Notice of Removal- POSSIBLY IMPORTANT FOR BTI FANS

Journal Entry: Tue Nov 10, 2009, 2:08 AM


This is a journal entry specifically created to warn people that on the weekend of the 28th-29th November, the entire Hardly Human novel, including the Coda, will be removed from Deviant Art.
This is because I am worried about art thieves and idea theft.
If you would like a complete and uncut copy (I altered it for the purpose of submitting, so that if people were to steal, they would not be able to produce ALL of it) then please note me or catch me through any means possible, and ask me. This will only be possible for people who know me in person- any others, you'll have to wait until it's published!!! XD Sorry.

ALSO BEING REMOVED:
-Names
-Paradox
-Torn


If you want a copy of these, same applies as above.

A reminder that Back To Infinity, Dark And Light Auroras(ARGH. KITSCHY TITLE UNDER CONSTRUCTION) and all characters, events, villains therein are copyright to me. I will take action should you try and profit from my ideas.

THIS IS AN ARTISTIC RANT. ABOUT. SEQUELS.

Journal Entry: Mon Nov 2, 2009, 7:30 PM


Sequels. We hear about them all the time. WOW, THERE'S A REALLY GOOD MOVIE. Wow, I love it. Wow, we made alot of money out of it!
NOW LET'S MAKE A SEQUEL.

TWO WORDS.
NO. THANKYOU.

Unfortunately, we live in the age of poorly written sequels written on the economical whim of companies/directors/producers. Sequels are no longer creative, planned matters. Sequels are now vomitted from the biros of money-crazed idiots, suddenly, and depend on the economic success of the innocent and usually worthy predecessor. If the movie is a flop, they don't bother. If the movie is a success, they think the public is DROOLING FOR MORE.
Which they'd find, if they'd take their noses out of their gold-driven world and pay some attention, IS NOT THE CASE.
These sequels are borne of 2 unfortunate factors in today's society, the first being greed and the second being today's high powered, rushed, stressed lifestyle.
For the people who want sequels, it may be a whim. They need to stop for a moment, and think, and watch the movie again. They need to take it in, to be truly happy with the movie, to enjoy it and to consider it from a serious point of view rather than a quick-to-judge, prejudiced view. Then, if they decide that the movie is suitable for a sequel, can they have their opinion.

Gone are the days when sequels are planned from the start, when the original story is created TO HAVE a sequel. Here are the days when a self-contained, complete, nourished story is then tainted by a spoiling, rude successor that spoils the original clarity, purity and meaning of the original film.

FOR GOODNESS SAKES, PEOPLE. IF YOU MAKE A MOVIE AND WANT A SEQUEL, MAKE THE STORY FLOW SO A SEQUEL IS NOT ABRUPT AND HORRIBLE!!! If you've created a story that begins and ends perfectly, and ALL COMPLICATIONS are solved, DO NOT MAKE A SEQUEL. Construct the story so that there is an underlying plot, or some kind of remaining problem! Either that, or CREATE INTENSE CURIOSITY at the end of the novel that FORESHADOWS what might happen in the future! AND THEN create a sequel!!!

Giving a movie a self-contained title also indicates it is a SELF-CONTAINED movie, yes? Therefore, if you want to make sequel/s, IMPLY that it is the first of 2, or the first in a series!

It is also an unfortunate fact that in today's society, empathy and true imagination is a dying art. Upon a self-contained movie (that hasn't been dogged by a sequel, thank goodness) if it is constructed so, the audience should be encouraged to think about what might happen afterwards, and decide, based upon their morals, what should happen and what they think about it. The movie-makers should think about this, should try and touch the audience through their movie, or make them laugh, or SOMETHING, not extract every last dollar from their wallet!
A sequel simply throws off this natural empathy and encouragement of human imagination! It creates an epilogue that demands attention and forces awkward canonicity.

