Go for the light-side mini-arc before going back to dark. It might help wind down from the tension that you gave us with the ORDER Arc.

There was tension?

Seriously, there was tension in that arc.?

I really wasn't able to gather if the ORDER arc. was a success or not. I need a ranking system for my damn arcs.

ANYWAYS, it's still gonna have the Dark-side presence in it, but it's gonna center more around Kuroko, Uiharu, and Saten this time around. Hell, I may even have Motoharu join Touma in the escipades of it since, lets face it, Touma needs to have at least some testosterone around him during a few of these events.

Yes, there was tension. You dragged on the suspense with the long fights and kept it peaked with the climax. Damnit, whenever I think about those fights, it still feels like I'm on the edge of my seat...

And you need a ranking system for your Arcs?

Meh, I got mixed feedback on that portion. I'm still not sure if anyone really understood the key factors about that arc; such as the information that they had and other hints I left behind in it.

My guess is that people didn't want to guess or just understood thus didn't feel inclined to mention it to me in their reviews. Still, I'm glad ORDER was a success...unlike a certain group in Railgun S.............I don't think further elaboration is necessary.

Half-joking with that statement. But if I was to do that, the criteria would be as follows.

Predictability: Critical especially for an Index fic.

Characters: From cannon to OC's; the latter of which I'd like to know if they were compelling enough to not bore people to tears when they read scenes that focused around them.

Introduction to Climax: There will be ups and downs here, so it would be a matter of if there were more ups than downs or vise versa.

Development: Mostly focused on cannon characters, particularly Touma and his rate of adaption to the Darkness of AC.

Overall Plot of Arc: Cliche or creative and yet another critical field that I'd be curious to know for the sake of thinking outside the box. This one follows the same method I would rank Introduction to Climax.

Those are all I have at the moment; though making an actual 'Arc Ranking System' is not at the top of my priority list. It could be useful, but I don't think its worth the time investment.

Ah... My mind is sometimes too engrossed in writing to think about even making a ranking system.

In all honesty, whenever I finish writing out a chapter, I barely feel like I can put in an Author's Note...

On that note, it seems like Chapter 12 of To Ascend seems to almost be hitting 10k in my Word Document.

How!? I just kept writing and writing and writing!

I didn't notice how long the chapter was until it got around to 8.6k!

Seriously, what the hell is wrong with me!?

I was only planning 5-6k words for Chapter 12......

Sometimes it just happens, though my usual quota rounds out to about 9k words.

Still though, you should already know by now that not everything always goes as planned. So long are you are happy with the results, then it's not necessarily a bad thing.

Yes, I know, but still!

Literally three months ago, I could barely squeeze out about 1k (which was eventually edited into Chapter One of To Ascend) and feel completely drained afterwards.

A few days after that, I made the Catgirl!Kanzaki snippet and it was around double the length of my previous snip.

Then when I've been writing out chapters for To Ascend on a rough weekly basis, it escalated from around 3k to 5-6k.

And now this?

It's just... Gah.

Screw it, I'm going to sleep. See you all later...

ORDER is a pretty good organization really. They had some really cool abilities and the way you showed them was really nice in execution. I suppose the only thing that felt lacking was the lack of Kamachiesque twist. Not saying that you need to write something that screwy but the plot felt a bit straight forward. But in a way that was refreshing in itself. The other content was good in the way I could actually imagine them being in canon as per their depiction.

I already took the not too dark, not too nice evil route. Saves people conditionally, punishes without limits. Does not believe in any logic too far away from his own, etc. So more misguided than evil. But He'd still be pretty messed up considering the type of AIM and thoughts being poured into him.

So I've been working on a mostly fluffy Touma/Misaka 10032 fic called Finding Something Close to Perfect on fanfiction.net that uses the old framing device known as looking back at key moment in there relationship so I get away with pushing the timeline forwards

Only got one chapter left, which should be finished by this time next week easy.

I enjoyed the ORDER arc. Certain fights did feel like they dragged on such as Frenda vs Chouka but it was still enjoyable. The only real thing that I could stay bugged me was how Kurou acts towards his teammates. In one chapter he got angry when the twins were killed and slaughtered the people responsible. Not too long after that he doesn't care what happens to his teammates. It seemed sorta inconsistent with his character.

Random question, but does anyone know any names that could plausibly work as Accelerators real name?

An idea of mine is kind of like a cops and robbers thing right out of a shoujo manga.

Kuroko is a upright if not obssessively hot blooded law enforcer, Awaki is on the run from both criminals and cops. What links these two together? The ability to teleport. Within the confines of academy city, only Kuroko's teleport is able to catch up with the wayward Awaki's Move Point. but Awaki's ploy to throw off the straight-laced police turns into a genuine interest.

This version of Kuroko and Awaki have their limits removed. Per se Kuroko can perform her calculations despite the pain, Awaki no longer has problems teleporting herself.

Pretty interesting idea really, i'd read it, though i'm pretty sure Peak Awaki just stomps all over Kuroko effortlessly.

Yes, they have. Othinus apparently has an army of them, but I think the only one that has been displayed so far is Bersi/Kihara Kagun.

There's not really much information, truth be told.
