Late FG Works

As this year's Fair Game Week comes to a close, I want to mention some things I didn't get finished and give a status update for anyone interested :)

Day 6 Drawing - lines and flats done, needs shading still and other edits but should be done within a few days at the latest!

Stop-off chapter 3 - I am... so sad I do not have more of this written. It likely won't get done for a while, much like chapter 2 last year. I have enough to post a wip if no one minds being spoiled on how the plant lad ends up sticking around a lil longer yet >w>

Distraction final chapter - I was really on a roll w this one until writing was interrupted just as things were getting... Ahem. Good, as it were. Might be awhile before brain lets me get back to it, but I'll reblog the wip I posted for it.

Annnnd that's about it! I had designs on drawing something for Day 5, or maybe writing something new for Day 6, but alas. Maybe next time. Thank you to everyone who likes and reblogs my works, it means a lot to me! And thank you for showing the lads lots of love this week!!! <3

As I start physio for my wrist, I've been thinking now's a good time to reread some wips and decide which one I might try to work on first once I have less pain from all these exercises. I also thought it might be fun to do a poll to see which fics folks wanna see updated soonest:

Which Fair Game fic would you like to see updated first?

Take Root

Stop-Off

Distraction

Propaganda (read: current wip status) below the cut!

Take Root- the modern AU of two old men supporting each other and learning to grow around their scars. The bulk of chapter 17 is written. There is one small scene I need to add, and one other scene needs some serious editing before it is ready to post. We're hitting a big emotional beat in this one, so I want to get it right.

Ebb- feesh lad! aka the mer AU that wasn't supposed to become a chaptered fic, but alas Qrow decided to have some secrets that need time and trust to reveal. There is enough written to call it a chapter, but... I gotta figure out what's bothering me about it and fix it, along with general editing that needs doing. A fun little reveal in this one, plus a cagey bird who flusters a lot.

Stop-Off- the camping AU meet-cute featuring widdol Yang and Rubes (and their mom being a complete menace while dad is oblivious). Chapter 2 is about three quarters of the way written. It needs at least a scene at the end to finish out the day, with a little editing needed on what's already written. Cloves is having a bit of a crisis at the start of this one, followed by Qrow having one in the second half lmao.

Distraction- the two part hurt/comfort plus spice recovery fic. Very little written for the second and final chapter. It is going to require a delicate balance to keep the tone I want throughout those heated moments. Depending on the vibes, I could bang this out in a feverish trance or take forever on it- hard to say!

The campfire crackles loudly.

"Sorry, I thought-"

"My jacket…"

Both fall silent as they interrupt one another.

"...thanks," the man says at last, reaching a hand behind his head.

Feeling somewhat sheepish, Clover huffs a soft laugh. Leans down to pick up the extinguished article and hold it out toward its owner. "Hope it wasn't a favourite."

~In which Clover is a cyclist on his way to meet up with friends, and he happens to stop for the night at a campsite next to a certain Branwen and his family.
