Cause Everybody's Doing It

I'm swiping this question from... well... everyone. ::Shrugs::

Ask me one question - any one - about my writing, then post this in your LJ so I can satisfy my curiosity about yours.

We'll see.

In other news, Accidentally In Love 5 is coming along slowly. ::Sigh:: the good news is the reason for that is partly a one-shot of Remus's bite and fall-out from Remus's parents POV. We shall see. Monday off will help immensely, I suspect.

Lame entry, I know. But hey, such is life.

Accidentally In Love is, by nature, a fic that begins well, goes on rather happily, and will soon take a turn to not-that-happy to end completely tragically. How do you feel with it? Are you going to stop on a happy moment? Or wallow in angst? Or turn completely AU and create the best ever resurrection fic?

Oooh. Good question!

Definitely not a resurrection fic. Sadly, I believe Sirius is dead and will stay that way. I wish I could believe otherwise, but I can't. :P~~ to me.

One thing that is important to note is that I don't necessarily think that things were that horrible between Sirius and Remus at Halloween. In the Shack, one of Peter's lines of defense is wouldn't Sirius have told Remus? This implies that Peter saw Sirius and Remus as very close. And what is Remus's response? Not "we weren't speaking" or "when did I ever see Sirius?", but "not if he thought if I was the spy. I assume that's why you didn't tell me?" It sounds like there's no huge resentment there on Remus's part, and that Sirius's decision to think Remus was the spy was (typical Sirius) spur of the moment and last minute. I really think he HAD to be believe it was Remus or Peter.

However, as plotted AIL only goes up to 1981, and that does end icky. So I'm planning on writing an epilogue where Remus and Sirius see each other again, and you know the love is going to be rekindled. And that's where it will stop, because I really don't want to end on a depressing note. IF I change my mind and go up to Sirius's death, it would be very important to me to write Remus eventually accepting it. Remus loves Sirius, yes, and he always will, but I think that he will accept Sirius's death and continue with his life as best he can. (Until JKR kills him off mercilessly, wherein I can console myself thinking that he's with Sirius.)

So, in the end, I'm going to end on a bittersweet moment, whichever one I choose!
