writer's block.

I swear my inspiration is bipolar -- either I have so many ideas I don't have the time to write it all, or I rake my brain for hours and nothing happens. Gnnh. And the periods where I'm stuck are always so much longer than my fits of writing-machine-ness.

-Teamwork 3 is stuck. I have a list of things that must happen, and before I started trying to write it I also thought I had a good mental picture of what was going on. I was wrong. It's confusing, I'm not writing it percussively enough, and I'm afraid I won't reach the necessary level of epicness for a scene that contains a rampaging Kyuubi. And there's something missing to the action, but I'm not sure what.

... oh. =__=; Perhaps just the fact that the scene is Sakura POV as she runs away while Sasuke is fighting. Which, uh, considering that she's still going "oh shit what happened to my chakra it burns oww oww oww dizzy" and the whole hill is sinking underground is a pretty damn good idea, but -- how can I describe the epic epicness of Kyuubi going BWAHAHAHAHA *PWNS* when she's not even looking his way?! And how come she doesn't try to help Sasuke or wake up Naruto. Argh. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Also my reason why Team Summons decided to stick with Sakura for the moment just doesn't work right, I've got to find a better way to present it. Argh, again.

-Teamwork Suna is... I don't know. I have Sasuke's scene, but it feels... not IC enough? A bit trivial? I think I'm having cognitive dissonance between the characters as they are when Kyuubi bursts out, and the characters as they were back when they were dragging their feet to Sand country and being kinda sulky and cute and stuff. I can't judge it right.

(alos I have two scenes where Naruto gets hit on by a kunoichi, but when Kigane did that Naruto reacted as if it was his first time, so unless I present it right I can't use this scene, what with the suna thing supposedly happening before the chuunin exam. Stupid chronology, who needs that? DX )

-Cyborgness: Still not sure what the hell Naruto was doing while Sasuke searched for him, though Jo helped give me ideas. Now I've got to wait for them to develop a bit before I can tell whether they'll work. Crossed Wires is always so hard to write. ~__~

-mermaidiness. My biggest problems right now are
1) the beginning is boring, blahblah they meet and socialize yay... boring. booooring.

2) I probably need to find a way to link Arun and Krish with what the big bad want to take from the waterworld, and THAT would lead to them meeting the pirates, instead of a more or less chance meeting. Also when the Thing turns up it won't look like I just came up with it on the spot. perhaps they could talk of the ancient technology, at least stuff that's vaguely related to The Thing... or argue about it... maybe Krish wants to go and look for it (incidentally so are the pirates.) But if I make Krish an agent of the evil corporation from the beginning she'll come across as "bad guy" instead of "unpleasant colleague" and then Arun seeing her die and going NOOOOO will have a lot less impact. People will be thinking "oh, he shouldn't whine so much, she was an evil bitch, how can he still care" instead of "ouch, poor guy."

... this is way too confusing, my trying not to spoil too bad means I can't explain properly. Argh. OKAY from the beginning.

NotReallyEvilAsAWholeButKindOfGreedyCorp (henceforth named Corp) is funding part of the University expedition going to Waterworld (still needs name.) Arun = marine biology doctorate, not interesting to Corp. Krish = Geologist = interesting to Corp. But I don't think they started really cultivating her yet, so it's not like they could ask her to do them a favor by going toward Sunken City and picking up whatever fun long-forbidden data/technology she happens to find.

But perhaps they could oh oh argh no idea stay with me what was I thinking I'm forgetting no -- AHA. They could formulate is as "please could you take a quick look at Sunken City to determine why it sank and whether that could happen again nowadays, because you know we're gonna want to build on the islands and we wouldn't want to repeat the first colonists' mistakes. Just a quick look, you understand. you're already supposed to take random samples, hm? Surely one sample in those waters wouldn't hurt. ... I wonder how damaged the city really is? 9__9"

Then Liadan can freak a bit when she realizes where they're going because for her this is cursed grounds and they're not letting her go. *__*

3) why on Earth are they alone on the planet, no, in the end it bugs me that everyone else is on some other planet that wasn't even colonized -- what was so much more interesting on the moon base than on the planet? Argh.

