hope is our four letter word
So, despite only sitting down to a computer at 4:45, I got a lot done today. See, I have spent the last, oh, 24 hours or so plotting all the myriad ways I'm going to ruin Sherlock's life for a fanfic at bigbang_mixup (people post fanmixes, authors then claim them and then an artist does art). My mix was originally a LotR mix but it was suitably depressing for a really angsty Sherlock fic and my mixer is fully on board with my idea. We've removed five songs and added twelve more and I've got the whole thing plotted out in my head. I spent today grabbing lyrics to all the songs, tracking down one more track to show trouble in the Sherlock/Molly relationship (I ended up choosing "Stay" by Rihanna even though it's not the perfect fit for what I wanted) and then getting copies of all the songs I didn't already have. So yeah. I don't write angst very often but my goal with this fic is to (a) ruin Sherlock's life completely and (b) make everyone cry while I do it. There will be drama and major character death and by the end of it I'm packing Sherlock right back into his addiction because he's the last one standing and all the heartbreak and loss of life is his fault. Well, his and Mycroft's, but he's blaming himself more than his brother. Why yes, I can be evil at times, I'm sure you guys realized that when I killed Irene in my "A Little Holmes" series. This fic is going to be "Everything Changes" ramped up to 11. I can't wait.
But, alas, I have other stories to finish first. Mainly chapter 7 of my kirkbigbang story, since I decided to make John Harrison a complete sadist and he needs to get his comeuppance. And yet I'm still not sure what to write, even with my summary. I suppose I'll get to it tonight because I have to. Although the mod has made no move to have a final check-in or assign posting dates, so I may still have a wee bit of time. But I should probably write it tonight, just to be on the safe side. Because I did nudge the mod tonight.
And I also really want to finish my massive WIP before I start devoting all my time to the angsty monstrosity and my three casestory fics (which also necessitates me finishing my "The Hounds of Baskerville" rewrite for my "All of Time And Space" series). I just posted chapter 15 today (link below) and it's officially at the minimum word count for a novel. So yay for that! I can write a novel length story, go me. Now I just need to finish it. I think I'm going to do it in four chapters: Mycroft pays a visit in 16 and Molly finally gets to meet him, Moriarty sends someone to try and kill Irene/Molly mother drama in 17, Moriarty shows up himself and basically loses his mind and dies in 18, and the culmination of the story in 19. If I can do at least two more chapters done by next Monday I'll be satisfied enough to start the bigbang_mixup story. ::nods::
Anyway! Here's chapter fifteen. Enjoy!
