An Update

TL;DR Newly posted fics, sorry I forgot to say anything here. I have reasons.

Mayonaka no Rendezvous, new Azureshipping fic (potential to become multi-chapter) - FFnet & AO3

Anzu's been having nightmares for weeks now; what if things had gone differently in the duel between Jounouchi and Yuugi, and she *had* been crushed? What if Kaiba hadn't saved her? Berating herself for thanking Mokuba and not Seto, one night at midnight, Anzu gets up and walks... finding herself at Seto Kaiba's mansion. (Originally written for Azure Week 2018/First Person POV)

The Speed of You, new(ly posted to FFnet) Initial D x Yu-Gi-Oh! eventual Azureshipping fic - FFnet & AO3

If you want to catch something that always seems out of reach, you need to be faster. The problem is, the more Anzu tries to escape the weirdness that is Domino, the more it seems to catch up with her.

Being on so many social media networks is a pain, especially when some of them *cough cough* TUMBLR *cough* DO STUPID SHIT and everyone abandons them for a while. But not long enough to put them out of business or anything. And hey, maybe they promised to change or some such. I don’t honestly know if that’s happened with Tumblr, but occasionally I do get notifications about stuff here.

SO, if you want to know if I’ve updated/added a new fic, please check fanfiction.net or archiveofourown.org first. Those are the primary places I post. I have a Wattpad account, but I have never used it. Someone else grabbed the name “Azurite” there and I’m salty about it.

I do not bother posting fic on DeviantART anymore, frankly because it was never a platform for the written word and I don’t think it’s trying to be. I will leave the fics I have posted there, because why the heck shouldn’t I (unless I massively revise them and/or there are no comments)?

If I remember to announce a new chapter, I will post about it here, but... yeah, as you can tell, I’m more of a reblogger here than an original content poster. So don’t count on Tumblr notifs for my stuff. Sorry.

I do have a website exclusively for What Doesn’t Kill You, where I intend on posting everything related to the fic, from chapters to fanart to the music that inspires me.

As far as my other fics, my goal is to regularly update my Fanfiction Status page on my site so that it shows where the most recent updates have been posted. As I recently discovered, I had posted some fics to one archive, but not to another, and while there often is crossover between audiences, I know that’s not always the case.

If I do prioritize an archive, it’ll be Archive of Our Own.

I did formerly run an eFiction-powered Azureshipping archive, Dragonfayth, but the software powering it became abandonware, and the people who supposedly took over for it haven’t posted updates in many months, and don’t seem interested in having a Patreon to financially support their efforts. I’ve heard rumor of WordPress-powered archives using a plugin, but I have yet to see said plugin in action or regularly updated for public consumption. If someone knows about WP Fanfic Sites or Plugins, LET ME KNOW.

WikiFic is dead, long live WikiFic. I hate MediaWiki with the fire of a thousand suns, and so WikiFic is officially dead. I attempted to upgrade the software numerous times and always ran into walls. I may have succeeded with the most recent update, but last I checked, the site infinitely redirects when you try to go to it. I really don’t know how to solve it, and frankly it would be easier for me to migrate the content that ISN’T replicated elsewhere (e.g., a TCG card database) to Darkness Rising, my Yu-Gi-Oh fansite.
