conflicted feelings!!!!
Apr. 28th, 2012 10:37 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
GUYS, Himitsu no Arashi-chan this week had Arashi living together in a house?!?! WHO AUTHORIZED THIS AND WHY WASN'T I CONSULTED?!?!?!?!?!?! okay no of course i wouldn't be consulted that is ridiculous, i feel ridiculous
SO THE THING IS that I'm writing a huge story now where Arashi lives in a house together (mentioned in the previous post)...
WHAT DO I DO WITH THIS NEW INFORMATION? I'm only like 2/3 finished the fic!! D:
My fear is that if I watch the episode (and come on, now I have to watch it), I'll have to change huge parts of my fic because my characterization isn't right (and come on, it won't be, because fic Arashi in a house vs ACTUAL ARASHI in a house?!?! what is even the contest here). I'm in favour of improving stories to fit characterizations but guys I worked so hard on this one, I really don't want to up and rewrite the whole thing. T_____T i'm actually distraught right now
WHAT SHOULD I DO:
a) post one part of it RIGHT NOW
b) wait till I finish to post all of it, but DO NOT WATCH THE EPISODE
c) wait till I finish to post all of it, and WATCH THE EPISODE, and fix what needs to be fixed
d) curl up in a ball and cry a bit
e) this is not a big deal, you are crazy
Opinions about the state of my life please!!
ps thank you
lysanderpuck for the heads up about this!!! is any group going to sub this ep?
EDIT: okay so i'm watching the episode now unsubbed but it's only Nino, Jun and a guest (I love Ueto Aya, she is goooorgeous) so that is not...as bad as I'd thought? Bad, as in, "toppling the Jenga game of my fic TO THE GROUND." Okay, um. Yeah, I will still need to think on things.

damn
I think that is exactly what I needed to hear, omg
aahhhhhhhh thank you thank you ;A; you are SO KIND WTF
And your suggestion is a great, fantastic, amazing idea. I've only started watching the first bit of the show, and I might stop, since I'm not understanding much anyway. I just got to the part where they drank Aiba's disgusting juice. (What was it, btw?)
I'm really considering posting part 1 of my fic, though, just because it would force me to post the rest of it sooner rather than later. I don't know when this segment is going to be retired... it might go on for at least a month, right? And I don't want to wait until the segment is over to edit everything. /o\
Thanks so much for your advice, bb! It helped so much. :)
(And, hey there. ♥)

Date: 2012-04-28 04:30 pm (UTC)But the other thing I don't like doing is posting an unfinished fic, so................... :|
wow how do i ever get any writing done with the amount of emo i constantly emit, it's a miracle and a half
You are just the sweetest, most nicest ever :'( I refuse to take time away from your finals studying (...she says as she lures you into a conversation on LJ...) but I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to have your input on the story sometime. When you're done exams! I think I will actually post part 1 up, but my friend

Date: 2012-04-28 11:24 pm (UTC)Massiel is so great! So so thankful I met her on LJ. Her emails always make me smile like a crazy person.
Okay, I'll finish the rest of the fic as soon as I can and send you an email! :D Thank you again for the help wow ♥

Date: 2012-04-28 05:46 pm (UTC)And I wouldn't worry about the new corner because that's what it is, a new corner for a show. It's still staged and filmed, and I imagine there's at least a loose script they kinda follow, like "hey, let's drink something now" or "looks like it's time to eat". So I'm still convinced that what we see on the screen is not what they would be like in RL. At least not completely. Therefore, there's still so much room for personal interpretation.
BUT! If you find inspiration from this new corner (like decorating their den area with the "Ohno Fishing Club" banner/flag), by all means, use it.
Can't wait to read it!

Date: 2012-04-28 08:22 pm (UTC)I just feel bad that you are stressing so much because of my prompt and I’m happy that you seem to have liked my prompt so far and worked so hard on it. So I hope I have been at least a little bit encouraging and I’m sure I’ll love your fic, whatever direction you take it :D
(Btw, I saw on your profile that you’re located in Canada and I live in Montreal myself so I was wondering what part of Canada you’re from if you don’t mind me asking :)

Date: 2012-04-28 11:09 pm (UTC)Thank you very much for the reassurances, really, really. I can't explain why I reacted so intensely about this, other than I really am enjoying myself writing this story, and felt threatened from the show, haha... in any case, your prompt makes me very happy, so I hope the fic makes you happy too. :) I've posted part 1 on my journal now, here (http://primrosegallery.livejournal.com/10024.html), if you want to read it! Or you can wait till I finish everything; I'll be sure to message you! (Although that might still take a few weeks lmao OTL)
(You're in Montreal? MOI AUSSI!! omg wait WHAT I had no idea you were here too! I'm freaking out! :D)
no subject
Date: 2012-04-29 06:24 am (UTC)Ok, let’s say I’ll wait for the whole fic for now (but please don’t feel rushed because of me ^^; take all the time you need to complete it) tough I might not even hold out the week-end.
(And wow, you’re from Montreal too! I seriously didn’t expect that because the Canadian fans I’ve met on lj so far were mostly… well, not from Montreal. But no, seriously, I can’t believe you’re actually so close! I totally had to convert my RL friends into Arashi fans by shoving my video collection down their throat to not feel like I’m the only Arashi fan here haha xD Where have you gone to school? And I take it you speak French too? Wow, I’m so excited)
no subject
Date: 2012-04-29 09:59 pm (UTC)(Yeah, it's huge coincidence! Small world, right? I'm not originally from Montreal, I'm just here at McGill for school actually. SO MY FRENCH IS ACTUALLY TRES SHITTY lmao. Are you schooling here too?
Actually, this conversation might be better held over email. Do you have one I can reach you at?)
no subject
Date: 2012-04-30 02:26 am (UTC)(And yeah, if you're not originally from Montreal, I can see how French could be hard for you xD; I can't say I'm originally from Montreal, but I immigrated here at a very young age and I'm also schooling here now, but at UdeM in French xD I hope you're liking Montreal so far, or at least some part of it. You can reach me at lucywang_1999@yahoo.com if you want :DD)

Date: 2012-04-28 08:26 pm (UTC)because ultimately in rpf, there is not ~~100% canon. the only thing you can do is try to portray them in the way that seems truest to you, right? philosophically speaking it becomes an exercise in being okay with not knowing everything. XD (i have a friend who only writes aus for that very reason, lol.)
