Lazy NaNoWriMo 15+16+17
Nov. 18th, 2021 12:08 am So been busy with life, so writing was a bit sporadic. Monday I only got 40 words written, but then Tuesday I got 378 and today I got 317, which then brings my total up to 6,316 words. That's 2,000 more than my target for this point in the month, so I'm pretty proud of myself. Plus tonight, I managed to figure out a character's motivation, and thus a potential trajectory for this character arc, which is awesome, cause it means he was a reason for his actions aside from "he did a similar thing in canon, so he fits that role in the story".
Here's today's snippet. Enjoy.
That was as good a cue as ever, Bee stepped forward to stand with Optimus, who made the introduction. “Delta Blue, I am honored to introduce to you Alison Witwicky, Director of COTA and the Bearer of the AllSpark.”
“Bearer?” Breakaway asked. “You’re joking, right? There hasn’t been a Bearer since the Era of the Primes.”
The AllSpark pressed forward, and I stepped back to let her through. “~I can assure you, Breakaway, this is no joke. Alison put herself at great risk to protect Me and My children, and so I chose her to bear Me until the time comes for us to part.~”
Breakaway’s optics widened, and he bowed in the Nyon style, one arm crossed over the waist while the other was held flat at his side. “Apologies, my lady. I meant no insult.”
“~I’ll forgive you, this once. But do try not to do so again.~” She looked over the whole group of new Bots. “~I am pleased to see you all well, my children. I’ll be available to speak from time to time, but for now I’ll let Alison have control back, so you may properly meet her.~” She retreated and I stepped up again, smiling at everyone.
“Pleasure to meet you all. On duty, I’m Director or Miss Witwicky, but off the clock I hope you’ll call me Alison.”

“Alison? Whose Alison?”
