Slightly concerned that chapter 2 of my critically acclaimed new fic might be a bit shit...
#dead boy detectives#not SUPER shit#but it's a v diff part of the story#and that slow build of chapter one isn't really present here#it's more meandering with lulls in the tension/stakes#and idk a bit formless#and I'm getting in my head about it a bit bc tbh it's longer than I intended#like it's gotten so big that I'm probs gonna up the chapter count from 3 to 4/5#and I'm like ok but does it need all this extra stuff or is it a rambling boring waste of time?#this is what happens to my head when I let a one-shot idea spin out lmao#like I know lots and lots of people (including me) are more than happy to read fic that's like#basically just character moments/interactions with no plot or slow/plodding plot#but i feel like the creepy tense ghost story vibe of chapter one might have given people expectations that the rest of the fic will be that#and i'm gonna be real with you. the ENTIRE purpose of this fic is so I can write One Scene in the last chapter#everything else including themes and motifs have grown out of that#and I have no idea if they're gonna hang together in the end#ugh i'm gonna have to finish/post c2 soon before i get REALLY in my head about it and bury it#i have one more section to write i think#and then an edit#if anyone who doesn't mind spoilers wants to read it and tell me if it's horribly boring please dm me lmao#(it's chapter 2 of Lonely Bones if that wasn't clear)#mr. bees speaks
