What I Like About the Story: It's fun to write and I think it won't be boring. Sort of scary in a good way. I hope.

Anything Else: Thanks to the mods! :)

X-Men Fandom: XMFC universe but informed by the comics
Characters/Pairings/Type: It's mostly gen/friendship focused; modern AU inspired by the original E for Extinction and Excalibur Vol 3 comics. Characters: Erik, Charles, and Amelia Voght.
Current Word Count: 2500 approx
What I Like About the Story: Still the worldbuilding. Placing the plot and characters in a 'real world' context, in terms of history and politics.
What I Don’t Like About the Story: It's actually massive and way too fucking ambitious for me to complete in the time I have available right now. 👍 I had to scale down on my original idea quite a bit and start over.
Anything Else: I need a metaphorical kick in the ass and get writing but this thing is finally starting to take shape.
