Fighting with the Muse
Following Pepper's lead. (And we both blame
kalquessa for it all).
Me: Daniel isn't cooperating with me! Wah!
Daniel: You want me to bitch and eat cake. I'm not feeling particularly bitchy today. Plus I'm full at the moment.
Me: Do you understand the icon inspiration? It's a theme! Look I already skipped past you and did Sam's and Landry's.
Sam: (raises hand) Do you remember the notes you just got back from the beta on the done scenes? You totally punted my section. Rewrite is needed.
Me: Yes, yes. I know. I've got notes. I just don't want to sound repetitive to other things that happen. Daniel's not being cooperative in *that* one either.
Daniel: Hey! Teal'c is equally to blame for that section. We're trying. You just keep changing your mind.
Me: Who's changing who? I've tried writing your section FOUR count them FOUR times. It keeps dying.
Daniel: I think it just means you're indecisive.
Teal'c: My section was written quite eloquently in one draft *iz smug*
Jack: Hey, the icon is about me! I'm not in here so much.
Me: *makes shuushing noises* It's a *theme*. And you get to be the grand finale!
Jack: Yeah, but you don't even do *five things* memes. And now you're writing ten mini stories!
Me: It just turned into a...a thing! Look, I've still got NINE completely other icon fics to write! NINE ICON FICS! People are waiting!
Sam: You know your beta had a suggestion for Daniel's cake section. Something about covering him with cake and she could lick off the frosting?
Daniel: What?!
Me: See? Don't tempt me.
Muse: *files fingernails* Look, you're the one who keeps getting distracted betaing stories and rereading OLD fic.
Me: That's...just...totally not the point.
Muse: Not to mention throttling up that
jacksamfriends thing. Didn't you already sign up for
stargate_summer too? Someone needs to knuckle down and let me do my work.
Me: Oh Shush!

Re: *I never said punt*
MS is play-whining "I don't wanna play this game anymore. I already got the part." Meanwhile Martin Wood *picks him up* and RDA cracks up.

Look, you're the one who keeps getting distracted betaing stories and rereading OLD fic.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one. I really didn't spend large chunks of last night or this morning trying to find a bunch of stuff I didn't seem to have bookmarked and then re-reading all of it. Really.

Teal'c is strangely often the easiest of the foursome for me to write.

This is commentfic in it's most literal interpretation...

I just need them to be *in* my fic. And it's totally riffing off others' ideas.

Many great things are inspired by the ideas of others. Look at Leonardo Da Vinci and the helicopter...

Teal'c does smug so well.
*huggles your character muses*
I give them chocolate when they're being difficult. It doesn't always help but it makes them happy.

Teal'c is so smug.
Chocolate! And I have pretzels of doom so...maybe that will help!
