today's chapter had me screaming, and one of my friends posted a series of inarizaki flashfics which was really amazing and made me want to continue with my miyamiya fic (i'm still holding out on it, until i get more osamu characterisation). 

I decided to publish the Dateko fic today! Preorders for the zine close tomorrow so it seemed like a good way of getting the word out lmao. Also it was really collecting dust in my folder, so might as well. Reception has been quiet but feedback is good. I'm pleased, cos I ran through a bunch of ideas (and  screwed up like, 4 drafts) before I settled on that one.

put Timeless #8 on hold to pick up where I left off on #2.5! i'm glad I took a break from #2.5 previously to work on #8, cos now that I'm looking at it with fresh eyes, the block isn't as bad as it was previously. hopefully this break helps me with getting back into #8 too! 

it's coming along well so far, a lot of worldbuilding once again, and introduction of another problem (that tbh, even I don't know how to fix).  

was telling Mel that this is the 'time travel duck-it-up' that they tagged me in the other day :V well, can't expect things to always go according to keikaku, right? and messing with space and time is dangerous. Yaku of all people would know. 

just because I haven't written the consequences of When Time Travel Goes Wrong... doesn't mean it always goes right :^) 

I started Timeless #2.5 aiming for it to be a domestic fluff kind of fic, maybe an interlude or pause between centuries. But then I wondered: I've already done domestic scenes enough in ATA (so much so that I was running out of ideas, I'm that undomestic), and I've got a domestic fluff standalone series already. I needed something to put a spin on domestic fluff... which hence 2.5 ended up in a "Runaways" kinda situation lmao.

Runaways was a fic where the muse ran in the opposite direction of the prompt, and 2.5 is turning out similarly. It's not a bad thing, though!

Domestic fluff would have brought in the hits and kudos, but with where 2.5 is going, I get to write fluff while casually building my universe without too much brainwork :3

i'm thinking of making characterisation notes on here. Would be pretty interesting to get all the brainwork that comes with characterisation out on paper, I mean text. I sometimes forget exactly how much time and subconscious work is put into getting into a character's mind - of course, practice makes easier because they become second nature, but then comes the challenge of writing them differently but keeping them the same.

I'm quite sure my office mouse is to blame for my wrist pains. It started hurting at work today again, so I'm going to put pain patches on it overnight and probably get a wrist guard tomorrow, ugh. It wasn't as bad as it was on Friday, though, so I just tried to take breaks between long messages and stuff.

I'm way too young to be having so many injuries!! My knees are bad enough as they are :/ bleurgh. 

Rolls off to bed.

writing out Timeless 2.5 on paper now (while Elly shoots me Nekoma feels and Kuroyaku and Yakunoya and Nationals feels - I can't believe she's making me choose between my ships even though I'm so obviously Kuroyaku-biased cos I'm still weak for Yakunoya), and it's... a practice in writing kisses physical interaction lmao *hides face*

I'm so bad (aka I cringe) at writing intimacy, so I'm gonna practice till it's better. though maybe I'll still cringe. reading is usually fine, but writing it... yells. then again, I was terrible at writing fluff (aka: had never written a fluff fic in ten years, and would cringe at writing it) until I wrote the Yakunoya fake dating AU, and since then I've... gone and gotten myself addicted to domestic fluff :v (very possibly due to all the domestic scenes in Ages...) but at least I know firsthand that practice makes perfect lmao so... technically... all I need to do is write more kissing.... but at the same time.... there could be so many other things to write...

was thinking about my 'fallback' option yesterday - what I instinctively write when faced with writer's block, or when starting a new original piece, or whatever - and it wasn't difficult to find at all: war. specifically, dystopian war.

two of my best ever original fiction pieces (written for creative writing class) were about dystopian wars; the favourite universe that I've written
for hq so far is a war+dystopian au (that I'm trying to combine with Runaways, which is also another war+dystopia au);  Runaways was written on a whim when I was asked to write a Kawashira fic; my Kawafuta 'crossfire' soulmate AU was also a war AU before it became a soulmate AU..... orz
