DAY 4: DRAMA - Put on your prettiest face for the masses!

i can't with all these "the show is highlighting tommy's jealousy, they're planting seeds that it will cause problems" takes like bffr. he mentioned being envious over the 118's dynamic twice, sure, but in what world (literally how?) would that cause a relationship problem? do yall expect him to be in cahoots with gerrard behind their back and murder buck to take over his life or something?? like even with the hyperbole aside, i genuinely cannot see how they can turn this into relationship drama without going against everything they showed us with tommy so far

Every bookshop I went to in New York!

📍The Strand

📍Books Are Magic (both locations)

📍The Ripped Bodice

📍The Drama Book Shop

📍powerHouse books

📍Albertine

I only realised when I had already left NYC that there are several Shakespeare & co there, so I went to none of them...

In Boston I did go to Trident and Newbury Comics, but either it was raining or I was in a hurry, so I didn't take any pictures. I didn't have time to go to Papercuts, like someone suggested when I asked though, which is a shame

But here's a bonus bookstore I went to in Wellesley, where I was staying:

ok im just going to say it and yeah its a little negative and no im not saying its "over" but

the handshake thing is a little insulting

like. purposefully so.

when you know there's a card with: "Nandor + Guillermo Kiss?" pinned in the writer's room and you know they expect some people would be anticipating something more emotionally substantial than one of the most commical of masculine handshakes...

and instead of even a hug

you kno, that thing they've been setting us up for a cathartic resolution after 6 seasons of rejection since the very begining...

...we got a handshake (yes, i get the parallel from Nandor’s firing, when they werent able to have even a basic handshake and now they're showing how strong they are together and honestly it only makes me feel a tiny bit better)

like, im not saying its never going to happen since we still have an episode left

but im not going to act as if the damn thing is nearly as emotionally fullfilling as the hug we desperate need

James who is a successful author and Regulus who is an expert in some very niche field and James' newest book happens to make references to said niche field. Only James got it wrong and Regulus absolutely drags him on social media for it, founds some kind of James Potter hate club and insists the entire book is bad because what kind of author doesn't even do proper research

[daftpatience]

mini pet peeve but I hate when people r like "this fandom is too toxic" and it's clear that they're just fighting with a handful of people about some personal stuff. bro that's not the fandom that is 3-7 guys you don't like

i might be shot but tbh i think fiction podcasts have an issue with racial representation

I guess I'm glad the Reel Drama dolls are getting a restock. They needed it so bad. I had thought it weird that Cleo was getting one after how bad the first release went, but this makes a lot more sense. (They should release a Ghoulia too...omg the bright red with the grayscale, and her poster would slayyyyyy)

That being said, I still really wish they would release the posters separately. I don't want all the dolls, but I do really want all the posters.

"Angry robin" "violent robin" "misbehaving robin" shut up and accept my alternative; spunky Robin. Determined and head strong, can out-stubborn the Batman, has a strong moral-backbone and does what he thinks is right regardless of what anybody else says, Robin. Jason who was sassy and quippy and made crude jokes with a smile on his face. Jason who hid in Bruce's cape and whispered gossip to him. Jason who, if Bruce refused him something, could keep bothering endlessly until Bruce caved. And also dramatic Jason. If Bruce tells him no, it becomes a whole theatrical show; a monologue, a narration, embellishments, and falling onto the floor in his grief upon the fact his cruel father has denied him once again.

(Jason who has suffered through abuse and homelessness and poverty and starvation, who is the Fight out of Fight or Flight, who's built up defenses and walls and when pushed and triggered responds with the thing that's always protected him; anger. He's sweet and kind and funny, and when he sees a pimp hitting a prostitute he gets furious and responds with violence.)
