What are you working on right now?

[littlebutfierce]

What's everyone working on lately? If you don't want to give specifics, maybe you just want to rant (or rave!), or ask for help, or just say that yes, thank goodness, there IS some kind of idea rattling around in your brain. Or something else. I like cheerleading, so if anyone needs any, shout. ;)

I'm working on at least 3 Oofuri fics (& none of them specifically for the kink meme, woe). One of them is a more unusual (at least in my head) pairing, one is a futurefic (I almost never get ideas for futurefics, dunno why), & one is another female masturbation fic (this seems to come up a lot in my fic! All my ladies touch themselves, hooray!).

They're all at various stages of approaching the point where I really will need another eye on them, but are all also stymieing me in slightly different ways (also NAMES & HONORIFICS, need I say they always stymie me?). I've been inching forward with them, & every time I leave one for a few days I come back & discover it's not as crappy as I'd feared but that it still needs loads of work. I just feel like I need more stamina & more faith right now or I might end up abandoning them, which would suck as they're close! Sorta kinda!

I also have half-written a Tam Lin (the Pamela Dean novel) fic that I tried to crank out for the Porn Battle, but I don't think it will ever go anywhere, or not without a LOT of work.

I have a couple of other things in very embryonic stages but they're the sorts of things I don't want to mention lest I scare the ideas back into hiding.

Aw, I was hoping you somehow knew who drew that pic! The artists seem to un-anon themselves less than the writers, alas...

I'm trying to get down in the fic how Tajima can have a rare serious moment & flip in an instant back to his more usual goofy dorky self ("I hate tall guys!... OOOH POPSICLES!": that sort of thing) & auuuuuuuuugh.

I think if Hamada really wanted to he could totally whoop Izumi's ass. I KIND OF WANT TO SEE IT NOW.

Sadly, no. :/ I'd like to think I'd recognize it if it was one of my artist friends, so I'm assuming this is someone unknown...

Ah, yes. As soon as you want to make Tajima serious about something else than baseball, it becomes reaaaaal difficult. But closer to his canon personality!

Agreed, but for some reason he never seems to do it. I would really like to find out what that reason is. HAMADA FLASHBACK TIME, PLEASE?

Yeah, it's easy enough to do Tajima being awesome & braggart-y & in-your-face about masturbating--& I love stories about Tajima being like that. Maybe I should just stick w/that, augh! But I do like the odd way he & Mihashi click w/each other... though yeah, mostly, like you, I see them as buddies or brotherly types.

I want to see fic about wee baby Hamada! Well, not actual baby. But middle school & younger. I am sure there is mega angst fodder there (including the sekrit reason why he doesn't give Izumi a thrashing!).
