My document is titled "christmas laptop" and no, that will not be the actual title. 😂
I'm a grown woman that now has it in drafts as "Some Sort of Seven Minutes in Heaven Situation" whyyyyyy. (That's because of a joke, also should not be the title unless— )

LOL, I literally, for possibly the first time, looked up what the icons that are next to works on AO3 are/mean. After having an account there since 2010 (user ID #5088).
Oh, those might be useful! 😂

Still do like where it ends up though. I should maybe write some stories where I have a plan and an ending in mind, but the moment when a plot point came to me & then an ending came to me with this one was amazing (but then it was the 1st time that really happened so I'll always think fondly of it).

It is finished! (Though I might add an epilogue.)
(The original version was 102,848 words with 12 chapters; I split two of the ridiculously long chapters which changed the chapter count to 14. Word count now is 105,699. I'm wordy.)
OMG this is sappy as hell, but there are parts that make me laugh.

I fear that summary may be misleading because as usual with my fic so far it's sappy as hell and what little plot is just a contrivance to put two characters together.
It is hilarious to me that I wrote a "ope, they'll have to kiss because reasons" fic where you just have to go with it.

"Why is it taking so long to edit this chapter oh my god," she said, before checking the word count and discovering it was over 17,000 words. 😂
And now I've split another chapter into two chapters. Egads. I wasn't thinking about this stuff much when writing that first story.

I swear fixing/revising an old fic is harder than writing a new one would be. Though I've come around from hating it back to liking it—there's good stuff at the end. Can I rewrite it though and make it work? Has to be easier than the ungodly chapter I just worked on egads.
