Well, here it is! Not only the start of a new fic, but my first fic centered around a feral captive in over three years! In terms of the number of stories, that's not as big a gap as it sounds like (I did spend a full year having only written one giant fic), but it still dawned on me how long it had been. I first hit the scene with mostly tales of feral captives, and I felt bad straying so far from my roots for so long. Plus, Bolt's been in my sights for a while, so it all just added up.
Especially because ... well, let's just say that if I'd chosen to write a Bolt fic even two years ago, the story I have planned is not the one I would've written. This is going to be a venture into a few new areas for me plotwise. For one, I anticipate this being my most humor-driven story to date. Not that there won't be heavy drama (I can't resist), but to match the humorous tone of both the movie and my ideas, I want to play around with tones more. And from this first chapter, you can see that. If I'm not mistaken, this is the first time I've started a story from the villains' perspective, setting the stage for their motivation while also building up some unknown thread that will, of course, be revealed in time.
Oh, and why not slip in some very brief DiD while I have the chance? ;)
This is also the shortest single chapter I've written in years, largely because of the much brisker pace that I always say I'm gonna try but never commit to. This time, considering how much there is to cover with this story in particular, I really want to try the somewhat more concise approach. I feel that would match the energy of the story and the world of Bolt anyway, and this is a sample of what it looks like. So let me know what you think! Is it too light on details or too fast? Is it just right or more fitting than the style of my previous fics? Is it too early to tell? As always, feedback is appreciated! :)
Next time, we'll introduce Bolt himself and see how he's been doing since the movie. See you then! :D
