Backwards Round 12, Hour 47

[lolmac]

Hurrah!  It is Hour 47, a most wonderful hour in which we may accomplish many amazing things!

The first amazing thing is that it is not Hour 46.  I looked over the list and saw that we had Hour 32 twice, which has thrown us off.

Anyway, I'm actually posting.  Yay!  I have yet to accomplish anything productive this week beyond simply being around, but we have to start somewhere.

How are you doing?  Do we need to send the FTL Rescue Penguins to assist you?  Fetch soap for an invocation of the Shower Muse?  Bake cookies?  Cookies are always good.

Well, that's 1003 words in the past two hours, so I'm quite pleased with that. :)

[lolmac]

Excellent progress! Would you like cookies?

[jjpor.livejournal.com]

I would, yes! Faster than light cookies, if you have them.

[lolmac]

They arrived at your door approximately 47 minutes ago. Bon appetit!

I keep getting distracted. Bah. *opens kink bigbang*

[lolmac]

It's much better to be distracted by kink, not from kink. For what kink is your current item?

[synnerxx.livejournal.com]

This is true. XD Just kink_bigbang in general. There's a lot of different kinks in it. The most predominant one being a D/s relationship.

[lolmac]

Ah, sorry -- I was getting it confused with kink bingo.

[synnerxx.livejournal.com]

No worries. I have one prompt left on that too for a bingo. XD

I got another 500 words of thinky thoughts and also ate dinner last hour. :-) I think I might just speak about emotional and verbal abuse, as that seems to be what's on my mind... then I can save Rocks for the ten-minute expository speech topic (I can totally talk enthusiastically about rocks for ten minutes) and Sailing Ships for the persuasive (I'm rather fond of "we should have a partly sail-driven mercantile fleet!", but it'll take a few days at the library to put that one together all properly.)

*thinking out loud*

[lolmac]

You could always propose putting abusive families onto sailing ships and then dropping rocks on them, but that's a horrible thing to do to the pretty ships.

Just finished my communion with the shower muse, so here's hoping that my fic will actually go like it is in my head.

Good luck to everyone!

[lolmac]

Excellent! Good luck!

503 new words. Mythology building is about done. Tempting of a main character is next.

And I totally noticed that we suddenly jumped ahead. Ack! Oh, well, I'll just get to the neglected chores sooner that way.

Yeah. I noticed that we were on the wrong hour, and looked back over the round and saw where the duplicate post had occured.

Of course, that means we now have an extra unused Hour 46 still in the original wrapping, so maybe we can use that after the round officially ends.

I got several rows done, including the final increase row of the second sleeve, and pondered what happens next and got good advice on how to find out what happens next. So this hour I'm going to attempt to dive in to the middle of what happens next.

[lolmac]

When writing must pause, there is always knitting. Or crocheting. Or cookies.

[http://users.livejournal.com/idlewild_/]

And knitting if done properly makes for the alpha waves which should help with the plotting. If there weren't people here being interesting and talking and trying to order dinner.

[lolmac]

Oh, darn those interesting people!

[http://users.livejournal.com/idlewild_/]

I know! They are being funny and engaging! Darn them!

Another 479 words for a total of 1054 today, 1544 for the rush so far. I think I may be done with that bingo square. :-)

I suppose I could have a go at another one. Something pornier....

[lolmac]

Something pornier? Gee, do you think you could?

Great progress so far!

[sid]

Considering the almost total lack of porn in the "vanilla" square, I think anybody could! :-D

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

I'm here! Which means I have around an hour and a half before fic_rush ends in which to try to write something. FTL Rescue Penguins would be very helpful, yes, please send!

[lolmac]

*sends a Super Deluxe package of FTL Rescue Penguins*

We also have an unused Hour 46 that we can deploy at the end of the round, or possibly trade in for bonus points.
