Nawwww. I didn't even have the courage to revise my pr_snape story for posting in a regular archive. I really feel bad about not carrying on. I started working on it, but the mojo was simply gone. Which is probably what happened to you as well?
Brynhild is great fun to write. Of course, if I'm honest, she's rather a lot like Snape - if Snape were a woman, part-hag and with a different social background, that is ;). I think I had the most fanficcing fun when I was writing the two of them with their children for Phoenix Rising. And I'm wondering if I should give Art of Darkness another try. Then again, I have my Gawain Project. I wouldn't put it on the backburner in order to write fic - but should I have new Snapish inspiration, I'd write. You never know :).
I don't understand about people being afraid of giving their characters unlikeable traits. With Gawain, I have exactly the opposite: he's supposed to be so very nice and polite, I'll have to go against canon to make sure he's human and interesting and a teensy bit badass XD! I like my friends nice, but my characters a little bit nasty ;-)...
