Hey, man:

They tried to say that abolishing chattel slavery would ruin the economy.

They tried to say that outlawing child labor would ruin the economy.

They tried to say that the 8-hour day would ruin the economy

They tried to say that a minimum wage would ruin the economy

They tried to say that health and safety regulations would ruin the economy

Have we noticed a pattern yet?

Slight Canon Divergence. Behind the scenes that occur in Hideyoshi MS, but in Maeda Toshiie’s POV.

What were Toshiie’s thoughts after he was exiled by Lord Nobunaga?

Chapter 1: Into the Rain

Toshiie hated waiting.

And thus, he sparred with a lone training dummy in the middle of the courtyard in an effort to improve his martial skills, despite knowing that most of his peers cannot best him. Dusk was falling, and the next day, the army would set off towards the battlefield. None of his former mentor’s retainers went out to train along with him in order to get ready for the upcoming war.

For months the young man had prepared himself for the big event; one that would determine his fate as a samurai. He had trained with his former colleagues, participated in mock battles together with the regiment of Lord Shibata Katsuie, one of the senior retainers of Oda clan and Toshiie’s former teacher. And even though the young man was “officially” a ronin for incurring the wrath of his former liege lord, he is still well-respected; enough to warrant a warm welcome within the estate of the lord commander, who treats the youth like his own son.

When evening falls, there will sometimes be sudden torrential rains. The skies were overcast and  Toshiie could see dark heavy clouds shrouded the dignified Kiyosu castle from afar like a cage. His rain-soaked purple kimono swayed languidly everytime he moves that the top hem of his robes started to become undone. He adjusted it afterwards.  He could hear the trees rustling due to the strong winds that passed them by.

Despite the downpour, however, Toshiie didn’t stop his exercises. He could hear the loud clack whenever his weapon hit the dummy, and whooshing sounds as he maneuvered his practice spear. For a moment, his focus was on his target. The next, however, his mind began to wander as he recalled some of his memories. He gripped his weapon hard that his knuckles went white as his past flashed before his eyes like an old painting.

God, Toyotomi Hideyoshi was the worst person.

If people insult you, that you are a failure, not good enough and your WIPs are useless...it is the devil that speaks. Treat them as if they are madmen, not worthy of your attention.

If people criticize you, like grammar is lacking, need improvement on certain theme, plot or character development, that your phrasing is "wrong" you don't update as often as people hoped ...pause and think about what they say...for even in these harsh feedback you can learn something.

And should the inevitable happen that people give you harsh comment and insults, examine yourself...why did I post my work?

I want to post it for fun...That is good!

I want to post it for likes...well...

If there is anything I learned, I never post my work without accepting these facts...

...THAT THERE WILL ALWAYS BE PEOPLE WHO WILL HATE IT...

...THAT PETTY RIVALS WILL USE ANON TO ATTACK ME, THINKING IT WILL DESTROY ME...

Cheers!

On Anon hate

I spent millions of credits on these.

Brings back memories :)
