Website Migration Update
I moved the website to a new host, which I think will be more tolerant of the content this website hosts. Nevertheless, I do want to take a moment to remind everyone that the stories and content posted here MUST follow website rules, as it it not only my policy, but it is the policy of the hosts that permit our website to run on their servers. We WILL continue to enforce the rules, especially critical rules that, if broken, put this sites livelihood in jeapordy.

I fully understand the conundrum that you described right at the beginning of this. It often happens to me i start a story sometimes, full of enthusiasm, but although i usually do end it, i've 'run out of steam' towards said end. which of course isn't possibly as good as i'd hoped for.
Having said that, what i can also say is that i DID enjoy reading just what you've come up with here. It's bloody good! So, chin up, and keep going.

I perfectly understand your feelings. Especially:
Not trying to hijack this into being about myself, as that is not really the point (not like my presence or contributions here matter that much in the grand scheme of things), but I have multiple unfinished drafts languishing on my hard drive for at least partly this reason. And I suspect I am not the only one. Comments (and the lack of them) are a dead horse around here, but I really do think the low amount of them has a chilling effect on the amount of content that is produced for the site.
I know this is probably faint praise from me, given that I have already said similar in the past, but I do think you are an amazing writer, and it always surprises me that people almost never bother to comment.

But enough about unhappy topics...

I really liked the mix of almost steampunk plus surrealist aesthetic of the train. Mysterious and evocative.
Quite the mistake for Bethany to make - and surprisingly honorable of Lucille to accept the deal and actually let the others go.
Overall, quite the expansive tale you seem to be starting. Curious to see where it goes, although it is certainly off to a strong start!
When it feels like nobody cares anyways, or wants to actually engage with the substance of what is written, why even bother putting in the effort to write something out, when as you said, you can just enjoy the idea in your own head.RopeBunny wrote: 8 months ago And the story is in my head, I can play it out for myself, enjoy it for myself without writing it down.

Definitely remember that line from previous iterations of Lucille!

Perhaps. The desire to share is the core motivation for writing anything, at the end of the day. Of course sharing with nobody is... well pointless.RopeBunny wrote: 8 months ago Worth finishing one sometime? When able, posting it for others to see.

On a related note, makes me think of how apathy is far worse then even negativity - you can sometimes glean something useful from the latter, the former is just demotivating.
Yes, there are quite a few repeating motifs/styles of character in your writing. Nothing wrong with/strange about that - both writing about what you like, or having a specific style.RopeBunny wrote: 8 months ago I like trains, a strange- is it -interest of mine, discovered through others.

And I definitely remember trains - specifically similar older style trains - being mentioned in at least one of your previous stories!

Personally I prefer single chapters, but I doubt it matters either way in the grand scheme of things. So no 'binding'RopeBunny wrote: 8 months ago Sort ofbreaking my own promise, or decision.
I had meant to post large blocks at once. An interlude- a River based chapter, train stuff -alongside the newest story. But.
Surely I'm not bound![]()
by my word?

Ah yes, the important questions when there is a breach alarmRopeBunny wrote: 8 months ago How many other cameras are there on board?
In my bedroom?
And who has access?

An amusing little interlude with how Melantha inadvertently teases River, quite literally walking in and out of her (train) life

A cameo of sorts - wonder if she will show up again as you hinted at in the preamble. Doubt we will ever find out exactly why she decided to show up bound

To which I'd agree, both for posting and for reading. But, and however. I made my observations clear at the start of all this.BlissfulMisery wrote: 8 months agoPersonally I prefer single chapters,RopeBunny wrote: 8 months ago Sort ofbreaking my own promise, or decision.

As for the cameo, the chapter as a whole.
Yet another example of changing my mind mid flow to be honest. I planned to write Melantha in as River's new second, she'd basically volunteer herself for it.
Offering to hang around, help.
But then I had a better- coming soon -idea. And so a half finished chapter I was unwilling to junk, a TUG I liked, and to be fair Melantha wandering into and then out of a moving train, offering no explanations.
It is mostly how I try to write her general personality

Indeed, a perfect fit to her character!RopeBunny wrote: 7 months ago It is mostly how I try to write her general personalitywhich is to say someone not always operating on the same plane or levels as the rest of us.
Nice referenceRopeBunny wrote: 7 months ago Black inked flames on her left forearm, and a busty anime girl, bikini clad long hair flowing, one hand holding a cowboy hat to her head, sitting astride an oversized and stylised atom bomb on her left thigh.

Interesting how both Ush and River were surprised by each others abilities. Although I suspect this can be explained by River having a guardian angel of sorts, someone/some force helping her out without her knowledge.
And an amusing contrast of titles between Ush and River

The age old technique of name dropping things to assist in world building. Wonder if these things will remain merely window dressing or be expanded on (certainly could go either way). Or perhaps references to prior tales I am unfamiliar with?
And another, entirely different reference snuck in!
Ahh yes of course, the *proper* method of meeting a fellow bondage enthusiast powerful entityRopeBunny wrote: 7 months ago But if, when we are called upon to meet. Formally, there's a way these things are done.
...Naked...
...collars...

Small typo there. Although makes me think about what a hypothetical 'Dark Good' would actually be like!
(Same typo happens again later right at the end)
Quite the trick on Ush's part too. I had thought the detail about the sand being blown in was a strange one to include, but figured it was intended more as a 'oh look, more annoying work for me to do' thought from River - characterization rather then a plot setup. Obviously I was wrong! Though I suppose I should have seen it more clearly, given that Ush outright stated she had a plan in mind, and implied it was an antagonistic one.
And again more push and pull between Ush and River with the latter asserting herself as much as she is able to. A rivalry in the making? Or a planted seed of respect? With the sexual tension between them, really could go either way. And nicely dovetails with similar dual aspects of bondage. A nicely written character dynamic.
Not the first story you have teased that particular bit in. Not surprising to see it crop up again, an unresolved thought as it were.
A really fun tale to read so far, especially now things seem to be getting afoot. Eager to see more!
