i think mostly we as a culture need to stop pretending media is for us and instead recognize that it's for the people making it. "the show didn't do the thing I wanted it to" is so not the point. did it do what the people making it wanted it to do? did it tell the story they were trying to tell? than it was successful. if that doesn't align with what you wanted to happen, don't get up in arms about it. don't badmouth the creators and throw a tantrum. that's what fan works are for. the text is the text, and it told the story it was telling. you wouldn't be like "ugh shakespeare is insane for act v btw like there was no reason for juliet to kill herself she should've just waited and then her and romeo could have been together wtf this ruined the whole play" like no!!! the themes were there the set-up was there the foreshadowing was there shakespeare did what he intended to. just because it wasn't a happy ending and just because you thought it should've went differently doesn't mean it was bad. read a fic where juliet lives and move on.
#this is about ghosts but honestly fandom in general#stop pretending the creators of things owe you certain story lines. they're making it not you#i explained it like this to my sister:#imagine you're reading a book and there are sort of hints and scenes that you take to interpret a character as gay#you cite quotes and talk about the themes and the impact of your interpretation#and then at the end of the book the character comes out as asexual.#and then a lot of those scenes and quotes that you were using as evidence for your interpretation-#now they could be construed to have been pointing towards them being ace all along#just because it wasnt the end you fabricated in your head based on your understanding of the hints#doesn't mean it wasnt always the writers plan from the beginning.#AND it doesnt mean you can't keep imagining a world where they're gay instead#it just means that the writer was leaving those clues to point you towards the ending#and you interpreted the clues differently#bbc ghosts#ghosts spoilers#bc like. if last resort was the ending#you could 'read' the whole series with the understanding that they weren't going to leave the house#and the foreshadowing would add up#but now with the special. you can go back and 'read' the series with the understanding that they leave#and it still all adds up. the foreshadowing was there it just meant something different than you thought.#stories have beginnings middles and ends#you predetermined the ending while still in the middle and got mad when you weren't right.#does that make sense?

sometimes i do feel for the adaptation team of tged when it comes to the relationship between alicia and lloyd because like. they were fighting a losing battle since the very beginning.
either they respected the source material and got crazy people (me) pointing out that the protagonist has more chemistry and relationship build up with his best friend than he does with his supposed romantic interest.
or they change it in the adaptation to make alloyd have more interactions and build up and get crazy people (me) upset and questioning why they're omitting or changing scenes that make lloyd and javier's relationship deeper in the novel to make them seem less close than they truly are.
there's just no winning for them because this is something that is inextricable from the source material
in the novel lloyd and javier's relationship is the core of the plot. whatever they have going on is the heart of the entire thing. and either you accept that and the fact that there's bound to be people who will see it as something romantic and be disgruntled when lloyd is unceremoniously married off to someone he barely knew and did not want to marry for 90% of the novel. or you change it and completely destroy the core of the plot, ruining what's probably the best part of the story.
it's an impossible choice,,,, if you're someone who can't stand the idea of having a protagonist who's a little fruity with his best friend that is lmao
#i talk a lot <3#tged#the greatest estate developer#alloyd critical#sorry i just. i hate heteronormativity. it makes everything so much worse for everyone#amatonormativity in general just sours everything it touches and makes everyone actually paying attention to the themes and narrative upset#normally i'm all about slash and queer relationships#but tged is the one story i am absolutely certain would've benefited more from allowing the protagonist to remain single and happy#if lloyd had been allowed to get his wish and live a happy and peaceful life in the place he worked so hard to protect#with the people he loved so much he was willing to risk everything to remain at their side and gave his life to keep alive#but noooo. forced straight narrative instead 🙄

