SNAFU - falls on nose

[icarus]

I just finished the edits to SNAFU. *fwooomp.* Now have to go over them and fix the parts that I skipped.

This fic has been a struggle from beginning to end. But I received this review:

"AHHH!!! Oh no! You haven't updated in so long! Please tell me that you are continuing this fic! I loved this story line so much and I honestly want to know how everything works out with Ron and Draco... will Percy help them or betray them?! I'm dying to know! Merciful heavens I hope you continue writing this!"

Anyone who tells you they are unaffected by pleas for updates either is lying to you, or has no heart. *nose to grindstone.*

I'll let you know when SNAFU's done -- I'll announce wherever I can. But do you mean the entire Beg Me For It series? Because it's a little known fact that SNAFU is the last piece of the puzzle. The later parts have been written for over a year, but have been on hold because of the struggles with SNAFU.

See - I didn't even realise quite how big this was. Struggle on, then! And good luck with it.

Oh yes, this is the next part of Beg Me For It.

1 - Beg Me For It, (the defeat of the Ministry and retreat of Dumbledore's forces; Lucius establishes prison labor to run the "understaffed" Ministry; Ron and Percy's capture, and the rescue of Draco; Ron begins to plan.)

2 - Sex, Drugs and Death Eater Rock, (how Ron and Draco cope with their untenable situation and each other; the plan develops.)

3 - Hey You, (daily life in the Death Eater Ministry, just how bad it is; and preparing to fight; Percy finally chooses sides.)

4 - SNAFU, (the battle for the Ministry; Ron's plan kicks into action as Dumbledore's forces attack.)

5 - Stand In The Ruins, (the aftermath of the battle for the Ministry. This is done, but can't be published yet because it's one long spoiler.)

6 - Scarred, (after war, the world returns to normal? How Ron and Draco cope with normal. This is also done.)

Each part is supposed to more or less stand on their own, and once SNAFU is done, I can put the other pieces on the table. Once SNAFU is done, the entire arc will be complete.

Brilliant! It must be so frustrating for you to sit on the completed pieces and have to wait...

To clarify...

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

Er.

So that means that when SNAFU's done you'll have an entire story to read. Scarred is already published, and Stand In The Ruins is coming out two days after SNAFU.

Are you going to have it anywhere on your site where all the parts are put together so they arnt seperate stories, but a long continuous one- for those who want to read the whole thing all at once (over a period of time of course.. thats a log of reading. :P) I've read everything except which hasnt come out, but its been awhile. I'm going to just start all over, but I'm waiting till its all done first.

Yes, I have it all linked in order, drabbles, everything, just click the link to Beg Me For It here (http://www.percyfest.muse-wanted.com/icarus_fiction). At the bottom there's a link to the next story in the series.

I just checked with the Beta. She's working on it. *gleeful bounce*
