Kiss of the Snake
@JayDee IKR, it’s like they’ve never even watched witchy movies or something. The whole “I can’t possibly be wrong, so the fact hitting me in the face must be the problem!” mentality amuses me, so I enjoyed this King. But don’t worry about the henchmen: labour unions come in real quick. Thank you for the review!

Woo! I want to read your dark and depraved.

Yaaaas! Exactly what I'm in the mood for.

Glad I could inspire something with that character, I do love dusting her off occasionally, and Corine seems quite cool.
And I do hope you do more with this setting. Ambitions versus typing fingers battle or not. Perhaps something deliciously dark, and depraved. Like a good dark red wine.

High praise coming from you. <3 
And I could really use Blackbird's help right now. Been dying to write something dark and thoroughly depraved again

It’s wonderful  
And while I’m here, I just wanted to say that I still miss Blackbird. I wonder if he’s out there somewhere in the ether, waiting for his chronicler to see him win his way through… somehow. Not nagging at all.
Just like this little piece here, you are a sensational writer. I am quite sure I haven’t told you that often enough.

A review for Kiss of the Snake
@pippychick I seriously adore you, Pippy. I’m so happy you enjoyed it, and calling it a dark fairytale made me blush. I like little challenges like this that allow me to indulge in a societal message or two. Thank you so much for the review! 

I’d wait for march. 
Cause you probably got stuck in the backlog but that doesn’t mean rejection.

So I have a question for those of you with experience with publishers. I submitted to one back in early October. It said to expect a 12-16 week wait, and now it’s been well over 16 weeks, I haven’t got a response, so I’m moving on and looking through other publishers. My issue is that a lot of them don’t allow simultaneous submissions. Some specifically say to “wait for an answer” from previous submissions. Would you submit anyway, or would you try to pester the previous publisher for a definite rejection?

I’d personally post ideas like that in the challenges forum, so people know where to find them when they need to. Whether or not it’s ‘alright’ is up to the forum mods, I imagine. 

That I can do, thank you BW

Given that the 12-16 week period fell in the holiday season, I’d give them to the middle of March. At that point, I’d poke them for a decision.

Valentine’s is just around the corner Haha.

Keying a whole story on one of those screens is a heck of an effort. I get pissed off half way through a tweet. Amazing work if you manage it!

I'm so glad you're in! Welcome back!

For me it really depends on the writer. For example the Dresden Files books are all ‘narrated’ from Harry’s POV and it really works. Othertimes it is less great. I keep thinking doing one of those Dracula style epistolary stories would be cool, with all the diary entries and letters and newspaper clippings.
“Witnesseses report a woman turning into a wolf. The relevent authorities have been informed.” etc Only much less shit than that sounds.

Oh, so he doesn’t just fight dirty; he pre-fights dirty!

Sure! After he seduced his opponent the night before the match and dropped a couple horse tranquilizers in their drink.

That’s pretty much it! His spirit just isn’t in it after he realises she’s totally loving it. It’s probably the only funny part in the story, but that chapter is a crossover between Predator and Clueless (and for parts of it, Mortal Kombat) so… 
Rules? I didn’t think that far ahead. I was just trying to get all the lurkers talking. Failed, mostly. Should have gone with something like “Of your OCs who haven’t fucked yet, who would be most likely to fuck each other.” or something Naruto related.
But with no prior knowlege of each other, genre free, no prep match up: of Gogedheh vs
Kizzy – Is limited by the mostly-human-like form she wears. The way I think of her is that a lot of the abilities she would have in her true form are denied to her, in a way they aren’t for lower orders like an Angel or Archangel. I’ve assumed her true six winged always-burning form cannot exist on Earth without damaging the planet extensively, like having a mini sun pressed against it.  Trained humans can and do beat Predators in fights in the films – Dutch the mercenary, Harrigan the cop, and her flaming soul sword would be a fair weapon against his wrist blades and armor – and could probably deflect plasma blasts too, but ultimately he’s simply more experienced at hand to hand combat than she is despite her age (Staff officers… always got their asses stapled to a desk...) and so he might have the edge.
Shannon – Would simply assume she can seduce him (perhaps feigning reluctance if she deduces he prefers rape), get naked, entice him to fuck her and then eat his life during the act, leaving him a dried out husk. Quickest, easiest victory. She might even get off.
Lupa – She’s a bit like the vampire Cassidy from the old Preacher comics – she has the strength and the speed, but despite Kizzy making her and Kate undergo combat training she’s probably liable to get her head taken off, which would work as well as the old stake through the heart (as Buffy once said, “You’d be surprised how many things that’ll kill”). If she did get past his guard enough to drink a load of alien blood she could withstand a lot of stabbings and a hole knocked through her with the plasma caster to take him. The mersmerism would work if she could get the mask off him and then he’d be wondering why he was lying down and baring his neck. “Hey! Tastes like guacamole!”.
Kate – Is the kind of ferocious beast critter that Predators hunt anyway. Probably the weakest against him for all her own strength and speed and some training. I mean, this guy can take down Xenomorphs and the like, and in a lot of ways Kate’s just a metalhead with a party trick and the munchies. Still, if Danny Glover can take a Predator it could be evenly matched on the day if she was desperately ferocious enough. She’s fast enough to dodge fire at least, and she can take a bit of punishment from the wrist blades too, maybe enough to get him bleeding out before she did.
So overall except for Shannon (who once again would solve a problem by fucking it), I would really see it depending on how things went during the bouts if there was no pre-prep.
I pretty much just made the 1D version of Luzurial. You’ve made the 3D version! No, absolutely genre is key. Every rape fic ever written about superheroines shows that. Including the abomination that was DC’s Identity Crisis.
Unless it is a Chick Tract universe where at the very last second he accepts Jesus Christ as his Lord and Saviour, says sorry, and goes to Heaven while the kind hearted Roman Catholic who killed him to save humanity is thrown in the lake of fire for being the Wrong Sort.
I don’t know that he’d hate Hell anyway – they’d probably have him taking seminars.  “Agile Working, Degredation and You.”
...yeah, my money’s on the god dude to win those scraps. I mean, it’s not the fairest of fights unless your name is Surtur or something.
Heh, Blackbird, so he’s the kind who kicks the balls and pokes the eyes and gets the three count after the ref bump.

In my fics, I think the obvious choice is Loja, but that’s because he’s a god and can just rip anyones soul out of their body and stick it in a cockroach. But if we’re talking like human OCs, I think I’d put my money on Blackbird. He’s not the strongest, not the most skilled, but he’s a survivor, and he will fight fucking dirty.
