@thejakeformerlyknownasprince I remember the MM1 adaptation and that it was pretty good, but I don't remember anything about the #6 adaptation. There are just particular lines of both Richard Sali and "Victor Trent" from the #2-based episode which stuck with me for two decades, though. I would say both exuded their characters really well in that episode. (I did once see it as an adult, twenty years past the original airing, and remember feeling the same way.)
[Starting a new post for an off-topic reply.]
Hard agree. I think the best AniTV episodes are the ones that work within the budget, even (especially) when that means a loose adaptation. And I agree about MM1 and #2's adaptations having good moments as a result.
Like, the adaptation of #6 works because it doesn't have the budget to show Temrash 114 cycling through Jake's morphs in an effort to escape — it instead has to depict psychological warfare. I love everything that ensues: Temrash laughing that "Tom" will "take one look at [Ax] and turn him over to Visser Three." Bringing up Jake's memories of Cassie, and threatening to hurt Jake if she doesn't let him go. Calling Tobias "a scavenger... a pet that sits on Rachel's arm." Calmly assuring Jake that "we break humans the way humans break horses" while showing him an image of Tom crying on the floor. It works, surprisingly well.
The MM1 episode is weakest when it's trying to adapt the book, but it does depart, to its strength — Rachel can't remember morphing, so she has to break out of shoe-lady's house the hard way. Marco points out that she's likely to be a controller, and that's why she's acting so out of character. Rachel sensibly approaches a nonprofit group called The Sharing to ask them for help, and almost gets infested before Jake saves her. Instead of the weird truck thing, she just regains her memory as soon as she morphs the first time.
Same for the #2 adaptation. I love that Rachel's motivation gets changed from "uhh, let's try something?" to a) trying to find out if the yeerks know of any technology that could get Tobias back to human shape, and b) responding to the red flags of child abuse that Melissa is throwing left and right. It helps that the controllers are all better-acted than the Animorphs — I can't tell if it's just easier to convey an alien who doesn't quite know how to human than it is to convey a human, or if it's that the actors are all trained adults. But the eps (like this, or the MM4 one) that lean into controllers being creepy are almost always better than the ones that involve lots of morphing.

so for obvious reasons, rye is not generally all that popular with most of the senior watchers. however. I think there is a certain type of younger watcher to whom he is The ultimate hot badboy icon and fantasy. (we're talking about a group of extreme indoor kid goth nerds who've barely been outside. it doesn't take a lot ot achieve bad boy status in this context and the only thing in this world that lasts forever is a bad reputation in a small insular group like the watchers.) it's SO funny because rye thinks of himself as such a disappointing fuckup of a son of the grand necropolis. and meanwhile there are novices kicking their feet and giggling as they're like
'Ingellvar is so cool. no one knows where he's from he was found down here as a baby. mysterious orphan appeal. he could be a secret dalish prince or something for all we know. (*annoyed extra nerd watcher novice voice*: umm actually the dalish don't have princes, merrivar?? read a real book sometime maybe???) he's a rebel. he doesn't care what the senior watchers think no time for politics he just gets the job done. (*small sad rye voice* I care a lot what the senior watchers think actually. a pathetic amount, in fact. it just rarely seems like it helps anything at all) I heard he graduated almost top of his class even though he spent all his time as a student partying up in the city and having a torrid affair with the son of a noble family. sometimes in his spare time he wears a cool punk leather jacket but like the fantasy version of that. he has tattoos apparently but no one's seen them for years. yuh-uh it's true too, I know someone who knows someone he dated once. they say he saw a knife fight once. like, in a bar brawl, with living people. all that, and he's even sneakily emotionally unavailable. *starry-eyed sigh* what a dreamboat'.
needless to say this only grows worse with the events of the game, after he takes out the formless one and rumours start to spread that he maybe killed a god or something too???? and this being nevarra, more importantly he's out there killing dragons with his sworn companions?? like a fucking fairytale prince but with that devil-may-care rebellious streak???? he's the safely unavailable first crush at a distance of many a young watcher. now imagine the reaction when he shows up home for the first time in a year after the war of the banners accompanied by The one true bad boy fantasy to rule them all: literally the sad brooding crown prince of the crows of antiva in leather pants who has WINGS and a dark tortured side of his nature that he has to constantly battle against for the sake of those he loves.
