Pros of re-reading your own fic

a good time;

Has exactly the tropes you like and the characterization you want to read;

Gratification: yes you did finish a thing and yes you did do good;

Cons of re-reading your own fic:

They’re all in gray and black, and then here’s Talon in a blue I’m not even sure Noxian stores sell. Not even their house has blue in it. Looks a bit funny when I’m coloring.
