Chapter 11 of the MWPP 5th Year Canon Fic A Staggard Wild is now unleashed.

Two in one week?

Apparently, getting sick and needing to quarantine myself makes me very productive!

Thank you for the tag, sweet @isahorcrux!

This tag apparently asks you to share seven sentences from a WIP. I'll include a bit (6 sentences, sorry!) from the next chapter of Deerstalking: A Staggard Wild, though I am working on this new Jily 1970s NI AU that I'm really excited about.

Tagging @chdarling @theresthesnitch, and @annabtg, if they would like to participate.

Deerstalking: ASW excerpt:

Evans scurried in five minutes after class started. Her hair was, unusually, piled on top of her head in a messy bun. James was so preoccupied by Peter’s plight that he almost didn’t notice the long and graceful lines of Lily’s neck exposed by this change. He almost did not see the smattering of goosebumps raise along her shoulder as the autumn breeze blew in through an ajar window. He almost didn’t even think about what it would be like to lean forward and press his lips to that soft skin just behind her ear. 

Posting again with link to individual chapter:

Also, just want to say, hi! Sorry its bee a hot minute, luvvies. But hey, still not dead, even though I get that a year of going quiet may have made you think others.

Chapter 12: The Infamous Dr. SqueezEazy

Sleep came fitfully to James that night. Judging from the amount of throat clearing, bed tossing, and pillow punching he heard from either side of him, sleep was also putting up a fight with Sirius and Remus, too. Being overly tired and hungry, on account of sleeping through breakfast,  made sitting through History of Magic particularly hard the next morning. The void left by Peter’s absence felt tangible. James could scarcely keep his eyes off the empty chair beside him. His mind constantly flew from the class to the Hospital Wing. He wondered how his friend was faring. 

Evans scurried in five minutes after class started. Her hair was, unusually, piled on top of her head in a messy knot. James was so preoccupied by Peter’s plight that he almost didn’t notice the long and graceful lines of Lily’s neck exposed by this change. He almost missed discovering this appealing new feature. He almost didn’t even think about what it would be like to lean forward and press his lips to that soft skin just behind her ear. 

Almost. 

I am very very excited about this.

Should I go to HH? pass

Should i go to yoga? pass

Should I go on a date? pass

Should I stay home and write Jily fic?

Stuck at home, finally caught COVID, though I’ve been so good about dodging it for three whole years.

V. V. Bored.

After two weeks of having A Staggard Wild kick my ass, the flood gates finally unlocked. Not only did I churn out (finally) chapter 7 last night, but my brain decided to keep me up half the night resolving 2 different plot issues one happening in February and one in April…

Also finally tied together a theme in this book with the Dada prof in the next… and I am very, VERY EXCITED (and just a little bit sleepy)
