current chapter word count: 7836
less because "Kids in the Park" & "When did you plan to tell me?!" now have a lot less clutter, a lot more impact and "The Talk" can finally be focused on the important stuff, rather than pulling notes out of Seishiro's nose (which might result in a renaming of the scene).
amount of chapter considered done: same as before
amount of chapter in continuous text: same as before
character for once being useful again: Setsuka
character finally being IC again: Seishiro
feeling that I had something very close to what I have now when I started bettering the scene: very high, but I'm still pleased with the results
because I like ending parts with snappy taglines!
quote of the day: "Stop being evasive!"

Wanders towards the door, opens and peeks in, sees you scribbling away madly and thinks "Stop being evasive" a very snappy tagline. XD

[akk]

Actually "Stop being evasive!" is in the middle of that scene... ;)
The snappy tagline of that one is a lot more... poignant (at least for me).

[sabriel75]

Oh that tagline pertained to my thoughts on me... as in I'd love to squeal in fannish glee over the thought of how much done you have accomplished which means you're that much closer to getting it beta'd and in turn means that much closer to actually posting.

But I'd hate to interrupt the flow and also, it can be annoying for your crazed, stalker, favorite(?) readers to constantly barrage you with "almost done, yet?" when you're so kind to post these tantalizing personal updates.

[akk]

These "tantalizing personal updates" are my method to stay sane about the excruciatingly slow procrastination process of developing this fic, because I'm at least as crazed, impatient, plot-stalkerish as my readers when it comes to it.
and the answer to my own almost done is still: not nearly enough! (sadly)

[sabriel75]

The beauty of everything wonderful is how willing you are to wait for it. XD

(gladly participates in aiding and abetting the slowprocrastination process of finishing your marvelous work :)

slow procrastination process which will now be on hold until tomorrow, because I intend to waste another hour on Brent Weeks' "The Way of Shadows". Back tomorrow. :)
