I think it’s funny how much change and development I’ve made to the plot storyline in my head that I’ve been documenting for almost 3 years now. When I first came up with the concept there was going to be like magic and angels and faeries and a whole bunch of world building shit that did NOT fit together at all and made no sense. But now instead it’s a bunch of situations that are exactly as outlandish as the fantasy genre because of how fucked up they are. Nobody makes healthy or normal decisions.

#The characters who used to be angels got changed into just being med school college students #And instead of magic there’s more medical malpractice now #Well there was originally already some medical malpractice but now there’s just a whole lot more #The only real “fantasy” element I have now is like ghosts and reanimation of the dead #Which is significantly less high-fantasy than the initial idea of the “angel realm” or the rest of the shit I had planned #I like it better this way #I didn’t know how to shift the vampire characters into not being fantasy anymore since it didn’t fit but I came up with a solution #They’re just reanimated dead people who have most of the same qualities as a vampire but that’s just the side effects of being revived #And the “necromancers” that I initially wanted to write about are just people who bring corpses back to life using science #But they scam people and lie to them by marketing it as magic
