an assortment of things

[quillpunk]

I signed up to fffx for the first time and this morning I got an email from modzilla (the event mod). The Fear(TM). It was fine! Just somebody with questions regarding one of my requests but still. I was not prepared, lol.

Anyway, I wasn't originally going to sign up, but I finished all my exchange fics back in June, which was very nice in July, but now I'm just kind of going 'but... but... fic... deadline... where?' all the time. Like, I've done (counting the ones I've finished but which are technically not over yet) like 12 exchanges so far this year and the break was nice, but now I'm bored.

A reminder to myself, fandomgiftbasket is still going, so do that too!

On that note, I have a mystery gift from fandomgiftbasket! I'm very excited, I requested like 8 different fandoms so no idea what it's gonna be. I also got a delightful All for the Game, Jean/Andrew/Neil fic for rarepairexchange. I do feel bad because I've still not read either of my gifts from fandom5k, but they're Long, and I just don't have the emotional wherewithal right now, sigh.

I started watching Meet You at the Blossom on Viki, a BL cdrama which I really like so far! But every other episode Stuff Happens and I have to write a fluffy fic to heal my heart before I can keep watching, so I've written two fics today and am working on the third while I work up the courage to watch episode six. (Stuff has Happened. Things have been done. Shit Is About To Go Down, I'm pretty sure.)

• Fic 1: leave with the memories
• Fic 2: carve the root from the tree branch

(Like, regarding fffx, I'm dubious about my ability to write a 10k fic, but I'm fairly sure I can do two 5k fics, so I plunged in headfirst, lmao.)

Anyway, I still need to write (check's notes) 8.6k words by midnight tomorrow to hit this week's writing goal, so please excuse me while I panic. (This post was definitely not a moment of procrastination, why would you... I mean... why-why-why... ehem, why would you think that?)
