Fanfiction Update

Not sure if I'm writing this blog for my readers or for myself to go back to at the end of this week when I actually have time to write, but here goes!

Lightyears Away: Two chapters were added earlier this week. I think there's about one more chapter left. I know the ending and I know how to get to the ending. It's the other stuff I'm having writer's block on. But I do hope to have this story completed very soon.

I'm also working on a Rex-centric fic. This one's gonna be fun!

My under the mistletoe story might have to wait until next year because today is January 18th (exactly 5 months til Toy Story 3, wahooo!!!) and that is just too far after Christmas to be posting a Christmas story. Then again, I haven't even gotten to taking down my decorations yet, so we'll see.

After Rex will be a new drama about another toy coming to Andy's room....

And I also may try my hand at writing some Bo/Woody fluff. We'll see. I'm better at the Buzz/Jessie. At least I think so...

Eventually I'll get around to re-writing Butterflies. At least some parts, that is. Or maybe just add a few scenes. I like the story, it's just now how I envisioned it when I was planning it initially. I really have to get better about writing things down as they come to me.

Buzz Lightyear Smells Like Peppermint?

So I was writing some Buzz and Jessie fanfiction the other day and right in the middle of a particulary tender moment it occured to me that I have no idea what Buzz smells like. Somehow compacted plastic or pvc didn't fit the mood I was going for, so I had to think long and hard. What would Buzz's breath smell like?

Hmmm... he's a toy. He's a spaceman toy with a spacesuit. Ah, the spacesuit! There's my inspiration! It's gray and green and purple with some red accents... peppermint! Buzz Lightyear smells like peppermint! Don't ask me why I associate those colors with peppermint, I just do. Green to me= peppermint. Besides, strangely it makes sense for a toy to smell like peppermint. The scent seems fitting for an action figure with a long rounded face and large rounded eyes. So there you have it. Buzz Lightyear smells like peppermint.
