#best story book ever

[roseworth]

i think theres this idea in the general public that the "best" fanfic gets turned into real books like 50 shades of grey. but the truth is that the best fanfic can never be published as an actual book because its intricately woven into the canon material so its inseparable even if you change the names

people in tags keep being like "ok wtf is animorphs actually about" so here. here you go. animorphs is what you get when you take a standard "kids save the world while balancing school, family, love, and life!" action-adventure plot from any pre-teen series, then pick up an accompanying video essay reddit thread tumblr post which goes "hang on, but have we ever actually considered how traumatic and strenuous and deeply fucking impossible this situation would be to manage if they were real kids? wouldn't it be compelling and haunting to interrogate what this would actually mean for this team of child soldiers?" and inject all of that directly into this scholastic serial from the 90s with the funny animal covers. i hope this helps. they are free online.

this is where the whole story began :3

I think I'm going to run two stories in parallel (Phillip's childhood with Caleb and Evelyn and the main story with Hamayun and Luz) because at the intersection of these two stories there is one key point that greatly influences the character of Hamayun and explains his difference from canon Belos

i love looking at hot takes and realizing that some outsiders fans don’t realize that fandom is something fun. nothing is truly that serious at the end of the day.

sometimes the ghost of kelley puckett (he is still alive) haunts me. does he know. does he even know. he’s so detached from the comics community and he’s such a private guy (I RESPECT THAT WHOLEHEARTEDLY) that i really and truly do not know if this man knows how much cassandra cain means to us. does he know batgirl 2000 is heralded as the bible of dc solo books, as a lot of people’s favorite comic ever written. does he know how much we love cass. how we write essays over her character and how amazing she is and how she changed our lives. does he know how adored his writing is. does he know he wrote the best comics character introduction of all time. does he even. know.

He didn't so much hear Armand come in as he felt Armand come in. Like a moment of nullity moving through the room, a presence that was not a presence. A ghost.

“Daniel...” Armand sat down on the bed, his weight depressing the mattress lightly.

“No...go away.” Daniel tried to turn away but he was sweating and shivering, too cold, too hot.

“It's all right, Daniel. I'm here.” Armand shifted, bringing his legs up and lying down beside Daniel, moving into Daniel's arms. “I'm here.”

“You feel good.” Daniel pressed his cheek against Armand's cool forehead, sighing. He wrapped his arms tight around Armand and it was as though he could feel the heat melt away from him, soaking into Armand.

“My poor Daniel.” Armand stroked Daniel's pale hair. Daniel had only the faintest roughness of stubble clinging to his jaw, and his mussed hair had been cut and clipped in a slick modern style that suited him. Even his ruined clothes were new. That man had taken good care of him.

Daniel shifted, so he could move closer to Armand, so he could press his entire body against Armand. The fever was burning up inside Daniel, and Armand felt the twinge of that old fear, the fear of sickness and the death it brought. So often over the years he had seen Daniel shrug off coughs and chills that it had made him wonder at the strength of these modern mortals.

Death. His fingers brushed through Daniel's hair and Daniel sighed, turning so Armand's hand moved against his cheek. Just hiding under the skin, just beyond the bones. He wondered if he pressed his ear to Daniel's chest, if he could hear the little cells inside of him slowly dying, bursting and floating away.

“I won't let you.” Armand kissed his eyelids, speaking so softly that it was more for his own sake than Daniel's. “Not right now.” And he made that little cut on his throat and guided Daniel to to it. Daniel's dry lips moved against him, at first sluggish, but then he caught the taste of it and his mouth moved hungry.

the thing that makes me so insane about ggy is that most fnaf books always have one takeaway you're supposed to get by the end of the story that's important and you disregard everything else, like out of stock with plushtrap and dittophobia with how the nightmares work, and usually the everything else actually does have some crazy thing that you dont mind disregarding just bc it's not that good and feels strange paired with whatever the takeaway is

but with ggy, even tho it has the same formula with Gregory being patient 46 being the reveal (and also just the ggy info anyway) and everything else can be disregarded, you dont WANT to because the book is just that good. every single thing they put in ggy served Rabs story somehow and made it so much better. it was so interesting. it was written better than youd expect any fnaf 20k word 60 page short story to be.

the main character is tunnel visioned and still ends up dead despite the narritave trying to save him. he has an obsession with solving mysteries and meets the most mysterious character in the world, ggy, and is driven to his death trying to solve him. his story works perfectly with ggy as a character and they're even literal foils of eachother. the book builds up tony as being a smart investigator then rips that down at the end when it shows just how smart and better rab is than tony. the very nature of rab going to school and having friends isnt even far fetched at all and is very possible

every single thing this book provides for what's supposed to be its takeaway actually makes it better and you want to remember everything about it becuase its it's own story in itself it's that good

I've been thinking about how to push Hornblower to his breaking point recently and I think the best way to do it would be to put his compassion and his duty in conflict in a way where he could either be a good person and put his naval career in jeopardy, or be a tyrant but maintain his position. I think that these often come into conflict in the narrative, but he always finds some sort of loophole and manages to worm through without having to sacrifice either ideal. I think that it would be really fun to push him into a corner and make him choose, though. I can see both scenarios leading to interesting results.
