#sentido is good enough with a relatively creative structure. but it's just smth that ppl read & think 'oh that was good' & then move on

From what I can tell, ITNL is the only committed longfic time travel au for vashwood. Which is a Little strange to me, coming from p5 fandom where it feels like every other longfic is a NG+ au (not a bad thing, it's just very common)

And me sitting here like. Is there really... no one else doing one like this?

Makes me even more dedicated to what I'm doing lol

#speculation nation #itnl shit #not the only time travel au but most of them (from what i see at least) are time loops rather than true time travel #which the actual specifics of that are getting up to semantics i think. it is still time travel #but itnl is the only one that's got my specific explanation for it At The Very Least. which makes me feel a bit more confident #overall i just want to do something special. i want to do something New. & i want people to enjoy it. #discacc is a landmark for p5 soulmate aus and i want itnl to be a landmark for vw time travel aus #my specialty being finding a common trope that's not been done very much in a fandom (comparatively) & Committing To The Bit #41k feels so short to me still but it's among the longest trigun fics now. and it's only gonna keep growing. #shoot for the stars & all that business lol #full respect to ppl who just do one shots bc those r important too #but i have a fatal case of Look At This and Committing To The Bit that has me picking one idea and just shoving it in ppls faces #over and over and over again until ppl start to properly appreciate it. And So It Shall Go. #most of all i want to make something that will be Remembered. something that stands apart from the rest. #sentido is good enough with a relatively creative structure. but it's just smth that ppl read & think 'oh that was good' & then move on #i want itnl to worm into people's BRAINS. i want people to read it and feel flayed alive. #i want it to be something that people can never forget. and Such Is My Goal lol. #it's 10 am im still in bed and ive been here for almost 14 hours now. i have no business thinking this hard about this lmao #but the thoughts are there. i have a Goal. and im going to see it through.
