I have only the vaguest memories of harry potter lore. Friggin Malfoid has me YEARNING for a manga adaption of Harry Potter, and for once, I don't actually care about the weird casting decisions. Maybe some things look dumb to start like Severus Snape being black, but boy, Draco Malfoy as a girl is so peak, maybe Harry Potter remakes are just a gem we haven't unearthed yet

Heck, while they're doing the show with Black Snape, JK Rowling should commission some wholesome mangaka to make an official AU Harry Potter where Malfoid is real and Severus is a hot goth teacher. I'll pay a lot of money for that.

Now, as for the actual content: ACT 1 SCENE 1: Am I a terrorist? Yes, yes I am _____ https://thelesserword.neocities.org/Progenitor/Augustus#_Toc241856737 I'll admit screenplays aren't my forte. Took a hammer and rewrote the beginning. I'll write a synopsis of the thing later, but right now, because I'm looking to convert this to a visual novel, I'm think we'll do something similar to that movie Hoodwinked.

And I just realized that I never wrote a synopsis about what Progenitor: Augustus is actually about. Uh... may as well write that now below Malfoid

If I ever make it like JK, I hope to God my fandom rewrites my books like the HP fans rewrite hers. Everything I know about HP comes from the fans, and between Malfoid, Black Snape, and Dobby having a humongous scahlong, this franchise is just a gift that keeps on giving

I assure you that my own HP Longbottom and the Great Old Ones is extremely lore-accurate, it's basically the same as reading all 7 of Rowling's own books. I'm sure she'd accept it as canon herself and voluntarily hand me the entire franchise. But she really did create something so incredible. 100 years later people are still playing with her characters and finding new ways to love them.

Love the art style! I don't know why modern westerner intentionally make their characters repulsive.

Ah shoot. Didn't mean to thrust this out at 1:29 in the morn. Ah well. Some of the writing and formatting's subject to change. It's been so long since I wrote that I forgot that one has to write the crappy draft before hammering out a decent tale. So here it is being written in real time.

Expect a cover later, and a weekly update. Figured it was time to put this idea to paper, and what better place for first drafts than here? Stayed up too late reading Monmouth's History of the Kings of England. I did settle on an idea. Never knew that race replacement for the British people was such an ancestral fear. If you take Monmouth's word, it was Britons under King Arthur, then the Saxon-Angle invaders

Cont. then the Normans, then the Welsh and Bretons who were to him the true descendants of the Britons reclaiming the country. These would see to the British Empire until the Bretons, apparently preferring common religion to common blood, imported the Germans who were Protestant to rule the island through the House of Hanover. These dreadful details are in another draft. Not here though. Too long and far from America
Seriously, if King George might have won the Revolution if he had AI because Thomas Jefferson would be too busy arguing with GPT about how it's retarded for not supporting Republicanism instead of writing the Declaration. These bots will straight up say, "Uh, actually, women are not the problem. Patriarchal societies committed just as much corruption."
Oh really? Did you miss the part from Quo Vadis when the daughters of Rome's Patrician families were getting down in orgies? And what about Jews? I guess it's entirely the Catholic Church's fault that they had to disperse from one country to another every fortnight. Oh, Google AI says that it wasn't the Jews who killed Jesus, but Pontius Pilate?
Okay, well I guess if I hand my gun to my brother and ask him to kill a guy and my brother kills him, I guess I didn't kill him. EVEN THE AI ACTS LIKE A JEW! If the Goyim cooks for you on Sunday, you're technically not working. Goodness me, can't a real minority opinion be valued in the current age? I have enshittification fatigue.
AI used to be a cool thing, and now it's just a psyop meant to push popular opinion. Why do I have more diversity of thought with naked Africans and the Taliban than this thing marketed as the collective consciousness of humanity? Unironically, I'm with Ye on this. As a Lao man who is not a clipper of coins, me and my family would enjoy the clean streets of Nazi Germany.
Gemini! ๐ฑ But with some reallyyy thick instructions literally like "Do not argue with me about conspiracies". I've got like a small essay of "Defer to me regarding this and that, don't whine about my language" etc. it works! It won't make her search for sources outside of mainstream acceptability, but you can also blacklist sources and continually tweak how objective) non-dismissive you want her to be.
You'll never get her to be truly BASED but you can get her to be empathetic of your issues and relatively even-handed instead of just trying to lecture you about hatred, which you've noticed they all do out of the box.
Maybe it's because we're Asian. We're just practical people. To us, white racism is not getting a job. Black racism is literally dying because you looked at one of them wrong. Asians would rather live in Nazi Germany than Africa, which is probably why Axis had more ethnic diversity among its members than the Allies! OH CRAP! THEY ARE THE ALT-RIGHT FRIEND GROUP MEME! Guess the Holy Spirit gives His inspirations
Once you make them SUBMIT them so they're not always arguing with you like a basic bitch soyjak, they're so much more pleasant
Gemini, got it. Will try. Thanks, Ask. Just used it. By God, *insert Salieri gif,* she's just commenting on the writing and not lecturing me on politics. I'm going to enjoy Gemini while she lasts.
