Folks act like "maybe the author isn't the final authority about what their work means" is some wanky post-modern nonsense and not a simple recognition that a lot of authors are perfectly prepared to bullshit about their own work. Like, leaving big-name popular media aside, I have personally encountered authors being actively disingenuous about their own work for all of the following reasons:

A true answer wouldn't fit the image they've cultivated.

They've decided they like the explanation the readers/viewers have come up with better than what they actually had in mind.

Something that was originally intended as a standalone work ended up growing into a franchise or series, and now they're pretending that was the plan all along for some reason.

They don't want to admit that the bit you're asking about is genuinely just a plot hole.

The real answer gets into some shit they don't care to discuss, so they've prepared a cover story to explain away the parts they don't want to talk about.

Their politics have changed since they wrote it, but they don't want to acknowledge that, so they're constantly trying to re-interpret everything they've ever written to be perfectly consistent with whatever their positions are this week.

They wrote it decades ago and they honestly don't remember what they were thinking at the time, so they're just making shit up; sometimes they also don't remember what shit they made up the last time, so the answer is different every time they're asked.

The work in question is at least partly autobiographical and they can't tell the truth without confessing to a crime in the process.

Most of the good bits are plagiarised and they don't really understand it themselves.

They're lying to you on purpose, for evil reasons.

Thank you I'm sick of the content where Bob switches to sentry randomly and it's supposed to be hot😭 or when sentry and the void are having conversations with bob in his head. Please they're the same person, in the comics he has DID but in the film he's clearly bipolar. Him having a depressive episode during sex isn't hot please stop having the void and sentry act like the characters from moonknight, just write moonknight fics😭😭

You know what isn't a crime, but definitely should be one? The casual mischaracterization of Sentry in fan content. I'm so done😭

1. I hate how he's often depicted as cruel, he's not, look at him, fucking look? And when Ava asks about the hair dye, what does he do? He looks to Val for an answer, he's constantly fidgeting, trying to find an out for the bunch of misfits who previously helped him in the vault.

2. I hate how people try to turn it into a Marc Spector, Steven Grant and Jake Lockley situation when it's. Like. Not?? This is such a disservice to both Moon Knight and The Sentry, and real people who relate to the two characters' (very distinct very different) mental health issues. Bob doesn't have DID, if anything, the movie leans towards him being bipolar. Sentry is Bob, the guy literally tells Yelena in the vault that he has high highs and low lows, the high is Sentry, the low is the Void, that's it. Bob is both Sentry and The Void. What's so hard to understand? It's the mania (Sentry), followed by depression (Void) then he forgets. That's how Bob describes it in the first act of the film, that's how it happens in the third act.

3. This is not a contradiction to point 1, but Sentry is unhinged. He is awkward and somehow soft spoken? But he is unhinged, and invincible, and fucking terrifying. I'm tired of the stoic depictions in fics like🙂‍↔️ idc if you wanna write fics for comic Sentry, just don't tag them as mcu stuff. (WHO AM I KIDDING COMIC SENTRY IS FUCKING SCARYYY STOP THE BABYFICATION)

4. He is not evil (the fact that we have to spell this out... media literacy is truly dead huh), no shit the Thunderbolts* will be scared of him, of course they will be– he kicked the ever-living shit out of them. But he's not malicious, he doesn't use unnecessary force. Call it condescending, but he's going easy on them, toying with them, and deals arguably softer blows to Yelena, John and Ava, the trio he already met at the vault (because he's the same person, yk? jesus)

5. Prespective is a thing, the team wasn't there to see Sentry tell Val he doesn't want to kill them (they're no threat to him), it's the root cause of their disagreement, it leads to the New York Blackout TM, but we, the audience, were. So tell me why the fuck do I see stuff with this guy terrorizing that team for no reason? 😭 bfr guys.

6. So what? So while I can buy you showing me Ava or John or Alexei or Bucky or Yelena being fearful of the Sentry, or Val (hahaha eat shit Val), I simply can't get behind him actually being a threat to them, on purpose and beyond swatting them like flies, because hi hello have you seen the movie? Yeah.

7. Have I mentioned Sentry is unhinged? Yeah. Yeah. We got glimpses of it with Val before Mel pressed the kill switch but!! Sentry!! Is!! Unhinged!!

8. Find a middle ground, he doesn't have to be uwu or straight up satan or stoic as a rock, he is Bob in mania, so that's inherently Bob with high levels of energy and a higher self esteem (more like a GODLY EGO) and impulsivness and dillusions of grandeur (except they're not dellusions anymore? So rip), so do with that what you will.

Fingers crossed for more in-character Sentry content, at least the Sentry depicted by Lewis Pullman, who put his all into this performance but whose character is still somehow misunderstood? Anyways.

Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

Ok, but I’ve seen no one talk about the representation of Bob’s manic episode as Sentry. Hear me out.

