someone asked me what if adam and steve switched vampire and werewolf...

And then since my monsters are purposefully not much visually different because of metaphors, I went more traditional vampire and werewolf...

and then I got carried away...

seeing characters be stripped of their personality so they can be shipped with another character in the "dynamic" or whatever the person who's using them wants makes me so angry like you guys have no idea like why ?? Just find a different character that fits that criteria actually ?? At this point it's not the same character anymore ??? Do you even actually like that character if they have to be shaped the way you want them to ??

And same with the friend/canon partner or love interest of the character being villainized for no reason because they need a bad guy for the "alpha strong" person of the relationship to protect the other from like omg guys

Characters being villainized just because they're "ugly" or a girl even when theyre only a foil to the ACTUAL VILLIAN that killed thousands of people and regrets like nothing

Ignoring female characters that are complex and interesting for a random male side character

How people treat female characters

Sorry for ranting ((ﾟ□ﾟ;))

tbh of all the adverse effects of stigmas that we know about so far, I think Romeo's is the most cruel to him specifically. like even though it seems like it's not that bad, if he wants his stigma to be truly effective, he has to give up something that means something. and while for some people it's alright to give up objects for a purpose - they're just things - for romeo especially, it's actually devastating. he might just be the kind of person to get attached to items, but... when you think of his past, it gets to be more than that.

whatever happened with his family made him lose everything. that kind of instability from people around him is gonna make him value the things around him even more. money and repute are flimsy and will disappear easily. his favorite things will need to be pried out of his cold dead hands. they're far harder to take from him.

unless he needs his stigma to be effective.

My last post made me want to spin the ballet au to suit the general cast, keeping Es as the protagonist 🩰

I don't have art for this one but I still got a bit carried away with the details LOL This definitely leans more into a sweet fix-it :3

The story would open with Es waking up in the medical room of Milgram Dance Academy, a very small and isolated school. Es is told they suffered a bad head injury during a performance, resulting in amnesia. Their instructor (Jackalope. Make this work however you wish.) tells them not to worry about it, and to focus on their dancing for now. Es feels a pressing responsibility to stay and rehearse, so they agree.

Jackalope tells them they must understudy several roles while recovering, not ready to jump into things right away. They're grateful, since they're struggling with their identity and expression without their memories.

The first student they are directed to is a shy and lanky dancer by the name of Haruka. They study under him as the role of a graceful, melancholic swan. They watch the choreography in general, and it looks nice enough. Es proceeds to spend several rehearsals with him, talking and bonding and learning he has a bit more going on than meets the eye. They try to offer help as he admits to familial issues, self esteem questions, and comments about sibling jealousy. In turn, he teaches Es to mimic some of his powerful emotions. At the end of their time together, they both perform for their class in full costume and staging. Now, Es understands each move with a deeper understanding than their initial look at the steps.

Next, they’re sent to meet the bubbly girl playing Juliet and begin the process anew. This continues to make a total of ten roles. Some of the dancers take the sessions kindly, while others are brash, secretive, or just confusing.

After rehearsing with Kotoko and learning to understand her determination and confidence, Es is sent back to Haruka, who has moved onto a new show and new role. They’re shocked to discover that their words to each dancer – always well-intentioned – had caused some issues backstage. Now, there are rivalries and changes in stage presence. While experiencing stress (that Es has inadvertently caused,) some were distracted in rehearsal and got injured. Es must take on the interpersonal issues as well as the choreography challenges.

I don’t have all the roles down and was trying to stick to well-known shows anyway, but I think I’d want Muu to be the Sugar Plum Fairy, Kazui to be Albrecht from Giselle, and Amane to be Clara. I wanted to keep them traditionally gendered to prove there are plenty of roles for men, but I can’t help but have Odette/Odile thoughts for T1 Mikoto ;-;

Like the other post, I'm equally tempted to have the dancers performing ballet adaptations of the mvs 👀 I want to see. Bee tutu. Doctor coat costume. Marching band tutu. AKAA mismatched look. The backgrounds. The music. The choreo. So many cool possibilities...

As a sweet au, it all ends with everyone better for having met one another. Es is cast in a solo performance, combining everything they've learned both emotionally and technically from the others. They feel satisfied with their sense of identity, and shine onstage ✨️✨️✨️

Reading Romeo & Juliet for the first time thinking it's gonna be a slow burn.

Tf you mean all of this happened in the span of a day???

That moment when I'm enjoying myself then remember Maki was the only person who survived to chapter five who gave two shits about Kiibo, Even when it didn't apply to her or the group as a whole
