Synopsis

These are the tales of two cat burglars, partners in crime all their lives, struggling to fit into a world that won't offer them even a moment of security or peace. But what if someone beyond this cruel world could offer them a gift? The chance to revitalize their lives, a single moment to gaze deep within themselves and not only see what it is they truly desire, but to chase that dream? To forge their bodies anew to allow their minds peace at last, as their true selves... With the seal upon my prison weakening, I reach out to those souls in need and ask of thee...

Will you accept Ascension?

    Status: chapter 73 – spiteful spirits

    This story is amazing, you are going to fall in love with the characters, you'll hate that you love some of them, and you Will Cry. That's a threat and a promise. This is the queer trans furry story that you'll ever read. Warning: If you aren't trans, gay, or furry coming into this story, you might find that you are when leaving. So have fun!

    I confess that I wasn't expecting much out of a story about trans furry cat burglars other than a fun time.   And this story does deliver on that, but it also hits a lot more deeply than I thought it would.   The trials that Cat and Fox deal with are very real to the trans community in general, such things as Fox dealing with the shadow, or the ones who Geppette sheltered, all of that is very well done.   I so badly would love to have a Goddess call me her daughter, that scene was so beautiful it brought tears.

    And then there are the characters, quirky and more complex than first appearances, as well as a general optimism that differences can be overcome and enemies can become friends.   The fights are amazingly creative, although I do have to admit that the Janus fight simply baffled me.    The story has me quite intrigued where all of this will end up.

    We feel we would be doing this story a massive disservice by not making an account on here and sharing at least some of our thoughts on it so here goes:Ascension: Tales of Twin Tails is the best piece of fiction we have ever experienced and likely will experience in a very long time. This book has touched us in such a deep and impactful way that we're probably not going to be the same again after reading it. All throughout the story there we're moments that left us with a warm glowing feeling of hope, or left a deep pit of despair in our gut. We were really in awe at points when the

    Spoiler

    way the narrative itself was really being played with (especially at Chapter 74 and Chapter 85, both of these were SO CLEVER AND CREATIVE!!!)

    We have to commend the way locales are described as well. Whenever a new location was introduced we were able to get such a vivid image in our mind from the description (So much so I kinda wish I could paint to get those vivid images onto a canvas). Same applies to more specific scenes as well, both the mundane and action packed. The fight scenes especially had such a nice flow to them. Shoutout to
    Spoiler

    the fight with Minhocão in Chapter 39 and particularly the fight between Cat and Mx. Neptune in Chapter 67 for not only carrying the "Fighting to the rhythm of your soul" theme so triumphantly, but also featuring music diagetically in the fight!! For the latter of the two fights we put on Vs. SAYU to listen to while we read through the chapter, and switched to the rock version once Cat and Niamh dueted into Sol! (As a quick aside, this got us to play No Straight Roads which we finished today!)

    [collapse]
    A quick note about the humour. At several points in the story we found ourselves having more than a chortle at some of the jokes. There was some really great comedic moments interspersed in the chapters. We don't think that we're gonna be able to hear "It's ya boy!" without picturing Zee bursting through a door and going f**k, it's our boy for the foreseeble future. Shall we talk about characters? Lets talk characters. First and foremost, we adore the main cast so much. Every single one of them are so deep and compelling, and seeing their stories playout over the course of the book and how much they grow and change is really enjoyable and entertaining to experience.
    Spoiler

    Fox in particular for us is very relatable, both from her journey in accepting herself to accepting the other part of herself in Violet (And her feral fox form maybe giving us some θΔ thoughts). Our favourite of the bunch though has to be Coyotl. Something about characters with tragic pasts really pulls on our heartstrings and gets us tearing up. Which we did. Quite emotionally. At chapter 81 in particular. We're crying again just thinking about them, goddess damn this chimera for getting to us so much.

    When we finished this book we were left with a slight bittersweet feeling. A feeling similar to saying goodbye to a friend for a long time or leaving an event you just made some very strong and lasting memories at. The ending felt like a goodbye, a farewell to friends who we'd followed on their journey of realising their true selves. We really didn't want this book to come to an end, to say goodbye to all the characters and leave a world that was so full of hope. So full of love. Full of joy and acceptance and magic and has left us with such a warm feeling in our hearts. We're gonna miss these characters and this world so much.

    Thank you, from the bottom of our heart, for writing this. It means so much to us and we're gonna treasure the memories we made while reading it for the rest of our lives.cosmoSys

    I made a account just to say how much I love this story. I read this a year or two ago when I was haven't this fear that I wasn't actually trans, or even queer. Reading this got rid of those doubts completely. I've never related to so many characters before (I think I've gotten gender envy from at least 4 characters), and when I say I cried several times during the late portions of the story, I mean I was fully sobbing. This story is amazing. If you're queer, trans, plural, therian, or all of the above this is required reading. I'm gonna go reread this after posting this review

    This is a wonderful story, and well worth the read! The musical magic system is brilliant, and the way the characters grow and change throughout the story is truly heartwarming. The ways the characters’ struggles, both internal and external, were written make the characters feel real in ways I haven’t encountered very often. Some parts of the writing are a little confusing, but it’s clear that this is an intentional attempt at conveying how confusing the situations were for the characters in them, which I think worked out quite well. All in all, I couldn’t recommend this story enough!

    I don't often sit down and write reviews. I find it hard to express into words what I feel. I think it says something, then, that I'm writing this now.

    I have a lot to relate to the characters in this story. I'm a plural transfemme furry (?) that suffers deeply from depression. This story... it hurt to read, because the envy and empathy I felt towards these characters, over their struggles to find themselves and their relationships with each other, their losses and their triumphs. It hurt on a deep, personal level. It reminded me so much of what I want from my life, so much so I have bookmarked 4 chapters to go back and reread, when I wonder why I bother with  trying to find romance and love. 

    This is not a happy story. It is, better, a hopeful story. The type of story that reminds me there is hope out there still. There is potential for people to do better, to be better. There is a chance at a better life for all. We are able to do so much, but if we continue to tear each other down in an attempt to climb to the top, we never will.
