Doing the big organization for Monsters (finally... don’t ask why it took so long to get to this point... life....).
Reviewing one arc at a time while engaging in copypasta mania, organizing a super-clean, super-organized, super-awesome Scrivener file with everything I’d ever possibly need in it and NO MESS. (hahahahah, just wait a few months).
Starting with the Lu arc because that is the best, easiest, least messy place to start.Realized that I needed to make some minor additions to the structure of the conflict (<--- in progress today and tomorrow as top To Do item).
Needed to refresh my memory on a very close read of all the times Lu says “I’m sorry” in canon. Copypasta’ed all of it into one short file and ... oooooooohhhhhhhh I REMEMBER THESE IMPLICATIONS INCLUDING THE VERY SLY IMPLICATIONS IN THE VIDEO/TIMING AND HOW “I’m sorry” is a freaking horror story. As in, this is literally a horror story.Â
And I am remembering how when I first realized this, the whole damn idea for Monsters fell out of the sky and hit me over the head and ..... right. This is the core of it all.
oh god. oh god. this.Â
(I mean, there are a few ways you could read the implications of this text, all supported by the script/canon, but the particular reading I’ve selected is full of such deliciously WRONGNESS and it just feels so good and so bad and so awful and so HORRRRRRRORRRR and EWEWEWEWEWEWEWEWEW. EW. EW. EW. YES. ewewewew.)
Right. I remember all the meta I wrote about this on dream width back in early 2017. *shudders at the horror of it*
