Chapter 15 of the prequel fanfic What Could Have Been is still in progress. Content-wise I’ve finished up the meeting with the DA and moved on to the (anticlimactically short) trial, and soon it will be time for him to pick out a place to live while he is legally confined to an unfamiliar city and to begin work at STAR Labs.
Hmmm…. I might want to add a bit to the trial just so that the DA’s actually involved.
The story, as previously mentioned, is available on Archive of our Own (linked above), fanfiction.net, and deviantArt…
And once again I warn new readers, the story begins with Len working for the Santinis themselves, not as a common thug as he might have preferred, but as a honey-pot, one whose job is to seduce and most likely sleep with his marks. In addition to his discomfort at being forced to work for them in that capacity, there is also the matter that this leads to a (mutually) non-consensual scene between himself and Tess Morgan; while the previous two sites have the story rated as “Teen” due to my efforts to keep things vague, three chapters are marked as “Mature” over on deviantArt.
Word-count-wise, I made quite a bit more progress but not enough for a buffer.
Daily goal (as always): 1667 words
Daily count: 2771
Total goal: 3333
Total count: 4519
Report card reports: At this rate, you will finish on Nov 23.
