Bangtan weekly report...

I wanted to do a Bangtan weekly report. Since January 15. But between real life and complete disinterest over what's been on the timeline I just haven't had the time or desire.

But, nevertheless, we press on.

I love IU's song and the MV starring Tae. He did really good. I've watched all the behind the scenes, hers and his.

The account on Instagram called @ rpwprpwprpwp (how do you pronounce that rr-pwip rr-pwip rr-pwip?) keeps posting images of Namjoon and now there are theories that the images are representative of each song from his next album. We wait(TM).

Everyday, hoping Namjoon and Tae are doing well in their assigned posts.

And hoping Jimin and Jungkook are doing all right. Thanking the universe everyday that they have each other to fall back on. I wonder if Jimin's love for snow will somewhat be tempered a little after this winter and next...

The Standing Next to You Usher remix behind the scenes videos were fun. I'm glad JK had the opportunity to work with Usher. I know the experience meant a lot to him. I miss his lip rings. He told Polyc he'd be considering a new tattoo when he was discharged. Can't wait...

I hope Yoongi is doing something he can at least consider is worthwhile. Just a tiny hint of what he's doing would be awesome but I understand if we never get that until he's discharged.

Excitedly anticipating Jin's discharge, as well as Hobi's. Jin's message yesterday was nice and now that we're about 4 months away from his discharge, I think about what might have been going through his mind at the time he recorded these messages. Hobi just graduated another bunch of new soldiers and will get some time off. Maybe we'll see him out and about on his Instagram this week.

For now, laying here, no thoughts/head empty.

I do think there's something special about the way that audio drama creators seem to love including cameos of voice actors from other popular audio dramas. Obviously, part of the reason why actors from one show might pop up in another is because the audio drama creator community is relatively small and interconnected, and also because those actors are very talented.

But there's also often such a sense that creators are having fun with these cameos. Like Greater Boston casting audio drama heavyweights Briggon Snow, Zach Valenti, and Felix Trench as famous film actors Matt Daemon, Ben Affleck, and Mark Wahlberg respectively. Or Faux and Stallion having Tom Crowley (who plays a Victorian detective in Victoriocity) pop up as Dr Watson. Or Unseen casting Beth Eyre and Felix Trench as characters who are twins. Or Arden getting Emma Sherr-Ziarko to play an actor impersonating a character played by her former Wolf 359 costar Michelle Agresti (with Michaela Swee also appearing as an actor impersonating the other main Arden lead).

In these cases, it's not just that there's a cameo, but that the cameo is given particular (often comedic) significance to those who are aware of the featured actor's other work. The vast majority of people wouldn't recognise any of these voices. But by doing these very intentional cameos, these creators show confidence that a fair chunk of their audience will know these actors and enjoy the link. There's an awareness that listeners of one audio drama are fairly likely to listen to (or at least be aware of) other fiction podcasts, even when the shows in question aren't of particularly similar genres. Recognising these cameos feels like being in on a secret. It feels like these shows are giving a little nod to listeners to say that we're part of the same club.

I truly love and am jealous of fans can write and create well written fix-its/reboots of vld which are well balanced and focus on all characters. Cause all i am capable of is coming up with half formed balls-to-the-walls ideas with two nearly unrelated scenes held together with a red string but is still guaranteed to piss off 99% of the fandom if they were canon

If this post gets at least one (1) note, I'll do something writing related for the first time in ages. Sure, it'll probably be rushed, cringey, and short, but it'll be SOMETHING new at least.
