Radical solutions

wiseheart... are needed sometimes. So today I took down "Torchwoodgate" both from AO3 and FF.Net, for safety's sake. There is no way I'd be able to properly rewrite Chapter 4 within the next 5 days or so, and if someone was vengeful enough to report the story on AO3, they might come after me on FF.Net as well. And FF.Net has the tendency to yank one's entire account without warning - I didn't want to risk that. I wrote up the statistics in my diary and saved the reviews to my HD, but that's that. A shame, it was one of my more popular stories. *sigh*
I also locked the chapter on LJ for maintainers only on my comm, just in case. Since I'm the only maintainer, I won't report myself. And other people will just have to live with the fact that there's a chapter they won't be able to access for a while.
I was also radical re: the deep sea page. Since I've botched up two different sea creatures, I decided to leave their places empty and add them later, when I'm more inspired. They'll be fixed with press studs, so I can add them any time I want, even when the book is finished and bound already. Instead, I sew on the rest of the applications, like the seashell-shaped sequins and the sparkly pom-poms that are meant to represent sea-hedgehogs, as well as a lot more pearls for the coral. I'm fairly pleased with the outcome, and this way I'll be able to stitch the deep sea page together with the castle puzzle page, even though two elements are still missing, and seam them.
Other than that, I worked a lot on my Big Fishies(TM) - two of them are nearly done, another two only missing the eyes, and another three bases are cut out. The cunning plan is to make all 7 of them so far ready that only the mouths would need to be added. We'll see.