I love all the little stars you have on your art they fit in so well no matter the vibe of the drawing and I love how it’s almost a little trademark of your work
:)
ajfjskfjd thank you so much!!!! it really feels like a piece isn’t complete without a star or two or five. idk how it really started but now i’m completely obsessed with them… if that’s a trademark of my work then i’ll take it
#asks#2pplonhere#each star is like its own thing but i’ve found they keep going back to certain themes#sometimes it’s like indicative of life sometimes it means something dangerous#sometimes it’s just decorative flourish! a little pizazz if you will#sometimes it’s connection sometimes it’s realization sometimes its uhhhhhhhhh an actual star hahaha

[writing a fic] [stops] [wait-a-minute.png] ....aw hell. i've made trent demi again
#i keep making him and ted sooooo demi coded#trent crimm#tedependent#also i think there's just a lot of overlap with the general experience of growing up queer#and therefore being 'late' to normal romance/sex/certain socialization(?)#versus being demi (which is also queer obvs but i mean like the overlap between queer allosexual experiences versus demi/ace/aro ones) and#either never getting there or also being late but for a different reason#so when i explore queerness and queer themes i tend to delve there since that's. uh. hello hi hi hello hi#gertspeak

carl subplot for how certain the journey that was cut for time: carl was planning to propose but the girl he's seeing admits that she never intended to marry him, as his partial blindness would make it hard for him to find work and support her. so he goes west and explores the canadian wilderness to get over her and find himself. publishes some travelogues and guides to the various flora and fauna of canada and becomes a respected nature writer. eventually receives a proposal from a woman who thinks she only has a year left to live and they fall in love for real all while she's unaware that he is secretly her favorite author, john fost-
#kind of joking but not really#i do rly enjoy fic that incorporates themes and character arcs from an author's other work!#but yeah trying to keep the fic fairly focused and not sprawl off into 80 different directions as i am wont to do so cut most of this#sorry carl i am writing a fic that centers on you soon though 👀#anne of green gables#fic ramblings#how certain the journey#carl meredith

I’m enamored by Akira and Maya’s existence as top stars. The moniker of ‘top star’ looms over the whole cast, but they are truly paragons of the ideal (and maybe Judy, but that should be saved for El Dorado).
For both of them their existence as top stars defines them, and serves as their greatest strength and weakness. It’s in that dissonance that I think revstar is just so incredible.
It is simultaneously rejecting the harmful ideas of the auditions and embracing the love for theatre a top star contains.
Maya and Akira have been through a lot. They are acutely aware of the demands being a top star brings, but they still choose to stand there and in doing so they draw strength from it.
While the two of them are *far* from being flawless characters (which revstar makes abundantly clear) they have a certain impact to them from being the representatives of such a system. Maya being the one to crush Karen in the Revue of Pride, or Maya being the first one to start performing Revue No Title is significant.
Standing at the top has cost her greatly, it’s meant losing friends, endless hard rehearsal, and isolation. Yet she continues to strive for it. It’s not just ego (though certainly that plays a role), but a deep pride and passion that Carrie’s her. The pride in contrast to Karen’s arrogance in the Revue of Pride.
But no moment demonstrates this quite as well as Edel Delight and Revue Edel. Akira’s whole mentality to the point that it is her revue introduction is to become a perfect, immortal gem through her performance. To become pure platinum and wholly embody royalty. She is scarred from Fumi’s absence, is selfish, a bit of a stage crazy dolt, and incredibly greedy. Throughout Edel Delight she spends the play shirking her duties, being arrogant and dismissive. But when the time comes she will still fight the rest of the cast if need be and emerge victorious.
She will prove herself to be a true Edel.
I just really love characters that represent and embody a certain ideology, and with how rich revue starlight is in its themes e it’s endlessly fascinating for me to think about.
I think it’s also really interesting to think about the ‘failed top stars’ like Koharu, Stella, or even Fumi. But oh goodness I could keep going for such a long time…
Regardless I really like Akira and Maya as characters, but don’t talk about them enough, so yeah here’s some scrambled thoughts
#revue starlight#maya tendo#akira yukishiro#only three things in life are certain death taxes and that I’ll keep rambling about the same themes in different words#i just think theyre neat