(the perception vs. reality situation for both of these characterizations is. so unspeakably hilarious needless to say. consider how much of the above lucanis characterization is accurate to the person he actually is and then you've basically found the level of distortion lens being applied to rye as well. is most of it technically true? sure. 'technically' is having to do a whole world of heavy lifting there tho fhdfska)
what I'm really saying here is that there is a subsection of this group that's been ferociously writing rye/lucanis rpf from the moment they were seen trotting down into the necropolis depths together (other pairings within the lighthouse gang as a whole, caught in tantalizing glimpses as they visit the necropolis, of course having their own devotees), and when this fandom subgroup eventually discover they were right it's with all the insane glee of a sixteen year old fanfic writer on wattpad (is that still where the kids are these days. idk i'm getting old folks) finding out that their dark mafia prince AU is basically true. varric might be gone but the legacy of friendfiction lives on after him. the king of thedas rpf being the shoulders of titans that young watchers are standing on to write fevered WILDLY inaccurate depictions of the private life of two of the most low-key domestic quietly devoted and undramatic people on the continent, one of them being varric's own poor little meow meow slash mentee, is something that can actually be so personal. rye does not end up terribly famous in the end considering the shit he manages to get done in this game, and he thanks his lucky stars for it. but to a tight-knit community of mourn watch fic writers he is blorbo from my apocalypse. it's all I could have wished for him.
(funniest possible outcome of all this: myrna gets so fucking tired of trying to understand what the novices are being so tittery about that she asks rye 'watcher ingellvar with the realization that this is a long shot and the admission that vorgoth and I have exhausted all other avenues of investigation: do you possess secret insight about what an 'x reader' is. and also 'ship war'. your name seems to come up in this context a surprising amount'. 9000000 points of incoming psychic damage about to hit the fan.)
#all the bellara/rye shippers devastated at rookanis reveal of course. (no basis in anything whatsoever rye and bellara? no vibes)#rye did date the spoiled youngest son of a noble house for a while in his twenties and it was Pretty Bad! not great times#*rye voice* you know I think I like this spin on 'I was a barely functioning alcoholic in an awful toxic relationship#helplessly watching my life fall apart even as I was the one actively tearing it to pieces' a lot better too#can I borrow it. my self delusions could use a fresh shine#dragon age#dragon age: the veilguard#dragon age: the veilguard spoilers#dragon age spoilers#oc: Ellaryen Ingellvar#lucanis dellamorte#rookanis#rook x lucanis#this idea came to me perfectly formed while out on a walk and I ugly laughed to myself the whole way home#again rye doesn't even feel like an oc he's just a guy who exists in thedas and his life is a farce#my only regret is that varric can't be around to laugh hysterically at this. he deserves to know what a mark he left in the world#he was many things to many people. friend. ex (level of divorce not always congruent with actual state of having been married). storyteller#occasional unwelcome tagalong. viscount of kirkwall for nearly a decade (oh yeah!). literary icon. merchant prince#friendly neighbourhood gangster and mother hen to the most contentrated group of disaster bisexuals on the planet#lover. hater. committed centrist (affectionate and derogatory). hawke's forever guy (deep queerplatonic intent)#but first foremost and always king and patron saint of the rpf writers of thedas. rest in peace bff of all time you did great

With the franchise continuing to grow in popularity, I thought I'd give a rundown for new fans of the earliest fist-fighting, bike-riding lone hero Kamen Riders that they might not be too familiar with compared to the modern shows.
Kamen Rider #1
Made with specific intentions in mind about the nature of violence in humanity, the first Kamen Rider often struggled with a distancing of sorts from his humanity that his superpowers gave him; focusing most frequently on the terrible harm he was now able to visit upon his opponents. Conceptualized as the lone hero with these powers, the bug-themed #1 didn't have a 'secondary rider' of sorts to help him out; instead being assisted most frequently by a professional officer who also acted as his liaison with the police. Another well-liked supporting cast member was an older 'uncle' figure who let the main hero stay at his shop. At the conclusion of the series, Rider 1 decided to leave Japan to journey abroad. Kamen Rider #1's show was very popular with children to the degree that, while not intended, it naturally spawned an indirect sequel series and eventually a whole slew of shows that continues to this day.
Tumblr media
Kamen Rider #2
While Kamen Rider #1 was not conceived as having any successors, events behind the scenes incited the production of a replacement hero in Kamen Rider #2 who would take over from #1 over the next year. Very similar in design and origins to his predecessor with the same bug design basis and often mixed up with him, this new Kamen Rider was a quirky jokester type of character compared to the typical 'hero' type kids could look up to that #1 was; and often confounded his supporting cast with all the strange things he'd say and do. Rather than dwell on his personal tragedy of what he'd lost, #2 as a character preferred to focus on his own personal hobbies and interests; only going out to battle the enemies when called. #2 notably marked the introduction of a teamup of multiple Kamen Riders at once, though he fought with derivations of #1's suit rather than the original. While not as well remembered as the original Kamen Rider, #2 still laid the groundwork for many elements that the franchise stays true to today.
