It just hit me, if Illumi knows where the boys are, is he going to be waiting for them when they get to their destination?? Or is he freakin going to get ON THE TRAIN bc I sensed some foreshadowing with that in the last chapter with what Killua had said...??? And is he going to find out when they call Alluka from the pay phone at the next stop!!?? Ahh so many things I wonder š¤š¤š¤ ... I love when there are things I donāt understand šā¤ļø Btw I hope youāre doing awesome! ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø
oh jeez;;; someone used my own pun against me?!?! i canātĀ ššš
welllllllllll what i can tell you is that my recent FMAB rewatch (8th, to be exact) has deeply influenced/inspired what i believe will happen in the next chapter(s), but i canāt tell you anything for sure. i donāt like to give āspoilersā for my stories, though even i canāt say anything with too much certainty.
As Iāve mentioned in my authorās notes, the way I write Things I Donāt Understand (and fanfictions/essays in general) is that I donāt plan out everything, but instead let things unfold naturally via the characters, and in a way that the plot of the previous chapters has already established. So, while I have vague ideas for future events and the storyās conclusion, nothing is set in stone and more often than not my ideas vary greatly from their originals. That, or the initial idea(s) in my head is/are such a skeleton of anything that only later I flesh it all out and give it a purpose, using previous narrative and characterization to drive that/those purpose(s).
thatās all iām going to say, except that i think youāre on the right track~ :D
Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness on the story ā I love discussing with my readers! I just came back from Seattle yesterday and I had an awesome time, and Iām eager to write more TIDU whenever I have the time~ Thanks for asking š
