@wipbigbang bragging rights Project Title: A Haunted House with a Picket Fence Fandom: Neighbours (tv) Link: HERE Summary: Paul's first Christmas alone with the triplets in a universe where Gail doesn't survive their birth and reflects on the six months of suffering that have led him to this point. Warnings: Major character death, maternal death/death in childbirth, absolutely miserable and depressed mc, many references made to a canonical suicide from the show. Characters: Paul Robinson, Gail Lewis, Des Clarke, Jim Robinson, Helen Daniels. Pairings: Paul Robinson/Gail Lewis, Paul Robinson/Terry Inglis When I Started: 12:54 PM on March 24, 2022 according to the timestamps on my doc. How I Lost My Shit: Honestly I kind of just stopped feeling so miserable as I was when I started this. I graduated Tafe, I found my passion in life, kind of a lot of things changed for me and this fic as much as I thought the concept was decent just fell away from me. The original plan I had for this fic was so grim I ended up changing it entirely for this version because I couldn't stomach leaving Paul in such a dark place after this story. How I Finished My Shit: I totally flipped everything. The whole fic got a rewrite, the ending was changed, I dropped some secondary plots I wasn't feeling and I listened to my muse about what it wanted this fic to look like. Then I FINISHED MY SHIT! Thank you sooo much to Ragna for the cover and chapter dividers!