I want vampires who are a little spooky. They walk the line between Here and There, they know of the Veil, they know the magic of Names and the Threshold, and if they live for long enough, they may even learn what the stars speak of.
'oh, so you want Fae, not vampires-'
No, because I still want that Earthly need for life. They must feed from living beings, as we all feed from living beings. They want blood and flesh and heat and life. They are as much man and beast as we all are, almost TOO alive sometimes.
'oh, so then you just want werewolves-'
NO, because they are not the struggle between Man and Beast, vampires are the midpoint between our humanity and ALL our darkest desires. They are dancing to the song of the darkness, they are knowing the taste of your fellow man in many ways, they are looking into the void and finding it unassailably beautiful.
'oh, so you ACTUALLY want-'
NO. I KNOW WHAT I WANT. AND IT'S SPOOKY, OLD-MAGICY, NON-ROTTING CORPSE VAMPIRES.
#the lost boys#vtm#vampires#just in general#this is not directed at any one particular person but I do see the sentiment of 'if you write -insert supernatural being- like so'#'then you should just write -insert other supernatural being- because you just want -theme- and it doesn't FIT -first supernatural being-'#NO#I KNOW WHAT I WANT#AND I WILL WRITE THAT#vampires represent certain thematic niches yes#but I can also expand that to fit the extra stuff I want while also keeping what makes them vampires to begin with

CTDE!zee has an era where she abandons her entire life and moves to a new town and goes abysmally downhill for a few years until diana turns up and is like HIIII WE'RE ALL VERY WORRIED ABOUT YOU SWEETIE ... and zee gets to be like i left the force years ago diana......im retiredNJHBG
their reunion here is like 4-5 years or so before CTDE proper. if you ever see me draw a zee this crunchy you know that's her temporarily retired era 😭
it leads into the "ladies. what is going on here" wondermagic era but more importantly she IS doing better now
#i keep doing the stupid shirt gag its funny to ME#CTDE#zatanna#wonder woman#ive really put this character in my big blender and just gone to town on her. all is in the name of story-wide themes...#I Am Looking For A Certain Theme And If I Don't Find It. I Will Create It

the thing with doctor who i think is that it gets better the more you know. maybe this is true of all writing but i only know doctor who so we'll focus on that. but i think it gets better the more you know this is why my fic is not very good. i dont know many things. i think if you have a background in like, just any field you can use you can make your doctor who stories more interesting. like linguistics maths physics and music are things that come to mind for me that i would like to know to make my doctor who stories more interesting but i think it can work with, like, almost anything. biology stuff also works well adds a lot. sociology stuff history. if you know how to sew really well or youve worked in meat factories. just, if you have deep knowledge about something this will enrich your doctor who stories (again, might be true for literally every writing)
but also things you can know that are just lived and not books. like i said with that post about different countries' doctor whos, every country would bring its own history and values and perspective to the stories. but also like for example the class stuff or the queer stuff you see with rtds stories like anything a writer Knows will make their stories more interesting
and thats why doctor who could literally be so good If They Diversified Their Fucking Staff. in every sense of the word. you need disabled people, trans people, racialised people, people with different religions but you need people who know other things than writing too! which i get is difficult because theyre mostly working in their fields and not writing but like there are writers who are not or have not only ever just been writers. or just get writers with some weird fucking hobbies!
even in the most basic way even if you keep your entire show white christian able-bodied man, if you have more of those you will have better stories. it will still suck! but like, less than if you only have 1 guy writing right? thats not a novel concept artists know this writers know this thats why they work together. and i get that making tv is very complex and theres a lot of interests and a lot of choices being made that arent even to do with the stories but i find it so frustrating to think about how good doctor who could be if they let other people in to put their knowledge and their perspective in the stories
#and not just in the writing but in Every Department Obviously#i just dotn know how television is made so i dont know. like. what those are#the secret good disabled trans decolonialist doctor who that lives in my head man#like you know that feeling when an artist like...........Gets a certain theme or smth#like Knows what to do with it bc they have a certain own experience or knowledge#like when an artist truly fucking knows what theyre doing#you know that feeling? when youre like this SAYS something abt the theme/trope/idea/whatevs#you know?#doctor who is so full of unused potential#i feel like we're spinning our wheels a little bit#and maybe others feel that too bc showrunners keep being like WE NEED NEW SHOCK BIG NEW#but like. youre not gonna get that with the same old perspectives!#for truly new good refreshing you need some new good refreshing people on the mic#anyway. just. frustrates me#10 to the master but it's me to doctor who the show: you could be so much more!#like 13 and 15 are fun right? with the idk new outfit and the rwandan proverb on the sonic. fucks. but#to use rtds own words. ridiculous craven feeble gesture also a little bit. i want like. substantially good stories#i want to feel like the writer knows what theyre talking about you know?#you know that feeling#anyway#you get what im saying#the secret good doctor who that lives in my head man#except. it doesnt live in my head. bc it lives in many otherp eoples head. by definition#but sometimes i read like fic by friends who fucking Know things and im like damn#damn!!!!! doctor who could be so much better!!!!!!#i also think when youre a writer whos only a writer theres the risk of chasing your own tail a bit#in that th elonger youre a writer the more you only start writing about writing bc thats what you Know#i think thats a risk#also not a novel concept pretty sure professional writers are aware of that one gfhkjghgjg theyre not stupid