4)Why is Liadan going with Arun and Krish? Why are Arun and Krish letting her? I have an idea that maybe Krish doesn't want to let her go yet because she needs to make sure either them or Liadan hasn't contaminated the rest with previously unknown sicknesses, which could also add some stress to the situation when Liadan realizes she's imprisoned. She so wouldn't get the "it's only until we know you're not sick!" thing.

Anyone interested in the beginning of a Dragon Ball Z fic I'm not even sure I'll complete? It's a Saiyajin on Earth AU, which has been done a bazilion times before but I love it so much .__. They drop by only a few months after Goku and Chichi get married, though, and i'm not sure I've seen it before. At first I wanted to do a series of loosely connected moments/scenes in the same AU, but I'm not sure it will work right with the new bunnies trying to make themselves a place in it. *beats Bardock over the head with a shovel*

"what was so much more interesting on the moon base than on the planet?"

Old laboratories with "lost" technology from the days of the colonization?

As I recall you have this planet as being interesting because of mining, depending on how you have the moons form you may have mines without all that annoying water in the way.

"Crossed Wires is always so hard to write."

But it's full of awesome. :)

No, the laboratories with the interesting stuff are all on the planet, underwater. Alas! But then again maybe they wanted to make sure about the easy-access stuff first before taking out the submarines and wetsuits. XD

They haven't started to really mine yet -- so far the corporation is here to look around and make reports while the university guys do research. but research on what, on that moon? what do you research on a moon? I don't think it really has much atmosphere. DX

♥ .__.

Hmm, I suppose then it depends on the makeup of the moons. For instance, our moon is composed mostly of felsic minerals (anorthocite in specific, if I recall my classes so many years ago correctly) which by itself isn't worth much, but with the right equipment and a relatively small and continuously recycled supply of flouric acid you can mine oxygen from it. Which means air and fuel without having to descend into a planet's steeper gravity well.

Also, lower gravity for experiments, and contained environments for things you wouldn't want to let loose on a planet accidentally, biological agents.

... *_____* so they could be the ... laboratory study types... and they send some people down to the planet to get samples and come back from time to time...?

ohhh this is perfect. Thank you~ *sparklesparkle*

Glad to be of service. :)

For you're concern about Krish, would it be possible for her to be unknowingly aiding the bad guys? If she died right after she realized and was all "Oh, shit!" and Arun saw that then he could still be upset.

No, it's not really how it happens -- thing is, from Krish's point of view, the corporation isn't bad at all. Maybe a little ruthless, but they're a business, and they have laws and regulations and they're civilized. And krish is kind of on the side that goes "the mermaids don't even use those rocks, and the corp wouldn't pollute at all, so why does it matter so much." She's not 100% in agreement with them -- but considering that she meets them when they save her from being captured by the pirates, she thinks better them than the pirates. Whereas Arun was indeed captured, and then stuff happens and he realized the pirates weren't so bad after all. I wanted to play with the fact that from the limited set of information they were starting with, neither of them was really 100% wrong and Arun could see where she was coming from, that's what made her an interesting foil. From her point of view, it's really not half as bad as Arun thinks it is, and Arun kind of overreacts on some point.

Ah, well, if you made it clear that that's how Arun feels then I don't think too many people won't understand where he's coming from.

*waves hand* As long as there's no smut, I'm willing to beta~

XD;;; which? I'm not sure any of them are ready for betaing.

...I may have misinterpreted your last point re DBZ. Um.. >>

Actually, discussing it with someone could help. ^^ But it's not going to be just a "fix what's there" job, i'm still at the stage where I'm trying to build the underlying structure of the fic. (though the chunk that's already written could do with some normal betaing, too. XD) I was just planning to end the scene some way and timeskip to something else, but then Bardock wanted to hang out with Chichi of all people, and that means I need help developing what on earth could happen there. Blah.

Aha, I've done concept beta-ing a couple times, but I know I'm not the best at it...

