WIP Wednesday Last Sentence You Wrote
Thank you so much for the tag @uncleasad!!!
Make a new post with the last sentence you wrote on your current WIP (treat this as a guideline, not a hard and fast rule!)
This week's post is a little different. Since I just covered the Season One Finale of Legends of Tomorrow yesterday, I'm going to finally announce the fic I've been planning!!! It's a rarepair ship fic between Kendra Saunders and Charlie, or as I like to call them, Fatebreaker. Set after Season Five in a timeline where Charlie never left the team, and Sara never got abducted by Gary, Kendra rejoins the team after her husband, Scythian Torvil, hits her. Charlie is immediately enamored with their mysterious new teammate, and they soon build a friendship that slowly becomes something more. The two ancient and newly mortal superheroes are forced to uncover uncomfortable truths about their pasts as they learn to accept themselves and find love in each other. And in the end, the two who have been running from fate for their entire very long lives may end up realizing that destiny can be a good thing- as long as you make it yourself.
The fic is called When Fate Is Gone, What's Left? and if you've been keeping up with my Legends rewatch posts, you'll know what that's a reference to. It's going to span four chapters, and I'll be posting them during the 20-week hiatus before my Season Two Rewatch starts on October 13th, most likely on Tuesdays. And this isn't the last sentence I wrote, because technically that was for a fandom I'm not posting about yet because I haven't finished the show, and it's not the last sentence from this fic, because that gives zero context 😅 But because I want this announcement post to be dramatic, it's not just one sentence either, so you can't be too mad at me. Here's a little scene I've written for one of the later chapters that will hopefully give you a good teaser for their dynamic and get you excited for this fic 🤭 Enjoy!
“I didn’t realize you were such a nerd.” “I’m not a nerd!” Charlie said. Kendra giggled. “I’m pretty sure you are. I mean, you like Star Trek, Supernatural, Shakespeare… those all seem pretty nerdy to me.” “Doesn’t make me a nerd,” they insisted, but they sounded much smaller and more uncertain this time. “It’s okay,” Kendra said, wrapping her arms around Charlie’s shoulders. Then she leaned in, her voice dropping ever so slightly. “I think nerds are sexy.” Charlie’s face was on fire. And if the gleam in Kendra’s eyes was anything to go by, she knew it. “Okay, fine. Just don’t tell the others. It’ll ruin my reputation.” “Your secret’s safe with me,” she smiled. Then she kissed them deeply, and all other sensations melted away.
Also!!! I will most likely be posting this fic on this blog, but I'll be posting updates and other things on my Legends of Tomorrow side blog, so please give me a follow there so you don't miss out! 🩵💜🩵
I'm passing this tag along to anyone who wants to join in! 🥰
