I thought I would take a moment to mention that I have finally, finally finished one of my far-too-many writing tasks.
The edited and expanded version of
What Isn't Broken (Can Still Be Fixed) is now up on ff.net, along with its two sidefics. I will also be posting the revised version and sidefics to the AO3 as soon as I finish coding in the damned italics... so, maybe tonight, maybe tomorrow night; it depends on my boredom tolerance levels.
[ETA: And
here is the AO3 version! I do like their series function; it keeps related stories together without needing to post sidefics as subsidiary chapters of a one-shot.]
Also, fair warning: if you thought the original one-shot was long at 21,000 words, I must in all honesty tell you that the revised version is now 24,500 words. So yeah.
...
Look, I have never claimed not to run on at the word processor!
Anyway, the main changes are designed to fix typos, remove extraneous commas, smooth out some of my worst stylistic quirks, include Sasuke's interactions with more canon characters, better foreshadow the NaruSasu relationship, and fill in the time jump between Sasuke's start at the academy and the climactic scenes.
Now I am off to code italics. *headdesk*
