I am still working on it I promise ‼️ ‼️

Unfortunately I decided to start writing it in the middle of my exam weeks ?? Amazing timing . so I've been incredibly busy 😭 but

In terms of progress I'd say I have about a chapter fully complete (just needs some heavy editing) and a lot of other scenes fleshed out. But I write in a way where if I'm bored or tired of the section I am writing I will skip like 12 chapters ahead to write another scene. So it's like.....Spread out progress XD... Yeah ....

I'm trying to avoid having to do like monthly updates on Ao3 (cus I have my account now yayyyy) because I don't know if I have the faith in myself to continue updating monthly. I'd much prefer to write it all at once and then upload it. So sorry if it takes a while but rest assured I am thinking about it always! I know it's better for engagement to do chapter updates but I just don't think I have the strength for that lol

Uh here's an excerpt from the beginning lol. Sprinkling parts of this fic everywhere to keep people interested 😭

Interesting (?) plot points I've added include:

• More Jennifer!!!!! She comes along with them now and isn't knocked out and left unconscious in an alleyway!!!

• This means Jen and Doc interaction! What do you talk about with your friend's other friend?? They're so awkward but they learn to like get along well eventually I love them

• Marty interacting with his future family (I will not fumble their characters I promise. I am aware of why the didn't have this on part 2 but I thought it'd be fun. Hopefully my hubris is not the end of me.)

thank youuuuu <3

YEEEEES i did!!! (thanks again youve saved my life) :D i am glad i finally watched it, now i actually understand certain fandom things ive seen people talk about!!! (example, i was so haunted by "tardy marty" LMBO i didnt know where it came from or why ppl were saying it ;w;)

MY THOUGHTS ON IT: i did enjoy it buuut i also kind of have mixed opinions too. ofc, i already love the movie so i was kinda guaranteed to like the play, but at the same time i recognize i have childhood nostalgia/movie attachment bias so i was trying to divorce that from my viewing too ^^;

PUTTING THAT ASIDE however, i think a lot of the songs were. ookaaay. >_> like dgmw there WERE a few that i thought were absolute bangers, and then there were a handful of others where, even tho i wasnt wowed by the song as a whole necessarily, certain segments or lines i was like "okay that ate". perhaps the biggest qualm i had was (and i recognize this is per production so take that as u will) i think the choreo was... a bit boring sorry T_T and it sucks too bc the sets were SO FREAKING GOOD???? possibly my favorite part of the whole production tbh, every single transition i was like :D imo "something about that boy" was the only sequence i thought really utilized the stage and movement to its fullest potential during the song. everything else felt like a lot of sitting and standing, and then occasionally some bg dancers which were good but not particularly noteworthy (since theyre meant to be in the bg ofc).

NOW. COUNTERPOINT. i listened to the soundtrack on its own afterwards and tbh i think they have potential for some really good animatic material. like with the right choreo and action happening throughout, i think i would have found them a lot more engaging. so credit where credit is due there. like i genuinely have some ideas i wanna do bc it gave me a lot of inspo, which is a slay but also kind of a bummer that the show itself didnt always wow me yknow?
