An addiction to hands and feet

[extemporally]

I always used to be kind of shy about doing this meme -- I wrote? really?? -- but I figure my recent fic output justifies this thing, so hey! Why not!

Pick a paragraph (or any passage less than 500 words) -- it can be more than 500, if you wish! -- from any fanfic I've written, and comment to this post with that selection. I will then give you a DVD commentary on that snippet: what I was thinking when I wrote it, why I wrote it in the first place, what's going on in the character's heads, why I chose certain words, what this moment means in the context of the rest of the fic, lots of awful puns, and anything else that you'd expect to find on a DVD commentary track.

My fic can be found under the fic tag, bbs!

(It was either post this or talk about all the ridic stories that a Regina Spektor song makes me want, okay. Humour me!)

Yeah, definitely, that was my characterisation of Ryan Ross: everything changing and growing up, and while I wouldn't call it erroneous it is probably really obvious (references to Brendon & Spencer & Jon aside) that this was written before the split, hoo boy.

I don't regret the pretty, though! It feels like I've become more interested in other aspects of writing so my focus is on other things these days, but I definitely have moments of wishing I could write pretty things unabashedly like I used to.
