if i had a nickel everytime i read a romantasy book about a poor girl from the streets who got picked to participate in a trial between rich kids with superpowers, while having to live at the palace where the two brothers fell in love with her before she betrayed them and ran away, i'd have two nickels.

Self care is writing fan fiction that you are the sole target audience for.

Chloe Bennet as Detective Lana Lee | "Interior Chinatown" 1x01 | "Generic Asian Man"

[flywitchesfly]

"Jimmy O. Yang, Chloe Bennet, and Ronny Chieng are trapped in a procedural in the first images from Interior Chinatown. They're characters on a TV show inside a TV show, with no way to escape. All ten episodes of the Hulu miniseries will drop on Hulu on November 19.

The new images give us a first look at Yang as Willis Wu, a background character in the Law & Order-like procedural TV series Black & White. He longs to become a more important character, but when he witnesses a murder, he finds himself becoming part of a larger world than he ever imagined. Helping him are Fatty Choi (Chieng), his best friend and a devotee of video games and malted beverages, and Detective Lana Lee (Bennet), a new lead character on Black & White. The series is based on Charles Yu's award-winning novel of the same name, which examines Asian-American stereotypes in the media with a humorous metafictional twist."

To anyone thinking of writing that shamelessly self-indulgent fic: please do it. Even if the trope’s been done a hundred times or it’s such a rare pair you think people will not give it a chance. You write the story you want to read, not what you think anyone else may or may not like. It’s not about numbers or hits or kudos. It’s about writing what you love. More of it, not less. Write the problematic pairing. Do the tropes (there’s only one bed? Yes, there is!). Include all the deleted scenes. Make all the plot twists. Fanfiction doesn’t have to conform to a word count; it doesn’t have to be streamlined and whittled down to only the most ‘plot relevant’ points. You’re not writing a book, you're writing fanfiction. It’s maybe the only space where you get to be as self-indulgent with your words as possible.

If it makes you happy, write it.

I love the new characters on OMITB but…

I really miss a lot of characters from the first two seasons. Of course there are the Dimases (that’s the plural of Dimas right? Lol), I’ve definitely heard people talking about how much they miss them. Mostly Theo, and hey me too. I do think there’s lots to revisit with these two. But also I ADORE Lucy! I would love to see more of Lucy. Her relationship with Charles is so unique and sweet. She sounds gen z without actually sounding like she was written by a boomer and I love her for it. She’s adorable and excitable and such a good addition to the show. I miss Will too. It’s strange how we barely got to see him in season three especially with Oliver’s medical issues. Oliver is a father and grandfather, but we barely hear him talk about them. What about Mabel’s mom? How is she doing?

I miss the other Arconia residents too. How is Nina doing with her baby and being the Arconia’s board president? How is Charles’ neighbor, Arnav Kapoor? He seemed nice and I wanted to get to know him more. What about Ndidi Idoko and Dr Grover Stanley? I mean that therapist was funny I’m sure you could do something with him.

I also wanna know about Mabel’s relationship with Oscar post season one. They were gonna be just friends but are they friends? Do they still talk? Did they have a falling out? How is he after everything?

How’s Detective William’s wife Kiara and son Keith?

What I love about the first couple seasons is how the Arconia feels like its own little world. There’s a community (of isolated people but still). Now the building feels a little emptier now we only really see Uma, Howard, and Lester. They’ve done so much to build a world here and I wanna continue living in it.

Theories 4x08

My top suspects at this point are Howard and the creepy chiropractor (who operated at the back of the bar).

Howard because he was the one who pointed the trio towards the Westies. My theory is that he planned to kill Charles and decided to shoot him from Dudenoff’s apartment because he knew about Dudenoff’s death and wanted to frame the Westies for both murders. He killed Sazz by mistake.

I think Howard has been working against the trio since the beginning 🤔

The chiropractor is just suspicious because she was so creepy in her scenes. It wouldn’t surprise me if she was somehow involved.
