Quentin Tarantino, a great writer, has said that if you're doing it right and have developed fully fleshed-out characters, they become more than your puppets, take on a life of their own, and can surprise you with what they do, just like in real life.

Yours is the first, and probably only considering that I'll be closing this thread later today, comment to address the last part of my original post.
I don't even consider myself a writer, much less a good one, but I can certainly see how characters start guiding the plot development after a while. Mine are starting to take a more defined shape in my mind and as such it's becoming easier to assess how they'll behave in certain situations, and as a result I can tell how it makes more sense to adjust the plot to them than them to the plot... which is relatively easy considering that I literally only planned an opening scene and a backstory for the two protagonists and from there I just made shit up as I went. For example I originally wasn't planning for one of the them to have a past as a criminal, but it fits her set of skills too well to not make her one.

Thanks for the train! The jigidi was good, the vibrant colors helped a lot :)

This thread was originally going to be called "Wait, have I never made a jigidi train? Let's fix that ASAP!" but when I went to create an account on jigidi I discovered I already had one... so yeah, I completely forgot that in fact I have made a jigsaw-gated train once before. But that was over seven years ago, no wonder I had completely forgotten about it.
But that was back then and this is right now, the fact that I couldn't go with the title I wanted to doesn't mean that I'm going to back down or anything. Specially because I had already made all the giveaways by the time I realized my mistake :P
So, yeah. Here's the jigsaw puzzle in question.
It shouldn't take too long (says the guy that usually takes like half an hour or longer to solve one of these).
The GAs start at level 0 and end at level 5, one per level, three of them have never been bundled before (as far as I can tell) but those have some light region restriction because it comes with the territory when buying keys these days I guess. If I messed up something at some point please let me know so I can fix it.
I don't really have anything else to say to be honest, didn't make this for any particular reason, I just felt like doing so and had the keys... I've been forcing myself to write every day for a couple of weeks now, even if it's just a couple of paragraphs, as some sort of late new year's resolution I guess. Don't know if it'll go anywhere but I already have 30 pages of a story that seems to be taking shape despite the fact that I'm literally winging it as I go, only planning as far ahead as a couple of scenes at most.
Have you been doing any sort of new year's resolution thing of your own?
Mood music? I just happened to have been listening to this as I prepared this whole thing, among a couple other playlists, the name seems fitting tho.
