Sylum Fic: Roads Untravelled by Bj Jones

The moment y’all have been waiting for.

The new and improved Roads Untravelled.

We started working on this particular story, mainly because of the changes made with Sam Winchester who is now Theo, and the introduction of John Rhys as Meridia.

As Meridia played an important part in Roads it needed to be updated.

Once we got into it … the bobs got involved.

This story has an additional 100 pgs, than the original – a total of 580 pgs.

 Yes, you read that right 580 pgs.

Read it.

Read it again.

Read it a 3rd time.

There is a lot of new information that will be vital for upcoming storyline.

The new story has been uploaded to the Archive … did I mention the 580 pgs?

It was a bit large to put on the blog.

*hands out coffee & tea, treats & snacks*

With no further ado … if you even waited this long before clicking!

Demons & Angels by Timothy Quinn

 

A Note From the Author: 

I love and hate Dan Brown in equal measure.  I’m not entirely sure how that’s even possible.  But there it is.

His historical and artistic interpretation of … everything, drives me batshit, in provoking a willing suspension of disbelief that you want so very badly to actually believe, thinking he’s leading you on an epic journey, only to fall flat on your face at every ending he ever writes.

I had to do something about this, having hurled my copy of Angels and Demons across the room in anger and frustration.

I had to save the Camerlengo.

I had to do something productive with a fantastically ruined character of charisma and depth whose motivations were pushed from ‘willing suspension’ to ‘you are fucking kidding me with this shit’.

So here he is…

…and then Ernesto came along with him, because he was so goddamn hateful in the book, and so ridiculously cute in the movie, it was a contradiction that’s never quite worked.

Nothing in Angels and Demons worked, even one of the Altars of Science was placed in the wrong damn spot in Rome!  And for the record Raphael has NEVER been buried anywhere else in the history of ever… (don’t get me started cos this could be a long list).

I’m thinking of Sylumizing Dan Brown’s ‘The Lost Symbol’.

Hold onto your butts.  Antonio Crisafi is coming along for the ride … just as soon as Speed’s eaten his copy of Langdon’s book.

Signed,

Timothy Quinn

Throwback Thur… Not Today: New Sylum Timestamp!

Surprise a New Sylum Timestamp!

This story sets after Watchdog … to understand this story you must have read it.  This is also an important set up for some of the changes that will be showcased in Roads Untraveled that will be posted next week during – Ernesto Olivetti Week.

Title: Under the Bridge
Author: Bj Jones
Creative Consultant: Timothy Quinn
Summary: Harold and John have a very important conversation about his past and their future.
Author’s Note: I’ve said it a few times, that all the Sylum stories connect to each other, and that you shouldn’t really skip a story because ‘it’s not my fandom’.  This story has some very important info and threads that tie the whole universe together.  PS if you read my snippets on EAD … one of those stories ties into this.
2nd Author’s Note: I know there was some confusion with Coding Language that was in the beginning of Watchdog, that it was an actual coding error, when it is actually Coding Language for The Machine – so always make sure to look through it, to see what The Machine is thinking.
