Faerie Fun

Wednesday, May 29, 2013

This post came out a little later than I would have liked. But fortunately it's a little longer than I've been doing lately, so that should hopefully make up for it.


This was originally supposed to be a Kylie cap. But the vibe just wasn't working out right for the dynamic I had set up with that character. So I decided to keep the same idea of two minds in one body but tweak the relationship a bit until it matched the images and told the story I wanted. Plus it had been a while since I've had a caption that used dialogue to carry the plot (although going through and getting the formatting just right for the two different fonts and colors did remind me why I had taken a break from that style). All in all, this won't be remember as one of my best captions, but I had fun with it and I think you will too.

The Birth of Kylie

Monday, May 27, 2013

ADS
Before I get into the contents of today's post, just a quick administrative comment. I've decided that in order to catch up for missing last week, Monday's and Wednesday's updates will have two captions instead of one (assuming nothing crazy happens, fingers crossed.) So that just leaves one more caption to take care of, which brings us back to today's update.

I've decided that after a year and a half of writing captions, it was about time I included myself in one. I've held off on doing this for so long because I've always felt that I could write a better story if I created completely new characters every time. It's the same reason I don't do sequels to my captions, I tell the story I want to tell and then I move on. But during these past two weeks I came up with an idea that I liked so much I was willing to break both of those patterns, her name was Kylie.

I've seen a lot of captions where the guy loses himself to a female persona (including some of which I've written myself.) So I started to think, what if he didn't disappear. What if instead of being trapped in the situation, it was more like he was stuck in the passenger seat. So I played around with the idea of having two personalities in one body, the usual sort of dominant/submissive relationship that would cause, but something didn't feel right. I had changed the general premise, but I was still writing the same stuff I always had. So I decided to have some fun with it. I gave it a more playful tone, and threw in a little sarcastic humor. The final piece of the puzzle came when I realized that instead of being just two people in one body, I could also make it two different bodies in one life. When one personality is in control the body is male, when the other takes over it's female. But both personalities are always present and can constantly comment on what the other is doing.

The decision to include myself came when I realized how much enjoyed this idea, and this was something that wasn't going to be a one time affair. I figured there wasn't any better way to ensure I'd do this series justice than to have a more personal stake in seeing it's done right. I hope you all enjoy it, because I can promise that this is just the beginning.

Something quick and silly to finish out the week. I had some free time last night but I wasn't really in the mood to write anything, so instead I went looking for images. And boy did I find some. When I usually go hunting for new pics, I'll find a few here and there as I browse. But last night the story ideas just kept coming. I'd conservatively say I got about 15 solid new ideas, as well as some simple quick ones such as the one I used for today's caption. I'm going to try to see if I can find some extra time to turn out a few this weekend, as I really like some of the stuff I have planned. I'd say have a nice weekend, but I've got a good feeling that I'll be posting at least one more new caption before it's over.

A Delightful Spell

Happy Monday everyone. As of right now this week is looking to be much better than the past two for me, which hopefully means everything is back on schedule. Here are a couple of short captions I pulled together for you, pretty typical to most of my earlier work. Seeing as I had taken a bit of a forced break, I wanted to make some pieces I know I know how to write. I turned these out pretty easily so everything's looking good for getting back to normal. See you Wednesday.

A Toss Up

I'm exhausted. I'm going to keep it short today as I have almost no energy right now. I can't tell you how much I need a few days off. Enjoy the weekend everyone, there's a pretty good chance I'm going to sleep through the whole thing.

One Hell of a Ride

ADS
Sorry about the quiet week, the real world decided to get in the way again. Anyway, this was a request by Amber Smithe. She sent me the story outline and the images, which makes it really sad that it still took me almost two weeks to finish it as she did most of the work. But hopefully she likes the final product and thinks it was worth the wait. I like how this one turned out, a little more plot centric than I usually like my captions to be, but it's always good to throw in some variety to my normal style of captioning.

Why Settle?

Saturday, May 25, 2013

ADS What? It's over? I have free time again?

Yep, I'm back. Well...sort of. Things have finally settled down for me after months of a never ending list of things I had to get done. But if everything goes according to plan, I should be done with the craziness for a while. Which means I'm back to captioning. The reason I say sort of, is things won't be on a schedule again for probably another week. I still have stuff that needs to get done, but it's manageable now. So now I just have to figure out a new schedule that lets me get everything in. That won't happen until after the holidays, but until then I'll try to turn out some new stuff for all of you lovely readers. Thanks for hanging in there with me, now let's see if I can make it worth the wait.

Getting Rid of the Attitude

Friday, May 24, 2013

ADS It's been a while since I've had a described transformation caption, so I decided to go ahead and make one. So I wrote a simple story that would be somewhat interesting on its own and have a transformation take place in the time frame of the story. It ended up running a little long, so I had to make the text smaller than I usually like, but in the end I like how it turned out. Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Not Slutty Enough

Wednesday, May 22, 2013

ADS What? Two captions in one week? That's right boys and girls, and I can't believe it either. But before you get your hopes up, let me come right out and say this isn't some of my best writing, just something quick and fun. I was really tired while making this, but I still felt a strong desire to make a caption anyway. I haven't had that in a while, so it was nice to have a little inspiration again. So please excuse any typos, I'll proofread this again tomorrow just to make sure I didn't miss anything, but I wanted to get it out to you as soon as possible as I've been slacking in terms of the number of updates recently. I probably won't be able to make anything else until after Valentine's Day (hence the reference in the caption) but if I get lucky and find some more free time I'll certainly try.

Burn to Disc?

