First off, why yes, I am going to be posting about my NaNo. Not loads, but considering there's not all that many things I'm doing that merit posts and there's only so much squee I can delve out over television (especially when some shows *cough Dollhouse cough* are on a month long hiatus). Enjoy :)

Plot progress: Chip's almost had a panic attack, we haven't even caught a glimpse of the baddies, and we're entering a flashback, after which he'll be in Kansas City and then it's dead angels galore! (That sounds a tad morbid...)

3151 / 50000 words. 6% done!

ETA: Last night I dreamt out the entire plot to my NaNo and I can't remember any of it. Woe. (it was cool and full of zombies.)

BWAHA! Sam is heading for Kansas City this very same minute ;)

*huggles you*

AND YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE WRITTEN THIS MUCH ALREADY! Let me catch up, aaah!

(And your writing is badass, how could anyone ever think it wasn't awesome? ♥)

[bending-sickle.livejournal.com]

Bwahahaha indeed! (Unfortunately, in my timeline Sam's already Lucifer...I think.) What's your general plot, by the way?

Dude, I was just writting in advance because I just know I'm not going to get much down during the week. Weekends ftw!

Aaaand ♥!

Hot damn, you're writing in the universe of SPN? And Sam is Lucifer? (And Dean is off somewhere being wicked hot and authoritarian?) Hot damn, girl, hot damn. :D

Whew, my plot ;) So it picks up right from 5.02 where Sam and Dean decide to go their separate ways, and basically tells the story of what Sam gets up to. Right now, he is a lot disconnected and in denial (big time) and in addition to suddenly being all alone again, his powers are pretty much all over the place, so Sam is kind of stressed out. ;) Also, he's frickin' broke right now, so he has to ride the bus so he can get the hell out of dodge (where he almost blacked out because of his stress-induced migraine)... and god, I'm going too much into detail, I'm realising. ;) To cut a long story short: first I will break him, then I will fix him, then I will kill him and then I will fix him all over again and everyone will live happily ever after. While, uh, God is lost and Lucifer is wandering the earth, but still: HAPPILY EVER AFTER :D

*coughs into fist discreetly*

...

Now you tell me aaaaalllll about your plot, woman! (And in embarrassing detail, too, please, so I don't have to feel so bad) ;)

ejersoleae#dfjsr. HALP!

(and please excuse my crummy grammar, Nano has broken my brain. already. dangit.)

*makes grabby hands* It sounds awesome! (And migraine!Sam makes me all sad and parental and "Must Fix"-y.

first I will break him, then I will fix him, then I will kill him and then I will fix him all over again - This made me giggle hysterically for far too long :D Oh, SPN, where death is just another way to break someone, how adorable a show you are.

Alrighty, I'm still on the fence whether my story's set in SPN or not, but I''m slipping in a lot of just-in-case references. It's still going to be from an outsider's point of view and not Sam or Dean heavy.

The plan is to have Chip, who's some poor random guy trying to not get disemboweled in the apocalyptic world that is The End with its not-zombie Croatoan people. He gets to Kansas City (which is somewhere close to where Future!Dean had his base, or that's what I'm sticking with) and finds an angel who's practically dying after having Fallen. (Like, angel's now a pretty normal guy with massive gaping wounds where his wings used to be.) The jury's still out on whether this is Castiel just after his powers went poof and he turned into Hippie!Castiel, but I think I'll do it. So then, uh, stuff happens and Chip gets dragged into the Lucifer resistance team and somewhere there's some sort of resolution. (Which may include the suicidal mission Dean lead in The End.)

...yay?

KLMFGZZUOMFGZ!

BIG BIG YAY

Seriously, that sounds insanely cool! *wibbles* YOU, WOMAN, WRITE

THIS IS GONNA BE GLORIOUS! :D :D :D

Ah yes, who hasn't been dead on SPN already. You know, "been there, done that" kinda deal. ;)

(and man, I wanted to type 'dead' and what do I write? 'that', at first, then 'dean', then I manage 'dead'. oh nano thou art cruel.)

And have yourself some more migraine-y!Sam so you can be sad and parental and "must fix-y" ;):

Someone is smoking and Sam turn his head to the side a bit, and then there is a little girl, watching him, looking up to him with big, blue eyes, hair in little curls.

Sam smiles a little, but she doesn't smile back, and her mother who is walking by fast just drags her along, regardless of the girl's desire to linger and watch.

Sam used to like to do that, too. Now he's happy when he doesn't have to --------- watch Dean die Jess burning burning Dean being ripped apart his father dead on a hospital floor god god -------------------- - - - - - a pain lances through Sam’s head as sudden as lightning but ice cold, and god, he thinks, why. He scrunches his eyes shut and just-- presses a hand to his temple and as if this is gonna make it better as if he would want to push the pain right out the other side, but it's gonna be fine, gonna be fine, and his head is full of fog but then it’s gone, the pain. Just like that, it doesn’t hurt anymore.

It's a recurring theme, really.

Maybe I should lay off for awhile. ;)

*heart crumbles a little whilst reading the italics part* *scoops up Sam and snuggles him* Oh, you poor angst-riddle thing! (Heeeeey...do those dashes count as words? I cry foul if so! *still waves pompoms for you*)

Alright! Gotta do some serious writing now! Good luck to ya!

[seschat.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow, I didn't even think of those dashes. Yeah, actually - Word tells me that they're 6 whole words. Heh. But don't worry, I promise I'll write 51k to make up for all the dashes I used, yes? ;)

Right back at ya! *also waves some pompoms for you*

And post, woman! I wanna know what happens, your plot is brilliant! :D
