I suppose it's better than no stories...

Me: All right, so, I'd like to get this story done before Christmas, and maybe this one and this one during the holiday season, and then these ones aren't seasonal, so I'll leave those until later unless I get something I need to write down. Okay?
Brain: Yep, sounds good.
Me: Good, so that's the plan and we'll stick to that.
Brain: Yep, totally.
Me: Excellent, so I'll just open up the the first story and we can--
Brain: You know what would be a good story?
Me: No, we're working on this story.
Brain: But, what about a story where--
Me: This story.
Brain: New AUs!
Me: No.
Brain: Children!
Me: No!
Brain: You know who we haven't given a daemon to yet...
Me: I hate you.

I think the thing you aren't working on always looks shinier because you haven't gotten to the hard part of writing it yet, so when you're in the middle of the hard part of the story you're always thinking something else would be easier to write.

This sums up my middle school education.

I've settled on 'Some Angst but Also a Lot of Good Things for Steve Rogers' for this Christmas party fic.

I'm not sure if it's straightforward angst if the nice thing Steve gets also makes him kind of sad.

I don't think the fact that I've become addicited to Tetris since researching it for my last daemon story is helping my productivity at all. Research is dangerous.

I'm not sure if it's straightforward angst if the nice thing Steve gets also makes him kind of sad.

Sounds like a Scribbler story to me. "Even the happy things are sad!'

In my case, the nice things make him happy. And Sam is being very protective, which is a bit adorable.

Awww! That is a bit adorable.

I'm tempted to have Sam say this in my fic now to Steve. "Man, even the happy things make you sad!"

Sam wasn't even going to be there, but Steve plus oned for him, so I was like 'okay, come on then, it's not like I don't have eight other characters to write in this thing'.

I can totally hear him saying that exact thing, actually.
