That was...different. It was one of those "blink and you miss it" kind of stories, and relied a bit too heavily on 'experiments'. Oh well. Drawings were kind of cute.
Does anyone know the name of the fanfic that was the continuation of sekhmetrisings Thieving Time story (Takes place after Thieving Time and borrows the original characters from that story - I have been trying to find it again and accidentally deleted the bookmark for it)
There's a continuation?! (Is it about Ryuutarou and Katashi?) I'm assuming it's written by someone else. Sekhmet has stopped writing fanfiction.
Please post if you find out the name of it. have you checked her page?
Yes, it was written by someone else - a kind of continuation of the story.
Will do!
OMG, thanks! I looked at her works, but could not for the life of me remember the title, and LJ is not that easy to search on!
But that's not a continuation, it's just a side story written 3 years ago....
There is no continuation of the story, no one picked it up after the original author stopped writing
Well, it is not truly a continuation, just someone playing with another author's universe to write a side story. I guess I should have been more explicit when I originally wrote this, but someone found the story for me, and that was my goal in the first place, so I am grateful for that. *winks* Besides, sekhmetrising has given blessings to those who wish to continue with the story, or to finish the stories she was not able to finish due to RL interfering.
@misekatte
In all honesty, I would prefer that Sekhmet's fics remain unfinished, no one would be able to give these stories the ending they deserve, she's one of a kind in the VF fandom. Besides, there have been authors that have picked up their stories again after years of hiatus. You never know. *shrugs*
I totally agree, I love her writing, although ptw30 did a pretty good job with the side story. But sekhmets fics are really awesome, and I hope that she returns to finish her works, as I would prefer that she finish them herself. She is my fave author in the VF fandom (there are a few others that rank just below her but sekhmets writing style is pretty unique)
Mhm, she's a very cool lady, I hope we see her return to the fandom.
That was rather vague, open ended and perhaps poorly translated? (something lost in translation??)
Was going to read this when I realized that is is basically a verbatim retelling of the TV series, which I loved, but don't really need to read as a manga. I should have read the summary more closely. Oh well, for those who have not seen the BBC series, I would recommend this - the story line is pretty great.
Rather a philosophical and dark manga, with some twisted emotions, but very interesting indeed.
More stuff being dragged from the future into the past, another WWII invention shows up 50 years too early. Oh well, we must suspend disbelief here despite the other historical evidence.
But I appreciate the hard work in updating this ... not being ungrateful, just smh over the historical inaccuracies (sucks to be a history nut sometimes)
I think it's going to be all okay because Ciel will beat them all, and so they won't make it into the history books.
well, blinded weaponery-cars exists before 1911, with "Motorgeschütz" and "Marienwagen", the last one is more similar to a Panzer........ but you´re right, "PAnzer " as trademark/model
was first built in 1936
This is true, but the treads and 'cannon' on this "Panzer" are all WWII equipment. The first armoured vehicle was more like a car on wheels with a guy standing in the top with a machine-type gun. (built around 1902-4) And you are correct about the the approximate year they used the word Panzer, but I thought it was a little later (1938-40-ish but that could be a faulty memory - I should look it up in my history books to be sure)
well this manga is dated aprox on the end of XIX century....... 20 years +-........if we think that they kept the tank on secret in the woods of a remote village in the middle of germany........it somekind fits....look at moustard gas....it was known in 1800 but wasnt used till 1917 as a weapon....
I strongly recommend you these 2 books to learn on tanks:
- "Encyclopedia of german tanks of World War Two”, Peter Chamberlain and Hilary Doyle. Arms & Armour, 1999.
-"Tanks of World War I and II" George Forty, Southwater,2006.
glad to hear from an History-otaku as well ;)
pd. I majored in History, sorry for the long post ;)
Actually the tank is older than WWII. They came in handy during WWI. I don't know the official date they came into production, but it wasn't WWII.
Sorry to burst your bubble but In Germany: The first Panzer tank was built in 1936/8 (two years before the star of WWII), the first armoured vehicle was built in 1902/4 and was little more than a car with high sides and a man with a machine gun sitting in the top section. The first armoured vehicle with big guns and treads (called a Light Tractor or Leichtraktor) was buitl in 1930. For a general description see wikipedia (not the best site for this but does have a fairly good brief summary without all the technical details: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_combat_vehicles_of_World_War_II ) The first tanks were not actually built until after WWI ended in 1918. There are dozens of site with similar information though.
I majored in History too! Got my Masters - mind you it was more Medieval than modern history, but I still had to cover all the bases LOL)
Sorry for the typos, a couple of my keyboard keys are sticking
Tanks are older, that is true. Failed military Prototypes were known since 1900
BUT,
PANZER TANKS were built in 1936 and used as a lethal weapon in WWII.
nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!^^
:3
Yeah, exceopt learning the 'old languages' was a pain in the butt! (need to upgrade my classical Latin for medieval Latin and needed Old English (weird language - I tell ya) and Medieval French. LOL :D
I have a PHD in Medieval English history - sorry - replied t the wrong post!
I studied The Crusades and History of Medicine - what did you study?
Cool, another history lover! Always nice to see people who study this stuff!
well I majored in Contemporary History, but I had to study a full 6 years of Latin so I know your pain xDD (I wasn´t decided between Medieval History and Contemporary History so I chose a bit of both, (yeah I´m a bit masoquist, I know) till I decided. Now I´m doing a Master on " The values and changes of the figures of power through XIX-XX- and its impact on society" ............interesting but heavy xDDDD
when I was trying to read a Theology book writen in Visigothic Minuscule I decided this werent truly my thing....almost gone blind you know......
Oi! Scary. I have a copy of the Anglo Saxon Chronicle - what a pain in the butt to read, not only the actual writing, but the inconsistencies in the actual language (because of poor re-copying) so I totally understand your pain.
This may sound like a silly question, but is this the continuation of Hakkenden? I am just about to start reading this, but wondered if anyone knows the answer ti this question.
The manga I mean, not the novel. (I know that Hakkenden was loosely based on the same novel)
Hahaahha i thought that this was hakkenden too!!!
Well the main character - Shino - has the same name, and so does his dog, plus it uses the same source material so it is an easy assumption to make. He he he.
Plus they both have blue hair
Said a few weeks ago that This was going to be a little S&M and kind of got blasted for it ... now there is actual proof. Nyah nyah...LOL
