    I think my job is trying to give me PTSD.

    I was awoken by a phone call this morning. Work asked me to come in, as things were crazy. I did so, was there from around 9:30 AM to 6PM. Worked without a lunch break, I might add.

    The Moral Event Horizon.

    Gonna discuss another trope today in relation to the Quiververse. In this case, it's the Moral Event Horizon. In simple terms, this is the point a character passes that forever marks them as EVIL and potentially irredeemable. TVTropes itself lists a few examples from FiM, and I won't repeat them here...though I will say that

    It never ends. It just...never...ends...

    So work decided to throw another curve ball at me. My supervisor has been transferred to another store. That means that I've had six supervisors in my department across six years, and it could take weeks, maybe even months, for us to get a new one. Which means I'm going to continue to be worked to death.

    So, I'm writing again.

    It's not much, but I got some writing done today. Now, be warned, it's going to be a very long time before I do anything related to the Quiververse again, but I'm hoping that time frame will be measured in months rather than a year.

    Still, at least I'm making some progress.

    A question to my readers.

    When I started serious work on the Quiververse, I made myself a promise. That promise was thus, to do the best I can to use whatever characters appear in a story to the best of my ability. I like to think I've done that, as various canon characters are reasonably consistent with their portrayals in the show (and arguably are undergoing development, though that's up to the reader), and my OCs have

Same as it ever was... · 4:55am March 3rd

Alas, no change on my part. Work is still driving me nuts, I'm still procrastinating, and while I have important things that need to get done, I'm having a lot of trouble getting those important things done...and I'm being discouraged from doing those things, which just makes it worse.

But I'm trying, and I'm not giving up. I want to get back to writing, I want to resume work on the Quiververse, and I have so many stories that I desperately want to tell. And I will, once I have the chance.

And oh, hey, twelve thousand blog posts. Ain't I chatty.

Wan to talk in full detail of wha's holding you back mentally?

Geez, I'm really sorry, Echo. And I'm sorry as well for not having spoken more in the past while, there's been things going on at my own end, but nowhere near as bad as what seems to be the case with you.

*hugs*

If you ever need, or just want, to talk, I'm here, alright?

I appreciate that, thank you. I just need to knuckle down and get stuff done.

If you're willing, sure.

I'm all ears. Feel free to message me and write as much as you want if you just want someone to talk to.

Done and done.

I'm sorry things remain so difficult, Echo. I really hope they improve for you soon, on as many fronts as possible.

I know just saying this ultimately helps very little, but for whatever it's worth, know I'm keeping you in my thoughts, and wishing you the best.

Keeping my fingers crossed over here, and wishing you lots of good luck, because you deserve every bit of it. :)

Take care!