Wanna prod at what i've got anyway? ^__^

Sure~

"because she needs to make sure either them or Liadan hasn't contaminated the rest with previously unknown sicknesses"
---> Imprisoned Liadan is WIN. But you could this the other way too, I guess. Maybe Arun has a cold (or is sneezing a lot more than he should be anyway), and Krish and Arun want to make sure that Liadan hasn't caught it and that she doesn't go back and infect everybody else on the planet. Then Arun and Liadan would both be ship-bound.... Hey. What if they've confirmed that Liadan is sick (maybe from a disease that humans never succumb to these days because we're totally immune to it now), and her body can't deal with it properly because it's never encountered it before? Then we have hurt/comfort between Arun/Liadan, as well as Imprisoned!Frightened!Liadan. Just a thought. ;)

Also? I don't think the beginning is boring. Plenty of books have a "boring" beginning, but it's fine because everyone knows it's set up. And slice-of-life is nice. =)
If you wanna add action/conflict anyway though, I guess it can't hurt.

I approve of the not-chancely-meeting with pirates. ;)

"it bugs me that everyone else is on some other planet that wasn't even colonized -- what was so much more interesting on the moon base than on the planet"
---> How do you mean?

With your concerns about Krish, why don't you make her friends with Liadan? So although she's all for the Corp coming in to use these minerals that the mermaids aren't using, she's perfectly nice, maybe even compassionate (in a "stupid Arun, how did he even get her involved! Poor thing..." kind of way) to Liadan (who is confused at how readily Arun listens to her, and concludes that she must be an older cousin/mother figure. Or something, she reckons XDD).

And about what you want to call the planet: Arun could know it as some random number in a galaxy, and Liadan would know it as some corruption of earth/gaia or would just call it "the world". or "this land/sea" (as in, not the sky/of the heavens like the moons and sun). Or something.

Just a few ideas. ;)

And so you know, all the effort you put into Crossed Wires is appreciated. The fic is just that good. =)

I'm interested in the DBZ fic!!!

Oh, and re Teamwork: Isn't the Suna fic supposed to sort of steady them both as characters and as a... couple/threesome (ie. the relationship bit...) So Sasuke sniping at Kakashi is a sign that he's loosened up and relaxed a bit (as a person), and then Kakashi or Naruto or someone could mention this and trip him right back into his shell. =p
But I personally think it's a good thing, and think you are most definitely

And Sakura doesn't help out because she's worried for the baby, because it feels like her stomach is burning up, and Oh shit what if the baby is being harmed right now??!! And while she's panicking/clutching her stomach in pain, Sasuke could come in to protect her while she's down, and we'd get SasuSaku. OR she could be helping him out, either way would work. Then she'd look up ~~through the haze of pain and panic etc~~, and be all OH SHIT. IS THAT KYUUBI??? *cue KYUUBI RAMPAGING IN ALL HIS EPIC GLORY*

HMMMMM yeah I guess, but it still feels kinda weird to go from one to the other. x_x; needs tweaking.

XD; oh, sure, her not helping with the fight can be excused away with a bazilion reasons, but in the end it's still kinda sucky that she doesn't even try, no matter why. That part sucks, needs to be rebuilt. Hopefully it won't take me two years. x______x;

"but in the end it's still kinda sucky that she doesn't even try, no matter why"
Unfortunately, that's exactly what I was thinking while typing it. T_T

And uh, please mentally delete that random sentence up there I forgot to delete myself...

Yeah, Krish presents it as "we could make her sick! unleash a plague upon her people!" but really she frets first about the plagues the mermaid carries. XD

I'm not sure Liadan should get sick, because it means every merperson and two-tails they get into contact with might also get the same sickness, and some of them might die from it, and the "plague carrier" angle, while also dramatic and plot-making, doesn't fit very well with the rest of the story. Also if she gets sick then she'll still be sick when they meet the pirates and they'll have to take care of her, and, I don't know, she's the main character, her being the "take care of me" type bugs me. She's already somewhat submissive, I don't want her to be the one who has things done to her instead of doing.

But at the same time her not getting sick doesn't seem very realistic! They've had so long to develop their own strains of things. T__T Auugh.

---> I mean, the colonists settled on waterworld -- they mostly used the biggest moon as a base of operations to keep their communication relays and everything. No one really lived there. (though, three moons, maybe they did something on the other two too... hmm.)

