tsukinofaeriiToday, I ramble. (Shut up, I know I do it every post, so :P) I ramble because... Tony is distressingly stable. wtf.
I think it's the dragon. (Still working on variations of that.) By necessity, Tony Impresses young: 12 in one, 17 in the other. The latent Tony issues—self-worth, control freak, addictive personality—are still there, but he's had someone riding around in his head for a good chunk of his life, and that someone is absolutely and 100% devoted to him. It eases his problems a bit. Then the change in timeline (100% AU) pretty much guarantees that a lot of Tony's less organic issues—survivor's guilt, abandonment, family—just don't happen or are severely muted.
It's really, really weird working with an only mildly neurotic Tony. I kind of like it. o.o;
Right now, the piece I'm working on is specifically the older-Impressed GoldRider!Tony one. I decided to divide it up into three areas: Tony gets sick, Tony Impresses, Tony becomes a Weyrwomanperson. I've just finished with Part 2, and now I'm staring at Tony in the upcoming part 3 and sort of... lost, I guess? IDK. I know how I want it to go, but it's pretty much veering wildly away from everything and it's just very odd. Steve is much easier. His character isn't based so much on "my life sucked and now I am messed up beyond redemption". I just hope Tony is recognizable as Tony...
IDK. Maybe I'm just being too harsh on my own writing because I'm tired and grumpy. (cuddles Tony)
