. Completely wild houndoom and other canine pokémon communicate like our wolves. I think my intention with the...

    Pokémon White Swan, Black Swan

    Hey! Here for Catnip. As you requested, I've read the revised first chapter. I skimmed the prologue for a recap as well, but I didn't pick up much that had changed so I have no comments to give there. As the second half of this chapter also seemed to match the content of the corresponding scene...

    Pokémon Hunter, Haunted

    It was basically different paths the conversation and Red's freaking out about the spider would have taken. So both in a way, I suppose. Well, I would argue that she was trying to de-escalate the situation once Red apologized and seemed to come more to his senses, which made the situation seem...

    Original The Cogs of Fate: Beginnings (short story)

    Hey there! I'm here for Catnip. I have to say, though, that this review might not hit 250 words - the story is very short, and I'm very unfamiliar with the source material. I hope it's alright. Missing another row change between these paragraphs. The characters seem to talk mostly in a...

    Pokémon Hunter, Haunted

    I'm really glad to hear that went well! I spent so long going back and forth with that. Probably about half the outtakes I had for this chapter were the spider parts done slightly differently. This is true and it annoys me, but it is indeed because of plot reasons. I also think of Jordan as...

    Threadmarks: Chapter Eight - Illness

    EDIT: I've been thinking about some things and I've decided I want to put up a disclaimer regarding the psychiatrist scene and about Red's "diagnosis" in general. Catch it under the spoiler. --- IT'S BEEN FOUR MONTHS AHAHA how did that happen? well, i guess summer job and a really difficult...

    Inspirations Behind Your Characters

    This question popped into my mind and it seemed like one better suited for a forum thread than just a Storycrafter ping. So: What - or who - are some inspirations behind your characters? Have they been inspired by some other fictional character or some real person you've known? Has seeing some...

    Pokémon Find A Way Home

    Hey there, here for Catnip! Sorry that it's late. Anyway, I've read the first chapter, and here are my thoughts. Before I go into line commentary like I usually do, I'd like to point out whether I'm personally LGBT+ or on the autistic spectrum to establish the perspective I would have into...

    Pokémon A New Path

    Hey! Sorry it took a while, but I’ve now read the second chapter and here are my thoughts. You’ll be glad to hear I thought this chapter was a lot better than the first! A lot the issues I had with the first one weren’t present in this, and some were actually patched as your DMs promised. First...
