Megajoule has posted what appears to be all extant parts of Faces of the City over on the Virtue Wiki.
For those who don't know about this, it's a story about the genius loci -- the living spirits --of the various neighborhoods of Paragon City; it follows the Spirit of Kings Row around as he/it pursues... well, why not just see?

The Jason eyed me warily from one of the overhead displays as I slammed my Material Defender through a wicked spiralling turn into the depths of the mine.
"So, let me get this straight."
I grunted acknowledgement, fragging a hapless drone.
"You've had a batch of crystal 'wavium brewing for six months."
"Yup" I responded, as I dodged some sort of crackling plasma ball.
"You Quickened an AI in it, and left the poor thing recoding for another two months."
"Ayup." And the ball-launcher, a wall-clinging turret, fell to my missles.
"All so you could play Descent in higher resolution with better graphics."
"Yeap." I cursed briefly as the ball-launcher's brother fragged _me_, then looked up at The Jason in the screen. "It was worth it, too. Works great multiplayer."
The Jason shook his head, and I grinned as I pushed the file over the link and closed the connection. Best to give the poor guy a few days to get up to speed, after all. Wire Geek - Burning the weak and trampling the dead since 1979Wire Geek - Burning the weak and trampling the dead since 1979

Always good to see those numbers going up.
but 115k equals how many completed scenes out of how many planned scenes for chapter 5?"I was an Otaku before those kids came along and changed the meaning of the word."

  [META] "Real-world" Fandoms
Posted by: Foxboy - 07-06-2007, 02:06 AM - Forum: Fenspace - Replies (7)

We've had a few TV shows of non-genre stripe prove to have actually happened in Fenspace. Can we assume that things like having CSI: Miami and The Avengers be "real" don't break the setting like having a REAL Haruhi would?
Primary differences I would include would be the real versions of these characters not resembling their TV counterparts.
Also, what shows qualify for the reality treatment? Not just having Fen take up the mantles, but having the series as presented or toned down slightly as actual occurences?
Shows I'm sure would make the cut:
Dragnet
One Adam Twelve
Emergency!
CHiPs
Hill Street Blues
most "Cop Shows" of a realistic bent
Shows that DEFINITELY fall in range of the Fen (thus HAVE to be originally fictitious):
Dukes of Hazzard
TJ Hooker
The A-Team
Police Squad!
Cop Rock
Starsky and Hutch
Walker Texas Ranger [Too many Chuck Norris memes to let Walker have actually existed]
Nash Bridges
