Sometimes, you write the first draft of a fic and you feel shitty about it because it is objectively Not Good Writing. And you're not sure it's salvageable at all, and even if it was, there isn't much point in polishing it up because it's for a very random 3-person ship that nobody has written before and you doubt anyone would be interested in, so it doesn't seem worth trying to edit it, let alone post. So you just feel like you kinda wasted your time there.

And then AEW randomly announces that those exact three people are gonna be teaming on Dynamite next week, and you're just like ''...Well, shit, now I have to post the damn thing! And soon?!'' 😭

#Seriously. I have a 5k word mess of an Orange/Ospreay/O'Reilly fic in my google docs that I was feeling Bad about #And THEN I find out they're randomly teaming?!#The curse of being a painfully slow writer strikes again LOL #I kinda doubt I'll be able to get the fic out before Wednesday #And even if I do I doubt it'll appeal to folks since it won't address them teaming up #And it's a sequel to a previous fic of mine #And it's just not very good #And all of that will likely put people off/disappoint them #But...I can't deny that this feels like a weirdly specific sign #I was legit considering scrapping this whole WIP and just giving up and starting something else #But I guess I can't now?? This is such a weird fucking coincidence I am DYING of laughter over here 🤣
