           “It’s noble to want to stand up for someone less…
confident than you- you four, quiet!” Moore snapped at the kids next to Signe. “I’m
glad you didn’t resort to physical violence but… I hope you’ll soon learn that
it is possible to get to a point where you need neither violence nor quippy backtalk.”

           “Only my beautiful visage…” Signe whispered.

           “Alright, you need to sober up.”

           “She’s not much different like that either,” Tahani
noted.

           “Can I trust that you’ll stay with her while the morphine
wears off?”

           “Of course!” Signe threw her arm around Juri and tried to
reach for Tahani’s neck who kept pulling away. “They’ll stay with me forever!”

I didn’t plan for Moore to be an absolute dork but oh well.

“Oh, and I’m also
required by regulations to thank every volunteer for participating in
this experiment. Field Marshal Krieger wants you to know your country
is grateful for your sacrifice. Which does sound like we’re about to kill you all.
Which we’re not. Because of regulations.”

I was thinking, because this new story idea of mine is… well, it’s doing something. There’s a huge chunk of story that happens before the actual story happens but I still wanted to have it in the story to show how the characters come together but it’d just be for the sake of introducing the characters and how their relationship formed but it doesn’t have much to do with the actual story… so I could go in medias res as I tend to do but still write the beginning even before November as a sort of warmup to the characters themselves, as this supplementary exposition so I would get a better feel at what the characters already know and feel by the time we get to the actual story.

And then I wouldn’t have to worry about building that into the structure cause who gives a shit.

But in the same time it does start with a betrayal that only makes sense if the beginning is in it. But technically then I could start it like… a section before that so you do know what’s going on. I’ll figure it out.

In my current story idea I have a group of people who go through a number of tests and so I have this chart that tells me how they do in each test that goes worst – bad – good – best, and poor MC’s column is just full of “bad” and “worst” and anyway I love her.

look at that absolute disaster girl at the end.
