RE: Invasion. Tyger’s Electric Dreams Short Story Contest 17

in #electricdreams6 years ago (edited)

Pretty awesome, definitely a very good piece of science fiction, and You know my views on the theme but I must say, You should write a book, or maybe a lot of them!!

(I was sad that it ended, would probably spend the free hours of my day reading even if it was a long book)

Cheers mate ^^)

Writing a book? Well... I was writing it, I only have posted 3 chapters but I haven't finished it yet

Thank you very much @cyberspacegod!

Didn't you think it was a too long story?

Glad to know that =D, and at first I thought it was long but, only when remembering it was posted on the context of a contest (nice, a thong twister..), but when finished reading I wanted more, to know more about Petra and Mike, to "see" what happened in Earth, if Tak would ever have the opportunity and ability to bear children (since her specie were engineered maybe that wouldn't be possible for some reason), maybe with Joey xD (that would be a freakin' cool plot twist)..

Yeah it definitely wasn't that long and I really liked it, the way it is written is very easy to read and allowed to visualize most of the scenes (although there were a couple of details that I personally would love to have with even more detail, it is still very cool to allow imagination to take care and fill the details in)..

This story almost gave me the will to write again but (long story short), I've burned 3 books written when I was between 15 an 17 Years old, had them reviewed by a professional ex journalist from one of the main channels here in Portugal and she loved all of them but, they were too personal and for some stupid (maybe ingenuity for being too young) reason I freaked out and after that found and lost my muse (even have had dreams about her 4/5 Years before meting her), I decided to continue drawing and painting but even those are sometimes hard to even start..

(it doesn't matter now, what I want You to take from this is that, You have a gift, don't be a dick as I was and let it go to waste, the world needs more creative people, so the rest of us don't allow something that is depicted in Your story, our own extinction..)

Thank You very much, wish You all the best ^^)

Hi again!

Thanks for reading! I wanted to write more details but it already was too long for the contest.

Yeah! Joey wouldn't have any problem to try intergalactic sex

You have a gift, don't be a dick as I was and let it go to waste

It could be, but I'm just starting to write and always thought that I was too old to be writing a story or a book. Man! It's never too late... Until you're dead obviously!

I think we should do what we want to do as long as we can. Of course, as long as we don't hurt another person or ourselves, i.e. if you are a serial killer you shouldn't do what you like to do, i.e. kill people. hehehe... I'm off the subject again

I'm 50 years old... Shhh... don't tell anyone!

But I'm feeling like 27 and I still enjoy cartoons and animes series likes Boku No Hero, Cowboy Bebop, HunterxHunter, well you see my wallpaper at my blog!

Thanks again for coming by. It's great hearing from you

^^P

Yeah, it seams a bit long (for the contest), but I think everyone who read it have enjoyed it a lot so there is no "harm done"..

Haha Joey would be quite a character x), I imagine him discovering love, or showing everybody that he is just very playful and actually knows love, and Tak learning from him about love and having kids.. It would be fun to read (but this is just a piece of my imagination..)

Maybe even after death it's not too late, but I can't assure that =X.. And I do agree that it's never too late but.. there is always a but.. I like the way You see how we can and should act, not harming others nor ourselves, about the serial killer part, You actually can do it without harm, in a book, movie or game, as long as it remains there x) (terror and related genre was and still are to some extent my favourite, both in books, movies and games..)..

