Quite inexcusable for me to suddenly vanish for one whole month. For those wondering if COVID-19 claimed me, that is a negative. I follow the Shelter-in-Place orders to the letter, so I've had no contact with anyone who's positive for the virus, even went as far as to prepare some rudimentary neutralization procedures for all deliveries I receive.
I'm not dying yet.
As for the Feros chapter…I like to think that while the coronavirus has not infected me, it certainly killed my motivation when writing that chapter – not really, but it's pretty much hell to try and get past 1.5k words on it. Personally, it might be the fact it's too much action in one go. That, or it's following the canon story too closely for my liking. Either way, it's writer's block hell, and I'm trying to figure out what to do with it.
I suppose if by next week I don't have anything to post, I could try something else to mitigate the Feros bullshit. Maybe either a mission report or just skip the entire mission and leave behind mentions of the Thorian, along with the fate of the colony much later. Leaning more towards mission reports for the canon ME missions except when Mandalorian!Tali affects it in some fashion, but I can't decide which would work better.
That being the case, a poll is on my profile page if you guys want to help. Any help is appreciated in making the story flow better. In the meantime, I shall grind my head against the chapter because there's a lot of cool shit I planned for the future and Feros is being a dick.
