soc_puppet: Words "Creative Process" in purple (Creative Process)
This is the one that started out as a prompt for [personal profile] alexseanchai:

LB & CN discussing their Problem Children, particularly the two who have yet to be akumatized; the akumatization rate for their class is ridiculous, and those two have got to be targeted by butterflies eventually, right? LB is about to volunteer to keep an eye on Marinette, when CN beats her to it: “I’ll watch out for Marinette if you can look in on Adrien from time to time?”


And [tumblr.com profile] kasienda added:

Ooh! I love this idea! Can I upvote [profile] art_deco_shrimp​‘s prompt?

Because Adrien’s a little turd! He’s making out like a bandit with both scenarios! I love it! Because he needs it!


And then I started thinking abut it at work today. )
soc_puppet: Miraculous Ladybug; the design from the Cat Miraculous: A green cat pawprint on a black field (Cataclysm)
...taunting me with plot bunny outlines that don't have proper endings!

Current Dust Plunny: Stealing Cat Noir's Pyjamas.

Outline-ish thing goes here )

Ha-HAH! With the majority of my brain powers restored and me mostly on the mend from that horrible throat cold thing that's been going around in these parts, I have finally gotten the willpower to finish this: my example of how to take a story idea and turn it into an outline!

It's Miraculous Ladybug, because that's what I'm into at the time of this writing, but I hope it still makes a modicum of sense to folks unfamiliar with the show. I'll probably go back and edit this again with a mind to that later, but for right now I'm pretty much happy that it's done at all. (Also, majority of brain powers restored is not entirety of brain powers restored, and giving my noggin a bit more of a rest while I'm still somewhat on the mend would not be remiss.)

(Yes, I probably should be using a Ladybug icon instead of a Cat Noir icon for this post, since I'm creating something, but I'm still editing that one and I'm finally happy with this one, so this is the one you get.)

Peer under the cut to find out how I go from Idea to Outline~! (ey said in eir best circus showperson voice) )

And that's a walkthrough of How to Outline as according to the Socchan School of Writing. (I will definitely need to revise my preliminary How to Outline post now.)

Side note/disclaimer: I do not actually plan to write this fic as of this point in time, which is one of the reasons I left Step 5 "incomplete". If this outline has piqued your interest and you might be interested in doing the grunt work of filling in scenes, uh. Maybe? Probably? IDK, if you're cool with the possibility that I may someday come back and write my own version, then go forth with my blessing (and link me when you're done). Edit: EXCEPT [personal profile] alexseanchai, who is not allowed anywhere near this until or unless they get more work done on the Double Trouble 'verse.
