Feel free to commandeer any of the NPCs in my post if one of y'all wants him--besides Herman and Marie. They're just space fillers for the moment.

I haven't read either post yet ;-; THO I'M EXCITED TO! I just have been so utterly obsessed with the LSS Tsunami this week that I've done basically nothing but duo writing and LSS haha (but my ship managed 48k words in 8 days which is just insanity lol) but I am therefore behind on everything else. I did not sleep much the past two nights in a row (yes these things are correlated) so not sure how much brain power I'll have tonight, but if I can then I'll attempt to get a post up later ^^ Especially if I'm off work now... not sure haha
I have a job interview in seven minutes, virtually. So I worked 6-2 and then got dropped at my hotel for my interview while the rest of my coworkers went out to keep working. No idea if they're gonna call it a day by the time I'm done with my interview or if they'll come to grab me to go back out. But if I had to guess then I'd say they're going to call it after whatever site they're at now, so I should have time to work on this! If I can't, then I'll make an earnest effort to get a post up tomorrow ^^

Tsunami seems... impossible. I don't understand how you do it... I mean that's like 10k a person... my hands die for two days after five thousand words. (I actually started sending voice recordings on WhatsApp... my hands don't like over-exertion.)
I wish you the best of luck with your interview! And that you sleep well tonight.

Ahah it was fun though! Like, severe sleep deprivation, yes. 100% can't deny that hahah but we pulled off a small miracle ngl. Like we had a ~ v a g u e ~ direction we were heading with it but somehow managed to improv it all the way to the end of the story and wrap it up all nice and neat.
And actually more than 10k per person -- my ship only had 3 people, so that's 16k each (and I was free-est of my ship so I pulled a teeny bit more weight... we didn't actually partition it by author bc there was a lot of collabs going on, but I'd guess I did closer to 20k or so) and I am very proud of myself hahah
Also, don't have to go back out to work so I will see if my adhd brain will consent to taking on the persona of a new character so I can get my post up...

Okie dokie Synakrein has been introduced! Commence the internal conflict about whether to call him Esmond or Synakrein xD

Heeh excellent! No, do we keep to the order or...?

(Sorry... WIFI has all but died... since the transformer exploded... so I am trying to keep up with school and YWS when I can get the WIFI to work... Not sure when there will be repairs...)
We can keep order but we don't have to... I have a mandate and a vague idea that seems to make sense to me... but you guys really work separate from me until I've got at least two more scenes finished.
20k... my fingers would be amputated... oh my... (When it comes to it I have a very bad pencil grip/strength due to low muscle tone which is not a key writing advantage...) LSS sounds like a type of torture when you have to write that much. (A new way to interrogate writers? And... they can't go back edit!) Well done, Shady! (I hope your arms are alive!)
(I vote Esmond... his surname is one of those ones that likes to trick you and then knot your tongue.)

You're good! YWS has actually been being super janky the past two days so I've been struggling to get on the site anyhow. I hope your wifi gets restored soon, though! That sounds absolutely miserable.
And aha! Thankfully it was all typing no actual writing, otherwise yes my hand would be suffering badly lol
And okie dokie Esmond it is ^-^ his last name is just pronounced SIN-uh-CRANE. In canon he's actually my villain and people just call him Synakrein (like Trump... Biden... etc. classic call powerful man by his surname) but it felt weird to call him that from his own POV. So I was leaning towards Esmond anyway c:
