stupid and marvelous

Total words this week : 1772 words bringing my total for the month up to 8107 / 40000.

WIPs worked on this week : 2, no new WIPs (yay!)

HP
Draco Tops Harry fic : 1676 words which brings the total up to 6816. I am probably somewhere around 20% complete on this, which is way longer than I wanted it to run, and I'm starting to think that maybe I should consider dropping? I'm still well before the deadline so I think I'm going to give it another week or so and cross my fingers for some sort of wordcount miracle before I make a decision. But yikes. I was aiming for 8-10k. And in almost 7k I've only just gotten through the set-up and am about to start on what the prompt actually asked for.

MCU
Recovery & Separation (working title) : 96 words which brings the total up to 7455. I'm always disappointed that most of the fic out there focuses so hard on Bucky's recovery that it completely ignores how enormously and deeply depressed Steve is. So, this is sort of a response to that? The whole thing is basically how two people who are each hugely traumatized in different ways can navigate through their recoveries and a relationship at the same time, without dragging each other down or becoming unhealthily co-dependent. (Spoiler: not very well.) So much angst, so much feels. 'This is an excellent fic idea,' I think to myself as I open the doc. 'Oh wow I do not have the emotional energy to write this fucking thing right now,' I think to myself ten minutes later as I close the doc again.
