Damn it Jason you ruin everything.

The document itself is a poor representation of the final page numbers and word count, but it's currently sitting at 423 pages and 228,000 words. How am I not done this yet?
BEFORE 2015. It needs to happen.
I am super antsy about sharing any of this. I enjoy writing it, and I make myself laugh, but the reason it's taken so long is just it doesn't quite meet my level of expectations. And if it doesn't even meet mine, how can I expect it to be good enough for other people to lay eyes on. I've debated sharing snippets of it for a long time. Maybe...

HERE.
He
stepped lightly on the catwalk, especially in one section where the
supports holding it to the wall and roof seemed a little loose. He
could see a figure lying prone on a section of the catwalk near the
middle. He noticed a ladder down to the second floor on the far side.
Ash had not moved and barely acknowledged Dedrad when he arrived.
Dedrad sat next to him, back resting against the rail behind him as
Ash grabbed a couple bands from the little pile next to him.
“Why are you
tormenting the research team?” Dedrad asked after a moment.
“Bored.”
“Training and
facility duties not enough to keep you occupied?”
“Woke up late.
No one told me to do anything, so I'm conducting an experiment.”
“An
experiment?”
“Yes, I am
determining the average number of elastic band shots required to piss
off members of the research team. Joey is the control.”
Ash fired an
elastic and it found its mark in the back of Joey's neck. Joey placed
a hand on his neck where it hit and looked around behind him for the
culprit. Ash chuckled and loaded another.
“I see you're
a real man of science.”
“Poten wants
me to apply what I'm learning. Just consider this applied physics.”
Ash adjusted his
aim and angle, and fired an elastic into the back of a woman working
at a computer. It hit her coat and dropped to the floor unnoticed.
Ash made a disappointed noise.
“As much as I
don't want to encourage you, experiments need to be repeated for
accurate results.”
“Tried it with
a gang once.”
“Really?”
“It was
hilarious until someone got stabbed.”
“That person
wouldn't have been you would it?”
Ash chuckled.
“I honestly
can't tell if you are being serious or not.”
Ash fired
another couple of bands. The two of them had to duck when the second
projectile hit a man in the face and he gazed wildly about to
determine where it had come from.
