Post-GRE

So I survived the GRE, and I'm still kinda recovering from the stress. It might take a little time to get to OOO Wonderful, if only because I still have quite a bit of catching up to do.

I'm likely going to do the music video reviews first, for two reasons: 1, they're less stressful, and 2, I want to discuss "Reverse/Re:Birth" more before I get to Goto's part of the endpoint analysis.

Then, probably in December or January, I'll get back to PRiS and picking on Andros.

Dark fic fragment

So, a distant third on my list of multichaptered fics to write (which is "Project Silver" and the YJ Birds of Prey, followed by this one) is an AU of Kamen Rider built off of the timeline shown in Let's Go Kamen Riders, based on the idea that the world didn't go back to normal after the Riders defeated Shocker. Take that universe and apply the world-rebuilding of Ajora's Salva Nos (a fic which cannot be recommended hard enough), and answer two big questions:

1. Who were the Riders in this world before they became Riders again?

2. What will they do now?

So, uh, this fragment is dark. Damn near pitch black. Some trigger warnings for a character becoming suicidal, along with some awful deaths throughout.
