ANNOUNCEMENT

To everyone who reads and enjoys my smutfics, I apologise in advance.

Yesterday, I was accused (on another site) of being something I most decidedly am not, based on the fact that I've written quite an amount of underage smutfic and posted it to QQ and AO3. The accusation was shocking and came from more than one person, and it took me awhile to even be able to think rationally about it.

There are apparently people who, having read both my SFW and NSFW work, have decided that even my pure-as-the-driven-snow SFW works are skeevy by association and are warning others about my fics, sight unseen. And they have, as mentioned above, unkind opinions of me.

In short, what happens in Vegas apparently doesn't stay in Vegas.

With that in mind, and keeping in mind that I want to become a serious writer at some point, I have made the decision (after some soul-searching) to retire my underage smutfics, effective immediately. I've already deleted them from AO3 and I'm working my way through the places where I've got them posted on QQ.

The last thing I want, after all, is for someone to post a link from one of those fics to a review of one of my novels, and sink it beyond repair.

Those fics that have a SFW version will remain and continue in those versions, but I'm afraid NSW (which was, frankly, starting to give way to porn-before-plot) and Meet the Heberts are going away.

I will continue writing all my other fics as per normal, but those particular style of smutfics will be no longer be part of my repertiore.

Once again, I apologise to everyone.

Sorry to hear about that. That you would be given so much trouble. I don't see why they would give you such a hard time. There was nothing wrong with your NSFW fics. Except some minor spelling and grammar issues. But that's true of everyone's fics. Even professional writers have trouble with that.

Good luck now.

P.S. Does this mean the next chapter of "One More Trigger" will be released sooner perhaps?

You only get to choose 6 - not sure what might get adjusted or cut off your vote to make it compliant.

Vote 170: Recoil
Thanks, as always, for voting.

Voting points this round: 842

Announcements
Throne3d 's vote counting system is once more working well. Thanks, Throne!

It has come to my attention that I have been slacking off. I'm going to try to speed up my posting of vote stories.

Reminder: I have removed Meet the Heberts and NSW from my vote lineup. Danny & Taylor will be strictly SFW from here on in. Apologies to everyone who was voting just for those.

Novel is PUBLISHED. [Welcome to Utopia]

I'm posting it, one chapter per week, in my sig.
Link to get, if interested: https://books2read.com/u/b68xeZ
Amazon: https://www.amazon.com.au/s?k=welcome+to+utopia&ref=nb_sb_noss_2

Any votes to any stories not on the list will not be applied to any stories, on or off the list. The stories that have been taken off the list will not be abandoned, just put on hiatus until I've actually finished a significant number of stories that are actually still on the list.

MirrorVerse 1140
Bait & Switch 1164
Junior Hero 140
Nemesis 161
All Alone 25

Afraid of the Dark [0] (Danny is an expy of John Wick. Taylor just went through the Locker. Be very afraid.)
All Alone [0] (Emma dies in the alley, so Taylor makes a new friend. Sophia Hess. But after some very bad decisions. she's all alone again. Or is she?)
Another Way [0] (Marquis beat shit out of BBB, then spent the next eight years in Boston. Now that his daughter has triggered, he's come back. She's having a ball.)
Conflict [0] (It's 1980. Contessa managed to shank Eden without getting nerfed. Doctor Mother now has Eidolon's powerset, without the insecurity complex. They've got two years to prepare before Scion shows up.)
Entanglement [0] (Taylor has her bug powers. However, she is now randomly body-swapping with a Taylor from an Earth without super-powers. Both are rather confused.)
Fuck Worm! [0] {NSFW} (A double SI, where a couple gets dropped into the Wormverse on opposite sides. Only just started.)
Gravitas [0] (A crossover fanfic with a novel I'm in the process of writing).
I'm HALPING! [0] (Taylor has a new friend. He's a cute teenage boy, who also happens to be an Endbringer. Cue hijinks.)
One Bad Day [0] (Sophia murders Grue. Taylor murders Sophia and Madison. Lisa murders her new team leader. Amy mindwipes Vicky. It's one hell of a bad day.)
Prodigal Daughter [0] {Taylor isn't quite right. But that's okay. She's Jack Slash's daughter. Brockton Bay is in for ... a time.)
Yet Another Way [0] (A spin-off of Another Way, where Carol killed Amy. The BBB is now out of the picture, and Marquis has managed to adopt the Dallon and Pelham kids.)

A Friend At Winslow - Non-Taylor-centric, but involving Taylor.
The Centre Cannot Hold - Taylor gets a really weird power, and makes full use of it. Crack.
Dinah Alcott, Ruler of the World - Exactly what it says on the tin.
EverYthiNg YoU kNow iS WroNg - The Birdcage is a luxury resort. Marquis was sandbagging. It's all a LIE, I tell you! Pure crack.
Force Projection - A sequel to my original fiction Number Two.
Hostile Takeover - Marquis had a son. He's just come back to Brockton Bay.
Identity Theft - An international freelancer needs to hide out in Brockton Bay. Guess who she looks like?
Isel - Prequel to my original fiction King's Man
Parallel - A time travel story, involving Taylor's son from after Gold Morning.
Living in Brockton Bay is Suffering - A perfect storm of bad events happens, leaving Tagg in charge of the PRT, based in Brockton Bay.

None that automatic error-checking did not catch. (Woo!)


On to the main event.

Hostage Situation 230
I, Panacea 143
One More Trigger 124

Following the unexpected drop-out of two fics (see Announcements) we have Recoil, soon to be followed by Confrontation II and then Reality Intrudes.

Check out Sleepyfoo for a reasonable prediction.


Anyway, thanks again for voting, and I hope you enjoy reading the stories as much as I enjoy writing them.


For anyone who hasn't voted on this thread before, the voting rules go as follows:

1) UP TO six votes. I will not count anything extra, and a write-in will likely be ignored (if I want to write a different story, I will, but at my own discretion). Suggestions are welcome, but I am under no obligation to carry them out. And just remember, the more stories I am writing, the longer it will take for your favourites to roll back around.
2) First vote is worth six points, second is worth five, and so on.
3) You can't vote twice on the same story. The voting code will count the last vote and ignore previous ones.
4) If I say "Voting is CLOSED", then this post comes up, with "Voting is OPEN" at the bottom, then you can vote again.
5) If I say "Voting will continue", it's still the same voting period. Voting has not restarted. You can not vote a second time.
6) When I have finished a few of the current fics, I will look at bringing stories back on to the list.
