Where'd that come from?

I'm working on a fic for the first numbers challenge of the year. There's an inconsequential character aggravating an established character and, often in circumstances like this, I go with the first name that pops into my head. Which is usually the name of the artist I'm listening to, a character from a book I'm reading, whatever.

So, what's the name that just popped into my head?

VELMA.

Why, I don't even know. I haven't watched Scooby-Doo since the girls were little. And I haven't even seen any commercials for it lately. But WHAMMO, there it was.

I'm not calling her that, by the way. I'm going to go with Veronica, I think. But dang. I need a vacation. Hahaha.

I was wondering where Travis came from.

I had been trying to get away from fanfic, but hadn't written any original stuff in a long time. So, I took Wes and Travis and tried to create something similar, but not. And in the end, neither Travis nor Ethan are anything like their fanfic counterparts, with the exception that both Ethan and Wes are cops.

Probably more info than you wanted. :)

Happy to hear it. Most of what comes out of my mouth doesn't. :D
