Replaying Endless Summer in 2024

Sometimes having a freaking bad memory is worth it. I'm replaying Endless Summer like it's the first time, thrilled with every new discover, cuz I can't remember shit. I'm also doing everything different. I chose to save Raj but let Grace be captured because she looks so cute with the new look. And it's just so funny to me, because it's basically:

MC: We can't let Raj behind, period. *Saves Raj*

Aleister: What about Grace?

MC: Ain't nobody got the time for that.

Aleister: :(

The Catalysts are settling down on La Huerta, ready to face a future very different to those they’d had planned.

Grace definitely has her own character arc that gets shafted (the anger that’s fueled by the tense relationship with her mom), so I’d argue against the idea that a Black female character exists only to be the love interest of a white male character. Cause it’s not like the parts of her personality or actions that aren’t not linked to her romance to Aleister (which are a LOT) go away just because PB decided to stop exploring them to the conclusion she deserved.

In that vein, axing her from the narrative and Raj could be a dangerous choice, since they are two of our central characters of color who are not love interests and whose roles are more emotion-driven than action-driven. Those type of characters are often seen as being less worthy/important in narratives across fandoms due to many biases, which I’m not saying is your reasoning! It’d just be something to consider, especially when Mike is going to remain rather than either of them.

Diego’s role I’d argue is massively central to ES’s narrative too, but like Raj, he is mostly the heart to the other’s head/body. The thing about ES is that even though it’s very much an island action mystery adventure, one of the most important facets of the story is the relationships you build with and between the other characters. Grace is able to crack Aleister’s armor because he already has an attraction to her that’s based on respect for her brilliant mind; though someone else in the cast could of course break through with time and effort, no one else can serve that role the same way Grace can.

I could go on further about Raj and Diego as well, but ultimately it’s your story, so this is 100% not meant to be a mandate or even a condemnation! Just a bit of a reminder of how the way PB has treated these characters of colors in comparison to the white/lighter characters is racist in origin, so it’s something to consider to make sure our narrative choices don’t accidentally perpetuate the same.

i've realised i'm gonna have to axe some characters from my story because they have zero reason to be there but it still hurts.

Any post I make about Endless Summer has a 90% chance of it just being “I love X character.” In this case, it’s I love Raj.

ENDLESS SUMMER CONCEPT BOOK SNIPPET 2

Here's another snippet for the book I'm writing. This is a draft of the opening. It's nowhere near finished but I wanted to share what I wrote. Feel free to provide some feedback about the description given here. It's a scene containing Lo's (MC) first vision. All the characters are here for now but it may not stay that way and I will be sharing more of these <3

FIRST VISION

Everything was silent. Unusually silent. Lo couldn’t even hear the whistles in the wind or her footsteps on the path. A path her body was forcing her to follow, while her mind seemed ready to escape. It was as though time had stopped all around her, as she was nearing a destination. No movements in the typically tantalising trees. No sign of wildlife; instead, everything was hibernating. 

  An unfamiliar kind of night had dawned. In fact, it was an entire universe. As Lo peered upwards, stars hadn’t left any part of the sky untouched. Sprinkled everywhere, as a fluorescent full moon stood proudly centred in the midst of it all. She had never seen a sky so full, never in the city. Despite everything else being frozen, the night still carried its character.

  Peace may have been exerting from the space above her but an eeriness creeped up her spine, as she continued to wander towards something unknown. In front of her looked like nothing. The frightening part was it being nothing. Whatever had warped her here wasn’t prepared to give her any answers. Even as she closed the distance between her and the darkness, it was still as pitch-black as the sky back home. In reality, she wanted to stop but her body wouldn’t allow her to. 

  Finally, Lo reached the dust. At this point, her mind was enraged, fighting to get away from whatever lurked beyond. Again, her body ignored it all and dragged her into the gloom. For a couple seconds, there was nothing - not even a sign that she was still moving. Then the mist cleared and Lo could feel her feet on the ground again. Her mind had paused its bitterness, going into complete shutdown.

  As her vision focused, she found herself in a foggy forest, an ominous air surrounding her. For the first time, control of her body returned to her consciousness but it was done commanding her to run. Curiosity had already taken over at this point, and was in full effect. Before her stood 11 graves, memorialised with handmade wooden crosses and engraved with names she mostly recognised. All were completed with what appeared to be freshly dug holes and all but one was empty. With a lost expression, she analysed each and every one.

  Quinn Kelly. Estela Montoya. Sean Gayle. Grace Hall. Aleister Reed. Michelle Nguyen. Raj Bhandarkar. Diego Soto. Craig Hsiao. Zahra Namazi. 

  All of these names, Lo recognised. Seeing all of her old friends’ fates laid out like they were nothing but cattle waiting to be slaughtered. Then, her eyes scanned the final grave, the only one with a fate already sealed. Jake Mckenzie, it read. Despite this being a name she was unfamiliar with, tears threatened to pour just from the sight of this particular resting place. Defeated, she hung her head, an urge to mourn welling up within her. Then, she noticed something that definitely wasn’t there before, even when she was wandering.

  Dog tags clung to her thin neck, swaying despite time still feeling stuck. Overcome by a breakdown, Lo grabbed hold of them, desperate to understand the meaning of them. Releasing a sharp exhale, she lifted her head and all her tears had suddenly dried. One last look at the sky revealed that one specific constellation was outshining all the others. 

  Andromeda.
