babydracoSo I think, judging from the hits to each fic, people prefer girl!Abbie Hoffman to girl!Tom Hayden. To be fair, girl!Abbie is more fun to write and there's more I think I could have done with that (she and Tom have the potential for a Dharma and Greg vibe).
Like, one pairing says "Kind of bittersweet comedy about a guy in love with a weird girl" and the other says, "he means well but this guy might ruin her life".
(both versions of Tom also have different relationships with both versions of Rubin, because I think some of the traits that make a woman feel kind of safe with a guy, a guy might find worrying in a woman *contemplative emoji*).
Or maybe it's something to do with timing, and tags.
I also feel strongly that there's a scene missing, and it's doing something to the pacing but can't think of what to put there.
I got a sewing machine for Christmas. It's actually something I've wanted for years. Just need to find a place to set it up. Maybe in the new apartment. Because...I heard from the place I wanted to get into. Their waitlist opened in September and none of the people I asked to keep an eye out for me did or told me this. It was my aunt who let me know. But they still have places, and this is only Phase One, there's more construction of other units on the way, and I'm not exactly homeless right now.

It's actually not in an area that's more exciting and accessible, it's less! But it seems like a nicer neighborhood and the apartment is, afaik, waaay better.
