RE: fortune favors the brave (bob fic)

In recent months, I’ve began my first college semester, finished a college semester and started my second. It has been a very eye-opening experience as well as a rewarding one; being able to have the opportunity in my life, getting to learn something while going there and getting involved in things I probably wouldn’t be involved in, if it weren’t for my university.

Yet, within the past few months, I have come to the realization that the time I had, possibly a year ago, is not the time I have now. I’m allotting a majority of my time currently to the semester and my major, and the other portion of the time is going to my personal life. And so, after talking with an absolutely wonderful human being, who helped me work through a few things and think to myself a bit, I’ve come to the conclusion that, with my current situation and goals for my schooling and future, Fortune Favors the Brave will not be attainable at this time.

FFTB is a fic I’ve had in my mind for years since starting writing for the fandom in late 2018, but I’ve grown from that time period and have started accepting that things in my life are going to have more importance than other things and realizing that you’re not capable of all these different things is something that is…essentially, okay, and more than likely should be one of the many realizations that you come to in your lifetime.

I’m someone who really struggles with not following through and finishing something; I’m all about starting, pushing through, and finishing my intended project or goal — and so I realized that for me, it makes this really hard. But, recognizing that maybe it just isn’t the right time for this specific goal, or that there are more important aspects in life to focus on, is something that is okay.

Being completely transparent, I have thought for months about this because I knew ultimately, even if I did start — I most likely wouldn’t finish. I didn’t want to let people down for all the effort they put into gifting OCs and creating these wonderful characters who over the past year I’ve worked with and written with, and knowing I won’t be able to write their story, genuinely made me very sad. But, I have a future ahead of me that I know will be important to me, and I know I will not have enough time for proper dedication to these characters and that dedication they ultimately deserve.

Tagged below are all the absolutely lovely human beings who submitted OCs for this story idea to me — as I am unable to do what I intended to do, these characters are back in your hands! :) Whether you want to take them and start up a story, put them to rest on the shelf, take part in @mercurygray ‘s Blind Date Prompts (HIGHLY rec!! I am doing it again because it was *super fun* last year!), or gift them to someone else, they are all yours! (and of course, I am without a doubt offering up a small option; cameos in a small fic idea I’ve been working with, is something I’m always down for for these characters as well if you want to work them into fic somehow!)

wonderful humans below :D

My ambition that pushed me towards this story and concept and idea, excited me more than anything, and I thank you all for taking the time to submit absolutely wonderful original characters. It meant the world to me and still does to know all of you submitted characters like you did - thank you for that experience!! :)

If you have any questions, any of you are more than welcome to come into my askbox or message box to talk, if you want to ask me questions, or understand more why I made the decision I did; I am more than willing. And any of you who are reading this and had been interested, you are more than welcome as well into messages or my askbox. I am someone who isn’t a fan of letting others down, so in general, I am sorry this fic won’t be completed or accomplished! Maybe the future withholds more time! :)

Meanwhile, my current plans revolve around finishing Landslide up as that story I started as a senior in hs and am very close to finishing. As far as afterwards, I have a few ideas of shorter fics I can possibly do that won’t require as much work as my previous fics and such, but will still keep me writing and creating (I’m a STEM major and having that creativity and artistic outlet is a WELCOME balance to the science world!).

Accepting that sometimes, you may not be able to get something done necessarily because of those more important aspects of life is okay; whether it’s because you lost interest, have more important dedications to focus on or think you have another idea that’s better - that’s okay! It’s all about what you enjoy doing and what you feel ultimately will be most beneficial for you in the short term and/or long term! I’m still slowly accepting it, more than anything, but I know putting this message out will help relieve some of those stresses I had.

Thank you to every single one of you who submitted an OC, an idea or even just in general, gave hype towards FFTB. It means a lot; this fandom has truly showed me how supportive people are even in little communities. Maybe in another time, this fic will be accomplished! Thank you all! <3

Goodmorning!! Sarap maligo pag nakapag kape na hmft!

[wexhappyxfew]

restocking at the farm market has helped with my writing so much because i zone out to a focus point where i’m just falling into a routine and my brain can do whatever it wants — and so it brainstorms and does stuff for writing that help me out a little while later. AND SO — BC OF THE CHAOTIC WEEKEND — LETS JUST SAY — many ideas have been thought and developed during that span of time and i’m very excited about fortune favors the brave and where i’m hoping to take it!!!
