time for the author to bitch! still not happy. ;_; I can't decide if I just suck, or if the setting is throwing me off. Writing 'chris' feels easy and natural to me, especially during his periods of angst, but everything around him is just... weird. like it's completely disconnected from him. Or is that just a product of his own sense of alienation? I can't tell the difference. But I'm not happy. I feel like I've assembled all the proper pieces of the setting, but I can't make them... fit. And I don't think I've achieved the right balance between constructing a situation which feels completely 'normal' and family-like, and making sure I remain in the FMA world. ~_~
Suggestions are appreciated, please!
( He must have had a real family, once; a real father, a mother who looked like him, who'd raised him. )
