My muse has officially gone off the everloving deep end.

So I'm knee-deep in a fandom at the moment. And I cracked and started writing fic about it.

Part one was supposed to be it. Angst, fluff...yaye bam we're done.
Then came part two. More fluff, more angst.
Part three, same as the first two.

Only now. Part four. Has gone off the rails. My muse was like "oh, angst? Yeah, I need to top the first three stories, so here~"

And I'm left sitting here going "WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?!"

So yes. Any advise for telling a muse "no you cannot break all the feels this was supposed to be LIGHTHEARTED AND FUN"?

Kittens, puppies, and My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. As much as there are planty of grimdark or angsty fics for that show, it's a lot easier to write fluff because of the show's own fluff.

Alternatively, read over-angsty or over-grimdark stories. Those'll give you so much angst, your muse will force you to write fluff as an antidote.

Oooh. Thank you. I shall have to try that! All of that :3

That might be part of the problem, actually.
There's...not really fluff in the movie itself. So writing fluff tends to be an exercise in and of itself. Whereas angst is easy to pull off...
