Give me the title of a story I've never written (in a fandom that you know I can write in), and feedback telling me what you liked best about it, and I will tell you any of: the first sentence, the last sentence, the thing that made me want to write it, the biggest problem I had while writing it, why it almost never got posted, the scene that hit the cutting room floor but that I wish I'd been able to salvage, or something else that I want readers to know.

Time to put my imagination skills to use lol

I love that one story that you wrote called um lets see....oh Murder in Chicago and I love the fact that its full of mystery and suspense and well pretty much insanity. I mean who knew that Critic and his twin ATG is the same killer and just well switched clothes and stuff while ATG was being his manipulative baster self. Also poor Nerd losing his sanity and he seems to be a little naive with the not really believing and refusing to believe the fact that his one true love is a insane killer. Ans that was creepy to find out that Critic and ATG were part of a group of killers looking to kill the contributors

I think what made you to write it was well not a lot of TGWTG kill them all mystery fics in the fandom and I have no idea what made you to almost not post it.


and the last thing I have to say before posting is.....*looks at what she wrote*.......that I need to stop reading Seven Little Killers in the Hetalia fandom.....*leaves*

First sentence: Contrary to popular belief, it wasn't a dark and stormy night; if anything, it was cloudless, and a full moon was up -- the perfect time for werewolves to go hunting (at least, if you were into that sort of thing).

Last sentence: Because as much as the Nerd wanted to, he couldn't quite make himself believe he and Chick were on the same side.

What made me want to write it: Angst, tainted love, split personality disorder...I think anyone who's known me long enough knows I'm a sucker for that stuff. (Then again, we all are. :)

Why it almost never got posted: Because even for the Treehouse, it's pretty dark.

That, and it was kind of hard to pull off Critic's insanity; you'd keep thinking of Critic as Gollum from LORD OF THE RINGS. "My precioussss...", et cetera et cetera. In fact, writing mentally ill!Critic made me realize, almost, how close canon!Critic and Gollum really are. XD

Biggest problem I had writing it: Because besides the whole Critic-as-Gollum thing mentioned above, there was also the fact the Distressed Watcher kept wanting a cameo. For fuck's sake, Watcher, stay out of my fics! XD

Scene that hit the cutting room floor: A scene where Linkara thought Iron Liz was cheating on him with Critic. I would have liked to salvage it (it's suitably dark), but let's say I cut it because (a) Linkara came off too much like Othello in that scene and (b) it's dumb. So on second thought...I'm *glad* I didn't salvage it. XD

That was funny lol and if this was a real fic I would read it, I like dark fics lol

I though the commenter was that one that made the fic up?

Actually, no. Not really. It's kind of the other way around. :)

And thank you! :D
