So, occasionally my muse betrays me. I'll get an idea of the flow of events in a story, move it through interaction in the direction I plan, conversation happens, and...
Then suddenly, in the flow of the writing, one of the characters does or says something that completely derails my plans. Case in point: my original idea for the camp raid was to have Spurt/Peter wake up, disrupt the guys timing then, and an unnamed member of the Curtis Brighton shelter promise to colder for him. That's what was supposed to happen.
Then, Maddie was there, and she decided that "Brandon" needed to lay his head low to avoid being shot, and by God he was gonna do so if she had to hold him down.
Best laid plans, and all that. It's an interesting result that changed a few things from my outline.
Other times, the changes are more disastrous, such as the debacle with Susannah Walker's Observe data. That... was not awesome.
