almost midway thru pt3 in my reread and maybe the thing that's the most amusing to me is actually that karl just steadily puts on weight as the story progresses bc the longer i was writing the more i decided he'd be more attractive if he was chunky. like looking back on it now i had ethan give him some sweats bc there's not that much of a size diff in canon, ethan's got some old sweats with worn out elastic, it'll work.
but rereading that part now, as karl has just gotten progressively wider as i've been writing i'm just like oh no lmao. i'm sure everyone pictures him however they'd like regardless, but it's just very funny to me. that elastic's gotta be VERY worn out.
( oh wait i remembered a scene i was gonna add to pt4 )
anyway maybe later (much later lol) i'll feel like going back and doing little bonus ficlets for stuff i had to ax. i do also still want to go back and write karl pov for the first three fics, but especially pt2 which he spends having/staving off a series of offscreen breakdowns lmfao. every time i reread pt1 i'm just like "REALLY wanna continue 'creep on creepin on' but i CAN'T gotta write NEW STUFF." and then i reread pt2 and it's just like, incredibly funny to me that karl spends the entire fic Really Goin' Through It but none of that's actually onscreen.
Ethan: /repeatedly falling down and crawling around in holes or whatever
Karl: /gets another 'ethan died' ping while on breakdown #3/ oh foR FUCK'S SAKE, WINTERS
