I Joined Ao3 About A Year Ago And So I'm Finally Writing A Sequel/companion Piece To Abyss, My First

I joined Ao3 about a year ago and so I'm finally writing a sequel/companion piece to Abyss, my first fanfic, which I wanted to turn into a series of one shots. There will be much punching involved.

Also, 3 of my stories have reached 100 kudos and I am very happy. (One of them was written anonymously.) And my word count has recently passed 150,000 words. I'm just happy about this stuff!

Favorite friendship dynamic has got to be, “Villain grows to respect hero causing their worldview to change and eventually (probably as a result of hitting rock bottom) realize they were wrong and repent. Hero accepts this, offers their friendship, and helps the villain begin to grow as a person by directing them how to go about earning redemption and how to heal from whatever was making them do villain stuff before.”

This is how I see post season two Romeo and Jesse MCSM, Viggo Grimborn and Hiccup Haddock (if Viggo had lived) in How to Train Your Dragon: Race to the Edge, The Pines Twins and Pacifica from Gravity Falls, Zuko and the Gaang in ATLA, and my own two OCs, wish I knew more.

The Northwests are cannibals now.

Let me explain.

So I have so many stories that it's hard to keep track. It doesn't help that some of these stories have multiple documents: one for the actual story and one for the notes and outlines and such. Recently, I've been coming up with a bunch of new stories. I want to write them all eventually, but I also want to finish the ones that I already have. So I decided that to organize my stories, I should create another document! It is called "List of Stories." It is exactly what it sounds like. I have it organized by fandom (there's also a section for crossovers and a section for one-shots) and I put the title of the story or series, then below that, I put the titles of all of the documents that are a part of that story or series, and then, depending on the story I'll put a brief description of it. (One of the descriptions is just "crack narration." I haven't posted that particular story yet.)

Now, the name of my documents often don't match the name of the actual story. This is partly because of Not Wanting People Who Might See My Documents To Realize That I'm Writing Fanfic (even though anyone who might see my documents will most likely already know that, lol), partly me being embarrassed about the titles (again, because fanfic), and partly me being secretive for no reason. So I don't remember exactly what I named all the documents. (Or, at least, the names are vague enough that I'm double checking the documents just in case.)

So I'm clicking on these documents to double check that I'm putting the right ones. There's an AU I came up with several months ago - I'm not going to say which one, though I've mentioned it on here before - that I had a little bit written of. I clicked on the document for the notes/outlines and part of my notes was "Things Pacifica thinks are normal but are not."

Now, it's been a few months since I opened that fic. I've been focusing on other stories. But underneath that heading I just mentioned was...

Butler hunting. The Northwests are cannibals.

I have no idea what I was thinking when I wrote that. But it's going in the story when I finally write it. It's so horrifically messed up but so ridiculous that I'm laughing as I write this, because what was I thinking??!!

Anyway. That's my ramble for the day.

This might be obvious, but I feel like it's often misunderstood about Jesse's character.

When confronting the Apex and running away with Lake, his number does not change. They don't get his exit right away, it doesn't appear after this dramatic moment of him standing up for himself and his friend.

"But Yellow! It's about the pacing! It's about the drama of them running away!"

Wrong!

For one, Jesse's problem isn't that he can't stand up for himself. Because he can! And he shows us this!

This Might Be Obvious, But I Feel Like It's Often Misunderstood About Jesse's Character.

"It looks like your punching wasn't doing much good either."

This Might Be Obvious, But I Feel Like It's Often Misunderstood About Jesse's Character.

"I was yelling! It's still my turn to yell!"

He talks back after Lake mocks his approach. He puts his foot down and defends himself.

This Might Be Obvious, But I Feel Like It's Often Misunderstood About Jesse's Character.

"Pft. You would."

He antagonizes Lake after the flecs outted them as a criminal. He doesn't bend to Lake's whims like someone who's spineless.

This Might Be Obvious, But I Feel Like It's Often Misunderstood About Jesse's Character.

"You better not tell mom!"

He doesn't grovel for Nate not to tell their parents. Doesn't promise to make it up to him later, doesn't try to lighten this blow at all. The way someone would if they always played both sides.

Defending himself is not his problem, not really. It's not even just people-pleasing.

This Might Be Obvious, But I Feel Like It's Often Misunderstood About Jesse's Character.

"Don't tell me what to do!"

This Might Be Obvious, But I Feel Like It's Often Misunderstood About Jesse's Character.

"I'm not gonna be a part of anything like this. On or off the train!"

If it was? This would have been the scene Jesse got his exit. There's enough build up for it, we don't need the chase scene before it, we could still have the flex show up after Jesse's exit closed with Lake on the other side.

But it isn't.

This Might Be Obvious, But I Feel Like It's Often Misunderstood About Jesse's Character.

"I've got you. We're getting out of here."

This Might Be Obvious, But I Feel Like It's Often Misunderstood About Jesse's Character.
This Might Be Obvious, But I Feel Like It's Often Misunderstood About Jesse's Character.

It's only after he reassures Lake that his number changes. After he promises to stay with them, to side with them.

Jesse's issues were about standing up for others. For defending other people, even when it wasn't convenient. Not about him.

So I'm writing the Half Reversed Reunion AU and I went back to add more stuff but then got distracted making my previous post about the AU and when I went to write it I was greeted with this sentence.

Dipper was sketching on a "Will!"

I understand the instinct to make Modern Odysseus the type of guy who use's his son/wife's name as a password. he's definitely obsessed with them enough

but Odysseus is smart. he would never make his password something easy to guess and his son/wife's name is super easy to guess, especially since he'd talk about them extensively to every single person he met ever

instead I propose his password is something absurd, like 'olive tree' but using 'Penelope' as a cipher

Do you have a discord

Funnily enough, you're the second person to ask (though at the time you asked, I hadn't answered the other one). Yes, I do, but I'm not comfortable sharing.
