Two years of writer's block.
Now that I have cable in my room, I've had the TV on a lot more. I was able to watch Tin Man on SciFi without a battle for the television and constant noise. I've already found a couple of Glitch/Cain slash fics. I was pairing them throughout most of the series. I'd write one myself if I wasn't so lazy. I actually got another comment on my former Yu-Gi-Oh Jou/Seto yaoi fic. I say "former" because at this point it really has very little to do with the manga. It needs an "alternate universe" warning, and not just because of that GX series which has come along since I last updated. Back in, what, 2005? I've been thinking of rewriting it completely with original characters and settings and whatnot. I suppose I will add that AU warning and try to finish it off, though. I wrote myself in a corner, I think. And it just wasn't a very good year. I haven't written much since then. I did write another chapter for the story, and a lot of background on the two main original characters, and but I don't like the next chapter I wrote. So anyway. The main things about the comment that stuck in my mind. The commenter was most upset about what the main original character, Toyoshima, had done to Mokuba. In fact, most reviewers seemed more upset about it. Why? Jou and Seto are put through much more abuse. What happens to Mokuba is relatively small, I think. I was originally going to kill him, but Seto wasn't going to find out for a few more chapters. The other thing the reviewer mentioned was that it had a bad ending, which I found amusing because it doesn't actually have an ending at all. If I ever do end it, it won't be a happy ending. I know where I want it to go. Maybe I should just put that out of my mind. Oh. That or post the crap that is my current chapter thirteen. I have such a headache. Too much caffiene or too little. That's silly. I haven't had a soda for hours because I thought I was going to go to bed. It's too little. Maybe I should have a Game Fuel and get writing. I almost posted in a thread about Tin Man, but then I didn't. I used to be less of a lurker. Well. I've already posted more in the past month than I have for a long time. That's good enough. All this winter gifting has been nice. I've gotten, what, three items off my wish list already. I discovered that the XL Gaia t-shirt I got in '05 is worth around 63,000 gold. I kind of like it, but I'm watching the prices. If it goes much higher than that, I might sell it to fund presents. After all, I still have the hat and balloon. I'm not sure if I really like the hat. I do quite like the balloon.
