112 - When the Cat's Away

El Cid

on Sept. 21, 2016

Jetta shows her preachy anarcho insurrectionist side. I wasn't super happy with the dialogue I wrote here. Jetta seems a touch overly self-assured… though it remains to be seen whether she's making the right choice.

So who is this new mystery woman? Stay tuned to find out…


Time out! Wait. No, no, no no no NO! You don't get to add any more new characters, Cid! This thing's cluttered up enough already. I thought you said you were trimming the script DOWN; this looks like you're piling on even more! No more new characters, Cid!


How do you people keep getting into my Author's Notes? I can add new characters if I want to! Who are you, the plot police?


Yes, that's exactly who I am.


Oh. Well. Okay then.

No need to worry; nothing's changed. I'm still pruning characters and unnecessary bloat. This new character is part of the rewrite. I added in order to subtract… but it's still ultimately shaving off a lot of pages in the end. I'm not expanding the plot right now, I promise!


Okay, Cid. I'll allow it, but you're on thin ice.


Thank you.
