For TMI Tues, word in WIP meme: lamp; portrait; hungry; breeze.

Now the Order in the Court fics are live my unposted stuff isn’t as much as it was but let’s see what I have 🙂 I do love this meme, thank you!

Nothing for lamp or portrait but one each for the others.

Happy Anniversary – GoldenLace Monthly Rumbelling

She waited until he was settled before letting her dress drop to the ground, shivering at the hungry expression that crossed her husbands face. The dress had been a blue sparkly number, just this side of decent for the fancy restaurant Gold had booked. The lingerie though was definitely not decent at all.

Untitled GoldenLace Bonnie and Clyde
“The codes will get us in, turn off all the alarms but they won’t open the vault,” Lacey
admitted. “Your rep says that you never found a safe you couldn’t crack.” Gold nodded,
and Lacey looked at him hopefully.

“Not interested,” he said firmly, leaning over her to open the car door. The icy breeze whistled in the open gap, as she stared at him.

Fanfiction Question: 27. What do you hate more: Coming up with titles or writing summaries?

Only change good for baaaaad.

Honestly bane of my existence. I struggle with them both. Not always, sometimes a summary will just flow, and sometimes the perfect title is obvious – sometimes I start with a title and the story flows from that. Most of the time though, it’s hard.

What do I hate more? Probably the title at the end of the day because a summary can be tweaked later, but a title is kinda forever. Get it wrong and doesn’t matter I’m still stuck with it.

The Auction Gold and Belle: So are you two officially dating now? Any more Zelena encounters?

Gold: Yes we’re dating.

(OOC Gold is a little stunned)

Belle: I followed up on Zelena. Turns out she’s been in Europe for the last couple of months. She got back last week.

Gold:

Belle: I’ve already requested the night off for the next event. I don’t have to be on the clock to bust her.

Gold: That’s … thank you sweetheart.

Last Friday Night!Gold: how did the case go? Were you and Belle ever at risk of being discovered again?

The case is still ongoing dearie. These things take months, especially with all the delays the defense is petitioning for every five minutes. Dragging it out is a tactic because the jury gets tired, they just want to go home, and then they are more likely to find in favor of the defendant due to the benefit of the doubt.

*cough* as for Belle and I we aren’t seeing as much of each other. The loss of the tape seems to have made the defense decide to keep quiet about their knowledge of our relationship, but there is no sense tempting fate. It’s best not to give them any ammunition.

The moment the jury comes back and this case is over, I’m taking a week of my accumulated leave and taking Belle away from the city. There’s a small box burning a hole in my desk drawer…

Painted Layers of Love Belle or Gold: Okay, you’ll have the art studio to yourselves and there will be sculpting involved. I think a reenactment from the scene in “Ghost” is in order. Okay, yeah, I know in “Ghost” she was doing pottery, but…you know where I’m going with this. ;)

Gold: *coughs* I would be lying if I said that idea didn’t hold an appeal, but I don’t think Belle would be comfortable. We agreed to just stay as friends and I’m going to honor that. I know I have a reputation at work but I assure you I’m not the type of man to pressure a lady for more than she is willing to give.

(OOC that was the prompt! That was the actual prompt, a reenactment of Ghost. I think if you’re hoping for that in chapter eleven you’ll be disappointed but there’s still a lot of story left. Maybe eventually…)

Are there any songs in particular you’ve had on repeat to help inspire your writing?

Posted on by

I do have specific songs or playlists which go with certain stories. Not every story but I add songs to playlists when I feel they match the verse.

I also have a few â€śgo to” artists or albums if I need to get fired up and concentrate. For example September by Earth, Wind and Fire is something I sometimes stick on repeat for word wars. Eye of the Tiger is another but that is so cliche. There’s the entire Danger Days album by My Chemical Romance. My writing music used to be anything by Apocalyptica but that doesn’t seem to be true anymore. Maybe I procrastinated too much while listening that it lost it’s effectiveness at being the â€śseriously you need to focus now” music.

Now you will probably laugh but for the last few days my â€śknuckle down and for merlin’s sake focus!” song has been Karma Chameleon by the Culture Club. I had iTunes on shuffle and it came on and it’s what I’ve been using for word sprints since. It just sort of fades into the background but has an upbeat tone which is working for me right now.

Star Wars fusion Emma – how did you and Gold’s son meet?

Choosing to remain a Jedi was the hardest decision Gold ever had to take. I sometimes want to punch the smug smirk right off Gold’s face; he is a tricky manipulative bastard but I’ve never doubted how much he loves Bae. Due to his Jedi duties Gold couldn’t raise him but he did keep a dedicated holo channel, in case of emergency, and he visited every chance he had.

One day, not long before my trials, Bae sent a desperate message for help. Gold was on the other side of the galaxy, he couldn’t get away without raising suspicion. The negotiations Gold was overseeing were delicate and his sudden departure could have sparked a war. He would have still left everything for Bae but fortunately he had the good sense to remember he had allies.

I’ll never forget the look on Gold’s face as he begged via holo for Regina and I to save his son. We were in that region of space, it was only a few parsecs and it was an easy diversion to make. However, by the time we got there the slaver who had abducted him had already started to regret it. Bae’s good with machinery and he’d reprogrammed one of the droids, it was absolute chaos. I’ll never forget the first moment I saw him and that smile of his.

Painting Layers Belle: I know that you’re probably nervous about venturing out to the art studio, but its going to be all right. It’ll be an adventure, one that you can share with Nick. Now, what do you plan to sculpt first?

I … I don’t know. I’m trying not to think about it. Tomorrow is so soon, it rather feels like an oncoming freight train and I’m tied to the tracks. Besides I’ve never worked with clay before, I would probably just make an awful indistinguishable mess no matter what I intend.

Across the Stars!Belle: How did things end with you and your Master, Rumple? You seemed surprised to find yourself on a ship with Emma, Neal, Regina, and young Henry. Has this crew worked together to save the galaxy before?

The entire day was something of a surprise. It was really a series of shocks as everything that I had ever known was either destroyed, or proven to be a lie. With all the emergency measures the Republic fell some time ago. However, the Empire no longer has to pay lip-service to democracy which means that nowhere is safe.

It’s the first time I’ve met Bae and Henry but I’ve worked with Master Mills and Emma Swan before. Back before the clone wars we sometimes worked as a quartet on various missions for the Order. I don’t know if we ever saved the galaxy but we certainly got into more scrapes than the mission briefs ever suggested. It sometimes seemed like we were a magnet for trouble.

(OOC I know this doesn’t really answer the question but I suspect I’m going to write a sequel so no spoilers heh)
