The WIP That Wasn’t

[deird1]

You might have noticed me posting the occasional fic commentary - mostly for lavastar, who is insatiable.

But I got stuck. Because she requested a commentary for Not, Now, which… well, it’d probably end up being 5% fic and 95% commentary, and most of it would have very little to do with what I’ve written. Mainly because the actual story I’ve got in my

It sounds marvellous. Why not write it as a drabble/ficlet series, the way I did with 'The Dying of the Light', and tell an epic story in a series of snapshots?

[deird1]

I'd certainly like to write some drabbles in this Verse, at some point...

[peroxidepirate]

Fascinating! I'd definitely read it if you ever were to write it. :)

[deird1]

Nice to know... :)

Awesome unwritten epic. I especially like all the Council dissembling. Tossers. I notice that the Buffy POV is not represented. Worrisome. Poor Buff. What an evil splinter Watcher group could get up to with a helpless Slayer in their power is bound to be not at all pretty. I'm trying to remember the title/author of a short fic wherein the Council gets Buffy-in-Faith back to England and keeps "killing" her to make new Slayers. *shudder*

Indeed it is. *is mysterious*

I rather like the Council - but they're certainly very convenient villains...

[lavastar]

Ooh! Oohhhh. That would be AWESOME.
But I do love hearing backstories, so it's cool even if it doesn't get written. :))

[deird1]

Yay!

(I think this is the last commentary you'll get out of me until the next round of requests, alas. I just don't have enough to say about the final three...)

[lavastar]

Ah, well that's alright. I can always go and choose other stories. :D

I would have loved to read this story! As it is, I'm very happy with what you gave us. ;)

[deird1]

Glad to hear it! :)
