Blood/Water: Outtakes

[laurie_bunter]

Hmm. I haven't quite got my act together this week, my mind has been filtering a lot of junk lately. And since I hate to disappoint friends and lurkers, especially since I promised I would upload chapters of Blood/Water every week... *sweat drop* Here, have some outtakes instead. I hope they keep you from biting off my head

A lot of hardcore mystery fans would disagree with you about character development not being necessary -- gasp! -- as long as the case is solved. I've never been one for the "pure puzzle" type of mystery but yeah they do exist.

The scene where Ichigo thunders at Orihime is actually a continuation of my homage to Strong Poison, because in that book, Lord Peter actually knows the woman who gives the "hung jury" vote. But I cut it out because... I cut it out. Hmm.

So you think I should keep the tape recorder scenes? More hmm. Lots of other people (in the comments below) seem to agree with you. Do you think it's too late to add them on at this point? I mean, the fic's been up for weeks. Of course I could always rearrange chapters over at the Great Cesspool and MediaMiner. It seems like such a shame to confuse people, though. Hmm. Or do you think a note on the latest chapters mentioning the edits should suffice?

More hmm.

Thanks for the quick eye out for mistakes. I did change "shot" to "bullet" XD Yes! Knowing Shunsui, in thisuniverse he's probably got a stainless steel whiskey flask on him, in true gumshoe fashion.

Hmm, no character development makes it sound boring. I'm much more interested by character motives than scanning the text for that one clue. Also, what about unsolved mysteries? Actually, I think real cases, like that of Jack the Ripper, are more intriguing because there isn't really an answer. Much more mysterious. And realistic.

Hmm.

I think what I was driving at before was that you should keep the tape recorder scenes. Though, it sure would be a hassle for you to insert them at Fanfiction.net, considering that you have separate chapters for interludes.

Hmm hmm. Hmm.