Finally got around to organizing and sorting my Shadowheart playlist so it flows nicely <3
#sharing in case. anyone is looking for songs for their own shad playlists 👉👈#i tried to keep it relatively themed to the kind of music I think she might enjoy? but obvi i have my own biases and faves sfkjhfkjsf#shadowheart#baldur's gate#bg3#baldur's gate 3#OH also like. every song on here is here for a reason. like most of them are selected for their lyrics being very Shadowheart to me#obvi some of them more so than others and some are just like. the lyrics fit a certain Vibe like religious trauma or loneliness or w/e but#tldr i overthought this. ive been cooking this since the game came out. being extremely normal and not insane about her.#my post#Spotify#my playlists

This song is the only thing keeping me going I do not play about mr showtime 😞 nothing ruined me (made my life better) the way this song did

Unfortunately i had gotten t1k (t571) on ensekai for phoenix and am still#bitter about it. Emu and nene came home but the ugly blonde didnt. This is why we’re having problems tsukasa#i have a mr showtime themed custom profile that needs to be finished aand i gotta work on my one for#tsukasa4#ill be more prepared for that one im certain of it#knocking on wood#PRAYING.#t500 would have been nice you know… unfortunately i ran out of resources.#i think the amount of time and love ive poured into making everything abt this event makes up for this though. Also this is gonna sound#obnoxious but i feel like one of the five people who actually. You know. Get the event. Like its importance which ill elaborate on in a#future post. Everybody wants to talk about this event but nobody wants to read the story#and the side stories Guysss ur missing out its so good when youre not forcing urself to think tsukasa has an ed and dont even know a single#thing abt acting yet believe one google search can prove that method acting is Absolutely Totally Going To Ruin His Life#i dont think fasting was alright it was pretty stupid but what he did doesnt make him have an ed or this or that#I do think you should be very. Very careful with method acting by the way. That can mess you up. But i dont think thats where theyll be#taking tsukasa in the future. Yes itd be nice to show the risks and get a You know be careful but its not as dark and This is gonna ruin hi#😞😨My poor baby!! As people think#omg i got sidetracked LET ME TALK ABT THE BINGO???1?1? Easily distracted ass#Uhm. Where do i begin. Nvm i dont wanna write too much more but this song truly does mean the world to me#And rella’s art is so goood my eyes are always glued to it. For some reason i keep having trouble fcing the expert chart for it on ensekai#ut was just fine on jpsekai. Frowny face. I could listen to the song all day though#Those instrumentals are popping offff i tell you#hidden circus#wonderlands x showtime#wxs#wansho#commissioned song#prsk