When I came up with Krish she was kind of antisocial -- her concept is that she likes rocks better than people. That could still change, but I didn't make her friendly because Liadan would bond with her and not with Arun. That could change if I get a better idea of things, though. I could make her not like people, but in an avoidant, quiet way instead of a snarky scowling way, so she could still be sort of nice to Liadan, but it wears on her... Hm. Also it would make her more sympathetic later. HMMMM! possible! ♥
(Liadan: ... is she your pod leader's mate? your... father's mate? ... your big sister? I DON'T GET IT D: )

XD I like your name idea, but I still need to come up with what the indigenous people call it. Maybe "the sea" since that's where they live. Alas earthsea is already taken. XDD

"XD I like your name idea, but I still need to come up with what the indigenous people call it. Maybe "the sea" since that's where they live. Alas earthsea is already taken. XDD"

What was the primary language of the colonists? If it's not English than it's really easy to just take the word for "sea/ocean" in that language and corrupt it. Or a phrase like "world sea". Shorten the phrase, shift a few sounds... s to z or f or th for instance, or clip or elongate a vowel.

Hee, nice idea. They speak some kind of Neo-English, but I could also use some kind of gaelic... must research research research. x__x

Another idea is that the team that originally scouted the planet might have given it a name that the colonists adopted while they were planning their settlement. Pick the name of any sea goddess/god and then fold, spindle, and otherwise mangle to your taste. :)

*butts nose in* :D

Concerning sick mermaids: Maybe she's sick with some sort of flu or cold or something that is relatively common for her people? Or is some sort of zoonosis? (That is, a disease that an animal can be sick with and carry, and that a human can catch and be sick with, or the other way around.. only with mermaids instead of humans.) So.. y'know.. Maybe she caught something from a dolphin or some such.

Er, I'm diverting from my point.. Maybe she gets sick before she meets them... but doesn't display symptoms until AFTER she's hanging out with them for a while. And she can be all "I'm FINE. It's just a dolphin-cold. It'll be gone in a day" and they can be all "OMG, you caught my sniffles! You'll kill everyone!"

As for the unrealistic possibility of her NOT getting sick... well.. most sci-fi stories, even those involving first contact, rarely involve diseases getting passed around unless it's a major plot point. not saying that makes it 'right', but it's something to think about.

Alternatively, maybe you can come up with some sort of reasons as to why she's resistant. If they have gills, that means they, at least partially, filter water to breath. Which means that they have to filter EVERYTHING in the water. Which means water, urine, solid wastes, microscopic aquatic life (plankton, etc), bits of dead things, a little bit of sand, minerals, etc etc etc. They'd have some heavy duty work cut out for them.

So, maybe they have some heavy duty enzymes or digestive fluids or something that is part of their immune system that attacks and dissolves (or absorbs, or whatever) bits of things that get breathed in. So, bits of dead fish and seaweed and stuff get broken down before they can rot in the gill structure... And at the same time, the gills would need to be able to handle any bacteria or virus-type structures that come in on the bits of debris as well as the debris it's self. So they could have some sort of heavy duty immune system.

In humans, the first line of defense against infection is the skin. There are a number of other barriers (physical [skin, etc], mechanical [coughing, sneezing, etc], and chemical [stomach acids, out out anti-microbial secretions, etc]) to prevent illness before you get to antibodies and such. So maybe for mer-folk the biggest vulnerability was their gills, so evolution (or whatever) focused heavily on installing defenses in the gills.

( ha... maybe they occasionally get, er.. the aquatic equivalent of a hair ball where they have to 'cough' out a small collection of 'breathed in' debris that they can't break down easily--larger bits of sand, rock, etc. isn't that sexy? XD)

Of course.. She'd be breathing air when she's being exposed to these new illnesses, but maybe the gills and lungs are somehow interconnected.. I don't know if you've ever figured out how they breath and stuff. :) So maybe they use the same organ for both? (water in through the mouth, into the lungs, out the rib-based gill slits?) ... The planet's above air areas would probably be very humid, making it easy for any mermaids to hang out on or around the surface for a while (if they chose to).. the moisture in the air being sufficient to keep the gills wet enough to work, especially if the body will secrete liquid to keep the tissues sufficiently lubricated and hydrated... Resulting in a creature who has MUCH higher water intake needs then a human. (which means they could probably drink water to keep themselves hydrated, and thus their gills, OR take a big drink/breath of water once in a while to do the same. I figure most would do both. Y'know. if they were needing to breath air extendedly.)

er.. short version of the above: Maybe their gill structures are interconnected with, or actually replace lungs, and happen to also contain a bodily system that helps to clean and maintain the gill structures, as well as fighting off infections... rendering them highly resistant to most airborne and waterborne pathogens.

