Opinion: dancing scenes trigger my "doomed couple" senses

alternatively: writers using dancing as an engine to throttle the doomed storyline full speed to make sure the knife cuts through us clean. Note: Also used as an allegory for queer love when they cant just go "these bitches gay"

Example 1: Powder and Ekko

Example 2: Shion and Nezumi

Example 3: Ride your wave

Example 5: Violet Evergarden. not a tragedy but purposeful queer undertones

Some mentions that have no dance but same energy:

Banana fish

Eiji teaching Ash Japanese they do something "normal", something that they would be doing if the world was all well and safe, the feeling of "we could be dancing in an alternate universe, instead of fighting for our lives", and this translates over the same sad way

Unbelievable space love

What a moment 🤩

Though I lost this picture of ABJ. I ended up calling him Moonshine for no reason other than I find it a pretty word.

gonna need another week or two for the next chapter of ABJ -- between a friend's wonderful bachelorette weekend, an orchestra concert, work, and getting engaged 💍💍💍, I was really counting on getting a lot of writing done this weekend only to be thwarted by rainy, cloudy weather that makes me immobile and sleepy 🫠 SORRY Y'ALL, just want to make sure I'm giving myself the time I need to write the story I want to tell you

here's a little preview in the meanwhile ❤️ I hope everyone is having a wonderful start to September (and I hope the weather is cooler wherever you are bc this 90+ degree heat in NYC is killing meeeeee)

There's an odd baton-shaped thing tucked into a corner of the locker that catches your eye. It tickles something in your memory, even though you've never seen anything like it.  It's simple-looking, and prettier for it. Nearly a foot long, black with thick gray stripes raised over its surface – probably an artful way of making it easier to grip. One end sports a small arc of metal jutting out perpendicularly to the rest of the contraption. The business end, you reason. You don't remember taking ahold of it, but it's in your hand now. Your thumb traces bands of cold metal. It's heavier than you expected. This thing could definitely do some damage, if you swung it at someone's– "Don't." His voice is low, commanding, and entirely too close.
