your semi-regular teamwork-related whining...
HOLY FUCK IT'S BEEN SIX MONTHS SINCE THE LAST TIME I ADDED TO TEAMWORK PROPER
WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME
WHY DID NO ONE WHACK ME WITH SHARP STICKS AND CHAINSAWS
SIX. MONTHS. DUDE.
... six months? really? I thought maybe three or four. It FELT like three or four. But six months? That's a half year! (gasp teh asuka knows how to math it up) Seriously??
I think the issue here is that once again I fell into a "oh hell, transition chapters, what do I put in it" because i had no real plot and it was too short otherwise. So then I started going "maybe i'll write sidefics for this time period" and then i was all "... but i'll have to post them with the actual chapter anyway because it's not big enough as is!!" and then i was all "okay but it's still DISJOINTED AS FUCK seriously when do they even happen, chronologically speaking, which one comes first? it makes no sense" and right back to the starting point.
And also of course FF7 and Detective Conan have been chewing on my brain. >__> I'm mostly blaming conan, because before it landed on me I didn't have that much trouble managing both teamwork and restore.
... okay, I also didn't have the zackbabies fic back then. And then Avatar popped up for a brief~ visit~. Um.
And now it's been so long I'm not sure how to write team seven IC anymore -- and more importantly I'm forgetting the specific teamworkverse voices the three of them have, and their assumptions and personal premises.
Also fuck it, that talk with Gaara is still needed to introduce a later plot point re:jinchuuriki in general, but I still hate writing Gaara and I STILL don't know if Other Plot Point (re: one jinchuuriki in particular) oughta be introduced now or what.
I want to skip over that fucking gap and go straight to the tournament, but if I do that it's guarantee I'll never write the in-between sidefics.
But as things are right now, not only i'm not writing the tournament, but i'm not writing the sidefics either, anyway.
Wahh. Wahh.
Anyway. Biggest issue, it's all Naruto POV right now and ... who is he again? I'm losing the feel of him. Between canonverse and teamworkverse and being several years older and the recent trauma and the insidious fanonclichenoes and the "who is this pod person you're writing about asuka", I'm totally lost. I hate Naruto POV. It's decided.
Maybe if the sidefics were other characters' POVs instead -- shit, that means I'd have to write GAARA.
... actually that might be an interesting challenge. Huh. >__>
... but the baby bulge sidefic I wrote is naruto POV!! Would I have to rewrite it??? D: D: D: But if I DONT't rewrite it then it would be unbalanced! Naruto already has a POV scene where he visits the kid in the hospital -- should I write everyone two scenes??? aaaaaaaaaaaaaa
aaaaa.
Why does writing *fanfic* make me so OCD. The structure of the overall fic is already so haphazardly constructed and rambly anyway. DX
Okay, done. As you were. >__>
