Updates

So, Prodigy has had chapter 3 updated, and ficwad.com now has the complete versions of Longing to be with you, Visions of You and Fallen up.

I'm gonna put Prodigy chapters 1-3 up within this week, or maybe today if I'm feeling better. I'm a little under the weather, and I'm not sure if it's just a cold or allergies. Either way, I'm feeling pretty crappy and need some rest.

I've been working myself hard lately. Those who know me know it's because I'm working my ass off to save money for my move in a few months, and student loans are being called in. BLURGH! :S

I'm currently working 2 paying gigs and 1 internship. I guess it's starting to take it's toll on me but I'm sure as hell not going to let anything stand in my way of what I want. I'll rest for now then get back on my feet and be the crazy, hyper and outgoing lady I usually am. :)

I started jotting a few ideas for the RE4 fanfic... I don't think I want to do it though. It's just not a fanfic I can make to be adult, and really, that's what I'm known for.

Ok, strike that! It is something I can make adult, but it greatly spits in the face of the quality of writing if at every opportunity they drop their pants and hit the sack. ::sigh:: I don't like fanfics like that; sex is important in adult fanfics, but not enough to me... it should not trump a good plot, just be an accent to it.

The issue is that the RE4 fans are split between who they like paired up with Leon in terms of a female character. It's either Ada or Ashley. And as easy as it would be to have him go with both of them, I honestly doubt Leon's actual character would agree to that; his character and personality is too straight-ace and noble for that.

So it comes down to the woman opposite of him that sets the tone for the story. Ashley strikes me as an innocent, she will always be a follower to Leon. Whereas Ada is very much capable of striking down any alpha male. Ada is not a follower or a leader; she's the one you have to chase or eventually end up being stalked by.

It reminds me very much of the game. As Leon alone, you can go nuts, shooting at people, not giving a shit because you know you can reload. As soon as Ashley's following you, you suddenly become more cautious. And even though you know you can reload, you don't want to; reloading means not only have you failed Leon, but Ashley—the feeble one—as well.

I should probably say this now. I HATE Ashley; she's annoying and every time she goes missing I'm happy; I can't help but cheer "Escort mission over!" And then she comes back. -_-; She's like that person you invite to the party because you feel you have to but you'll desperately hope they don't come.

Oh well, maybe I'll tinker around with it longer. Chances are it will be Ada he's paired with, and Ashley shows up just so I can kill her off in the story. :)

Many Ashley fans will cry foul over that though. :P Oh well. It's about time I gained a little notoriety, even if it's for something stupid as that. XD
