Am I Too Late chapter three snippet

An excerpt from jayvik fic "Am I Too Late?" on ao3

Jayce hurried through the halls while his mind raced. His meeting with Silco had gone well, or at least that’s what he initially thought while he was still high off the adrenaline of meeting someone so dangerous. But now he was doubting himself. He was sure he’d negotiated right, the way Mel had taught him, but firmer. Yet Silco was not from Piltover. He was not a counselor or a rich man with influence in their world. He was a dangerous drug lord from the Undercity- from Zaun. He’d been around longer than Jayce and used different methods. Had things gone well?

Jayce was still alive. He’d walked away with an agreement with Silco. He just needed to convince the Council. And pray Silco gave up Jinx. He’d initially thought it would be a no brainer for Silco. Just give up one of his lackeys for peace between them. But his reaction had made Jayce wonder what Jinx was to him. Or did Zaunites have a deeper sense of loyalty for each other. Always under the foot of Piltover, they wouldn’t trade each other because without each other what did they have left? What if Silco refused to give up Jinx? Could Jayce still convince the council to let go of their control over Zaun?

He needed to find Viktor. He would be able to provide insight to Jayce’s dilemma, but also because Viktor would want to attend the meeting. Viktor came to most council meetings regardless, but this one was about his home. Jayce knew it was the right thing to do. It was maddening that it had taken this long for anything to come this close. For anyone to bring this issue before the Council in so long. Zaun deserved their freedom, and it was long past due.

Read from the beginning

(chapter four coming soon)

has this been done

they should invent a me who is not exhausted by simply being alive

me, reading my own incomplete writing : *gasp* and then what happened?

Made quick stickies for an upcoming con

I feel like this is an unpopular opinion, but more people should read incomplete/unfinished/in-progress fanfics.

I've noticed this huge trend where creators on tiktok and tumblr who will be explaining how to use Archive Of Our Own to new users and they always say "and make sure to scroll down and click completed only" or how people will go out of their way to mention they only read completed fics 'because they were traumatized when they forgot to check the dates and didn't realize this fic hadn't been updated since 2012'.

The thing is - I think by not engaging with and/or actively avoiding writer's WIPs readers are potentially adding to the aggregate of abandoned works. Now this obviously isn't the case for all abandoned fics, anything from major life events, to loss of interest, to getting busy can be a reason for a fic getting abandoned - but at least on some level I just know that writers are quitting while they're ahead when they aren't garnering any response or feedback because reading WIPs has become unpopular. If you're worried about reading something that hasn't been updated since 2012 then you can use the date updated function to sort out old fics.

Anyways, support your favorite fanfic writers by engaging with their WIPs.
