No.127921[Last 50 Posts]
Hoi, Zaryans, it's me, Zaryan! I'd like to tell you guys I've been working in my free time from college on an Ongezellig adaptation, NOT a fiktie, and I will publish it here once I make some final proofreading, a promotional artwork, and it's cover. It's totally OC, I've been working on it nonstop, and it's been driving me insane ofzo
<leddit 'ace
Here's from my preface for it:
>This work—novelette, fanfic, chamber-piece, literary adaptation of an online web series—whatever it is of zoiets. It doesn’t fit in any of them because that’s the spirit of what I’m adapting from.
I had two premises in mind when it came to an Ongezellig adaptation:
1. What if the Bottle Smack in the Pilot had consequences?
2. How do I make a story out of it?
<'igle 'ogle 'ace
Let me know if you have questions about what it is. I will answer them honestly without spoling much o algugu

>>127921Zaryan I kneel, I can't even find the time to make gems between classes and you pull this party saving gemerald out, makes me wish that ROY site was still up so it could be properly put on something more official
No.127927
>>127921I have questions
What is Koos and yfke doing?
Do they play any part in the story?
Does it have color?
If it has a complex background, will there be little secrets in it?

No.127931
>>127927It's a chamber play, just like Ongezellig was, but Vera is the focus, the deuteragonist is Rens. I also invented my own character, Vera's colleague called Loes. They are the only three characters. The sisters are not really significant to the story, not in the traditional sense
No.127932
>>127927As for little secrets, very much yes. Colours, the promotional teaser I posted is a hint of the themes I've written, but the other promotional artwork and the cover will be coloured
No.127935
>>127931>>127932Thanks,
also when would it be released?
And when does it occur on the timeline (you could add dates)?
And I want to ask what Loes looks like but I think I'm fine with waiting.
Anyways thanks for the info sound really zemmy, I can't wait to read.
<peeb spaceAnd side note what is Yfke and Koos doing during the novellette, off screen, this question is completely SNCA but I'm just wondering.

Update: I already have a preview set for the first two prologue-like chapters for the novella-thing. But I will only post it in conjuction with a drawing from zours zruly of a scene from the chapters. And probably a character sheet of what seems to be my own ZOC Loes de Vox.
