A Certain Collection of Events has been updated.
So many different one-shots have taken form in my head lately, but I don't have time to write them all...whereas I had the opposite problem just a few weeks ago. Curse you, karma. It's because I saw Heavy Object animated, isn't it? As for the idea of a doujin; finding someone who can draw it for you is hard. I'd suggest just pitching your idea out on sites where people who might be interested hang out. I just know that one day, I'm going to go to Japan and force my Dark May Project idea onto every artistically inclined otaku I find.

Again, though, that's assuming I throw caution to the wind and just write it. Like you though, I'm just waiting for some talented Otaku to come around and just start drawing stuff from Darkness Project. Epic Legion was very kind in making the cover art; so at least part of my dream was achieved. But until I see a legit Touma/Mugino fan-art; my dream remains incomplete.

He did a continuation? That's news for me! Time to explore the internet to find an archive site that has it. Could you help me out by pointing out the name of the author, please? Also, if you want to see more pics based on your work, you should advertise it on places other than here. I have long came to realize that this forum is mostly a place where lazy bums gather...

The author of that doujin was Chiyou Yoyuchi.
In regards to advertisement, well, I don't particularly know of a specific site that has loads of artistic people hanging out outside of DeviantArt. I could post my Darkness Project there; but I'm not sure it will stay there. Any suggestions as regarding where else I can post the story to get it some attention?

Is it sad that I'm wondering when me and MrQuestionMark are gonna get our own Tropes page on the TV Tropes site?
I can understand why I don't, as my story's just now getting to the part where everything's gonna get good. I can acknowledge that, but MrQuestionMark at least deserves his own trope page given how far along he's come with his story. Seriously, we're the two top reviewed stories in the Index section of FF.net. You'd think that would have amounted to something by now, given how much dedication we both have put into our respected works.

The thing is, I think ACUL0 kinda deserves it more so since his plot is more fleshed out than mine is at the moment. Getting Touma into ITEM was where the story really starts getting interesting for many reasons.
How will Touma react to the work which ITEM does? What will he do when he realizes ITEM is a group that murders people for no other reason than profit? Who will he save, and who will he fail to save? How he bond with those girls? What kind of relationship will he have with them? What impact will he have on them and others in the darkness before and after I get into cannon territory? And all that's just the tip of the iceberg. Everything leading up to where I am currently was just a stepping stone. Now that I'm here, the real story can begin and we'll get to see just how Touma takes all this...and how this effects his motivations later on. That's what I'm shooting for; I wanted that long term goal of 'saving a certain girl' to really mean something when it happens. When you see how much he'll struggle to cope with these things, it'll make the end reward all the sweeter. But that all takes time, and while I'd like to skip certain parts and jump straight into the next arc, I can't. I can't because it ruins the whole development process of him being in ITEM and makes everything feel rushed and half-assed. So, as I said before, ACUL0 deserves it more because its plot is more fleshed out; whereas mine is just about to begin.

I say you both deserve it since so far you guys have two of the best Index fanfics out there. You both are also trying your best to update regularly which shows you enjoy what your writing and care about your readers. I understand that getting a page on Tv tropes is a honor for fan fic writers so I hope you get that page but even if you don't I think I speak for most if not all the people on this thread when I say "I love your fic and await how you continue the story".

The praise is flattering and I appreciate it greatly. It does improve moral, that much I won't deny, and I'm glad everyone enjoys it. All I'm saying is that between the two MrQuestionMark should get first dibs since he started a ways before I did.
I'm not undermining my story or anything, nor am I gonna say 'mines better roar!' since I genuinely enjoy his work too. What I'm saying is that, if I was a Troper and I had to choose between the two in an unbiased fashion then I'd pick ACUL0 first before ACWOD for reasons which have already been expressed. I'm not sure MrQuestionMark cares much about it, but it bothers me to a certain degree. If it happens it happens, sooner or later someone's gonna eventually do it on their own volition. All I ask is that, if it does, it goes in a 'first come first served' manner. So long as that happens and I eventually get mine, then I'll be content.

Wonderful... Just wonderful, question will we see Dragon King helping Touma? And I don´t know why but I see a Tsundere Frenda, Kuudere Saia and Yandere/dere Mugino, I see takitsubou as the good sister or the weird cousin.
