## [RT][WIP] Worth the Candle, Ch 6 * Author: u/cthulhuraejepsen *Fruit flies like a banana** * URL: http://archiveofourown.org/works/11478249/chapters/25980909 * Score: 26 * Created: 2017-07-21T13:25:28 ### Post: [Link to content](http://archiveofourown.org/works/11478249/chapters/25980909) ### Comments: > **u/cthulhuraejepsen** [+12] *Fruit flies like a banana* (7 minutes later) > > > It's a self-insert litRPG portal fantasy, loosely based on my personal experience of falling into a portal to another world and discovering that I had a character sheet attached to my soul. > > I've been updating this at a pretty steady clip but don't want to spam this subreddit, so will probably post here once a week in order to keep from annoying people by having lots of chapters. > > Don't forget to like, comment, share, and subscribe! >> **u/Laborbuch** [+6] (17 hours later) >> >> > Don't forget to like, comment, share, and subscribe! >> >> You forgot the most crucial request: the firstborn’s soul for a steady update rate. Something needs to push the soul cycle to higher speeds after all. > **u/Kodix** [+8] (18 hours later) > > I really, really like this. The first chapter was decent when you posted it, but now that there's a fair chunk of writing to bite into, I know enough to judge - and I think the story's excellent. > > Thanks for sharing it with us! > **u/Krozart** [+3] (3 days later) > > Awesome, I've just binged read this and I was a surprised by how much I like this. I will definitely be following this. I am looking forward to the next chapter! > **u/edqu-** [+2] (4 days later) > > Mmm, nice. > > I don't know how many other people there are like me but I skipped every single segment discussing your old life and your dnd group, and will probably continue to skip them. I hope they continue to be plot irrelevant. > > Also, the coterie minions seem way too much like meaningless NPC goon automata. I'm guessing you didn't intend that, since you don't comment on it in-universe. > > But really those are mostly nitpicks, everything else was pleasantly excellent and I'm really looking forward to reading more! >> **u/Calsem** [+5] (a month later) >> >> Personally, I liked the backstory segments. A lot of rational fics lack emotion and the backstory segments help fully develop the character. ---
