April - Short Story Poll (Patreon)
Content
Okay. So, just so everyone is aware, I'm only planning on doing this short this month. The secondary short of the month is basically one of the only things I can occasionally skip without feeling horrible about it. And I'm so worn down at this point that I'm trying desperately not to have this month go sideways and stressful on me. I'll cover more about that in my Sitrep post in a day or two. For now, just know that the winner of this poll will be the ONLY short for this month, rather than one of two. Hopefully, that will only be the case for this month and May will be back to the normally scheduled programming.
Now, on to the options! You'll note a couple are missing this time. They haven't been permanently removed. I just need some time to rethink them a bit, since it's clear from previous voting that their current directions aren't quite as interesting to people. Galactic Nomad and The Long Haul should both be returning with new plans next month.
Mass Effect: Final Error: Last update, we more or less hit the end of Mass Effect 1. Though, we're also pretty far off the rails at this point. We're now moving into the period where, in cannon, Shepard ended up dead for two years. But she/he got better! Still, that's not happening in my version. Instead, war with the Hegemony, finishing off the heretics, and trying to build up alliances is all on the docket to deal with. We'll be time-skipping here and there, in order to keep this from dragging on forever, but we'll see aspects of each bit...as well as more kinky fun times between Oriana, Shepard, Liara, and possibly a few others...
Andrea of the Silver Key (Part 5): Last time, the head of Sam's Augmented Reality department was brought on board at a most unusual business meeting. Meanwhile, Andrea, Sam and Lyn have entered into a relationship of sorts. Only Lyn doesn't exactly know that yet. What will Lyn's reaction be? And will Tina the Tech get to play with her boss while setting up the augmented reality? FInd out in Part 5...
Lyriel's Adventures (Cursed Collar/Courier/Harvest Blessing): I've tentatively renamed the Cursed Collar/Not So Cursed Courier/Harvest Blessing series to this. Now that there's three of them and maybe more, it really needed a series name for clarity. As for the actual story this time...after long months, Evelyn will be returning. And Lyriel has suspicions about how 'accidental' her encounter with the Cursed Collar actually was. This time she's going to be the one arranging an accident or two...not just for Evelyn, but for Wina as well, since she's almost certain the halfling was in on it...
The Naughty Aunt's Notebook: Anna has used her Aunt's gift to set up an OnlyFollowers account under a new identity, in hopes of getting out of her parent's house and out from under their stifling rules. But, now that said parents are out of town...how will she keep making new content? And what other uses will she find for the notebook...
An App for That (Part 2): Gwen now has a rather willing target to experiment with more of the App features on. A willing victim who seems very interested being given orders she can't refuse. Just what sort of things will Gwen come up with for her new maybe-lover?
Themes: An App for That is intended to explore themes of mind/body control. With consent, of course.