Here's the first of two requests by Candy. She gave me some great ideas for future caps including this one, a request involving myself, her, and her creation, the Hentai Verse. I've never done a Hentai caption before so it was a interesting challenge to take on. I think it turned out pretty well, and hopefully she thinks so as well.

Just...Slipped

ADS This was a fun caption to write as I got to play around with both the mental and physical aspects of a forced transformation, and how the two can play off of each other. I would have liked to have had a third panel as the text is a little on the small side, but I didn't have another image that worked. All things considered though, I'm pretty happy with the way this one turned out.

Panty Punishment

ADS What is this, three new captions on three consecutive days? And this is my fourth new caption this week? It's almost like I'm turning out new content on a consistent basis.

This is just another quickie that I'm using to play around with new ideas and new perspectives. Again, it's nothing fancy or really erotic, but hopefully stuff like this will keep the creative juices flowing so when I do get a good idea I don't freeze up with a case of writer's block again.

Just Ask

ADS
I've been in a bit of a rut these past couple of weeks. I'm still putting out new captions, but I haven't really loved any of them. I just sort of feel like I'm spinning my wheels. So I'm taking a tip from my newest caption and asking for what I want. If you've got a few minutes check out the new page I just added the explains what my current situation is and how I think it can be fixed. I'd really appreciate it.

Anyway, here's a new caption for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy.

Fairy Tale Ending

Fair warning, this is not a typical tg caption. For lack of a better term, I'm calling it writer porn. I didn't feel like creating the usual kind of caption today, but I still felt like writing. So I decided to play around with the idea of a character who has undergone a transformation, and is now realizing it wasn't the quick fix she was looking for. Actually, if it wasn't for the context of this blog, this wouldn't be a tg caption at all, as there is no mention of the gender change in the story. But seeing as we all know why we're here, I figured the transformation was implied enough. Anyway, thanks for putting up with my self-indulgence once again.

Mornings with Kylie

Sunday, May 19, 2013

I'm still playing around with the idea of adding titles. I haven't found a way that I like yet, but don't be surprised if you see them start to show up here and there.

I haven't done a Kylie caption in a while, so I decided it was time for her to reappear and make my life a little more interesting once again. Not my best work, but I had a lot of fun writing it as I get write dialog and be sarcastic, which just happen to be two of my favorite activities.

For those of you who are new and unfamiliar with this little universe of mine, all you need to catch up can be found here. You can also click on the Kylie tag to see what other shenanigans the two of us get up to.

Angel in the Night

Happy weekend everyone. I had planned on using my down time today to find some new images and then create a new caption tomorrow, but this image just wouldn't wait. The story formed so quickly that I didn't want to risk losing it so I quit my search and went right into captioning. Unfortunately the speed with which I created the story was not present in the formatting process as well. I went through a ton of backgrounds before finding one I liked, and then it took me a longer than it should have to work it into my standard layout without the test becoming illegible. Needless to say the whole process just reminded me of why I'm primarily a writer, and not a designer.

Speaking of design, I've been considering including my titles in the captions themselves. Under my current system all my captions are labeled by their "production code" of C# while they're being made (which explains the odd names of the files I upload to the blog). I don't come up with a title until I'm making the actual blog post. But for today's caption the title came as I was writing it. I briefly messed around with including it before deciding I had spent enough time on this caption already and just went ahead without. But the whole process had me wondering, do you all want to see titles included in the actual caption? Or do you like the way they're formatted now?

How Lucky You Are

ADS Nothing too special with today's update. I've had this image in my "To Caption" folder for a long time and I finally decided it was time to just get it done. It's nothing that hasn't been done many times before by myself and plenty of others, but I still think it turned out okay.

I'm going to try to turn out at least one new caption a week now that I'm back. It's a bit of a step down from my ideal of three updates every week, but I'm still trying to find a balance between sticking to a schedule and actually finding the time to create new material.

Corporate Punishment

This was a request for Amber Smithe, who sent me the story outline and a massive photo set she wanted me to use images from. I changed the story around a bit as I decided to tell the whole thing through dialog, which also had the added effect of leading me to write the most awkward transformation description I've ever had in a caption. But as a whole I like how it turned out, and I hope Amber does too.

On a less pleasant note, I'm going to be taking some time off from captioning. I know what some of you are thinking "You're updating once every two weeks as it is, how much more time off do you need?"

To that I say...um...fair point. But here's my current creative process:

My current captions take me about 2 hours to make when you put everything together (image, background, story, formatting). But I usually only have about an hour of free time for captioning. So what usually happens is I end up with a lot of half formed ideas that end up on my to do list. Then when I do get time to revisit the ideas, I want to do something really good as I haven't posted in a while which kills my motivation to do most of the stuff I put on the list.

So I'm taking some time off where I won't look at anything captioning related. Hopefully it won't be much longer than the breaks between my updates are now, and I'll come back with some fresh ideas and the energy to do them. Some more free time would help too, but that doesn't see too likely.

Anyway, see you all again in a bit.

Big, Bouncy, Boobies

Saturday, May 18, 2013

ADS I love alliteration. Nothing creates a playful tone as quickly or as easily. Anyway, here's something I threw together to hold you all over until I finish my next request. I just realized I've been sitting on it for over a month, so hopefully I can get it finished this weekend at the latest. December really, wasn't a good month for me. At my current captioning rate I'll double my output this month, and I honestly thought I was off to a slow start this year. I'm considering switching to loose schedule for 2012. I still want to turn out three captions a week, but I'm not sure if I want regularly scheduled update days. Let me know if have an opinion one way or the other, I'm interested to see what you all think.