However maybe it is the pure fact that the many learned critics out there who abhore sequels, do just that, that people keep making cheap sequels. They will see the movie scrupulously, critically, but nevertheless will see the movie. Word will get around about their abhoration and others will be keen to judge of their own accord. Human curiosity should not be manipulated in such a manner.

Having watched countless sequels who throw off the originality and creativity of the original movie and taint it with a spoiling of the imagination, I am endlessly disappointed by the efforts of people who are trying to demand the human imagination sets off on an electric-fenced, one way street.
Movie-making should be a heartfelt passion, not a whimful, money-crazed industry.


If you read this rant the whole way through and would like to flame me or kill me or something, I ask politely for you to please keep your opinions to yourself. I respect the opinions of other people however seek the right to express my own opinions also, which I have just done. Please consider that I do not wish to brainwash everyone into thinking my way, I just wanted to express an opinion.

[]NOPE.

ABOUT IKExALICIA.
Alicia Sombrer?

[]Bad idea.
[]It's cool, but isn't it obvious to her, though, that Ike's gay?

Will Ike tell Alicia his little secret?
[]YES, he has to; it's moral.
[]NO WAI. IT'S SEKRIT. AND EMBARRASSING.

What will Alicia's reaction be?
[]EW. I HATE YOU. She'll instantly dump him.

[]I STILL LOVE YOU. She'll try and work through it with Ike and it'll work.
[]She'll try and work through it with Ike but after a while it won't work.

ABOUT GEMMA (and BOLT):

Is BOLT a good idea?
[]Yes.
[]No.
[]Meh. We'll see.

Would you like to see more of Gemma?
[]HELLS YEAH.
[]HELLS NO.
[]Meh. I don't really care. She's okay the way she is.
[]It depends.

How will Gemma's story end? (:iconthorngeld:, you may NOT answer this question!!!)
[]End? It won't end. She'll just continue on with Timeo and Den-War.
[]She dies somehow.
[]She goes back to Earth one day.
[]She stays on a planet somewhere.

Will Gemma start to like Dev again?
[]OHOHO YEAH. (Because it's impulsive.)
[]OH HELL NO. (she'd better not.)
[]No, because she'd be afraid she'd make Devereaux depressed.
[]No, because she'd be afraid of making herself depressed.
[]YES BECAUSE DEV FLIRTS AND THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS. >8D

Will Gemma fall in love with someone else?

[]No, she loves Peter and he can never come back and no one can ever replace him.
[]No, she's just not into that sort of stuff.
[]No, she's too occupied with BOLT


ABOUT DEVIKE:
Will they meet again?
[]No, never. Dev said so.
[]No, probably not. But they might come close.
[]Yes; but in the far, far future, when they're, like, old.
[]Yes; eventually, in the next five novels
[]Yes; soonish, in the next three novels
[]Yes; in the next novel.

Does Devereaux love Ike?
[]Yes; and Ike only now, very deeply.
[]Yes; but he loves Susanna more.
[]Yes; he loves Susanna as well but not as much as Ike.
[]No; he sort of fancies him and thinks he's cute like he fancies everyone else but doesn't have deep feelings for him.
[]No; only as a friend. Absolutely no deep feelings. His mind's too preoccupied with Susanna.
[]No; not at all.

GENERAL:
The best slash/part-slash pairing (OH THE COMBINATIONS YOU COULD HAVE):
[]DevTimeo (HAWHAWHAW)
[]DenSusa
[]DenGem
[]DevDen
[]GemSusa
[]TimeoSusa
[]GemTimeo
[]DevKaren
[]DenIke (wow, that is just weird.)
[]OTHARRR >8D (list here)(And btw DevIke isn't really slash if you think about it.)

Would it be a good plot if someone else fell in love with Den-War?
[]YUM.
[]Okay.
[]Meh.
[]Er... maybe not.
[]EW.

HARDLY HUMAN:
[]1
[]2
[]3
[]4
[]5
[]6
