Me: Ahh yes, I have character muse, so time to write another oneshot. Probably going to be relatively short, a few hundred words at the very least. Probably just going to be some random character interaction that doesn't have much impact on the overall plot, either.
Me, weeks later: <Is now staring down a behemoth that's only just breached 2,000 words and isn't even finished yet>
Me: What have I done

The worst part is that I'm trying to write multiple things at the same time and literally everything else is shorter than this.
Also, weeks of work put into something that probably no one'll read. How sad.

OOC Definitely relatable. I do this all the time. I'm like: I'm just gonna write something small, I promise. Me a few hours later: Well, this needs to be its own novel now.

𝕊’𝕞𝕠𝕣𝕖 : Or, like, several novels lol. @victorious : It just concerns some OC's of mine; unfortunately, a bit of the content depicting the growth of their relationship/just general context has been lost to deletion of the group [some things were just implied, anyways] that everything was previously in. Would take a bit to explain.

Would take a bit to explain. I mean, I have time, explain it to me! Alright. Just gotta figure out where to start haha. There's always that. First of all. This is with some Warriors OC's of mine. Oneshot centers around a father and daughter. Father is a horrendously flighty and emotionally neglectful [and a drunkard in the human AU, among other things, though that'll be discussed later] person, and over half the time he wasn't around so all of his kids grew up not really knowing him. He used to be a fairly horrible guy in terms of just existing as a human being/cat, but years passed and now he's making an effort to clean up his act. Still doesn't mean that most of his family likes or fully trusts him, though. But this particular kid does, though it took her a lot to get to that point. Speaking of which.. Roughly 2 years canonically before this oneshot takes place, the kid had your typical dream of "hey I gotta break away from my birth home and form a Clan because StarClan told me to". Keep in mind that she's fiercely religious, and would no doubt follow her ancestors to the ends of the earth if they asked. So she leaves, along with one of her brothers [and said brother's two mates]. Her dad chases after her, simply because he's wary about letting her leave just like that. Also, feel like I should mention that the daughter was kidnapped as a young child and at that point, had only recently decided to come home to her family after years of everyone thinking that she was dead. That was a thing. The dad catches up to her after a couple months, half-dead from heatstroke because she's decided to set up house in what's basically a small desert-like beach with some vague bit of forest attached [not to mention literally dying from hunger because he's got some serious mental issues he needs to work through]. Also there's a volcano but we'll get to that part later. And she's leader now. He rooms with her in her den for a while to recuperate, because literally no one else wants to be around him it's amazing in a way. Only it ends up being more than a while because he's a bum, and eventually they just get to know each other/start falling into an unhealthy codependency. Many emotions are felt. Eventually, though, he leaves. He's heard news that his mate is dead, and since he's known said mate for most of his life/they're one of the few people he can bring himself to actually care about despite his trouble with emotional intimacy, he proceeds to not believe that for even a fraction of a second and bolts to go look for them. Not long after, that volcano explodes, and many people die and everything is just generally terrible. She barely makes it out alive. Some of her friends barely make it out alive. She wanders on her own for a while before deciding to go back to her birth home. She gets there, settles back in. Falls in love, has children. Eventually decides to break up with her mate and abandon her children because PTSD isn't fun and she doesn't completely understand why she's falling apart mentally. This in turn spurs fear of ending up exactly like her father/his relationship with the majority of his children, so eventually she decides to run, and go back to the ruins of the Clan she'd built. She ends up approaching her father one night attempting to say goodbye, and he confronts her but their argument soon just dissolves into a bunch of angst and crying.
