So - the first post-timeskip chapter of "(Nice Dream)" is finished! Not beta'd and not ready to be posted until I get chapter 20 done*, but - finished! And according to three different word counts, over 8,000 words. Uh. Yeah, I don't know how that happened. Is it better to have a long update or a short one after a hiatus? Because I really don't want to split this chapter, I'm just - really. How the hell did that chapter end up so long?
In the meantime, the "Kakashi is so done with Uchihas" story is up at
brief-transit and also
on the AO3! I'll probably post it to FF.net tomorrow, I'm just hesitating about it because I know I'll find something I want to edit and editing on FF.net is such a damn pain. Also starting soon will be another, chaptered side story that's basically a bunch of little scenes from the timeskip that aren't long enough to be worth posting separately. They're still fun, though! I promise! I meant to start posting them forever ago, but I kind of wanted to hold off till I was working seriously on the AU again, and - now I guess I am, so.
Now to work on chapter 20 and figure out whether Danzo should try to start some shit. Signs point to yes for various reasons, but exactly how is Danzo going to be an asshole this time? STAY TUNED.
(Thesis, thesis, what is thesis?! *gentle sobbing*)
*I believe I'll return to my previous schedule of not posting a chapter till the next one is finished. Yeah, it'd probably be better if I waited until I had ALL the chapters finished, like with my longer Marathon fics, but - I genuinely feel shitty about making the people who liked the story wait for over three years, and honestly, there's at least twelve chapters left in this thing, even with my usually conservative estimates.
