fic talk: why write lot word when small word do trick?

groans. shorter fic is still so fuckin hard.

convergence was fun to write, even when i hit the inevitable slog point. i feel like every "shortfic" (i really hesitate to call it that, what i really mean is anything ~5k ish or less) i write is making me better at editing, though.
