Yeah, so...

My kids are safely away at camp, my DH is currently on an airplane flying to Anchorage and I'm alone until Saturday with only my laptop and my own universes for company.  So, hopefully I'll be able to get over the fact that Rusty broke my muse.  Well, broke her heart anyway.  I've got full chapter outlines for the next few of HM and YW? and I think I've figured out what to do with Of the Vortex Born.   And argh, I spelled a cut link word wrong and don't know how to correct it. *grumble*

Ever write yourself into a corner and the just stay there for several months?  That would be me.  I've decided the TARDIS was faking her injuries to make sure the Doctor didn't screw things up with Rose, but was forced to stay on the moon and not run away from her if things didn't go perfectly with their reunion and it won't really take two weeks of repairs to fix her.  That alone should get me out of the corner.  Luke's a smart kid and he sort of knows how to fly the TARDIS and between Jamie, Mairi, and Landon, the four of them should be able to figure out how to rescue Rose and the Doctor from the Moon Bubble that was launched into space with a limited oxygen supply. 


My only other option felt like it would have to be allowing Jamie to go all Storm Wolf again, but I did not want her to regenerate and she would have done if I let her.  She was certainly ready to, but she's been through too much trauma and Luke would have lost it.  Actually, he's going to lose it when she suggests it again before they figure out the TARDIS is faking it.  Of course he'll lose it in that understated Luke Smith way, but yeah, he'll be rather upset with her.

Meanwhile, Rose and the Doctor, with nothing else to do and no way of saving themselves will make love.  So, maybe I can actually get that story completed this week.  Though I still have to figure out what to do with the villains.  I need their motivation and right now I don't know what it is, though I think somehow the purple vacuum birds the humans have named minus have something to do with it.  That's still a bit of a bang my head against the wall bit of the story.  Anyone got some spare villian motivation floating around?

You know, I just want you to know how much I look forward to every story you write. Even if it's just a snippet. Your stories constantly put a smile on my face and give me something to look forward to.

I'm in the middle of a serious bad patch at work. Those moments when I hit your LJ and find a new story part really help my day. This isn't a "write more dammit" response. It's a thank you for those little moments where you help me find a little bit of escape. :)

Oh, thank you. That's a wonderful thing to hear. I'm sorry you're having a tough time at work right now and hope it gets better soon!
