*comes crawling out of the writer dungeon covered in blood*
WELL. after about 10 months of work, i've finally finished writing the rough draft of bs4. currently, it's 84 chapters and nearly 214k words. i'm scared of myself, too.
HOWEVER. i do emphasize the phrase "rough draft" because those 84 chapters and 214k are a little bit like the winchester mystery house. gaping plot holes, half-baked arcs, wild inconsistencies, characters randomly appearing and disappearing and reappearing, and, of course, stairs to nowhere. basically, i just kept writing all the way to page 743 like nothing was wrong while everything behind me was actively burning. the grind never stops.
now that i have my thoughts all written down, though, i can redo the book to have much better quality, although its title is already locked in: "black star: the eternal soldier".
"but jupiter!!" i hear you say. "the eternal soldier isn't a character in the mcu!!!"
correct, wattpad user kind enough to support me!! you see, since i've effectively dismantled the mcu timeline to suit my own needs, there's now a gaping two year gap between where we left off with spider-man: homecoming and the inevitable avengers: infinity war. i figured i needed something new to fill that gap, so i decided to go deep into my archives. the eternal soldier's dna can be traced back to a character even older than lexi, my first mcu oc. i am SO UNBELIEVABLY EXCITED for you guys to read her story, and i've been working hard to make sure it's the best it can be (hence writing wayyyy too much). i won't say any more right now, but keep a lookout over the next few months for tidbits of information while i work to make lexi and the eternal soldiers' story into something coherent enough to enjoy.
bye for now,
jupiter xx
