Summer Anime Review and...some fanfiction news!

How did seven years pass by without me noticing I never posted "To Be By Your Side" over at Archive Of Our Own? (For that matter, how has it been seven years since I wrote that story? It doesn't feel that long ago!) I could have sworn I did, but apparently I didn't. So, I've rectified that oversight, for anybody who may be interested.

Speaking of fanfiction, I have some news that may make a few people happy... ,I've been writing again! Yeah, it's been over two and a half years since I finally finished "Melting Ice" and declared myself in semi-retirement, but I've really been missing fanfiction lately. Maybe I was just burned out when I decided to stop, or maybe this is just a fleeting burst of inspiration... I don't know. I do know that I'm about two-thirds finished with "Friends With Benefits", a sequel to "Blood On His Hands" that I started a little before I decided to quit, and that I'm contemplating between continuing with two Sailor Moon stories after I'm finished. If given a choice, which would you rather me write?

"Metamorphosis", a kinda-prequel-but-not-really to "To Be By Your Side" about how Helios became priest of Elysion in the first place.

or

"Stolen Dreams", a story about (a grown-up, obviously) Chibiusa being seduced by an incubus who wants revenge against Helios.

I'm leaning toward "Metamorphosis" at the moment, but I was further along in "Stolen Dreams" before the break, so it might be easier just to finish that one.

Anyway, I'M NOT PROMISING ANYTHING, but maybe you'll see some new stuff from me in a few months? (I've already decided I'm not going to start posting anything until a story is done. I reserve the right to quit again at any time.)

Now... Summer Anime Review time.

Eh, there's not much to review, though. The continuations of "Major 2nd" and "My Hero Academia" were great, the new season of "Free!" had way too many new characters but was still pretty fun to watch, and I'm watching the "Attack on Titan" dub on Toonami, so I've only watched a few episodes of the new season so far. Not really enough to have a real opinion yet. The only brand new show I watched this season was "Holmes of Kyoto", which I really enjoyed a lot. Don't let the title fool you. The main characters do solve mysteries, but most of them aren't very interesting and it's not really what the show is about. It's actually more of a romance, and I enjoyed the characters.

I haven't actually had a chance yet to decide on what I'll watch this upcoming season, so I'll let y'all know later.
