D.M.C. (Devil May Cry AU)

[Chancey289]

Hey guys, finally after reworking and dealing with what life throws at me, I was able to finally complete the first chapter of my Devil May Cry AU fanfic I am dubbing currently simply, D.M.C.

This is my own personal vision taking inspiration from the series as a whole but, all in all and entirely original tale featuring our favorite demon hunter. Hope you guys dig my vision and even get a laugh along with the exciting DMC action we all know and love. Without further ado, let the tale begin.

You can read it on my Deviant Art page and also well, check out some of my art while you're at it if you'd like.

Warning:There are a few swear words but other than that it's pretty teen rated. Nothing too adult. You're all big kids now, right?

Hope to get some feed back.

Haha the line about being far enough in debt to start a government got a good laugh. Overall I really enjoy your version of Dante and I think the tone is pretty true to the series. I'm engaged and excited to read more .

You put it on da?
You mad, bro?
I've been writing for years but you'd have to pay me (or dare me with a very appealing prize) to put anything on da. They are not worthy *snooty face* plus ff.net is way better (so is aff.net but *coughcoughnosebleed*)

But I'm a sucker for DMC fanfiction and we are a community here so I'll be reading and reviewing it for you sooner rather than later. Thanks for sharing Chancey =)

I couldn't think of anywhere else to put it to share it with you guys. :/

I just hope people read and enjoy it.

Glad you enjoyed it man. ^^ Share it with some friends. I love it when people enjoy my work. Feels nice lol.

I've already started outlining some ideas of where I'm going to take this story for the next chapter. Might take a little time because I have other projects on my plate but, I am always turning back to it because it's a way to get writing practice and some fun.

So, bear with me and I'll make sure to bring you good folk some more soon. :wink:

Glad you dig it. I didn't know there was a website specifically made for DMC fanfiction. Might have to check that out.

Seems like a scene from Devil May Cry to me. The tone and feel is definitely there.

There are some prominent, even confusing punctuation mistakes littered around the place...but I'm an word-bird in my spare time, so I kind of look for that kind of things.

Looking back on it, I can see where I could have reworked it yet again but alas, these fanfiction ventures are really just stuff for funzies. Kind of the result of late night sessions in between my art commissions and other writing projects like my novels. I'll make sure to crack down on the proofreading for the next chapter.

I sort of feel ashamed how rusty I've gotten when it comes to writing. In school I use to win contest and my English teacher is the one who encouraged me to be an English teacher or novelist. Both I'm still aiming for but, life throws us curve balls and stress really can wear down talents. This fanfiction is part of me trying to get back in the swing of things.

But at least people are enjoying what I came up with. That makes me happy.

DMC fanfiction has iver 5,000 stories chancey. I am reading one for a long time, it has 91 chaoters with like 300k words

I actually write fanfiction as sort of "long-term practice" for becoming a novelist later on. The most difficult part for me isn't really brushing up on punctuation or proof-reading...it's just sheer length. I write each chapter over a span of weeks, and despite that, they always turn out TOO ****ING LONG. That's something I fix before I write an actual novel...nobody in this day and age is going to have the patience to sit through a written work that spans the length and thickness of Gone with the Wind.

:facepalm: ...sorry... just some of the comments are... :facepalm:

I have a few observations.

1. Is Tony meant to be Scottish? When he called Dante 'lad', my mind just automatically went 'whuuuump Scottish accent initiated'. Or is it just me getting the slang mixed up? I'm so confused

2. Underground fight clubs RULE YO! Did you steal that from me? No, really, did you? (I'm just sorta kinda kidding)

3. I loved the punchlines. Good descriptions, too.

4. lolololol Dante got owned. LOLOLOLOL

Dude, you can't do worse than Twilight, or any spin-off/inspired by Twilight novel. If the braindead can read Twilight, you can be sure the real bookworms will read your work.

1. I never meant for Tony to come off as Scottish. In my head he's just an older guy that tosses in those kind of slang terms for the hell of it really. Later in the story I was going to shed some light on Tony and Dante's relationship. One where Tony is kind of like a surrogate father figure to him. Even Mischa will have more to her character. She's not just there for a punchline.

2. I've loved the idea of underground fight clubs ever since I saw for the first time what I consider one of the greatest movies ever made, Fight Club. Plus, I remember reading in Ninja Theory's developer diaries about the inclusion of a opening cutscene to DmC that would have had Dante participate in an underground boxing match. Kind of like when Wolverine appeared in the first X-Men movie. I always thought that would have made an interesting little bit.

3. Glad you enjoyed the humor. I also felt good about it and I love working with characters that can provide witty and humorous banter for some good old fashioned comic relief. Not just that cheese humor either. I've always wished Devil May Cry could be funnier with the jokes, but I chuckled more at things that were never meant to be funny.

Thanks a lot man. Started working on some rough drafts for Mission 2. Stay tuned!

I like the fact that there isn't much exposition and you can still pace the story pretty decently. Your prose is surprisingly pretty good than many fanfictions i have read. Are you sure you haven't wrote for a while?

As for the dialogues they are very much Devil May Cry. I'll have to be honest that it's pretty cheesy as the series but it's part of it's charm right? I'm looking forward for your own interpretation of Vergil if you decided to continue this one further.

.nobody in this day and age is going to have the patience to sit through a written work that spans the length and thickness of Gone with the Wind.

I'd probably would. I was able to sit through the Malazan books and The Wheel of Time series though i'm close of dropping the latter when Robert Jordan died.

I have my own interpretation of Vergil as well as Sparda, but don't expect them any time soon. This particular story I'm working on right now is its own tale. I have my own original villain and characters I will use for this for Dante to handle all while building the world.

I want to approach this in a fashion that's, hmmm how can I describe it, kind of like the Marvel cinematic Universe came on the scene before they made Avengers. I'm not saying I'm building DMC Avengers but, as far as Dante's concerned, as of right now, he is the only cambion in existence and just makes a living doing what he does in a world where everybody's got their own agenda.

DMC has always relied way too much on the "destiny" trope tying everything back with his bloodline basically. I want to try and avoid that and just have a world of characters that live and do their own things but occasionally, just so happen to cross paths.

I'm a big character guy more than anything. I want these characters to be their own characters. Not all just caught up in some Sparda conspiracy yet again because DMC just can't think of any other plot device but him.

Glad I'm getting some good feedback though. Giving me the motivation to continue and work to make this story even better. I've already got a general idea of where I'm taking this with Mission 2. Just still some things are changing and being reworked and I'm trying to improve it as it goes on. I felt pretty good about this pilot chapter though myself.
