Today is not really as stressful as I am making it be. Alphonse and Albert have been giving me MASSIVE trouble, ever since I decided to plot out to the end. They don't have the personalities I wish they did, at least, not to the degree I wish they did.
I realize why I avoid plotting.
On the bright side, this SHOULD make things easier. Alphonse's opinion is easily swayed--he sides with his father on everything, follows the rules, is polite, which made the character change so impactful. But, as things are now, it doesn't make sense for him to do that, so he won't. Ire won't help him. Albert will still be an issue.
Those are actually my only major issues, dealing with Alphonse, the slavery issue, and where's Patton. The other things are okay or becoming okay with some reworking. This is the point where I'd usually bail on a story. There's tons I could do with Sedna, after all, but that story gives me the heebies. There's Monarchy, there's Untitled but Important, there's shorts I could be working on.
*deep sigh*
I'll go back to it. I'll know I'll feel better when it comes together. I just know I'm being temperamental, putting off other things for writing, I know I've been in this chair all day, just trying to PLOT. Edit. Plot. Plot. Consternation.
Now I want to dance. Procrastination time.
