Yes, but I've discovered that fanficcing fanfic makes me queasy with terror, despite being very very fun at the same time! You would not want to be responsible for a Queasy Panda, would you?

I'm... kind of unreasonably invested in the original verse, but I would totally read a remix anyway because the combined power of yours and Jess's writing is epic and hella inspiring.

JESS! JESS! MIKEY IS STARING AT YOU!



You should probably write something before he gets boooored!! (This brilliant strategy may backfire slightly if I scare her off the internet forever, of course... *concern*)

Oh man, no, I love that. I adore that he's as epic in his own mind as he is through his followers' eyes. He also comes across as, um, slightly insane, which makes for fun times.

BUT YOU'RE SO GOOD AT IT.

Well we just need to poke her until she stops being reticent about it and the monstrosity is go, all over again (okay, I should probably stop being cruel, the lady has hideous block atm).

Well, Gabe has a messiah complex, that's kind of the core of his character as Jess was writing him.

jumpthesnark's been tempting me (with a nervous-making amount of success) to get me to co-write a bit more pre-story fic with her. I really can't overemphasis the terror factor though. If I didn't actually know y'all, I would be all over this. Hee!

Aww, that sucks. I've kind of got the opposite problem going on, where I've got three (four?) things in progress and can't frikkin' focus on any on them long enough to just finish. Grr.

No, exactly, that's why this inside-his-head view (have I mentioned how much I hate lacking the terminology to talk about writing properly?) is so fitting. And it sneakily ties in to canon and just a world of yes. You guys should write SO MUCH in this verse.

Btw if you two need backstory on Frank and Pete you have to ask Jess, not me. Like, email her or somesuch, yeah? Because that is her section.

Me too. I keep leaping from story to story like I have shiny objects waved in front of my face and I write one scene and then another and then I got "everything is angsty and dark, lighten up, cockface". I feel like I lost the ability to write anything nuanced, if I ever had it in the first place. All cartoons makes Derek a clumsy cunt.

Close-third. ;) Intimate third, I think, technically, because it's noteably skewed by his voice but isn't actually first person. *G* We have a whole story in this verse. It's scaaaary. Just exploded like a yeast bomb

Yup-yup... If I work up the courage to do it, I'll ask her. ;-)

Augh, apt analogy is painfully apt. At least I'm finished up with the trans!Mikey verse though in theory, so I don't have those epic moments of "Whoa, wait, does he have a dick in this one?" anymore. *snerk* (Also, hush your mouth, Guts was scarily nuanced, if you're looking for bandom examples.)

Man, it's sad having to admit that I don't even know what technical p.o.v. I write in. Which one is the "You walk down the hall, you look in the window, etc" one? That one freaks me out. *tangent* If you guys don't write this (pleasepleaseplease do?) promise me you'll at least tell the story in a point-form kind of way?? Quite willing to beg!

Oh for Pete's sake, it's JESS. She's not the scary one! I'm the scary one!

AHAHAHAHAAA WHAT. You. Hahah. <3

If the pronoun is "you" that's second-person. "You wake up alone again", right? Second-person. Haha. We have the notes. Well, Jess has the notes, and ... yeah. UNF.

Aw, it's not that I think you guys won't let me do it, I just... It's the same reason that I refrain from picking up things in antique shops. I tend to break beautiful things!

Eeeexcellent! Oh man, I'm wicked excited about this all over again! I COULD HAVE MORE STORY TO FANART!! *good writing mojo*

Oh now that's just silly, because you KNOW the argument about fanfic - however it turns out (and it's you, so I trust that it will be brilliant) it doesn't exactly harm the original!

YOU ALREADY HAVE A SNIPPET, GET TO IT!

Mrrr, no fair using logic on me...

First things first, a truly terrible pun occurred to me on the drive up and I just have to finish up drawing that first. X-D