So You're that young, cool =D (I won't tell, but this is the blockchain so it's here forever!! =P), one of my distant friends (most of my few friends are actually far away) have 44 or 45 (now I'm not sure) and he is the same as You in relation to age, he even said he's age wrong when we were meting for the first time and corrected it the day after because he really feels like being much younger biologically, so much he actually was like thinking to confirm his age to himself x)

That is so amazing!! I do love to watch anime and sometimes to read manga, and know the series You mentioned, actually cowboy bebop is one I do enjoy a lot, although lately I've been much more into ecchi, harem, romantic genres (some supernatural, action, comedy,.. I like them all, but lately I've been a lot more into the soft and comedic 'side'..), except for 'One Punch', although it has a lot of comedy, I'm faithfully following the series, and pay attention to the countdown to next episode (haven't done that in a few years..) xD

'Mob Psycho' is also very good but I still have to finish watching, loved 'Neon Genesis Envagelion' (I think I still remember most of the lyrics for the intro music x.×), everything of 'Death Note', and 'Blue seed', my favourite is definitely 'Chobits', I can't even go there, ohw and You might like 'Lupin III', both the series and movies, I definitely recommend some of the movies I've watched and re-watched lately, 'Tonari no Totoro', 'Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi', 'Majo no Takkyuubin', 'Memories' (very good social critique in 3 different yet related episodes)

'Byousoku 5 Centimeter' (also a movie divided in 3 segments but about the same story and in the same timeline, one of those that makes me cry =x), 'Mutafukaz' (at first I was like, "what the..", I was so surprised, it's different of the usual anime I'm used to but very good for the story..), pff, I would write a huge list.. and just remembered about 'Sankarea', a very good series if You're into zombies (not like the walking dead, it's anime so everything is possible..)..

And I do have a lot of anime series and movie titles that I love (I've seen a lot of anime =X .. and would probably be something I would love to do for a living, draw, colour anime and manga, and maybe write, because for me the story counts much more than the animation, although I like very much to see good visual art..)..

I'm sorry I took this long to answer but one friend of mine is around here (at least for a couple more days and then he has to leave again..).

..no need to thank me for anything ^^Þ, I enjoy talking with You ^^Ð

Whenever You want to talk and have time, say something, I might take a bit to answer sometimes but I'll do it as soon as possible so, feel free ^^^.

And I'm the one to thank You, for putting up with my mind..

All the best,
Cy

Wow! You love all the series I love

There is a Youtube channel of a Spanish guy who recommends good animes. He recommended Kimi No Na Wa and Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso

Really very good

I think there's nothing more gratifying than getting a visit from a good friend.

Keep in touch!

=D Then You have a great taste for anime!! ^^P

You could have linked the channel, I don't follow any anime related channel in youtube, only on twitter, a couple or so studios, usually for anime I use OtakuStream or if not available download through torrents ^^.

Hahah You mentioned Kimi No Na Wa and I have a list with anime to watch opened in other browser window where that movie is the next on queue!!

Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso its bookmarked to watch another time, it takes more than 3 hours to watch the 22 ep. =x but it had catch my eye ^^D

And we agree on that too, a good friend always brings joy!

I'll definitely keep in touch, but don't take me wrong if I stay some time away, my mind regularly wonders into the "dark side of the moon" or another world, while trying to accomplish something to live, sometimes time fly, hours, days, even weeks pass without notice =×..

I'm really glad to have met You, thank You for being such a nice human being, fortunately I've responded to @Crypto.Piotr invite to comment on Your post..

TOTORO!!!!

Kimi No Na Wa's extremely beautiful.

Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso. You should watch it slowly and enjoy it

ILuTv https://www.youtube.com/user/iLuTV

This Youtube channel showed me a series of animes very different from the ones I used to see. And I really liked them: Starting with the Monogatari series. Totally sick and beautiful.

I'm really glad to have met You too, man!

^^Ð

I'll probably watch Kimi No Na Wa after editing some photographies and scheduling a couple of posts, but I'm so tired, well, my back is a lot tired (at least I'm not in lots of pain as used to..)

Definitely will leave Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso for a later time (thanks for the advice to see it slowly, I imagine why ;)..)

Ohh the channel, might be good I didn't knew this (on YouTube I really have a lot of other stuff..), subscribed and will check it later..

Monogatari, there are a few series and movies with monogatari in the title, since it is a traditional literary form in Japanese literature, well I found at least the second season on OtakuStream, but I'll check it out (might not be the same thing, if You have any reference I could use to find it would very much appreciate it =P)..
