so. this is going to be my tgm exchange writing thread (which means no spoilers bc secrecy)

but also sadfghjgftzrghhhhhhhhh I have the fear that this is going to be long

unrelated question: do I add background namkook for the bunny and wolf aesthetic or do I control myself

I have decided controlling oneself is for losers lets start writing this baby and lets hope I figure out the missing plot while doing that

This is going to start with namgi bros *ugly laughter*

I have written one and a half sentences and I'm afraid I will go to jail for horny crimes on jks behalf thank you

sometimes, I believe, I should not have rights

reminder to my brain: keep this short hoe

how to write platonic namgi without having Yoongi being head over heels for Namjoon? Asking for a friend

Wrote 1k \\o/
Stopping for today bc finished the opening scene but I’m feeling good about this bc I finally got properly started yasssss!!!

Lets continue this while waiting for my teacher to reply
I’m not anxious but like somewhat unsettled and uncomfy so I’ll hold off of dms and stuff bc not spoons for that
Let’s hope that this’ll calm me down! Well insert The Neighbours in this scene hopefully

Will I call Tae "Good Face" in Yoongi's head until he introduces himself? Absolutely

500 words to go to meet todays goal and dialogue is annoying me to no end also hhh when do I reveal the actual you know important plot information? should I keep readers waiting with their suspicion for a little longer? hmmmmm

done with my 1k, might write more after a break and dinner! kinda wanna do the next scene too, I like the aesthetic of this one a lot I'm really happy with the prompt I got

Okay!!! Time to write again bc this file is taking its sweet time with uploading

Me, using a flower not for its symbolism but for its medical properties??? Who am I???
Yes this is about marigolds thx

Does the word combination “irrevocably ethereal” sound weird? Asking for a friend

This scene is going to be a bit longer than I had expected but I’m going to fight my way through it!!! I can do it!!! This first meeting has to be ~organic~

Me, a red hair taehyung enthusiast, seeing the opportunity to give him red hair in this:

I’m at 1k written in this session!!!! Let’s get it
Until the end of the scene, fighting!

This entire pieces is going to be so nice and light and aesthetic I kinda wanna give it more depth but like also I do absolutely not want to make it longer than it has to be bc wips
I mean it’s not like I already have plans to make this a series, nope

Do you guys think my person is going to be mad if I don’t get the ship together in this work and uhm maybe write more works in the series where they end up together? Because I feel like I’d be rushing with the romance in this probably hm

Finished the scene with writing 1.5k in this session hell yes! This means I wrote 2.5k today which means that we’re at 3.6k
And that in two days party people I have a good feeling for this one

It is *wriggles arms* writing timeeeeeee let’s introduce a new character in this scene (jin or hobi jin or hobi jin or hobi shit)

This has so much dialogue which is a) good bc I can practice dialogue and b) very bad bc dialogue is my weakness

AHAHAHAHAHA NOT @ HOW I JUST CAME UP WITH A WHOLE FUCKING PREQUEL FOR THIS PIECE AND I ALREADY HAD ONE FOR ANOTHER PAIR OF CHARACTERS WHY IS MY MIND LIKE THIS

Listen. It’s a royalty au idea and like. Maybe with a dash of arranged marriage and angst. And like. Soulmatery. (Is it obvious whom I’m talking about yet)
Fuck now I really want to write that why am I incapable of writing short things

Oh fuck. I came up with a backstory for the other two characters I hadn’t yet. Oh shit. That’s some delicious enemies to lovers and some like what do you call it? Secret dating? Oh man that one is also angsty nooo
Also I really want a good backstory thing for Yoongi now too

Like those are all backstories that I like want to write as prequels to this one. Oh man. Brain pls stop I have two novels I’m writing currently additional to that

Oh no now I want to write a sequel where jungkook also gets like magic
Why do I tend to make jk the human in my fics??? Oh ah. To quote Yoongi in this one: “because If he’d also have magic on top of everything else it really would be unfair”

But also!!! Late bloomer jk!!! Like imagine!!! Oh man this will be a series and it will take my heart shit

Ho boy I just remembered that this’ll have this jm and this Tae eyyyeee

Also if anyone has more good pics of red hair taehyung give them to me pls immediately bc I love red hair taehyung

