So I've been doing writing for school, right? I have no fucking idea what triggered this super freaking retarded idea so I might as well give a bit of backstory.
A few years ago, I used to play a little game called Starcraft, I wasn't too good at it, but it was fun playing with my two friends, they played Terran (human) and Zerg(Xenomorph-like aliens), while I had fun with playing Protoss (I have no idea how to describe them, google probably would help.) Anyway, I got a bit enamored with the Protoss in general, and as a direct result, made a roleplay character that was one, his name is Aeneas and I haven't really done much with him for a while.
Jump ahead to now. Starcraft 2 was announced a year or two ago, which got me hyped up for a bit. (I haven't bothered rechecking the site, I am currently disappointed with Activision-Blizzard right now for their moneygrubbing ways.) A few days ago, I suddenly got the not-so brilliant idea to revive my old fancharacter from the depths of obscurity, and write a story about him, what's worse, I was going to write a RELATIONSHIP story with a tragic end involving a Terran. Now all of a sudden, my giddiness gives way to warning lights as I am notoriously unable to finish fanfics when I start, and I had never been in a relationship before as such I would be going into this completely blind and would probably end up screwing everything up.
So now, I'm completely at my wit's end here on deciding whether or not to give this one a go, I'm promising myself that if I Do in fact write it, there will be no smut, not at all, because I think I have gotten past the part where Smut gives any real thrills. I just want to tell a story of star-crossed lovers who just so happen to be in the Starcraft universe. Now I'm sure Romance has pretty much almost no place in such a universe, but if Jim Raynor can still love Sarah Kerrigan even after she's infested (ZOMG SPOILARS!) Why can't a no name Protoss love a no name Terran?
Bah,I just needed to get that off my chest, feel free to disregard this post.
