How does it feel like... to write?

A recent comment over on Impfics about the 'the different tones of the characters in my writing' has had me puzzling about how we write off and on for several days. Because each character is different and they will all react differently because of that.

And as strange as it may sound, the conclusion I came to is that the closest way I can explain how we write is that it's like Channelling.

The plot idea, or plunnies I guess, shows up during some random point and will hang around, pestering, until I sit down and write it out, in which case it usually kind of flows out. Things get jammed up and stop when I go 'Wait, Whut?' or try to meddle with it or get caught up in some sort of grammerical detail.
... Pointing and laughing is perfectly acceptable, as long as I continue writing while snickering.

There's even been several a few times when someone, usually a beta, will ask a question about what a particular character is doing/thinking/motivation and I'll stop and say "Wait, let me ask them." Then it's kinda like poking a sleeping person with a stick before running like heck, and getting some sort of muttered reaction or maniacal laughter in response, depending on the character and then I have an answer to give people.

... which sounds totally psycho or split personality, but it's not, really. But that's where a lot of the 'We' when I refer to ficcage comes from, because it's not just me, it's my own Voices and the characters and the plots and stuff.

Now that said, different fics have different feels to them as well.

Guard Dog feels like weaving a tapestry that we're not entirely sure what the picture is. Each sentence is another pass of the shuttle, each word another intersection of the threads. The current edits are tightening the warp and weft so it can bear the weight of the upcoming plots.
(That said, Jounouchi's the easiest to deal with, easy-going until provoked. Seto's sort of unpredictable because we never know when he's going to think with his pants. Mokuba and Yuugi are respectively the hardest, Mokuba cares about those around him but he's still a teen and is rather self-centred in his view of the world. Yuugi plays everything close to the vest, although he's not as hesitant as he was at the beginning.)

Shades of Grey, The Grey Zone and Grey Agency is kind of like a three-strand pearl necklace. Smokey grey pearls, each strand longer than the previous. Each chapter is another bead, or pearl, that gets strung onto the story.
-Grey Zone is still missing a few beads, but we have the ending clasp, fastened to the beginning of The Grey Agency. Grey Agency's got a few pearls on it's string, but we don't know how long the strand is.
(Kaito is Air, Saguru is Earth, Aoko is Water, Conan is Fire, Heiji is Metal, Mum is Air, Koizumi is Dark -which does not mean evil.)

Gordian Knot has a very peculiar feeling, kind of like ceramics and jewellery classes combined. It's not quite moulding clay or heating and hammering metal, and it's not like polishing or carving at all, but the result is like a multi-hued layered rock. How one creates a rock, I don't know, but that's what it feels like. It's much heavier in a lot of ways than most of our fics.
-It also looks heavier, visually with it's longer sentences and bigger paragraphs.

... How does it feel like to other people?