I planned out basically no plot for this before writing apart from the very very very basics and I’m actually enjoying that quite a bit? The only problem with it is that this will be longer than I wanted it to (again)
But like I don’t think anyone but me will complain abt that

Hmmm I’m done with this scene do I push through with this next one too I lowkey wanna

Oh no wait I actually have no clue how I want to do this scene and what I want to include lemme think real quick

Sope childhood friends

PAST NAMSEOK??? I THINK YES

So.
I’m at 5.5k suddenly and I’m gonna take a break now \\o/ bc food

Now. Do I write this one more scene? I kind of want to but I might have to think a little more before I can write it? Hmmm maybe I’ll just do it anyways lmao

Just reread the prompt I got and :sweats: uhm well I think my person wanted a different pov but like hhhhh I wanna write Yoongi sorry I hope they will still like it

There’s way less mystery than my person probably wanted hsjjsjdjsjwjs it’s okay tho I like it and it’s kinda soft so that’s a plus right?
Anyways back to finishing this scene I’m so slow with writing when I have to figure out the plot at the same time

I am absolutely jealous of the house how I imagine it in this fic. Like. Seriously. Bruh.

Ugh how to make it apparent that ** is a ***** without it seeming like ** is just massively ******* for him bc he’s ******** ** *** which HE IS TOO SO LIKE

OH NO I FORGOT MIN HOLLY DO I GO BACK AND EDIT HIM IN OR BUT IT WOULD BE SO CUTE AO I REALLY SHOULD

Okay you know what I wrote another 450 words I can stop here and continue tmrw bc my concentration has absolutely completely left me
We’re at 6k tho so

guess what

not gonna leave you guessing lol I just came home from my friend's bonfire evening and coincidentally the next scene is the first bonfire scene as I dubbed it so I'm trying to get it finished yay

am I taking inspiration from the wonderful evening I had? Absolutely
Will anyone except for my one friend who might read over it and potentially my brother if he wants to read it ever know? yes because I'm telling you right now

dfghjk, should I add the "he's so sexy when he's bossing other people around" or should I not hsdj,fgk.hmfdfsfg It's about Jimin for the record

oh god fuck I've been infected I just wanted to make a reference to how Jimin's toes are cute sadfghjfhdgsfad I hate it here I hate it here I hate it here I'm absolutely blaming vmin fic I hate it

You know what? fuck it I'm still gonna write it I can edit it out if necessary fghjkl (god so this happens when I write at this time yeah I should have known)

"Yoongi has so many questions about that statement but he decides to keep them to himself and instead take another sip of tea to hide his smile behind the cup."

Have I mentioned that I like to project onto my protagonists?

OH GOD I FORGOT THAT I FORGOT ABOUT HOLLY SHIT I NEED TO EDIT HIM IN NEXT WRITING SESSION OR I WILL FORGET AGAIN HHH BC I WANT HIM IN THERE

Fun fact: I think I have given up on keeping this under 10k bc I still have uh like important plot to write so like... lets get it no-one complain pls

BUT ALSO THAT MEANS I CAN START WITH MY EMO BTS FEST FIC ONLY LATER BC I WANNA FINISH THIS FIRST SO LIKE I CRY SOMEONE SEND ME LOVE NOW

Me, waiting to reveal that Jimin is a ***** and Taehyung is a ******

it's too soon in this scene bc they don't know yg well enough but also it's the next step to drive the plot & I wanna write it bc important and like hhhhhhhh I hate it here I only technically have like 4 plot points I need written but knowing myself that's gonna be like 8 scenes

Already wrote 1k today which was my goal and it's going so slow it's terrible but like also I really wanna finish this scene

done for today! Also I want everyone to know that I have planned 6 other works for this series today and I will absolutely suffer :)

I started a scenes thing for this one too bc yup organisation is sexy (had to ugly edit the opacity so y’all can’t read the actual words gahjsjsjs)
Colour coding to come probably as soon as I know what I’ll colour code for

I'm actually enjoying writing this A LOT because the deadline is super relaxed for me so no time pressure and I made the decision to write this purely for fun so no pressure for it to actually be the best work or anything
I also went in without a detailed plot or anything

the entire thing has just been writing something I enjoy without ANY pressure and honestly? I think it'll turn out pretty nicely bc of that so I'm exited to have it finished (hopefully the first draft this week!! I can do this!!)

