FanFiction Excerpt -- Future Chapter.

beautiful London, notebook
What I am posting in just a few short moments here is a future chapter for my Outsiders fanfic, Don't Think Twice, It's All Right. I wrote this mainly as an anniversary (as in, we've been friends for one year now anniversary) present for [info]latch_22, but before that it had been a scene that was taking shape in my head and I wanted to write it anyway before I forgot it completely. The entire thing came out to be twelve pages long, so whenever I do get to this point in the story, it'll be its own individual chapter and not just a part of one. And I think it'll work out better that way, just because of what it is.

I know not a lot of people keep up with my fic, I'm guessing simply because it's a sister fic and I know how royally unappreciated those are, but if you are, you know what's happened thus far and I don't feel I have to detail all of that. But since this is a future chapter, I'll warn you of any potential spoilers here in a moment.

Even if you haven't read The Outsiders or my fanfic, feel free to read this anyway and give me any feedback -- I do appreciate the constructive criticsm, especially with this because I'm sure I'll be editing before I actually get to the point where I want to post it.

So, here is some general info on what you'll be reading, if you decide to do so:

Title: Secret Plan to Make Intarwebz Wifey Love Me Even More. :) (The shortened version is just Secret Plan, which you might recognize.)
Spoilers: I figured I'd do this sort of first in case it would be a huge problem for anybody. There aren't really any, except for references to a canon character death sprinkled throughout, since I've been following the post-book timeline. So if you haven't read the book or my fic, just watch out for that. Umm ... I don't want to say too much without giving away the rest of the story, so I'll just give you a one-word hint: Woodstock.
Characters Included: Steve Randle, and my OFC, Eleanor.
Summary: I don't really know how to summarize this. It's just basically Steve and Eleanor discussing (and, uh ... *cough* doing) drugs, as well as discussing their own lives and their own dilemmas. It's kind of -- or at least it will be -- a pivotal chapter, I think.
Warnings: Mainly drug use and discussion of drug use, as well as some course language.
Disclaimer: I own nothing and no one, except for Eleanor (and Barbara, but she only gets a very brief mention here), and I'm making no profit from this. Any relation or ties to real-life events, people, etc., is purely coincidental. There is a very subtle nod to the Nickelodeon sitcom Drake and Josh in here, but if you don't watch it religiously like I do, you won't catch it.

The chapter itself is under the cut. Obviously I wouldn't stretch your f-list with this.

It's not my best writing ever, but it is fairly decent. Comments, constructive criticism, and this time ego boosts are all muchly appreciated. )

The drug references, by the way, were based purely upon research, and the only firsthand account present was from that of my brother, who has smoked pot before, and who has talked to me about the different effects, and things like that. I personally have not, currently do not, and most probably will not partake in drug use in the future.

Just wanted to make that clear.

Thanks for reading! :)
