It's too cold to write fanfiction!
-D: . . . All right, you've got me there.-
-M: Is it EVER going to be spring?-
This weekend's supposed to be better. I'm not holding my breath, though.
-TD: I believe my next invention will be an umbrella with heating coils. After all, as we can well see, most rain is usually cold.-
That might be tricky. Lot of fire risk there.
-TD: I know, but I'm sure I can figure it out eventually.-
-OD: In the meantime, we have plenty of fire extinguishers, from every era imaginable.-
From bucket of water to pen-sized device that puts the fire out in seconds?
-OD: *tentacles nodnod as he chuckles* Essentially, yes.-
I haven't been totally slacking off, you know. I got in a half-page of "From the Ashes Reborn," and I've succumbed to temptation and am rewriting my key scene from "Tomorrow Came Again." Mostly because I'm in the mood, and that scene DESPERATELY needs rewriting.
-D: I suppose it's good to get attention.-
I've also forgotten which story comes next chronologically anyway, so this buys me some time to do the purple notebook thing. We all know I'm lying, of course. . . .
-VD: Well, it does keep all the random scraps in one place. We'll give it that.-
Heh, true.
-VD2: How's "What Lies Within" coming?-
Slowly. I'm starting to think it'll be an extended one-shot instead of a chapter story. Two-parter at the most.
-DW: Nothing wrong with that. "True Hero" works the same way.-
I know, I was just expecting something longer. Though this definitely means it won't be ready in time for the challenge. Good thing I had that drabbles88 to fall back on.
-VD2: Incidentally, when are you putting those on your website?-
I'm trying to wait until I have them all written, so I can do them chronologically by page, and also sort them by universe. I still owe a few of you second drabbles88s.
-VD2: That's true. Me, OckDoc, and DocWolf, I believe. The rest you've written at least two for.-
-D: And more, in some cases. You seem to like your NonTrilogy flash fics.-
Heh. I think it's a case of I get to play with you and your family before I can even think of you in the regular storyline at the moment.
-HD: *eyes Doc* And I thought her Wonderland was planned out -- you're one huge sprawling universe, aren't you?-
-D: To be fair, I was the first universe she ever wrote.-
-RPD: Any particular reason why?-
I'm just weird like that, frankly.
-VD: Good enough for us.-
Anyway, no Sims today, but we do have a
eurekasims update from yesterday. I swear, Eureka has the rainest weather I've ever seen.
-RPD: Your neighborhoods DO seem prone to precipitation, don't they?-
I know. I like it, of course, but it's still rather surprising.
*sudden door slam*
What? Which one of you?
*Victor marches in, looking uncharacteristically steamed*
-TTV: *points finger at me* You're writing "Til Death Do Us Part."-
O.o You WANT me to write the Victor/Victoria suicide fic.
-HD: Bad day with the in-laws?-
-TTV: Oh, the usual -- her parents being condescending, my parents bragging and bowing, all of them sniping at each other while poor Victoria and I look for a way to exit gracefully.-
-VM: *doubtfully* Your parents and hers must have SOMETHING to talk about.-
-TTV: They do agree on one thing -- that I am an utter failure. *going red* I'm glad they don't talk that way about Victoria, but a man can only take so much! And they have Pastor Galswells over a lot, which doesn't help matters. . . . *suddenly exploding* AND IF THAT MAN SAYS ONE MORE WORD ABOUT ME BEING CURSED BY GOD -- JUST ONE MORE WORD -- I'M GOING TO SHOVE A FORK UP HIS EVER-LOVING ASS!!-
*all stare*
*Victor, suddenly horrified, slaps hands over mouth*
. . . Whoa.
-TD: Not BAD, Victor. Not BAD.-
-OD: *pretends to wipe a tear out of his eye* Our little Victor's all grown up.-
-TTV: *head in heads* Oh good Lord, did I really say the word ass?-
You did, you did! And you threatened him with a fork! It was beautiful, Victor! Sheer poetry!
-HD: *grinning* You've been spending far too much time with us. Come here and have a cup of tea.-
-TTV: I'll take a rain check -- I'm going to go play piano for a good long while. *leaves, twisting his tie madly*-
-VDM: Want any of us to go with him?-
Leave him alone for now, he's probably really embarrassed. Though it wouldn't hurt if you stopped by later, I bet.
-VD: *starting to chuckle* 'Ever-loving ass.' I'm sorry, but coming from him, that's hilarious.-
Damn straight. :p Anyway, I suppose I should take some time to poke at my fanfic and maybe do a little sketching. Hasta-la-bye-bye!
-D: *thwaps upside the head* Bad author! No quoting Biff!-
