1) Solved my writing issue by switching from Word to longhand in a notebook. It's odd how that can jar things loose in your brain. I pretty much have to write on the computer for long stories, but this isn't going to be one. I also stepped away from trying to make the characters actually consummate anything, because they - or she, really - wouldn't ( Read more... )

1) On the one hand, I muchly look forward to reading your lovely, painful, guilty UST - a LOT. On the other, ah man, I finally got mine finished and posted. *le sigh*

Also, I totally, totally get the character(s) not cooperating on the consummating part. I think these characters are (currently on the show) in a really difficult emotional place for consummating things, which makes it tough on fic writers. I'm personally terrible at PWP. When I write, the characters have to have a reason to have sex, and we're so early in the UST stage canon-wise, and these two are soooooo damaged, it's difficult.

The Sarah in my head pretty much told me, "Do what? With HIM? Are you out of your mind? He's hard enough to deal with as it is and there are only about a thousand other reasons why that should never happen. No matter what I dream about and how much I like the way he smells and... Shut up! Don't make me kill you."

Then she went to clean the guns. :D

LMAO! Oh God, that is hysterical!

I SO hope S2 of the show gives us more things like shower scenes and not!flirting and other UST that would drive things exactly like the Sarah in your head. Hee.

Between Sarah and Derek and their assorted separate and shared issues, those guns under her bed are going to be the best-maintained firearms in the world.

Angsty UST is good, too! Who knows, maybe in the middle of it all, she'll decide to screw the UST and screw something, er, someone else. Or maybe this is just Sarah's way of making sure you write another fic after this one. *lalala*

P.S. Everyone should write faster. Just saying.

*Sarah glares and oils gun threateningly*

Seriously, though, I meant to get a lot of writing done today but the phone would not. stop. ringing. I'm going to take my notebook with me when I go to get my car's windshield replaced tomorrow. If that's the only way for me to entertain myself, perhaps there will be more progress.