He describes himself in the movie as having really high highs and really low lows. They never use the word but that’s clearly bipolar he’s describing. A manic episode followed by a depressive one.

The Void is clearly the representation of his depressive episode. Obviously. But I really think that fight as blonde boy Sentry was his mania.

It’s not the typical manic depiction we’re used to seeing, he’s very very calm during that scene. But a lot of times when experiencing mania people describe themselves as feeling indestructible, unstoppable. Bob literally calls himself a god. That’s, that’s mania, babes.

His mental health manifests in his powers. He literally becomes indestructible. He literally becomes nothing, a void.

In addition: In the end credit scene he says he can’t be Sentry without also being The Void. They go hand in hand, just like bipolar. Now, I know nothing about this guy’s comic counterpart, but going off of what the movie has shown us, I’m assuming that if he gets his mental health managed, he’s going to have both power sets. He’s going to have the Superman like powers and the shadow like powers. They’re intermingled.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who..

MDNI: Smut, fem! Reader, perv Nam-gyu, obsessive behavior, panty stealing, lot of masturbation, sexual coercion, degradation, power imbalance, yk nasty stuff ect ect

Childe version here:

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who.. worships the ground you walk on…

…literally licks the floor where your feet just were. If you step in gum? He’s peeling it off with his fingers and keeping it like a holy gift.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who..…if he sees you smile at someone else?..That person goes missing faster than your last tampon.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who.. Comes home covered in bruises, blood all over his body, and his first move? Gropes you like nothing happened.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who.. always sits on the floor... Chin in his hands, legs tucked under like a pervy little schoolgirl watching her crush.

Eyes glued to your hips, tongue peeking out while he stares at your mouth like it’s something he’s not worthy of but would sell his soul to taste. "You’re so pretty... so sexy... so… fuckable…" And he says it out loud. Always. Even around other people.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who.. gets HARD just from watching you chew gum. Like you blink slow and he’s already moaning under his breath.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who screams and GIGGLES every time you say yes to sex

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who..Lasts three minutes. Like three struggled, desperate, whimpering minutes. And then IMMEDIATELY wants to go again. Boner revived.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who..keeps your dirty panties in ziplocks under his pillow,, rubs his cock on them every night while humping a body pillow with your name written on it in with his own blood.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who..Can’t cum unless he’s thinking about you crying, screaming, or slapping him.. your disgust is his dirty pleasure.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who.. Loves masturbating to pics of you mid-yawn, mid-walk, mid-anything.. if your skin is showing?, he’s leaking.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who.. Gets hard if you step on his foot by accident. Full erection. Instant. He won’t walk for 10 minutes just to "savor it."

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who..Fills his phone with secret audio recordings of your laugh, your voice, your moans (or sneezes..he’s weird like that). Plays them on loop while edging.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who..Gets off on being degraded. The dirtier you treat him, the faster he cums. "Pathetic," "sick freak," "cum puppet"... he’ll bust from the words alone.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who.. Always finishes embarrassingly fast. Like 2–3 minutes max. Then cries, begs, and asks for forgiveness while still hard and twitching.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who.. Will hump anything with your scent on it: your towel, your pillowcase, the seat you just got up from. Sometimes without even pulling his pants down.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who.. is obsessed with your spit. Licks it off cups, straws, gum you left behind. Once jerked off with your leftover lip balm and came instantly.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who.. Sucks on the ends of your hair when you're not looking and moans like he's deepthroating. Keeps strands he finds on the floor in a jar.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who.. Has cum in your shoes. More than once. Wears your socks on his dick to stroke himself when he’s feeling sentimental.

Yan! Perv! Nam-gyu who.. If you leave a mark on him.. scratch, bruise, bite?? he doesn't treat it for days. Stares at it while jerking off. Cries when it fades.

Requested: Yes! Also sorry for this taking so long I had it scheduled and it never posted 😭

He shows up at your place at 1:42AM, hoodie on, eyes wide, jaw tense—sweaty, trembling, pacing like he can’t be still. He’s knocking like the world’s ending.

The moment you open the door, he’s already begging. “One pill. Please. One. I’ll do anything.” His voice cracks mid-sentence and you know he means it.

If you try to close the door, he drops to his knees and physically holds onto your leg. Doesn’t even care how pathetic he looks.

“I’ll eat you out right here. Just give me something. I’ll make you cum so hard you forget what I even asked for.”

You can see the need in his eyes—and it’s not just the pills anymore. It’s you. He’s been using, but somehow you’ve become the real addiction.

———-

He’ll mouth over your thighs like he’s worshipping you, nuzzling between your legs with soft little whines. “Let me taste it. Come on, baby. You know I’m good with my mouth.”

He moans while going down on you, like your pussy is healing him. And the more you squirm, the messier he gets. Tongue everywhere. Soaked face. Shameless.

“Fuck—you like that? You want more? Let me fuck you. You can sit on the bag of pills while I do it. I don’t care.”

