Username: coconabanana & slashy_lady
Genre (het, slash, gen, etc): slash, and this is one big cliché romcom
Pairing(s)/Character(s): Arthur/Eames
Current word count: around 13.000 words, I haven't checked in with my co-writer since she's still writing her parts.

What you like about your story: The process of writing it together. And the story is about how an established relationship suffers and threatens to fall apart because each party holds a secret that they never share with each other even after five years of living together. It takes more on the difficult part of maintaining the relationship, trying to make things right again, and not just fluffy romance.

What you dislike about your story: The storyline is influenced too heavily on the movie it’s based on (Mr.& Mrs. Smith) and sometimes I am worried that no one would want to read a monster fic that’s practically copying the movie storyline (and then there’s the fact that there’s already another fic that’s using the same premise but not really). I’ll only earn zero point on creativity and originality =____=.

Anything else?: Rant? See the ‘Dislike’ option above. And we’ve just decided to work on this together (last week) instead of letting me single-handedly destroy the good premise. At least I could finally work on the meagre 5k words into 13k in a week time. Hopefully we can finish it in time for the rough draft deadline.