Oh, as for names of the place... I think Liadan would just know it as "here" or something. I mean, I, at least, don't make regular reference to 'the land'... Maybe they can refer to it as "above" and "below".. to separate land and sea, when such distinctions are needed... Certain regions might have more specific names.. The Cave-lands, the deep place, the reef, etc... Unless there's a global culture (and maps), there's not a whole lot of need for specific names--the great barrier reef, the marinara trench—as each region will have it's own features known to those who live there. “The mountain” is good enough when you live near one mountain, after all. Maybe there's a more specific name for it, but it only gets used about half the time. And depending on who's talking about it, it might be called something different. ..But still, that's talking about individual geographic features.

I think I read that the sea dwelling mermaids worship the sun and moons? Perhaps they've got a deity for the planet or the ocean—sort of how Gaia or Terra are Earth goddesses, or mother godesses... Also related to this idea is how Earth—our planet—is also a word that means soil or dirt. So perhaps some word that means water in that respect. “Aqua” or “Achtwooh” (H2O)... so.. yeah.

Just my 2 cents. :D

I... could keep rambling about these ideas, but I'm honestly trying (HA!) to keep it short. What I'm saying here is... if you like any of these ideas and are interested in more of my babblings about them... or if you'd like another sounding board for for ideas, and feedback, etc.. I'd be happy to comply. :) Your posts make me think about ideas and details about things and I love it ^^

XD;;; Well, your ideas are great, the problem is that she doesn't have gills. She has slightly bigger lungs and they're a lot more efficient at extracting and using the oxygen (like 90% instead of our current 30%), but she still has to resurface every fifteen minutes (provided she doesn't make any violent effort). Actually in matters of genetics, she could technically have a child with a totally normal human, and the child would live. (granted there's a very high risk he'd be deformed and stuff.)

Also she's just not going to stay with either krish and arun or the pirates very long in the grand scheme of things -- there is no time for her to be listless and nose-drippy. That's why I'm so hesitant about a sickness plot -- i'm just not sure it wouldn't totally mess up the timeline I have in mind.

I wonder if it's possible that the scientists's society has developed something that would kill any dormant, carried but not expressed, or leftover viruses/sicknesses/whatever in someone before letting them go on trips to new planets with unknown flora and fauna... Would it cause problems for their own bodies? Would they lose the ability to make antibodies for it? I just don't know enough to have a clear idea. x__x but if i could do something like that then they wouldn't worry about the merpeople catching something from them. Hrrm. I don't know. ~__~

... RESEARCH TIME!

Hey, but if she'd HAD gills, it would have been awesome XD Just out of curiosity, how do they sleep then? Kinda like dolphins? drifting up to the surface every now and then?

as for sickness... not EVERY cold results in listlessness and stuff. --or since you're looking for her to be stuck with them while going somewhere... maybe the ship or boat or whatever it is is kept at a cooler temperature then outside is and she just gets a litle sneezy, and sniffley (and nippley? XD) until someone realizes that she's not sick, she's just cold. :)

"I wonder if it's possible that the scientists's society has developed something that would kill any dormant, carried but not expressed, or leftover viruses/sicknesses/whatever in someone before letting them go on trips to new planets with unknown flora and fauna...

I just don't know enough to have a clear idea. x__x but if i could do something like that then they wouldn't worry about the merpeople catching something from them. Hrrm. I don't know. ~__~"

What about giving them several immune system boosters, vitamins, cleansers, etc, then putting them in a completly sterile/isolation environment for maybe a month or something, while they run blood tests and stuff to make sure that they're not carrying anything or coming down with anything. (I figure a month because I don't imagine anyone would have intentionally created a drug that would SPEED UP the "incubation time" on an illness.. and if it COULD do that, it'd probably wreak havoc with the rest of the body's systems. :D

They can spend the month doing research about the place they're going to go, making plans and scheduals and charts, etc... as well as get to know, a bit, the other people who will be going with them via computer terminals or something. They'd get more immunoboosters and vitamins and stuff while there.. to make sure that they don't CATCH anything either.

