Read ?a here. Read ?b here. Read ?g here. TO: Lockwood FROM: LS FILE UNDER: Stain’d-by-the-Sea, accounts of; impossible murder, investigations of; Hangfire; secret doors; myths; coffee grounds; et cetera ?a/4 cc: VFDhq#o# "What Are You Doing Here?" Before you browse the pages of “What Are You Doing Here?” ask yourself these questions:1. Are you worried about all these strange murders in town? Who isn’t? 2. Is there someone who can enter and leave a room without unlocking the door? What about some thing? 3. How much do you know about this town’s history? And its legends? 4. Aren’t you too old to believe in monsters? -~<

What, a new story in ATWQ which we didn't know about?
Oh, wait, no, this is FF. A new fanfic by Dante.
But this is definitely something to look forward to. I eagerly await the first episode.

Wait, isn't this a milestone or something? Surely Dante hasn't written fan fiction in years?

Wrong question, Bandit. The correct question would be "Dante surely hasn't written fan fiction in two years at most?" He wrote the first chapter of the Collaborative Calamity; at least that's the last fan fic I remember him writing.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to this, Dante. I wanted to write some ATWQ fan fic myself, similar to a mystery out of "Suspicious Incidents", which I still want to do. This looks more like your version of the future ?4. I'm interested to see where it goes.

Wait, isn't this a milestone or something? Surely Dante hasn't written fan fiction in years? I never stopped. I just don't post very much of it. This one is actually fit for public consumption. Anyway, I'm looking forward to this, Dante. I wanted to write some ATWQ fan fic myself, similar to a mystery out of "Suspicious Incidents", which I still want to do. This looks more like your version of the future ?4. I'm interested to see where it goes. To get technical, this is a speculative interstitial story set between ?2 and ?3. This is a bit difficult when we haven't read ?3 yet, but I didn't want to wait years to write anything like this. I'm anticipating future events to two ends: One is in the hope that the fic won't be too badly retconned come September; the second is to outright call future canon plot elements. If I fail at the one, I hope to succeed at the other. Incidentally, I'm aware that we're skipping arson and going straight to murder here, but Colonel Colophon was murdered already, so I think it's forgiveable.

Dante, I've thought that you were not a person who would make a fanfic.

Dante has written many fanfics, Tryina. As Terry says, he wrote the first episode of The Collaborative Calamity; he also wrote The Arcane Academy and, er, a story about tea whose title I forget. And many earlier works, which are collected in one thread. You should definitely check them out.

Is that a crossover?

It is indeed. How did you guess?

It is indeed. How did you guess? I looked from the title. ASoUE has no magic. I assume the crossover is between Harry Potter and ASoUE?

'Arcane' doesn't have to mean magical; it can just mean secret or mysterious. But yes, it's with Harry Potter.
