The Dead Dove Locker -- "I don't know what I expected."
The Dead Dove Locker -- "I don't know what I expected."
#1
May God forgive me. May history judge me charitably.

(06-28-2023, 09:29 PM)Once upon a time when pigs were swine, Your Humble Narrator and like droogiwoog Wrote: (I've sometimes thought of launching a thread just for fics that a forum member wants to recommend but recognizes might not be to literally anyone else's taste: a Dead Dove Locker, so to speak.)

And now, I have an excuse a reason to launch such a thread, as one such series that I follow has updated.

ErikModi Wrote:As a young girl, Sarza Zarazell was shipwrecked on an abandoned planet, only an old holocron to guide her. Now an adult, Sarza is on the cusp of completing her training as a Nue Jedi Knight.

Inspired by Haara Brightwater's D&D fanfic "Vow of Nudity." Using Fantasy Flight Games' Star Wars RPG rules.

That's the summary for Escape from the Lost World, the first part of his series The Naked Jedi (which I discovered via TheSunGodNika, creator of Bare Squadron's Pyso family, linking it from his Discord).

https://archiveofourown.org/works/48416170

That's complete at five parts, and the five-part sequel, A Galaxy Exposed, launched today, as Sarza, her escape accomplished, "learns about the state of the galaxy and the Jedi Order" from a fellow Force-sensitive on the first ship she encounters.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/49439338

The main series page, which is what I actually subscribed, is here: https://archiveofourown.org/series/3603481

Note: the Nue Jedi follow the "Passion, yet serenity" version of the Jedi Code, and that passion is shown in detail. Tags common to both extant stories are "Rape/Non-Con, Original Characters, LitRPG, Public Nudity, Nudism, The Force, Inappropriate Use of the Force, [...] A Girl and her Droid, Embedded Images, NSFW Art". So far, that first tag has been thankfully limited (a Force-trial entity that briefly overcame Sarza, but from which she was able to reclaim control), and the others have been within my acceptable limits, but there's a reason one labels the bag "Dead Dove: Do Not Eat" before one puts it in the fridge.

Nue happens to be French for "nude", so it's a sort of pune (sic) or play on words.

We start with something old (it's been around for quite a while, and it's been a smaller while since it updated): Anna's Adventures.

ChocolateCookieCream Wrote:Anna is starting a new year at Disney Highschool without her older sister, Elsa, by her side. What follows is an adventure filled with smut, sin and shenanigans. G!P Anna/Harem with multiple female Disney (and potential other studios) characters. Femslash. Very M-rated. Modern Highschool AU.

(If "G!P Anna" didn't kill the dove, the spoiler bit probably will. )

https://archiveofourown.org/works/11246619

Then, the reason I'm doing this, something new -- an update to A Galaxy Exposed, above, as the "Attempted Rape/Non-Con" tag goes live:

https://archiveofourown.org/works/494393.../125218144

(Both have something borrowed, by the nature of fanfic, and both are working bright blue, thus completing the Holy Something Four.)

Two different Star Wars/nudism fics today! First, A Galaxy Exposed updates, as Sarza meets some of Kael Skywalker's colleagues:

https://archiveofourown.org/works/494393.../125658493

Then, a side-story to Bare Squadron's prime universe begins, exposing the story of Phara Pyso's opposite number, and how she started down the path toward her own Rebirth of the Sith.

Travolore Wrote:Embros Zirzae has lived all her life as the Heir of House Zirzae, a powerful member of the Crimson Council rulers of the Sekki System. Her idyllic life of playing with her sister and training with her father is interrupted when strange Outsiders calling themselves Imperial arrived, claiming that the Pureblood Sith are extinct in the wider galaxy. As her the (sic) Crimson Council negotiates with them Embros wonders what they could possibly want with her...

https://www.deviantart.com/travolore/art...-979498462

Trav also Wrote:So while I do get roasted from time to time for how long the Mustafar Arc of Bare Squadron got, there were reasons for it. I wanted to set up a few potential antagonists for Bare Squadron that weren't Darth Vader, he who cannot be defeated by anyone next to Luke Skywalker. One of my favourite characters, for a long time, has been Embros Zirzae.

