I've submitted the story Gloria to the library ... not sure how long it takes to be reviewed and posted, but keep an eye out for it. Might be kinda long (about 9k words), but hopefully it will keep your interest.

Gloria is a character who will soon show up in the ongoing Kiraling story, but given she makes a very unusual appearance in that story, Anonyz asked me to write her backstory and publish it first.

Gloria's story is told through her eyes, and she's the story protagonist. She's on a battlecruiser in deep space when it comes under violent attack. She kills many injured and helpless Terrans with her bare hands... yet she's a hero.

Trust me.

Actually, Shadar, as a fellow, and almost certainly more worthy, member of the Legend club, all your stories go up instantly when you submit them, so your story went up before this thread did! Good to see you back at again, and I look forward to reading your latest.

I hadn't realized. How wonderful. Hopefully the sequel to Gloria I'm scribbling now will be worthy. She needs to get into some serious ubergirl stuff with the other Arions in order to get away. The grizzled Marines who were hazing her with their racist jokes and dissing on her in the Mess will be singing a very different tune soon.

Here's the photo I used to depict how Gloria looks while I was writing the powering-up scene. She's briefly drunk on the arrogance and privilege of becoming a hundred times stronger than even the superhuman Betans, her body vibrating with nearly irresistible desire, a hair's breadth away from losing it completely, her breasts swelling with Orgone power as she prepares to face down the Terrans and their powerful weapons.

Thankfully, she mostly comes back to herself after her hormones settle down a bit.

There is something odd going on with the Gloria story. When I read the latest comment (Brantley's), the link takes me to a copy of Gloria that has only this one comment.

When I klick on the other comments, it takes me to a copy of Gloria that has all the other comments attached.

I made a couple of minor edits in the story after I first posted it, and now I'm wondering if there are multiple copies in different states of edit, or if there is something weird with the commenting machinery.

Anyone got any ideas?

Okay, I've checked the backend and I can see only a single copy of the story so no double posting or anything similar, still I have the same problem as Shadar from the front-end. Considering Brantley's previous post I guess there's something weird going on, I'll pass the ball to Fats.

I didn't see any previous comments on the story (as opposed to the picture) when I posted mine. That seemed strange.

Even stranger is the fact that the header section (posting date etc) of the story you commented on is different from all the others, but the ID number in the Library is the same as the other one.

Just posted Gloria, Part Two. It's not easy to escape an Arion warship and its Primal Captain.

By the way, that weird bug is back... whenever Brantley comments on either of the Gloria stories, all the other comments disappear at the bottom of the story, leaving only his. As far as I know, it only affects Brantley's comments on the Gloria story.

But... if I go back to earlier comments and click on them, that takes me to a 'version' of the story where I see all the previous comments but not his.

It's like the story forks into two separate comment paths after he comments.

How weird.
