I'm in a journaling mood.
Making a story believable and realistic is HARD. T_T I've been working out the kinks in just BAHD, and I'm STILL not even past the Eliazar Arch (the events that happen BEFORE the start of BAHD). And then the more I work it out and connect the dots to make sense, the more I realize I may also have to re-qrite ASS and HOLE (If you're unfamiliar with me, you'll know that the acronym for my stories are odd. I know it sounds weird, and I still giggle when I say them out loud.)
I actually WANT to re-write ASS, since it's the weakest of the series and made absolutely no sense. Clearing up BAHD makes me wanna rewrite ASS even more, especially since I'm FINALLY working out Kain's actual character and what really happens. But depending on how much I change I may need to go back and alter HOLE and DUDE as well. It's kind of ridiculous at this stage, but I really wanna do it. If only for myself.
But I KNOW I'm making headway! ^^ I finally have DATES. DATES I TELL YOU. I have an Apocalypse date, and I have exact dates for every MAIN character's birthday. For example, Roxanne is born June 1st, year 120. Then, the actual events of BAHD begin sometime near the end of October, year 157, with the Angels' arrival in Camaria on November 2nd, year 157. I got this so down. Having birthdays helps so much, because I now know the exact ages of everybody in BAHD.
I have dates for most everything in BAHD now, I just gotta work out the actual events to make understandable events. Eff yes.
