Episode 6, 8, and other thoughts.

Hey y'all, it's me, your Dreamer of Sadistic proportions or something. So I've got myself in a small--small, mind you, writing knot that I hope you all can help untangle.

It's not the writer's block, the weird truth that sounds like a brag about Yuki is that, half the time, the plots just come together fully formed. 

I'm not kidding, that's just...  that's just me and Yuki. I don't have this for any other project, I'll stress about themes, plots, jokes, characterization for every other project I have (mostly my safe for work ones), but not Yuki. To me it just feels like a project that already exists that I'm just uncovering in its well preserved sexy state piece by piece. 

The conundrum is I started writing Episode 6... three times. I now have three different standalone Episode 6 ideas. Both stories are completely fresh in my mind, the problem isn't writing either of them, it's which one deserves the priority of being Episode 5 and which one gets moved to Episode 8.

Both are flashbacks to Yuki's pre-solo Bounty Hunting career:

1) Her time in a tight knit Bounty Hunting crew of gritty Sci-Fi badasses--who I conceptualized before that Mandalorian episode and I have the Dirtypenpals prompts to prove it. Led by a daring and edgy Pirate Lord and a pain dealing Narnite girl who, of course, both sleep with Yuki . Essentially they pull a hostage job and we get to see some of Yuki's darker impulses come to light, contrasted with a more empathetic side.

2) Her time as a prostitute on the streets of Phoraxis V, and how she cleverly escaped her pimp. It's dark, but with a bit of heart.

Let me know what sounds the most enticing, I will do both since I'm in love with both ideas. Thanks all.
