Fic problems

... I was originally supposed to include flashbacks in the fic about Pete Coppermine's past. But the way it's turned out, it looks like flashbacks would break the flow of conversation between him and his sister. What should I do---do the flashbacks anyway or leave it as is and have things explained in their conversation? And then do an actual flashback fic later?

And I want to keep an air of terror and suspense in the creepy stalker fic, but I don't want to kill off any canon characters. XD; Then I'd have to make the fic a timeline by itself, when I wanted it to be part of the main timeline. But I also don't think three or so almost-kills would look good. One character has already been attacked (off-screen) and is probably not hurt too badly because the creep was interrupted. I think somebody should die, but it will have to be a random OC. And then I was thinking maybe a canon character would be almost killed and laying at death's door for a while. How does that sound?

**and has done the pencil sketch of the pic where Yami Bakura is first speared.** o.o It came out really well. **will hopefully get it scanned.**

EDIT: Got it scanned. http://www.side7.com/lucky_ladybug66/gallery/

Hmm... since the focus seems to be on Bakura and Yami B, maybe a separate fic would work best for him... (he has his own character filter, after all).

Poor OC... ;___; So which canon character did you have in mind...?

And ooh, chilling pic. o.o Yami B's expression of utter shock drives it home... ;___;

Hmmm.... That's difficult to say, but could you fit in some flashbacks some place other than in the middle of their conversation? Like at the beginning or the end? Or maybe something like, if it's meant to be a long conversation and Pete's telling her about what happened, have them sit down to start the conversation, with Pete saying something to the effect of, "Well, it goes like this...." And then have the flashback that he's telling her about. And afterwards, they could discuss whatever else they'd need to discuss after Pete tells his story. **not sure how well that fits in, though.** XD;

Sounds good to me! That's what random OCs are for, right? XD

**and leaves a comment for the pic!**
