"Guardian" ch. 17 is now at 1,850 words, for a gain of ~325. I am still not entirely sure what Yukiko's going to be doing in her POV scene, but I have all the physical setup in place (plus character motivations) and can probably wing it from there. I haven't managed to wrap up Sasuke's scene, though, because I need two particular things to happen but I am having trouble setting one of them off. *grump*

Also I feel there is no narrative tension through his entire scene, which I think is probably at least half a misreading on my part brought on by general exasperation with my own words, but still half an actual objective problem. Oh well, it's easier to fix stuff once it's written than to spin words out of nothing. I'll just bullshit some kind of conclusion tomorrow and make it pretty later.

In WIP Big Bang news, I opened ch. 9 of "The Courting Dance," realized I had no idea what the emotional tone of the chapter should be (or, you know, the emotional attitudes of the characters), and have resigned myself to doing research on my own damn story, so as to reacquaint myself with whatever the hell I was thinking a couple years ago. *sigh* Such is life.
