I have realized that the perfect form of media must have a delicate balance between absolutely heart wrenching pure emotional devastation and the most ridiculous nonsense you have ever seen in your whole life

[The Road Trip Thread]

-----

Woop woop new trend! (i hope)

I've never started a trend or done an event like this before, however, I do want to do my best in hosting something fun for the community. So, if you have any questions. leave them in tags or replies and I will try to answer them as best as i can!

And, much like what narry says, you are not required to participate! if you miss a day, or an event, or don't have the motivation to do anything up ahead, then thats fine too! This is just meant to be something nice and fun to do. Plus a way to celebrate vacations and road trips bc i love those kinda things and we get to give our tsp goobers a little break, as a treat ksjdhfkjsdfh

really hope to see some people participate, even if its just for one prompt :3

see you all when the itinerary drops! and tysm to everyone in the original post brainstorming this idea that showed an interest in doing this!

UPDATE: PROMPT LIST/ITINERARY DROPPED RAHH

“Ciao Ciao Sete” or The Third, Secret T-Shirt of 2004

so, a while ago I’ve stumbled upon this tidbit in some article:

and my first reaction was “WAIT WHATTTT?!?? CIAO CIAO SETE?? Another tshirt?!?!?” So, I went googling to find out more but found no articles mentioning it or any photos. And I thought that that was gonna be it but then I found this thread on a GERMAN motorsports forum….. [autotranslated from german obv]

so, people back in the day saw it and were discussing the tshirt on forums and even posted the pics!! and more info on when and where vale wore it - post valencia at yamaha party! but tragically those were not preserved because the original forum thread was from 2004……

at which point I gave up on ever finding the photos but then, absolutely randomly, while scrolling a french vale fan blog (the op of it would have loved tumblr I’m sure) I found it!!!!

‘CIAO CIAO SETE’ TSHIRT (REAL, CONFIRMED)

so, vale wore this t-shirt at some yamaha party either post phillip island or post valencia! and it indeed does have a neck bottle there! because sete does mean “thirst” in italian, so yep playing on that. but lmao it was very obviously a dig at Sete!

there we have it!

#and just to put it in context: qatar was on october 2 and valencia was october 31…he did all this over the course of less than a MONTH 😭😭😭#my fave reply on that thread was a person who went “wow they must have been really good friends if vale reacted like this I get him’😭#vr46 #valentino rossi #motogp #sg15 #sete gibernau #forum adventures

I was initially clipping this to capture the overwhelmingly accurate, absolutely devastating hilarity of "you went for realistic, and sadly, you nailed it". And then just kept recording because I really fucking love the discussion about how to balance the line between like:

You are trying to tell a story that feels good and gives you the kind of lift you might be looking for in an explicitly fantasy story,

vs

How to ensure it still feels grounded and rewarding in a way where you can "bring this good feeling back to earth" at the end.

Like they're talking about TTRPG's but they clearly make parallels to other forms of storytelling/worldbuilding mediums, like movies, and. like. Yeah. Yeah.

Like the framing of "you really recreated the feeling of powerlessness..." and wanting the fantasy element to manifest in there being the clearer, straightforward ways to solve complex issues, vs trying to ensure that you can have a victory and it feels feasible and substantial and applicable in some way, and has something you can take out of the fantasy world and hold with you back on "terra firma".

Its tricky! Its a tricky thing to balance, and I don't think there's a single "right" answer nor should there be because it depends. It depends on the story, and the intent, and the setting, and the medium, and etc. Big fan of this framework to explain it.

