Just a silly little intro thingie since I haven’t spoken on here for the better part of a half a year or so.. just no reason to, all the others talk on the Fandom so.. yea I’ll basically just be here for ToT and to post chapters. (I’d read other stories but I have such little free time to spare.. and I procrastinate a lot.) Break-it! I read your first ToT chapter! You write really well, and I like your characters, only note I have is to add more context after quotes to say who said what, it’s not a big issue especially when just two people are speaking but it does get a bit confusing if it’s three or more, you know what.. it was two people talking maybe you already knew this… ignore me if so 😅 Welcome to the Crossover counsel!

Oh also hello any newcomers I haven’t met.

First of all…
I finished the first arc of TOT. It’s on awesome story and I can’t wait to get into it. But I didn’t realize that Ben had posted three chapters and I only read the final one he wrote(BEN I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU WOULD RETIRING FROM TOT… or are you stopping the next arc…?) Second of all SoR is connected to our world so prepare to hear references to random things of books to anime to toys to real life. I’ll be busy tomorrow so lets get ready.
Break-it The Final Witness
SpiritDragon, welcome to Achatina. You can use this to chat with other writers and give news on your story. There’s also the Dododex Fan Fiction Wiki. Just look up “Dododex fan fiction wiki” and there it is!
I’d also suggest reading our stories too.
To Cheesecake: you should read our stories to get ideas for your story.
I ask another writer to make a list of all the stories to help out you two.

Chapter 30 of CON was great! I thoroughly enjoyed the human v human fight and the usage of their abilities throughout, but they're definitely going to make an enemy of KJ and his tribe after this. I think you posted it as Chap 29 tho, so I suggest reposting it w/ the correct title.
Hey all
I submitted next chapter BUT WAIT DONT READ CHAP 30 IF IT DOES NOT HAVE A HEADING THAT SAY
creatures of nightmares
Chapter 30 (hehehe I’m excited)
CAUSE I pressed the submit button then I accidentally swiped up, saw some of the writing was gone, and then it submitted!
I did the switch thing to get more space but it was fine after I did that. My internet has been spotty tho..

Oh yes, by the way, Chapter 55 of TOT is out, so whenever you finish reading it Break-it you can work on 56.
Also, my short story The Arks: Alternative Timeline is finished. Its only 20 chapters long (7 ACTs) amd is a survivor-POV game-style ark story located in Theri. Hope you enjoy!

DiploLover, Chapter 28 of CON was great! That plot twist that the girl human Ripley Jane was a wolf of Ridley’s past was a fun plot twist. The plot twists of CON are really killin’ me here. I’m wondering what made Ridley turn his back on Jane for Adira. Was it manipulation? Or his own will? Ridley is certainly messed up either way, despite his redemption. I also liked the POV of the wolves on Carnivore Island, and I’m wondering how Jane turned into a human, traveled to the Crystal Isles, and why she came back. It seems she’s been used to being a human this whole time. Maybe they’re not the same, and they just have the same name. Anyway CON has been great so far and 29 will be just as awesome.

DiploLover, Chapter 27 of CON was great! The wolves really did fool the humans. Also it seems that the Yutys are being blackmailed into getting rid of the rest of the wolves. I’m interested to see how this will play out with the rest of the humans and what not. I’ll be around for 28.
Break-it, most of us use Google Docs or just a different app like Notes / Pages or Microsoft Word to write our stories, and then we copy paste it onto the DDEX. So while there isn’t a function on the DDEX itself it’s still the easiest solution. Also, read Chapter 22 and Alfred de Cardo seems like a really cool and formidable villain so far. I’m assuming that this is the villain that will be used for TOT. Anyway, it was cool and I’m glad you’re getting back into SOR.
RelatingHen, Chapters 22 - 24 were pretty good. One thing I’ve noticed though is that Nudon are gonna send in their Gigas to help kill the Titanosaur, which is a fine strategy, but I’ve noticed that Thylas are actually much more effective since they do percentage-based damage. If Sodden gets the final hit in on the Titanosaur though with an explorer note boost, broth of enlightenment, and toilet boost he could probably level up by quite a bit. NeddyTheNoodle used this strategy to speed level on his playthrough of ASE. Anyway I liked the callback to the second chapter of the story near the end of 23, it was pretty cool. Also liked the fight between the Gigas and the Alpha Rex. I’m assuming now that Chapter 25a will be the Titanosaur Showdown, and the rest of the parts will be just the boss battles. One thing that could use some clarity though (and I’ve just realized) are Nudon’s tribemates besides Denine and Red. We know those two are the main people, but there are also others as well. The tribemates don’t have to be major characters, but knowing how many of them there are and who they are could also help add more character interaction and depth, since it feels like there are only 2 people in the Nudon tribe. Not sure about Rod’s tribe, but that could help with his too. I’d suggest doing the same for C Tribe and Nameless too because we only know that Terad and Serenity are members. Anyway, I’ll be around for 25.
