May. 25th, 2011 06:15 pmTwitter has decided not to show me my reading list today, which is very exciting, and also means I haven't been on Twitter all day because there's no point if that part of it is, you know, not working. It is very disconcerting! I have gotten really used to having Twitter there all the time, somewhere for me to whine or make snide comments or drop teasing hints about what I'm writing. I feel kind of cut off from the world, which is a strange feeling.
I am still working on my fic-I-am-not-talking-(much)-about, which has turned into one of those mostly-OC self-indulgent fics like The Coastwise Lights or Four Things Greater. Although there are more canon characters than in Coastwise! There are a whole TWO canon characters in this fic. Beat that, huh? (Actually, when it comes to my fic...that is a whole two more canon characters than are in some chapters of Dust, let's be honest.)
Anyway, I feel like I'm writing something naval every summer, which is maybe a sign in my head that it is actually summer? Only I have to relearn all the ship terms every year, which led me last night to freaking out for a good half hour to hour because I couldn't figure out what the fuck a certain deck was called, and by the time I finally figured out what it might be called on an AoS ship, I realized that wouldn't work because...Narnia. No guns. No gundecks. At which point I just threw up my hands and went, "IT IS A GODDAMN AERIAL CARRIER WITH GRIFFINS IN A MEDIEVAL-LITE FANTASY WORLD IT DOES NOT FUCKING MATTER," and made up a name, and went on with the story.
I really feel like there should be a threesome somewhere in the middle of this story, just based on some of the emotional dynamics, but that seems unlikely to happen because (1) I have no inclination to write sex right now, and have not had any for the past few months and (2) it is completely unnecessary for the story. Also, considerably less importantly, it might contradict something in Warsverse canon, but I don't think so and I don't...actually want to write it? Just, you know, weird emotional dynamics. (These are the same ones that lead to me going PETER AND OSUMARE AND FIORENZA ARE SO MARRIED WTF, in case you were wondering who I was talking about.)
So far in this story we have: drool on Peter's crown, a monkey in a brocade vest, several burning ships, bats, a silver tea set, and a woman who is not related to Osumare. Oh, and vomit. Let's be honest, the better part of the first 1K is about vomit.
I am tempted to just throw that out there and go, "GUESS. GUESS WHAT THIS STORY IS ABOUT." (Well, if you want to...go ahead.)