#dropout #zac oyama #adventuring academy #brennan lee mulligan #reaaaally like- like not even the specific takes as much as the framing of this. its part of why i think sometimes discussions about #good or bad or happy or sad or realistic endings miss the point a bit for me.#like whether an ending is 'good' or 'bad' or 'happy' or 'sad' or 'realistic' are often distinct discussions along w/ being deeply subjectiv #not to say that they're all COMPLETELY disjoint but assuming one EQUALS any of the others often flattens the discussion. to its detriment.#narrative meta #(?)#not cr #look ill be real im thinking about (among other things) some of the c2 ending discourse. not in a 'i cant see why people were unhappy' way #bc I totally understand why and I did have my own gripes. but also.#just like. man. some of those discussions were. happening in the same spheres and threads and all talking totally diff things. and migh #have really benefitted from this framing #anyway I looove adventuring academy. the Lou and aabria adventuring parties are ones I relisten to regularly. connie/jasmine's ones r also #vvvv good. I also typically love contested roll for the absurdity but in this case the specific discussion spawned is so good I don't even #mind the trade of the hilarity #anyway sorry. off my soapbox now. i just loved this discussion

Hey remember when I said that this was the most frustrating thing about being a Helluva Boss enjoyer?

Yeah I was wrong.

The most frustrating thing about being a Helluva Boss enjoyer is explicitly stating multiple times that I like show and then get called an anti and homophobic and media illiterate when I complain about the direction it has taken.

I LIKE the comedy

I LIKE the animation and artstyle

I LIKE the more serious plotlines like the government agents plot and the Cherubs plot

I LIKE the themes of friendship and found family

I even like most of the songs!

And ofc the voice cast slays every time

But just because your show has angst and tears and drama and sad music doesn't automatically make it "good".

Just because your characters are queer doesn't automatically make them good or well written characters

This fandom is so frustrating to deal with when you want to express your more nuanced takes of it

This is probably gonna be the last post I make about this subject and about Helluva Boss in general, this shit is too stupid to deal with

#still cant get over how i got called an anti and homophobic and media illiterate for saying:#'damn i wish the comedy show written by comedians had more comedy in it'#you can absolutely 100% write a comedy show with a more serious plot thread running through the whole thing #some of the most memorable and popular animated shows are just that #you got Gravity Falls The Owl House the Tales of Arcadia trilogy She-Ra ATLA etc....#fuck it even the first few seasons of Voltron for crying out loud #but the problem im having with HB is that its not a comedy with a serious plot thread anymore #its all drama all tears all angst with the occasional joke thrown in here and there #most of the shows I mentioned start off with episodic comedic adventures with hints towards the more serious stuff here and there #but the Stolitz drama started in the FIRST EPISODE #(in my opinion) the best eps of s1 are the ones that have little to nothing to do with Stolitz when we're given time to get to know the team #because we got to have FUN first we got to see the team dynamic in action #if the “serious plot thread” in HB was Blitz's relationships why didnt he apologize to Moxie and Millie in Apology Tour? or Loona?#or his FUCKING SISTER??????#the government agents and the Cherubs plotline makes x100 more sense as a serious plot thread for the premise of the series anyway #i could go on and on about this but I wont cause Im tired of thinking about this #this is stupid #im gonna ENJOY HB when I can #but that doesn't mean that there arent SERIOUS narrative issues with the series #and if you enjoy Stolitz good for you #peace and love #but its not something I can overlook #helluva boss #helluva boss critical #helluva boss criticism #helluva boss critique

[Road Trip Thread p1]

The whole gang is here!!! >:DDDDDD (my laptop crashed as i tried to render and share this on discord ;-; ksjdfh)

[OG Thread post for context]

[For a non blurred version of this, as well as little snippets of conversation i came up with while drawing, check under the cut!]

Narrator and Oz: "Alright, i got the itinerary ready to send for the 27th." "Hmm... An aquarium? What aquarium are we going to?" "I found the biggest, most coolest one that's on the road map!" "How could we even afford to bring everyone here?" "The swimming pools, duh. Turns out they cost a good thousand dollars so.... why not go all out?"

Stanley and Lynne: "WOOO! ROAD TRIP~" "Lynne, I appreciate your excitement but please can you get off the luggage I can't pull the both of you to the bus."

Timekeeper, just on his own: "Heh. Suns out.... Suns out, the sun sure is out. I don't understand that phrase."

Mariella and Curator: "Hey curator, I got a little surprise for you! I know this is the first event outside of the parable for most of us, so to celebrate I got us some flowers!"
