Comment: Mutiple Authors, "New Worlds Awaiting"
Mutiple Authors net fiction New Worlds Awaiting
Furry
This is a group of stories about a world turned on its head by the rays of a supernova. Everyone with a furry persona has woken up to find that they are that character and everyone else without one is gone. All the furries try to deal with the current situation and figure out what to do next. Som ...more

Sadly, along with all the humans, this website appears to have died as well - no new updates in over 5 years. And you have to wonder about a title page with so many typos on it. You would think the author might have taken some time to go back and fix them. I guess that just makes it feel more like a MUCK.

But it's a cute, if hastily created, story world. I'm glad to be counted among those who will survive the supernova :)

I'd almost hate to think what I'd be if I survived that supernova... too many things floatin around in my head... I end up some type of freak. :-P

From: Hexed_Gug , 216 months, post #3
A freak? Sort of like a platypus, I'd imagine.

"Where does a platypus learn a word like hodgepodge?"

I agree it is sad to see a dead site like that. Same goes for the Transformation Story Archive. I remember when they actually had updates and new stories added.
New Worlds Awaiting could do with some sprusing up. Maybe update the background to something cooler, fix the typos, add a header, and promote more, and the site could come alive again.

But I think they are pretty practical when it comes to what would happen if only furries were left.
They make sure to shut down anything that could explode if left alone (nuclear power plants, chemical plants, etc.)
Try to contact anyone that they know would of survived.
Let any animals (animal-animals) out of their homes so that they don't starve.
They plan on moving to some place warmer, so they don't have to be in trouble durring the winter. (No one to run the power plants = no power = no heater system)
Wal*Mart, Sam's and other stores make great places to find supplies.

But you would think more people would be left. I believe while most people might not be openly pleased with the thought of identifing themsleves as an animal, they might secretly like the idea of being a cat-person or a fox or horse or dragon or whatever.

Oh and my favorite story is MythicFox's Story... that is actually what inspired me to become a kitsune.

I think the whole thing is a downright embarrassing exercise in wish-fulfilling wankery. All of the mean, nasty normals go away, leaving a population that is probably overinflated and definitely ludicrously idealized. Going door to door to let pets out and turning off things that 'could explode if left alone' is cloyingly naive hand-waving at best. The odds of enough 'survivors' having the technical skills to shut everything like that down, being close enough to reach them, or even bothering in the face of what amounts to an extinction event are very, very low. Really, the world's architect would have been futher ahead just claiming that the magical supernova turned fossil fuels and fissiles into inert bolognium, given that it's already wrought other equally absurd transmutations.

...lighten up dude.

It's just a story. You might as well be agruing the logic behind 'Cat in the Hat'

From: guest (Bieeanda) , 216 months, post #7
I don't know. The Cat in the Hat probably has more literary merit and internal logic.

From: cj , 216 months, post #8
Well, I applaud the author(s) for attempting to address some of these issues in the first-place. Lest they be loose-ends hanging.

From: Lady Sekhmet , 216 months, post #9
Bieeanda, sometimes you just have to toss logic to the wind if you want to explore. Even Shakespeare knew "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy."

If solid reality is what you are seeking, I dare say you will find little of it here :)

From: cj , 216 months, post #10
Heck... I find little reality in the real world.

From: Lady Sekhmet , 216 months, post #11
Have you taken your medication today cj? Do they have you on the blue pills or the red now? :)

Kitsune, if you want to get something new started along these lines I'd be only too happy to contribute some web space for it.

From: KitsuneKit , 216 months, post #12
Nahh... Not right now. One day maybe. Actually, you know what? Yeah, I think I will do it, we just need some premise to base it all off of and then get the word out to all the web authors out there.

From: cj , 216 months, post #13
I took the purple pill and the little yellow pill... no my tummy doesn't ache anymore. :-P

The trigger event:

Natural changes in the earth's climate coupled with global warming cause the polar ice to melt. The increased fresh water melt causes the interruption in flow of the great oceanic conveyor-belt. The interruption cause the global temperature to drop, devistating agricultural production in the northern hemisphere, and forcing man to adapt to his changing world.

Then the catastrophe hits! Yellowstone's super-volcano erupts in it's most violent activity ever, causing major seismic events, and other volcanic events all around the globe... not to mention the resulting tsunamis. The volcanic ash causes another major drop in global temperatures. The seismic, tsunami and some volcanic activity cause destruction of major energy and chemical facilities. Some of this damage involves nuclear power generation and nuclear & chemical and biological weapon storage facilities - resulting in the release of radioactivity and toxic and/or lethal chemical & biological agents. Perhaps damaging some research institutions too - institutions that are working on medicine, genetics, biotech, nanotech, and robotics.

Mix appropriately and you have some weird stuff that's going to be happening... and a planet that might just be rocked back into the stone-age.
