Experimenting

[wyvernofthelake]

Just came up with another triple crossover (insane crack fic) that would be a lot of fun to write.

Naturally... won't be posting anything anytime soon....

Not much to say for my other works, PN 7 progress is a slog, Crown 2 is almost done (I can feel it, I'm near the breakthrough point of it shifting over from bland to brilliant, but it's still probably a long ways off, unfortunately). That one Bleach fic? What Bleach fic? (joking... but it'll probably take me a long time to write that date, I'm horrid at romance)

Ever since I heard of Evil Author Day, I've been tempted to participate... I have a lot of really interesting wips that still entertain me when I go back to take a peek....

And then I completely forget to do it, whoops.

Maybe next year.

I have a confession... for PN I started working on chapter 8 instead of finishing chapter 7 because it was suddenly really easy to put myself in Gull's shoes for a bit (yay?).

On the plus side, I know where chapter 7 is going to end, so there's that!

Next chapter of BTCWF (which I'm just going to call Crown from now on) has been rewritten like 10 times and scrapped another 3, but hopefully I'm almost done with it and will finish it later this year, haha.

Not my brain doing literally everything it can to avoid actually working on the current chapter....

[wyvernofthelake]

Worked on a chapter -> sudden idea for other chapter of other series -> worked on that chapter for that other series -> realized I remember nothing about the previous chapters aside from vague impressions -> realized that actually that's a persistent issue for everything I'm working on right now-

Now I have to reread everything =.=;;

[wyvernofthelake]

AHA! I found a typo!!!

And some weird spacing that doesn't show up anywhere but the published version, so I'm not going to even try to fix that, lol.

I will probably be writing and releasing a (nother) crack bleach ship fic soon, mostly because there's a rarepair event happening soon... and only partially because my writing recently has been so awful I need some help jumpstarting it (and what better way than a deadline?)

In other news, worked some on Cafe (probably still not releasing that anytime soon), worked some on PN, rolled new ideas for how to do that BtC chapter around my head, and also wrote a huge amount of a new fic.

Unfortunately for me, the huge amount I wrote for the new fic is all in the mid-to-late arcs and so it will take me a million years to get that far.

Hopefully this new bleach fic will also help me finish my previous bleach fic.

... I just wrote and lost over 2k words TWICE over the last few hours, I'm so annoyed. (The app I was using was having some issues and kept lagging so hard it lost data because of course it did....)

On the plus side, I wrote all of those scenes twice, so I should hopefully have a much better idea of what to write this time (?)

[wyvernofthelake]

I... am in some very niche fandoms that very few people know about.

But watch me make new wips based on those instead of being able to finish my three half-finished chapters anyway, LOL

(the fics nobody ever asked for, really)

More seriously, writer's block is annoying.... I might need to cut the next chapter of Crown (BtC) in half so I have more time to fix it up and cement the future plot points, and also I have all the ideas for PN but haven't actually written them down yet;;;;

And that one incomplete bleach fanfic. I should finish the next chapter.... At some point. Worst part is that I've already finished the last chapter, it's just the middle chapter that needs to be written....

That's all for now, wish me luck! ^^

[wyvernofthelake]

Realized I never said anything about this, but... eh, might as well? For the record, I have about a million backups of all of my fics, so if ao3 ever goes down (or if my work is ever taken down), I'll be able to republish them wherever I feel like doing so.

Sorry for the long absence, got sucked back into a fandom I left a long time ago because I was tired of the source material (a game) being so greedy (in terms of money).... The fanfics people are writing for it these days are so interesting! I feel like I've been waiting years for this, haha.... I might get back into the fandom just to continue enjoying the fics (but... not sure if me being tempted to redownload the game is a good thing)

As for Undertale.... So many good fics are out!!!! I'm so happy.... But also it's reminding me that I still haven't completely gotten past my writer's block yet with those chapters I'm trying to fix up for publishing.... I hope to get those out soon(er than december, lol) ^^

Anyway, yeah, that's what I've been up to, for anyone wondering: trying to get past my writer's block that sprung up like a zombie to try and kill me hahaha

I'm going to try and finish up a few more chapters of those before I get around to the other wips I've been sitting on for a while.... I really want to get to the interesting parts of my current fics (the drama! the action! the angst!)

Also one of the UT fics I was reading had some art of the skele bois where they were branching out into other clothing choices and I feel inspired! Might sketch out some ideas for that, too, though I'm not great at clothing designs haha (google images please help me...)

We'll see how it goes, though! ^^

(also if anyone wants to send me a suggestion about if I should pick the darker route or not for one of my fics, feel free to send an ask w/ that opinion!)

[wyvernofthelake]

Okay, the reason you guys don't have the next chapter yet is because I realized chapter two needs fixing and could, honestly? Be way better than it is right now.

Sorry about that, probably a longer wait time.... ^^;;

PN hopefully will be right after (or maybe a bit before) the release of that chapter.

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

Published a new fic!

Undertale x Iron Man/Marvel Crossover (more of a reincarnation of one character into Undertale)

Darker themes than usual in this one, please proceed with caution!

I actually wrote 2 chapters for this one to try and talk myself out of the darker themes, but it backfired and now I have 2 chapters to publish. Next chapter will be released in a few days to a week from now (whenever I remember).

One of my favorite fanfic authors just posted a completely self-indulgent work with minimal adjustments to avoid cliches, and I'm really considering doing that, too. Just to help get rid of my writer's block (and the silly little plot bunnies I caught that refuse to stand nicely in a row).

[wyvernofthelake]

Hey guys,

I'm really sorry to anyone who was looking forward to more of Café, but in light of recent events I will be postponing posting that chapter update as I feel I need to overhaul a few character roles.

Yes, I know I was writing about the characters and not the CCs, but I feel uncomfortable continuing with my original plan as is, right now. I will not be abandoning the fic, just... changing some things.

As for the next update, I will probably just resume with some of my other wips, and possibly get the next PN chapter up and running.

[wyvernofthelake]

Actually managed to get some more work done on my bleach fic, hopefully I'll be able to finish that one sometime this year?

For the Cafe chapter, about... half of it is done, though it may end up much longer than I'm currently expecting.
