I am having a bit of trouble with some fics I am writing.
lookturtles is a good friend, and is pep-talking me. Yes, we do use this much capslock on a regular basis.
bree_black : Also, I AM RETIRING FROM FANFICTION FOREVER.
lookturtles : Nooooooooo.
bree_black : BUT I WILL NEVER BE AS GOOD AS ANYONE ELSE. I CAN'T WRITE PORN, DUDE. AND THE PG-13 ANGST-SCHMOOP MARKET IS ALREADY COVERED BY PEOPLE BETTER THAN ME.
lookturtles : YOU CAN WRITE PORN! YOU WROTE THAT DEAN/CAS/SAM ONE. THAT WAS HOT! AND THIS OTHER ONE IS GOOD, YOU JUST NEED TO BE A BIT LESS SELF-CONSCIOUS.
bree_black : BUT I WILL NEVER BE UNSELF-CONSCIOUS. HOW CAN YOU *WORK* ON NOT BEING SELF-CONSCIOUS?
Then we argued about whether or not people are obsessed with porn. And then:
bree_black : I'm gonna write a fic where Cas suggests Dean should get over Sam's death, so Dean stabs him with the angel-killing sword. That will be my goodbye to fanfic.
lookturtles : ...that is potentially the emo-est thing I have ever read.
bree_black : Good. I AM SO EMO.
Of course I am not actually retiring from fan fic. This is merely a demonstration of my neurotic nature as I approach deadlines, and of
lookturtles' patience. Also, I'm pretty sure I'm projecting all my fear and anxiety about my failed relationship onto my fic. And I've had so much caffeine and cough syrup today.
I'm really only posting this for documentation's sake, so if I ever write the fic where Dean stabs Cas to death, you'll know where it came from.
