@celli @yesterdaychild i can only report the vibes as i see them and the vibes are Yoongi being in love enough to check that Namjoon has his pass *and* tease him about it before sending him off to talk with his friends

@yesterdaychild @Satsuma No, although I DEEPLY love the idea! *makes notes* Someone else is trying to flirt with Yoongi and Yoongi is NOT picking up what he's putting down.

My problem is that the NJ/JK/JM bit is funnier than my A plot so now I only want to write that. Oops.

@celli @yesterdaychild oooh I also love this!

Is there an issue with the fest rules that would stop you from just pivoting to NJ/JK/JM? bc otherwise, i’m totally down to enable

@Satsuma @celli yeah, what if minimonikookie became your A plot?

@Satsuma @yesterdaychild It's not the prompt. Which is very cute and the problem lies with me not with it!

I could tone down the minimonikookie (lol) and write a sequel after reveals maybe? idk. I'm struggling with this fic.

@celli @Satsuma hmmm do you want to just write this fic as per how your heart feels, then write another for the fest? (it could be the companion fic to this one?)

@yesterdaychild @Satsuma *flails miserably* I dunno. It's possible that it's fine and I'm just overworked and injured. That could be a thing.

@yesterdaychild @celli being overworked and injured sure does make everything, including the creative process, way more difficult *hugs*

@Satsuma @celli it's definitely a thing. go easy on yourself. i haven't been able to write all year because i've been sledgehammered by work. idk how you do it!

@yesterdaychild @Satsuma honestly, I just wrote 300 words in 15 minutes because I didn't want to admit to breaking my streak again. a) weird motivation celli b) why can't I just have that 15 minutes over and over for a few hours and write a couple thousand words a day? because I can't, apparently. BRAINS.

@celli @Satsuma i gently remind you you have written like 100x more words i have this year and that's 'even though' you are 'only' writing 15 minutes a day

we all have our patterns and what works for us! and that includes our recalcitrant brains!

@yesterdaychild @celli those 15 minutes a day probably took a lot of energy, is why you can’t do them over and over for a couple hours! It’s okay to need to rest and recharge before you can write more

@yesterdaychild @Satsuma I mean, my routine is "write a paragraph, doomscroll, write another paragraph" which...could use some work.
