Alright.  I've got Purvis, Chirei, Donut's and most of mine in.  Joveus and Chirei both forgot to turn their titles into links, but that's not too big a deal, and it'd be more effort to track their fixes then it would be to just fix it myself.

Which means the rest of you need to send me what we got before we declare you legally dead and take all your stuff.  Don't try to finish it all right now, send what you've got!  Because the unfinished fics will be thrown out for anyone to summarize soon.  Which means that those of you who are done can start working on more fics!  Aren't you happy.  To start with, here's the rest of my set.  There's no way my brain will handle these.

Expect this post to be updated soon with more unfinished summaries.

Sakana's body has been found, a victim of the "Johb" disease.  He leaves the following possessions to the world:

Ah...whoops.  :blush: Sorry about that.

As for the other fics: I've got a good bit of free time on my hands lately. I'd be happy to tackle all of the rest of the leftovers if no one minds.

If someone does mind, then I'll lay claim to the following:

Lacrimaque         http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,13579.0.html
*Gensoukyo My Beloved      http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,14550.0.html

*Unprecedented Serious Affair   http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,14766.0.html

Edit: GOOD LORDY Lacrimaque is freaking long  :o I shall endeavor to summarize it nonetheless.

Edit2: And now I see why no one touched Lacrimaque and Gensoukyo My Beloved.

Are you still summarizing the super long fics? I was going to have a whack at them, but if you already did so...

I've completed Lacrimaque, and am currently summarizing Gensoukyo My Beloved. Would you like to take over the latter?

Welp, time to put a foot in my mouth...

I have finished the initial batch of fics I laid claim to, but unfortunately due to personal reasons I won't be able to summarize the rest until next-next week at least. If anyone would like to attempt the others, please go ahead. Sorry folks.  :(

I was saving Ammy and Esi's lists in the hope that they'd finish up.  Sadly the Great Spirit of Hope was busy reviving Tokyo, so their summaries remain unfinished, in addition to fish's work.

One more question: is there any particular meaning to stories that have a * before them? Like, A Greater Chinese Empire and New World 3 have *s, but Dear Diary and A Peaceful Day in Gensokyo do not, for example.

Just popping in to say: I will not be able to summarize this one since, ah, I'm the one who wrote the fic.  :blush: I'm afraid that someone else will have to tackle it. (Don't be shy, it's not that long.  :3)

Heads up: as far as I can tell, "Gensokyo's Tales from the Crypt" Touhou Horror Stories does not seem to actually have any story content--therefore, a summary will not be necessary.

Currently the following fics have been given the "Other" genre.  Given that most of the things under that list are scripts games or other true oddities, I think it would be better to categorize them differently.  I'm open to suggestions.


Name: A Greater Chinese Empire

Name: The Lion, The Wolf, The Wasp, and The Hawk

Name: Tempest Sapphira

Name: A Sword Among Pens

Name: Flight of the Immortal Fire

Ah, for these three, I take responsibility.

I classified A Greater Chnese Empire as "Other" largely because I wasn't quite sure how else to classify it. The work is largely an alternate history story told primarily through prose that was designed to emulate historical fact books--as a result, I couldn't figure out what genre to put it under. I suppose we could put it under "Action", since there are descriptions of military conflict in it, or perhaps "Drama" since there are occasional dialogue exchanges illustrating certain dealings between important historical/fictional people.

I put A Sword Among Pens as "Other" because none of the genres listed seemed to fit it. The story is a monologue from the perspective of an Oni and how she's getting stressed in a particularly Oni-like manner due to isolation from others of her kind. It doesn't fit "Drama", unless I'm misunderstanding what we mean by "Drama"; it doesn't fit Mystery and Suspense, since that appears to be for detective-style mystery stories and similar works. Everything else didn't fit either.

Finally, I put Flight of the Immortal Fire down as "Other" since it's technically a Quest, i.e. a choose-your-own-ending story where the plot is directly influenced, to at least some extent, by participants.

As for The Lion, The Wolf, the Hawk, and the Wasp, which I wrote...I can understand someone having difficulty assigning a genre to this one as well. It's a series of short stories that flesh out setting elements in the Dark Souls videogame via myth-like, fireside tales. They don't neatly fall in a particular genre, since the style of story-telling was designed to emulate much older works: there's action, yes, but it's not the sort of tense, high-flying action we're used to whenever we think of something labeled "Action", etc.


Edit: If we're looking for suggestions on Tempest Saphirra, I would recommend something like Drama, ##Slice of Life.

It took far longer then normal, and casualty rates were staggering but in the end, we made it!  The library cleanup is complete.

Thanks to all of our volunteers.  And an extra special thanks to Joveus Molai, who did about half the list himself.  It's because of him that the list got done at all, and for that I've asked he be given the librarian title.  Congrats you earned it.

The catalog's gotten so big that we had to split up the post, but everything should be in its correct space.  There's a lot of writing about, and hopefully it'll be easier to find because of this.
