Sometimes I Wonder · 4:15am Aug 19th, 2021
I have to wonder sometimes what drives me to do certain things.
A day or two ago, I got it into my head to write a crossover between MLP and Mega Man Zero. No prior warning, just out of the blue---"Send Fairy Leviathan to Manehattan!"---BOOM, there she is. Completely impulsive. And now because of my decision, I have to work on a slew of original characters for the setting. And I need to imagine in my head just how Leviathan would react to the situations I'm writing her into, trying my hardest not to deviate too far from her personality. I just made a whole lot of work for myself.
It's the last thing I needed, honestly. I've been having my fair share of distractions recently, mostly on the health front but also on the gaming front (finally took the leap and purchased Smash Ultimate). I'm wrapping up a No Deaths Run of Mega Man X on my channel, so that's been taking up a lot of my time. There's also a wholly original story I've been working on since early this year, and I need to get back to that at some point. Did I need to do this to myself? No, I didn't.
...
But is it starting to look more and more like a fun challenge?

Just needed to get that off my mind. Ciao mein, everyone, and stay safe and sane.
