tentative plans for "Tides"
May. 10th, 2005 05:01 pmI have been working on the next bit of "Tides," called "Spring Cleaning," but Team 7 is insisting there should be witty banter and I'm not particularly good at writing witty banter. *sigh*
Still, it progresses, and I think I can have the rebuilding-the-team/friendship parts done in... say, four more sections after this. One for Sakura, called "Leaders;" one each for Sasuke and Naruto in which there is an encounter with some missing-nin, or sound-nin, or something... some excuse for action anyway; and one more for Sakura, in which they leave Wave Country and I finally get my scene on a boat that I've wanted to write since I started this story. Probably called "Wings."
Which is a big spoiler-type hint, but whatever. :-)
After that, the actual hunting down of Akatsuki and Itachi would be a new story, since the focus shifts from rebuilding to revenge. (And also because I want to know more about what Kishimoto has planned before I start flailing around with established villains.)
