First day in a while that I’ve gotten genuine writer’s block! The brain is not focusing. Might be that I’ve got only about six chapters of Ember Warrior left, and that does kind of mean that only the chapters I was nervous about and putting off are left. Maybe I will have better luck after sleeping on it though!

#one is a Mep chapter #one is a Gildhe chapter i dropped in last minute that needs the previous Crislie ch finished first before i understand it fully #and alllll the other four are Crislie #i lov Crislie #but out of my protags she keeps the most to herself and i have to shake her aggressively to get her to spill ANYTHING vulnerable #even just in narration #meanwhile i just have to poke Mep or Navaeli and they break down in tears confessing every frustrated thought they are not saying aloud #Crislie just #no thoughts we eat our emotions and die #i mean it kind of makes sense to me #Vae & Mep do emotional repression primarily for their own safety #Crislie does it for other’s safety because most of her negative emotional responses are “punch the person i feel is responsible”#& that gets complicated when like the people responsible are like #noncorporeal gods / “the system” / Regent in her ivory tower / Gildhe is being slightly annoying / Crislie’s Da but only a lil #i have written more in these tags than i have written for anything else today hkjsksks #finally i can write things!#but now i go to bed in less than tEN MINUTE #sleeby #goodnight
