So back in December when I was writing Suiren's birthday fic I set Haya's birthday as March 1st so I'd have some kind of deadline for finishing the first chapter of the fic about her (that I started in 2023 and didn't get past 800 words 😬), otherwise it would never get done

March 1st is Saturday. I never once opened the damn document.

I know I'm a master of speedrunning at this point but for fuck's sake can I please write like a normal person for once in my life???

#I don't doubt that I'll get it done #I have the entire chapter plotted out in my head #I've replayed it so many times that it's really just a matter of writing it down. I don't have to come up with anything #but good god #I wrote Midori's birthday fic in 20 hours #I wrote Suiren's birthday fic in 10 #I wrote the last third of the Aiza fic in one night #why do I always leave shit like this to the last second and then scramble to pump out 5000 words in less than a day #my brain is always so fried after. and the fic ends up needing a lot of edits. why do I do this to myself #if I wrote slowly over a larger period of time this wouldn't happen #but oh well. nothing I can do about it now but spend this week on it #and not let Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy possess me Friday evening like it usually happens #we'll see how it goes #I guess you could say that I... write like I'm running out of time #<— references I should be euthanised for
