Just a PSA

[laurenthemself]

Trying to write Lister/Rimmer when Rimmer is still in Trixie LaBouche's body is oddly disconcerting.

Just thought I'd share that little factoid with everyone.

*shakes head* the phrase 'his breasts' is just not right!

Edited to add: I have finished writing the fic in question, so if people want to read it, it's here.

Well, what if you reread Parole and Body Swap straight through to get you back in the right frame of mind, and didn't RP in the interim? Hopefully it wouldn't take you too long, and then you could whip up some sort of conclusion. I reread BSTT last night and it's pretty close to being wrapped up anyway, IIRC.

...Don't RP?

I'm sorry, I don't speak your crazy moon language. :O

It is so close to completion. But I go back and re-read it and it's, like, oh god I could do SO MUCH BETTER NOW. I'm sorely, sorely, SORELY tempted to just yank both Parole and BSTT and re-write both from beginning to end.

Okay, fine, don't even give up RPing for half a week to satisfy my need for the end to BSTT.

For the luvva gawd, don't go back and rewrite them. I think they're great! I just need an ending for BSTT and I can die happy, that's all, honest.

Half a week in that game is, like, a fuckin' ETERNITY, yo. ;)

But, no, seriously. Hips has more depth now. The Suey McSuerson label has been torn out of her underpants. She's a PERSON, now, not just some way to toss a blonde babe at Rimmer and then write smut.

But I'll try. I really will.

You said at the end of the last chapter that there was only one chapter to go... and that was how long ago?

Darl, you're starting to rival ME for the WIP that's been the longest in progress. I'm only looking out for my title. Honest. Really.

Well, one chapter and a prologue. >_>

And that was... last August. *sigh*

...epilogue. Not prologue. Hi. *headdesk*

*pets*

Yesterday I wrote two chapters of the Discworld/HP fic, and finished off the RD Mary Sue, and I still had time to watch two episodes of the Brittas Empire and one of Firefly.

I know you can do it. I have faith in you.
