Tried to sit down 3 times this week to write. Can't do it anymore, feels like work.

Stephen King said you have 3 months to get a book done before it starts to grind

Sounds accurate in retrospect.

Thanks for reading whie I was still writing 3

Below are some headcanons or planned ideas to where things were going.

1. Stella is the hooded figure that kills Sean Prescott.

The theory that Stella was evil was floated around after episode 4 and I was always

fully on board with that. I was planning to have her be a disciple of Jefferson that followed

from the east coast. She was going to have time powers similar to Max.

(Awoken by her seeing him shot possibly.) At some point they

were destined to have a time freezing / rewinding battle. (Possibly during a car chase.)

Both her and Max's power would be expanded and fleshed out to include some nasty things you could do to a person involving gravity.

2. Vivian Prescott, Walker Williams, and Mark Jefferson knew eachother in college.

The Artist, The Photographer, The Scientist, and The Writer.

Four killers that worked together on the east coast during their college years.

Each for a different purpose and goal. "The Writer" would not have been in the story

but he would have been a reference to Joe Carroll from "The following." Vivian and Mark had a thing.

3. Rachel Amber's room.

What I would have written next. Chloe would need to know why Rachel did the things she did.

Max and Chloe go to Rachel's home and meet her father. He is strange and off-putting. They explore her room and find clues to her actions. They find clues about Pan estates. Chloe finds a picture of her and Rachel. When Max comforts Chloe by rubbing her shoulder Chloe is sent into the past. She photo jumps into the photo of her and Rachel. Chloe struggles with wether she should change the past or not. She talks in depth with Rachel confirming that Rachel was indeed in love with her. Chloe decides not to change the past, fearing for Max and her own safety.

They discover Rachel's mother was killed by the storm. They find her decaying body. Rachel's father has been ignoring the decaying body. He has become insane. He attacks them, trying to kill Chloe.

4. The Tobanga and Blackwell

At some point Madsen would be arrested. The kids would end up returning to blackwell eventually. The football field is muddy and wet, covered in temporary tent housing. It feels more like a refugee camp than a school. Courtney Wagner has stepped up in a big way. She is an unofficial leader of the students. They are helping the refugees.

Brooke confronts Max about the night of the storm. "Where were you?!" "I tried to make Warren stay! He said he needed to help you!" "He died because of you!" "Where were you Max?!" Brooke would hold up the picture of Max from warren's locker. Max would break at this. She would run from a crowd of school friends and fernando and kristen. Chloe would chase after her. Fernando and Kristen would stop the blackwellers from following.

Max and Chloe would fight. In the dorm hallway. Max would want to use the photo of herself to try and change everything. Chloe would disagree viciously. The fight would come to blows. Chloe would say some biting shit. "I gave you the chance to kill me once. I'm not giving you another chance!" "Rachel isn't important enough to change time for but your little science boyfriend is? Fuck that!"

The fight would end with Chloe's hands around Max's neck. "i should kill you. You're too dangerous. I'd be a hero. I'd save myself, I'd save Seattle!" Max would just go limp in Chloe's grip. "Do it. You're right. Kill me."

They would break down at this point at how fucked their relationship really is.

Several people get laid at blackwell XD There is make-up max and chloe sex. There is grungy shower fernando and kristen sex.

The tobanga is examined and there is no bonus visions for Kristen. They chop the tobanga down or a tree falls on it or something. The core of the tobanga is a strange metal.

5. Pan estates

The ultimate reveal is that pan estates was purchased because it sits atop a strange and rare type of metal. A new element or possibly of Alien origin it is a mystery. Walker Williams, Vivian Prescott, and Mark Jefferson were also using pan estates to do their sick death art shit / death science sacrifice whatever they were into. Rachel and Nathan were more involved but still fairly innocent kids. Stella was way less innocent and involved. Jefferson went off script.

The tornado (vortex) that destroyed arcadia bay was created by the strange gravitational powers of the metal.(yay max is absolved of guilt partially)

Walker Williams' new monitoring equipment being installed in seattle (what max's dad is working on unknowingly) is what will upend / destroy the city.

City is destroyed in final conflict. Max escapes to the 'end of time' meets a future version of herself that is a weird almost godlike creature. End of time is where all time strands, the ones max has been manipulating, converge. (Lots of Stephen King ass shit at the 'end of time') (Think 'The Turtle' and weird psychic vampire spiders.) (Max is sad at seeing a giant shadow hulk monster. She realizes part of the beast is Jefferson, or that Jefferson nwas somehow connected to the dark monster.)

Don't know the exact ending but it ends well. Always happy ending. Inserted back into time to before events of LiS game to fix everything. Use these strands, craft your own reality sort of deal.

6. KATE.

almost forgot, writing all this haphazard as hell.

Kate's mom ends up being the worst person ever. Her aunt and her mother humiliate her publically in church. Kate ends up running away because of her mom's shit combined with wanting to meet the person who is mysteriously texting her. The person texting her is Stella pretending to be a boy, possibly pretending to be Nathan.

Kate goes on a mini journey back to Arcadia Bay. She meets a bunch of strange people on the way, stopping by the blue catfish diner. (She doesn't meet her cousin tho. Jessica barely misses her.) She is saved from horny truckers by the boy who took Chloe's virginity. The red-haired boy with neck tattoo of a gecko named tommy. He gives her a ride for a while saying he is heading to arcadia to attend the funeral of an old friend of his. (Frank Bowers)

Kate, Fernando, and Kristen were 100% going to get caught up in a weird love triangle. Kate X Fernando sex scene 100%

That was some of the predetermined things that were going to happen. Nikolai would need to be dealt with. David Madsen might die a heroic / sad death. :/ Had lots of small ideas about the gates brothers. 100% everyone was going back to the seagate motel eventually XD

Sorry it took so long for me to officially cancel this. The next thing I write probably won't be FanFiction. Thank you for reading and commenting. 3
