Enjoy. :)
Hello! I'm Emory, a trans woman writing transgender comics and caption stories. My work usually explores "realistic" scenarios, although occasionally they involve super science or magic.

Loved it! Thrilling story!

ReplyDeleteThanks!!!
DeleteGreat story! Enjoyed this edge of the seat story Emory, hope things settle down for you so that we can see more of
ReplyDeleteyour great work regularly.
Thanks a lot, Knight!!!! Me too. :D
DeleteHe went to Pristina, "a war-torn shithole of a country".
ReplyDeleteGo fuck yourself. Don't pick a random city you heard about online and shit on it when you've never been there or know a thing about it.
Er... I didn't? I thought it was obvious this took place a little while after the Kosovo War.
DeleteAnon, there's a literary device called a narrator. It's used to present a viewpoint rather than objective facts.
DeleteSo, I'd say "Go fuck yourself," but clearly you've already achieved that given the butthurt you're evincing over a caption. Instead, try reading some more and learn more about even the basics on writing before crying because the viewpoint character of a caption doesn't present your country as a glittering paradise.
Yeah, Brandi. Such an emotional response to the fictional opinion expressed by a fictional character who has been kidnapped and and forceably transformed does seem a bit overboard. After all, the true focus of Emory's tales is not that of a tour guide, but of gender alteration.
DeleteI must assume that the anonymous objection was posted by someone more interested in reading works of TG/TF fiction rather than some troll trying to protect the reputation of a town they happen to like. And posting such a derisive, (and off-topic), comment publicly should have been addressed in another manner.
I had honestly thought Emory had "created" a fictional location and, perhaps, that night be a better option in the future. But, artistic license being the rule for captioneers, lurkers might want to take that into account before commenting.
I'm just sayin';

Hi Elle & Brandi - Thanks for the defense! I tend to use real places because I like to "ground" things in reality as much as possible.
DeleteGlad to support a fellow captioneer, Emory! And, while I understand your point about real places/people adding to the story's connection with the reader, it is exactly the possibility of having an accidental search bring a visitor who is not looking for our sort of ... diversity, that I try to avoid using things too close to "reality"... Especially in searchable text-fields!
DeleteI honestly hope that the reader who left the above comment was able to get past their personal feelings about the setting and enjoy your story for what it is!!!
Peace,Love&Kisses!!!
I really liked this one a lot. Don't worry about not being able to post more regularly, whenever you do, it's a treat.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Anon!
DeleteAll that being said. While this is an artfully-crafted and well-told tale, Emory; It is discouraging that such a blessing of having a gender transformation performed on an unwilling and unappreciative subject for the sole motive of personal profit.
ReplyDeleteAlthough, as for this story, I must observe that it is a truly devious ploy to have the "escapee" "rescued" by 'her' buyer in order to establish a thankful attitude in the 'damsel'. It might even lead to develop an almost 'natural' relationship of love between them, while leaving the woman formerly known as "Mark" none-the-wiser.
Peace,Love&Kisses;

Thanks, Elle! "Unwilling and unappreciative" are sort of my bread and butter, haha.
DeleteAND YOU TOTALLY GUESSED THE NEXT PART OF THE CAPTION!
Shhh! Don't tell anyone. ;)
Oh NO! Not a spoiler!? I was only inferring what I thought might be a direction to take the tail... uh- I mean tale.
DeleteI am so sorry, Sweetie!
I'm not sure whether to bemoan that I was thinking such a devious plot or to throw my arm around you because we were SO on the same page!?!
:x :x :x
It's okay, Elle. Great minds think alike. Or is that "devious minds?" Either way, we think alike. :P
