ReBoot fanfic
May. 8th, 2004 12:13 amA few fanfic recommendations today. I had a look on Fanfiction.net (often not-so-fondly referred to as the "Pit of Voles" on the LJ communities I usually read) today, and imagine my surprise when I actually managed to find a fic that was based on one of the ideas I was looking for some time ago.
(The entry where I discussed these fanfics ideas is here.)
I managed to find someone who'd written a ReBoot fic set after the end of Season 4. Granted, there are a few misspellings (there's consistent use of "your" for "you're", and occasional "to" for "too"), and the punctuation's a bit ropey, but the dialogue is excellent. For ReBoot, at least. It manages that rare state where I can read it and imagine the characters speaking those lines.
On reflection, it does somewhat dodge the question of why Megabyte was even trying to get onto the Net when it was made clear at the end of the series that he wanted nothing more than revenge... but that's not all that relevant after the first chapter, and I found it to be a good read. And I usually can't read things if the spelling mistakes are obvious, so this is actually fairly good to avoid that. Check out Plan A.v.A. here, and the sequel (which I haven't read, but will soon - Plan A.v.A. is a cliffhanger just like the end of the series), The Separation.
And a bonus, for any of you who may have come across the OS-tan website before - Plan A.v.A. gave me the rather unnerving idea of writing an OS-tan/ReBoot fic of some sort. It may be that nothing comes of it, but the idea's still there.
