**falls over.**
I am getting so tired of sleeping for four and a half hours and then waking up without being able to go back to sleep! -___-;
I finally finished my chapter, so I'm getting more confident about being able to read things. Hopefully I can catch up on replying to entries and such.
And I was just reminded that I need to finish The Diamond Rose Glass. XD Which I really want to do, but can't seem to get back to ever since realizing part of what I had planned for the climax won't work. **headdesk.** Very discouraging. But hmm.... Maybe now that my tornado chapter's done, I can get The Diamond Rose Glass out and look it over. X3
It's amusing how rusty early fics in a fandom can sound. **would like to redo some things in her early FF7 fics, such as A New Beginning.** And I was thinking about fictional Elliott's characterization in my Carmen fics. He was really tense and short-tempered in those first few stories. I added other things here and there, like his clumsiness in the second fic, but I don't think it was until I heard Kingdom of Shy and wrote You Won't Be So Far Away that I really started figuring out how I wanted to write him---sweet and shy, but with a righteously indignant streak that flares up when his friends are being hurt. And of course, he's more intelligent than season 3 portrayed him as being. XD;
Sean was actually a bit of a puzzle to me too at first, but I think I was able to figure him out by the end of Walk Like an Egyptian. XD;

YAY more chapter! :D
YAY for continuing Diamond Rose Glass! But not so yay for defective climax... Plot hole problems, or "Er, maybe not"?
Or you've run out of ways to resurrect your characters >_> It's funny how someone seems to die in every fic, and when they come back and the next fic comes along and they die again you can still make me believe they're not coming back XD
I NO RITE. I reread the FFVII/Carmen Sandiego crossover blurbs the other day and the guys seem... utterly unconcerned about Scott's death. They're just walking out with his body when Mr. Voice shows up o_0 If the Carmen Sandiego tags are anything to go by, it happens to be the first thing you wrote for the fandom. You subconsciously warp the characters' personalities to make them react the way you want to, but then you go "Wait. Waaaaait... Yeah right." When you read them later.
And yay for Sean censoring himself and asking random people about tabloids, lol.no subject
Kind of more the "Er, maybe not". XD It didn't have anything to do with bringing someone back to life, though. But it did involve an injury. ;)
Buwahaha. I've tried to tone down the frequency of it with the Carmen fics, alternating it with injuries of varying seriousness, but I still love a good Disney death now and then....
I had no idea what I was doing when I wrote those blurbs. XD; But I did have a basis for them carrying Scott humming a funeral dirge. It was based on a skit in The Boll Weevil Retrieval episode where they think Greg was killed.
Mermaid Cove was fun to write. X3
