LAURZY! Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 oooo this is different, pretty intrigued Great start, Cant wait to see whats gonna happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slade Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 I’m a bit surprised you decided to go down this route Red Ranger. The impression you gave with your posts was that you’d had enough of Aden/Belle/Adelle etc. It will be interesting to see how he copes with life behind bars and how his imprisonment will affect people such as Nicole and Belle. What also intrigues me is if your frustration with the character is reflected in the storyline or whether you try to approach it from a more balanced viewpoint and simply portray him as you felt an impartial writer should have done.

Red Ranger 1 Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 ^^Well, that's the million dollar question, old friend.I like to think I try my best to be impartial but a fiction is always coloured by the author's perception of characters and events.My main reason for writing the story was because, as I've mentioned elsewhere, I felt the writers didn't deal with the consequences of what they'd set up properly so I thought I'd show an alternative way of dealing with it. One of my rules has always been to stay true to the characters as established in the show and I hope everyone will feel, by the end of this, that I've portrayed Aden and others in a way that is fair and accurate.(It's also interesting that I find certain characters a lot less irritating in my stories than I do in the show.Probably because they're doing what I tell them but I do find poking around in their heads and rearranging things quite therapeutic.) Hope that didn't sound too pretentious.And I've started calling people old friend, as if I'm Optimus Prime or something.Hopefully the next update will be along shortly.

karter Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 I loved the line, "I wouldn't have told me either." It seemed a perfect answer to Nicole's non-reaction in the show. Well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slade Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Optimus Prime??? Megatron was far better and besides he crushed Prime with his bare hands. I haven’t been posting on Back To The Bay for very long and when I started coming here, I only looked at the UK Discussion Thread. I thought your posts did stand out because they were quite informative and more importantly impartial. Where a lot of people (myself included) would express emotion in regards to certain characters you would generally tend to stick to summarizing the episode and perhaps give a balanced view of certain events. I thought they were so unbiased, at first I couldn’t tell which characters you liked and which ones you didn’t. And I had thought you had been impartial up until the last few weeks when I noticed you complain (more than once) about certain characters *cough* *cough*. Then to my surprise I saw the deprecation thread with your name as the starter. What was even more surprising was reading what you had to say. Don’t get me wrong because everyone is entitled to dislike whoever they wish as the characters are ficticous but because you had been so impartial previously, I didn’t think it was possible for you to dislike a particular character so much. Anyway, each to his own. In regards to the actual storyline what will also be interesting to see what the hardcore Aden/Belle/Adelle fans think of this. This will probably give some indication of how well the characters have been portrayed, although I hope there isn’t too much disappointment if the ending doesn't go according to how they'd hoped.

Taniya_K Posted November 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Aden's already made an enemy! I love how you write the characters; they are so true to the ones on screen. I actually can't tell the difference. Look forward to reading more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