I figure everyone (almost) would HATE this period, but whoever's in change of those sorts of things DEMANDS that it be done after some litle incident where an explorer with the sniffles was responsible for wiping out 90% of some alien world's sentient population over the course of a week. ;)

This would also remove the potential issues of hindering antibody production or stuff.

It's not a perfect system (what with people like traders and space pirates and stuff running around), but I figure no one is SUPPOSED to go to an unknown world without permission, and definetly no one who's unauthorized is supposed to make first contact etc.. but it'd be unenforceable. :)

They usually sleep on floaty things with their upper body over the water, or on reefs. (dolphins don't sleep actually. XD different sections of their brains alternately go active or in sleep mode. it's so cool *__*)

Oooooohh. You know, the month of isolation could totally be the same month it takes for the trip through space to come to the planet. X3333

And they haven't discovered a new, abandoned world in centuries so they have no clue what to do about it. XDDDDD

♥

Mmm.. I was going to say something about how fragile coral reefs are, but it would seem that they're not quite as fragile as I was raised to believe (in hawaii)... at least, so says a brief searching of the internet. Still, if there's any sort of waves or steady of conflicting currents, sleeping ON a reef (under water) would be kinda painful.. I like the floaty thingies. XD Maybe some sort of indigenous plantlife that puffs up when touched to make it hard to swallow? Maybe not. :D

I didn't know that about dolphins--that's quite cool. The 'sleeping with half a brain open' is just awesome. I was looking at the wikipedia page... dolphins who are completely out have this spiffy tail-kick reflex to keep their blow hole above the water--even when under anesthetics. :D that's SO awesome! ^^

Ooh.. I like the idea of the isolation month being then :D I can just see some poor sod complaining about NOT being able to go planet-side because he came down with the sniffles XDD

"What? a new planet? where did THAT come from? Well, we'll just file it here in folder 3297-B and --you want to explore it? do you have any idea how much PAPER WORK that is? well, neither do I, but I'm sure it's a lot."

on the subject of what Liadan's people call the sea, how about Brother Ocean/Sea? they name everything else with a persona/title ,the Matron, the Huntress, Father Sun(?), the Girl-child, etc.
So i figure Patriarchal society, Father title taken, Brother is the next dominate figure and the personality fits. as brothers can both help, hinder and be utterly neutral so does the ocean.
besides they're more likely to have a spiritual name for the sea then the land, because that's where the mutants live and mutants bad. XP

I would read DBZ fic, whether you continued/finished/whatevered it or not. I haven't found any new stuff of that fandom in a while, so whenever I've gotten in the mood to read some I always just go back and read the fics that got me started in fandom to begin with. It'd be nice to read something from a different writer. :3

*Snickers softly* You know, if you hit Bardock hard enough, he turns into Goku right? I would read the DBZ thing. *Nods* Always amused by good DBZ fiction....ah....I remember that fandom...it's gotten kinda tarded now, hasn't it..... Why is it that good Fandoms like GW and RW and other greats die out, but DBZ still lingers and just...is...?

i hope you figure out how to sort/deal with the issues for the next TW chapter, thats one i am looking forward to with distinct anticipation (as im sure are many others) not knowing the exact circumstances im thinking if Sakura is hurting suddenly internally (burning chakra) and disoriented (dizzy) then running isnt a far stretch and fear tinted panic can cause a person to make decisions they wouldnt ordinarily choose. to cover the 'describing Kyuubi gone wild' a simple stumble and looking back, if even only for a moment, would suffice. her training with Tsunade would have instilled in her the necessity of making both broad and subtle observations as fast as possible. a mistep, a look back and a glimpse of horror unleashed, even a second of seeing would be enough to grasp the scope of the carnage taking place i think.

if you're still offering glimpses at the DBZ story i'd love to give it a read over, i'm not particularly fond of how the series ended but it was a fav of mine for a while and i'd love to see your take on the universe.

>^-^

Not sure, but when I write a fight scene (not that I have ever posted any of them xD ) But I sometimes use brackets to show what different characters are doing. So like

Sakura running away

(Kyuubi being pwnage)

Sakura still running away.

I unno. Ummmm, that probably doesnt work for you -scratches brain- Im sorry couldnt give you anything better.
