Writing Frustrations

Takeru knew how hard it could be to write a story about something he never experienced. (Takeru, his son)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Takeru knew how hard it could be to write a story about something he never experienced. He could sit there for hours making up a character for one of his ideas, and then spend the next three months trying to write one stupid page about it. It was frustrating, and after six failed attempts during his teenage years, Takeru swore he wouldn't try to do any excessive writing after that.
When Daisuke began disappearing for weeks at a time with his noodle cart business and Iori called to say he was busy with cases every day, he had considered taking up writing again to pass the time. It wasn't until Hikari had started teaching and Yamato announced he was signed up for a trip to the moon that Takeru actually did it. He needed something to do, after all, with his three best friends and brother gone.
And so the idea to make their Digital World adventures into novels crossed his mind. Everything from the first time they stepped foot in the strange world to Oikawa's sacrifice - it was something their families could read to understand just what kind of changes they had undergone thanks to the Digimon, and a bedtime story of sorts for their own children when they were old enough to understand.
But trying to find the words to describe it all was hell. He lost count of how many times he used the backspace key and found himself smacking the button with pent-up fury and annoyance.
"Just kill 'em all off," his son chirped happily from in front of the television. "It's becoming a bit of a common joke with people on-line when they discuss how to end their stories."
Takeru turned to face him, scowling. "And that's why I don't allow you on-line anymore. You read too much."
