Well, like I said above, they are super-paraphrased, so some are probably more confident (and less confident!) in the original files than they seem here. But yeah, I'd probably kill some of them on rewrite already, or at least redo them to switch the emphasis to something else.
...and it depends? About half of these stories are "I have spent way too long working on these original characters and have about nine novels worth of story for them so let's just goddamn write something short already" and about half of them are "if you think about it too long you'll come up with nine novels of plot and you want a short story so just goddamn write something before you learn too much about the characters".
I actually think the ones where I don't know the characters as well have less expository stuff, though: when I have a whole binder of backstory and worldbuilding I don't really know where to start and I want to tell you EVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT THIS CHARACTER AREN'T THEY COOL, whereas the more off-the-cuff ones I may only know what they did in this particular exciting moment so I start with that moment.
...and uh. Yeah. There are other more obvious differences between my original and fan writing, one of them being that I tend to forget to include male characters in the original stuff unless I purposely remind myself to...(I should probably get better about that but. ehhh. it's not like there's a shortage of male characters in sff overall.) Which sort of leads by default to having a lot of f/f (and genderqueer) romance. And strong independent ace ladies who live with their niece and defend the kingdom. (and much much less m/m than in fanfic, but then it's hard to have m/m when you constantly fail reverse bechdel-wallace. and pretty much all your male characters were created to be womens' love interests because you're like oh right, should probably acknowledge het is a thing.)
i am not procrastinating on actually writing stories shh nope