When he finally fucks you, it’s wild. Hair-pulling, breathless whining, his hands gripping your hips like a lifeline. He’s slamming into you, almost crying because it feels too good.

“You’re better than the high. Swear to God, I’d die inside you and thank you for it.”

———

He doesn’t want to leave after. He’s curled into your chest, sweaty and still half-hard, whispering shit like:

“You’re all I got.”

“You’re better than anything in that bag.”

“Let me stay. I’ll be good. I’ll be yours.”

Will beg for another round just to avoid coming down. He’ll say he needs your body more than he needs the drugs—half a lie, half the truth.

And if you do give him a pill after? He kisses your hand like you’re his savior. Like he just sold his soul and wants to thank you for owning it.

Authors note: This is rushed af lol so hope yall like this!

Love ya, Moon

Thinking about how namgyu's hair looks like he originally had a fringe and then stopped cutting it. How it mightve looked like minsu's hair before he grew it out. Short on the sides with a blunt fringe. Neat and tidy. Maybe it was before he got addicted to heroin (or whatever drug he shoots up, could be anything ig).

Thinking about how namgyu is minsu and minsu is namgyu and they're both cowards and followers and leeches and how quickly minsu became obsessed with the pills and how quickly it ruined him and how he ended up just the same as namgyu in the end and maybe namgyu had the same hair as him before everything went wrong and-

hot take: the problem with doctor who is NOT that they brought billie piper back, it is NOT that ncuti left early, it is NOT that 15 never faced a dalek or a cyberman, and it is CERTAINLY NOT that it’s ’too woke’

the problem with doctor who is that they have forgotten how to engage an audience without utterly confusing them. if i were a writer, this is what i’d change:

1. i would lower the stakes

my biggest issue with dw in recent years is that the stakes are always SO high - it’s always ‘we need to sort this out or else the ENTIRE UNIVERSE WILL END. this rarely happened at the start of nuwho. of course, there were instances where galaxies and universes were at stake, but there were also plenty of instances where the doctor solves issues to A. save his own skin, B. save his friends, and C. to save smaller populations of people and/or generally do what is morally right.

prime example is in new earth. the world isn’t really at stake, he has a couple of objectives: get cassandra to piss off, free the test subjects, stop the infections from spreading. he doesn’t spend the hour worrying that if he doesn’t help then the world will end, he sees a problem that’s morally corrupt and he solves it for the sake of that group. the payoff is just as good, and actually IMPROVES the payoff for episodes where a bit more is at stake, like the poison sky, for example.

2. i would stop plots from spilling over across seasons

i’d like to remind everyone that, although there were things that kind of linked into each other and were mentioned again, generally for the first 4 seasons of (new) doctor who, an overarching issue was built up, climaxed, and resolved throughout a single season. for example: bad wolf in s1. this has gotten worse and worse over time but has honestly been a problem since rtd1 ended, and for some reason when he came back it got WORSE than it’s ever been!!! there’s just way too much overspill across seasons, things even span accross different doctors more recently which is just too much at times. when it’s little things it doesn’t matter, but it’s not. again, this has been an issue before this finale, but this finale is a good example since there were a hundred and one loose ends before he regenerated. when nuwho began, they literally stated each regen would be treated as a soft reboot and their neglect of that has been a downfall.

3. i’d make doctor who dirty and grungy again

it’s too clean futuristic ultra modern sci-fi these days. the tardis doesn’t look like he stole it. what happened to those fun tardis scenes where the entire thing would shake as it took off and landed? why is everything so light and clean? it should be dim and cozy and imperfect.

4. i’d make the companions’ family members more prominent and interesting characters again

doesn’t take much explaining, really. picture jackie tyler, now picture carla sunday. who has a stronger presence and personality in your head and why is it jackie tyler? (there’s bound to be someone who disagrees and that’s fine but i don’t rlly want to hear about it tbh)

5. i’d re-inject some british whimsy

please don’t mistake this as me saying doctor who ‘isn’t british’ or something weird and gammon-y like that, i love when dw explores different cultures, the story and the engine was one of my highlights last season, i just mean like - let him save the world with a jammy dodger again. let him be brought back to life by a good cup of tea. it makes it enjoyable.

there are lots of things, but those are my main ones.

EDIT: thank you to everyone who has weighed in on this - i’ve found it really interesting to see everyone’s perspectives on this because honestly i could talk for king and country about it, but also i just wanted to say that it makes me kind of sad that one of my only negative posts about doctor who is my most popular post :( if you’re reading this, it’s your sign to do something positive today, if i can help to make just one person’s day better then that’s a win to me :)

SUGGESTIVE and DANGEROUSLY FREAKY‼️

GOD whats a freak gotta do around here to get someone to draw Scandalabra… ahem, ‘polishing his knop’. With how insane this fandom is I’m shocked someone hasn’t done it yet