I always liked the concept of Sith Purebloods and wanted to introduce them into the modern setting. Obviously they were thought to die out millennia ago but I figured in an effort to preserve their people, the old Dark Council would have established a hidden colony out in Wild Space. It's on the Sekii System, which I have some lore for, that Embros was born.

This story will run concurrent to Bare Squadron as Embros, inspired by Phara Pyso's brazen example, seeks to carve out her own place in the galaxy and restore the Sith. I have it all plotted out and unlike Bare Squadron it will be a short mini-series. I'll be switching between the two as I go.

(Future BSq updates will be posted here, except someone specifically pipe up in favor of their return to the main update thread.)

More A Galaxy Exposed (Star Wars/public nudity).

ErikModi Wrote:My point here is less that the old Jedi were horrible, and more that they made mistakes, and the new Jedi are trying to learn from those mistakes and be better, the central theme of The Last Jedi. Try, make a mistake, fail, fall, get hurt. . . but then get back up and learn not to repeat the mistake. The difference between Legends Luke and New Canon Luke is that Legends Luke didn't learn enough about the old Order (because for most of Legends, the Prequels didn't exist yet) to emulate them and their mistakes until he'd already inadvertently set up his new Order to avoid most of the mistakes of the old (he went on to make bold new mistakes, but that's neither here nor there). In the new canon, Luke tried to emulate the old Order too much, resulting in him repeating their mistakes instead of avoiding them.

This is a Jedi Order with one eye firmly fixed on its history, because it refuses to let that history repeat.

Whether or not they're making their own bold new mistakes. . . well, that remains to be seen.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/494393.../126092023

Plus, two instances of futanari-related program activities from a certain Kylia, presumably not to be confused with Princess Kyi-La of the Galactic Federation, whom I discovered in the G!P tag. I'll keep the details where you have to make a choice to view them.

As always, the Mgt. apologizes for any convenience this may cause.

A Galaxy Exposed (SW/public nudity) concludes.

ErikModi Wrote:I wanted to introduce a few of the Council members in more detail, and have them evaluate Sarza and how she'd fit with the new Jedi Order. As well as lay some groundwork for how things are in the New Empire. Some of it is foreshadowing for the overall metaplot.

I've always just really liked the idea of clones, the storytelling possibilities they offer. I even liked the 90s Spider-Man Clone Saga (for the most part). So I'm giving the Jedi a Clone Army partly to indulge that, partly as their own military force to defend themselves should worse come to worst. Are there some moral quandaries with raising essentially slave soldiers to serve you? Absolutely. Will I be addressing those? That's the plan.

Due to circumstances beyond my control, The Naked Jedi (SW/public nudity) continues with Return To The Lost World.

ErikModi Wrote:Sarza returns to the deserted planet with Jedi Council Member Aayla Secura (no relation) to show off Master Haara's holocron, and the ways of the Nue Jedi.

For once, it's nothing bizarre, nothing grotesque. Just the only fanfic on AO3 for Federico García Lorca's drama about woman in the villages of Spain, La casa de Bernarda Alba (The House of Bernarda Alba).

heresy_in_fair Wrote:Bernarda Alba's daughters live in a house that is more prison than home.

The man three of them yearn for, Pepe el Romano, will kill them, but they do not know this.

If you don't know the play, el alba nunca vendrá (the dawn will never arrive) might have its impact blunted, but if you do know Bernarda and her daughters, that knowledge will (to borrow from Blood Wedding, the English version of García Lorca's Bodas de sangre) light up the waistcoat and open the buttons.

New Return to the Lost World (SW LitERPG).

https://archiveofourown.org/works/502511.../127358644

ErikModi Wrote:I also felt I had to address an issue head-on. Because this is an adult story, Sarza will find herself in all kinds of sexual situations, some non-consensual. But even though I want to occasionally have her be assaulted because she's walking around naked, I want to make it clear that "she's asking for it" is not a reason. So, I had Aayla advance the idea, and Sarza refute it. It is not her fault how people react to seeing her naked, she should not expect to be accosted because she chooses to go nude. She should expect to be accosted because she's in the hands of a malicious writer, there's a difference.

