#0, Audio Stories Categories
Posted by Offsides on Apr-02-14 at 10:46 AM
I was browsing around the audio stories today and I noticed a new category that I can't quite figure out: "DA". So, out of curiosity, what does it stand for? It seems to be the various stories that revolve around Azula, but since I'm unfamiliar with the source I'm drawing a blank...

Thanks,
Offsides

I believe it stands for Desolation Angel, the umbrella title for Azula stories in UF.

Oh, right, I was going to tidy that tree up during spring break and then I ended up doing other things. I'll put it back on my to-do list.

"DA" is indeed short for Desolation Angel; whenever I finally finish the last piece of the story arc, the whole Azula "introductory cycle" (the minis and the Mojave H2G2) will be omnibus'd under that title.

Thanks for the info. Out of curiosity, where's that from?

It's a Jack Kerouac reference. Desolation Angels was one of his kinda-sorta-autobiographical novels, in which the protagonist experiences a personal revelation of sorts while alone on a mountain. (That is an absurd oversimplification, of course, but it's Kerouac - you can't really summarize Kerouac in fewer words than Kerouac used. Or at least I can't. :)
