Why am I surprised that Jaejoong you would put Yoochun and Changmin as roommmates? :P

You know, sometimes I get sick of people giving Jaejoong the wonderful caring motherly role, but you didn't overdo it, so it's all good with me. And I like the Jaemin here. :)

I'm waiting to hear Junsu's (and Jaejoong's?) problems. And god, I love your writing cos it's very down-to-earth. Which hurts more but I can handle it. :|

[ephemeral_blue]

Me! It was totally Jaejoong who put them together, I promise! He told me too :)

I too can get really sick with how much of a mother's role Jaejoong is put into, practically to the point where he treats everyone like babies so I wanted to make him nurturing without it being overbearing. Ah the JaeMin, right now I'm on this huge JaeMin friendship kick and I kinda sorta love it lol.

Junsu and Jaejoong definitely have their own problems which will revealed soon :)

I'm glad you enjoyed it, I was really happy with the way this one came out, hopefully I screw up the rest of it LOL

[whosthat]

LMAO why screw up the rest?!

[ephemeral_blue]

Cause it took me forever to get this out and now... I have ideas about the rest it's just going to be the execution to not make it all campy and crap. I get insecure when I'm happy with one part that the other parts get really scary LOL

[whosthat]

Ah. I read it as you've written out the whole thing already. o_O -pats-

[ephemeral_blue]

You know I was considering not posting till it was fully complete but that probably means it would've taken forever.

Now that I've posted one part the guilt of time will push me to work on it more lol.

[whosthat]

I don't mind waiting for this, cos I want to read more of the Homin/Yoomin fic haha! :P

I'm curious though, how much do you write? Like, finish one chapter at one go or? And do you write regularly?

I recently got back into writing and all I can manage is less than one page on MSWord LOL. :x

[ephemeral_blue]

Oooh really? The HoMin/YooMin, that's totally scary for me. My YooMin is trying really hard to take control but right now even I don't know how it's going to end. lol

I tend to write in spurts. Sometimes I can write for a few hours straight and get something done within that time. Other times I'll write for a little then come back to it, sometimes it'll take me a couple days to finish, other times I'll start writing and then inspiration leaves completely.

Take this story for example, I started this way back in the middle of July and wrote a good chunk of it then, after that I'd open the document and maybe write a few paragraphs, change some things, when it's been a long time in between I change a lot sometimes and eventually I was able to finish it last night.

I think it's great you're starting to write again. What's your method?

[whosthat]

I'm thinking since it's Homin they'll probably be together at the end... but since it's you, I don't know. I can never imagine what you'll write next. And that's what I like. :D Hopefully you'll think of the ending soon!

Interesting~ I stopped writing fics years ago and began writing one-shots. (Although I think most people would label what I wrote as drabbles but ehhh it is final so it's a one-shot dammit lmao. :| Drabble's kind of like an unfinished idea to me.) So when I get the idea I'll jot it down, sort of map out how the entire thing would be and then write it.

I try to finish it at one go, if not the difference in mood would be obvious, and that upsets me a lot, haha. Then I'd edit when I've finished everything. I hate editing so much ugh -OCD-.

I'd show you what I've written but it's really nothing compared to yours. :z

[ephemeral_blue]

Perhaps I won't end it with a pairing at all LOL

It took me a very long time to start writing again. Years as well, but once I got in this fandom the fanfic bug started biting and well... here I am lol it takes time and a lot of effort, regardless of how much you write, whether it's a drabble or a series, it all takes time.

Editing is ridiculous! I continue to edit long after I've posted the story. Every single story I've written, I've changed in some way, so it's never the same from the first initial post. Sometimes I'll take things out, add things in, it's all really frustrating lol. So I completely understand. When I try to map or outline my stories, it never follows what I've prepared so I've stopped lol

I think you DEFINITELY should let me see what you've written!! :D

[whosthat]

I tried writing without guidelines and failed miserably, hahahaha.

Oookay. It's on livecapture at the moment. I'll be moving everything to a new comm though and delete that. :)

[ephemeral_blue]

Different things work out for different people, we're proof of that lol

Yay!!! I can't wait to read them! From what I can see most of your pairings I love :D

[whosthat]

Read and lemme know what you think! -nervous-

[ephemeral_blue]

I think you have a very lovely writing style!! I enjoyed them a lot, I left some comments lol.

There's really no need for comments like this: I'd show you what I've written but it's really nothing compared to yours. :z :) I thought they were fabulous!

I'd love to read more from you, especially if they pertain to two particular people lol.

Seriously, I'm insecure of my own work all the time, even when I post my stuff I get a little panic attack, it's normal. I'm sure even the best writers do :) Just keep writing, it'll get better, believe me, I've read some of my old stuff and I was completely horrified lol and a friend of mine literally gets better with every story she writes. :-)

[whosthat]

Thank you! I'm reading them and blushing and grinning like an idiot right now, haha!

Oh I'll be writing more, definitely. :D Currently I can only write in those two particular people's povs, because I'm a terrible biased person like that. I think I haven't quite grasped the other three's characters, so it's a little hard for me to write. Will attempt, though! ^^

[ephemeral_blue]

Oops, forgot to mention, I do write every day, whether I finish something or not, I'll always write something :)