And, talking of malicious writers,

Time once again for a Return To The Lost World (SW/nudity) update. This time, we learn more of Master Haara's backstory (including where her pre-holocron life fits into the timeline), and Aayla advances a brutal but eminently reasonable theory on what may have happened to the original Nue Jedi.

ErikModi Wrote:"It was close enough to the Clone Wars most of the pieces were in place, or nearly so. Palpatine would have kept tabs on you as best he could, the last thing he could afford is a Jedi offshoot set up in secret, primed to undermine him as he was about to undermine the Jedi and Republic."

Haara looked sad. "You believe he tracked us here and destroyed us. Him, or his agents."

"Honestly, I'd be surprised if he didn't ."

As most things must, The Naked Jedi: Return To The Lost World (SW/nudity) comes to an end.

ErikModi Wrote:So, I never really thought about giving Sarza a padawan during all this, but then talking some things over reminded me how important a relationship that is and convinced me I shouldn't just drop it. So I got to thinking about what the opposite of Sarza might be, a complimentary contrast, and landed on
This not only gives me an avenue to explore what I think the Vong might turn into a thousand years down the road, but some other interesting new story opportunities, some of which you'll be seeing in the next story.

Speaking of, there's been a few hiccups in getting the next story finished, so there may be a gap in updates. But be on the lookout for Sarza's fourth adventure, her first with Meelan Lah in tow, "Mystery of a Reclaimed Planet."

Man, some times you just run head first into writer's block. I gotta tell you, it's not fun but I'm pushing through it. This chapter has been in development for a while but thanks to some words of wisdom from BlakeSkies I got over the hump and am back.

I hope you all enjoy this chapter and welcome feedback in the comments down below. After the Sylvawen Arc, I plan to change how I structure Bare Squadron from here on out. I want to start juggling less characters and focusing more on fun stories. It's just ideas right now so if you have any to share let me know.

Scientists are still figuring out what's wrong with me, but in the meantime, I inflict on give you Made in the Milling: The Sadie Miller Story, the Achewood/Steven Universe crossover we never knew we needed and probably still don't.

KriegsaffeNo9 Wrote:You know that thing where a dying guy passes on his MacGuffin and things get really complicated? Sadie Miller just had that trope waltz into her life. She's got a ticket to the Great Outdoor Fight--three days, three acres, three thousand men, all vying to see who is the best fighter. Can she even dream of making it to the Acres, much less survive, much less win? Only one way to find out--and all of Beach City is getting in on the game.

Debatably* a feel-good story about personal achievement through ass-kicking. Definitely extremely profane and bloody. Technically an AU splitting off from when Peridot was in her "toilet goblin" phase. Crack fic? At points, literally.

*Somehow autocorrected to "detestably" even though this was posted from a computer. How..?

Either I need to keep a closer eye on my AO3 notifications, or something slipped, because I don't recall getting word that The Naked Jedi: Mystery Of A Reclaimed Planet had posted its first chapter, but the second went up today.

The Naked Jedi: Mystery of a Reclaimed Planet (SW/gratuitous nudity) continues, as Sarza and Meelan Lah set out to investigate the trouble on Honoghr, accompanied by two Noghri, a clone trooper, and a Yuuzhan Vong warrior.

ErikModi Wrote:In "Castlevania: Curse of Darkness," one of the enemy types you face in the first area are jousting skeletons riding miniature fire-breathing tyranosaurus rexes. Since it is mathematically impossible for anything to exceed that level of coolness, I've had the idea of Yuuzhan Vong riding around small T. rexes/big velociraptors for a long time. Finally got to use it here.

To this chapter, this one was written from a...few past experiences with family and friends I've had. No editors note from DeshLune this time, they opted to skip this one. But they are well and you should sing their praises in the comment section.

Back again! Happy Nude Year everyone! Hope you're all doing well. My apologies this took a little while. As I mentioned previously I've got some new responsibilities at work and had a bit of an adjustment period. Now that's over with I have a set goal of stories I'd like to complete each month, so hopefully you'll be seeing some more stories from me.