also fghsjodfkgh I write in the global sprint a lot bc I don't wanna bother anyone to write at the same time with me and ngl there's the funniest ppl always
today goes to user lostmeow with the status "trying so hard"
I feel you user lostmeow, I feel you

now. would this be a fic of yours truly if it didn't have a throwing up scene :)

I'm talking so much shit asdfdgfhj I don't actually have that much throwing up in my published fics so this like,,, may sound weird lmao but also I do have a theme of throwing up scenes in my works overall so like I do get to say this regardless

"He stirs the potion once again. Looks at the way it swirls and shines. It doesn't even look like it'd taste that bad. Yoongi even kind of /wants/ to drink it. It's /shiny/."
wertzuj and the cat jumped out lmao Yoongi kitty I don't make the rules

bro I just changed how I imagined the fence and hhhhh I want the house from this au I hate it I hate it I hate it

short break for food and coincidentally I JUST hit 1k

oh my god accidental cuddle scene? should I?

also hhhhh the picture of this scene is literally the cutest thing ever I can't wait until I can share it it's adorable and I wanna cry

oh no I actually have to decide if I want the accidental cuddle scene now or not hhhhh

I might actually maybe not do it how I had planned it? I think without the waking up cuddling part it's more organic AND more realistic hm

sdfgfhgjhkj 5 bts themed users sprinting with me rn, hello to you

oh no I'm giving myself feelings for the vmin prequel of this one oh no oh no oh no my heart aches so much for them that prequel is an angst fest but like in a good achey kind of way and hhhhh wanna write (okay first finish this pls, dipshit)

okay so I ended the scene, wrote 1.7k today and I came to the conclusion that I need more ****** yg and ***** jk action bc that is the central point hello??

sdfdghtgjzuhk this is at 9k oh man so much for keeping it below 10k this'll never work out

New goal: keep it under 15k

One thing I can say already is that I’ll def miss them when I’m done with this and that I am kind of a little happy that i kind of want to make it into a series bc these versions of the characters are just so nice I love them

Decision against the accidental cuddle scene and also against the *** yg scene it's a sad day fellas but I promise there'll be cuddling and *** yg later on if not in this work then in one of the others in the series

okay but like. what if silver hair jm and black hair yg

hm okay so I'm writing but it's not really anything good
Wrote 300 words but I don't really like them all that much? So I'll finish this scene up later bc I think my brain is kind of exhausted rn after today

I have let it rest and now we’re gonna finish this scene hopefully

oh I see what my brain is doing. Apparently the whole "tae and jm get each other gifts" is now brain canon for me and it will probably be mentioned with the mugs in every story
oh well

oh this is really a vmin scene and Taehyung isn't even in the room with them help
This is why I'm not allowed to write vmin bc I only end up having them talk about how much they love each other like hhhhh who would want to read that mushy stuff??? (me. I want to read it.)

...
you know...
sometimes I come up with combinations of words and then I cry
...

I'M ONLY CRYING BC I KNOW THEIR BACKSTORY BUT THE READER WON'T AND AAAAA I WANT TO WRITE THE BACKSTORY ALREADY BUT I CANT I HATE THIS

inner child piano version is playing and I'm writing about Taetae and my eyes maybe are a little bit leaking

oh yg is an oblivious dumbass in this okay got it

Yoongi you don't even know what you're talking about but still saying the right thing and my heart
when I write the backstory to this someone has to come hug me please please please

this was not how I wanted this scene to go??? hello???
I'm done with it and I really really like it but also ??? can't my story do what I tell it? please?

okay. just got reminded of that I'll end up having to choose a title. boom. what do I do with that

okay but real talk. I'm writing the uh kind of key scene rn? It's not gonna be my fav or anything but it's the one that'll change the way the story goes like 180 and it'll give the solution for the entire problem the story revolves around and hm yes
hope I can keep the rest short

So do I make this scene light or angst? I could do both very easily

Think I’ll do light bc the prequel will be angsty enough and I originally wanted the tone of this entire piece to be kind of light