Tumblr media
Kamen Rider V3
As the first departure from #1 and #2's basic setting and storytelling with a very different design, Kamen Rider V3 obviously had some big shoes to fill -- but almost instantly he was a hit, easily becoming one of the most popular Kamen Rider series of his era. While previously glimpsed with #2's occasional scuffles, V3 notably was the first Kamen Rider series to have fellow Kamen Riders fighting with each other; not out of misunderstanding, but out of genuine moral conflict. While some of this would be resolved, multiple Kamen Riders end up dying in this season, and arguably this rivalry is what most influences the typical Main Rider/Secondary Rider relationships to this day.
Tumblr media
Riderman
While many Riders feature their transformation belt magically appear out of nowhere, the fourth Kamen Rider notably had a more 'realistic' transformation that required the hero to physically put on his gear. Arguably weaker than many other Kamen Riders due to having a limited powerset derived from now-outdated science, Riderman in his series was characterized largely by a distrust of everyone around him due to his coloured past; naturally leading to many of the show's most memorable character conflicts and fights. This Kamen Rider has an interesting relationship with death, with the ending of the show and post-series media seemingly unable to decide if he's alive or not.
Tumblr media
Kamen Rider X
Plagued by rewrites and completely different directions in the first and second half of the show, the first Kamen Rider to constantly carry his weapon with him has nonetheless remained quite popular with fans of the era; in no small part due to the tantalizing relationship he has with a black and red rival he makes early on. While the show would eventually move on from this element, X as a character is informed by the tragedy of losing his father and the hero complex this event forced upon him.
Tumblr media
Kamen Rider Amazon
A very sharp change in direction from the more technological Riders that came before him, Amazon in many respects does not feel like part of the Kamen Rider series as much as it does an original series very much doing its own thing -- and one that has garnered its own small fanbase. Amazon featured multiple forested fights and pit the main hero against animalistic beasts rather than what you might expect from a usual Tokusatsu monster. Amazon is frequently followed around by a young boy fascinated by the new world of possibilities the hero has introduced him to, and the relationship between Amazon and this boy is one of the highlights of the series.
Tumblr media
Kamen Rider Stronger
This red rhinoceros beetle Rider is a cult favourite among fans for its infectiously confident main hero who makes speeches about the heavens as he charms his way out of just about any situation. This series brought the classic theming back in a big way, with all the main heroes being based on a different type of bug. This series may surprise modern Kamen Rider fans for Stronger only having a single upgrade form, not even having a single other one between his base form and final. Unfortunately, this series failed to be the jab-in-the-arm of popularity the producers wanted it to be; with the Super Sentai series that same year arguably overshadowing it.

7, 12, 21 for whatever fandoms pop into ur head :3!
what character did you begin to hate not because of canon but because how how the fandom acts about them?
Thiiiis one is kind of tricky because I don't really have that many characters I hate and usually not for this kind of reason. I've sometimes gotten annoyed when fandoms focus more on certain characters than the ones I specifically like, but it's never been enough to make me actually hate a character. I'm genuinely trying to wrack my brains here but I'm getting nothing. I guess the most specific I can get is having been exasperated in the past over general decepticon fans way back in the day? But I still wound up liking several individual characters, so.
the unpopular character that you actually like and why more people should like them
Rezo is the first one to pop into my mind (hi, hyperfixation...) although tbh I'd probably describe him as underrated over unpopular per se- a few people seem to seriously dislike him or seriously did dislike him back in the day, but for the most part I get the impression that people just care way more about other characters.
Which is a shame because I think he's genuinely pretty interesting, he's got a bunch of internal conflict going on that we only get tantalizing glimpses of, and he has this silly, quirky side to him that is a lot of fun. I feel like fandom mostly just glosses over him as a footnote to Zelgadis's angst, although I admit it's tricky to do much else with him while still being relatively canon compliant because he goes and dies in the first arc. RIP to a real one.
part of canon you think is overhyped
Undertale: The No Mercy Run is very well done and I can see why people went bananas over it, I went bananas over it sometimes, but digging through 5000 layers of No Mercy Run Angst in Undertale fanstuff got pretty tedious.
Slayers: The original novels probably are good, but I saw a few people talking them up as the True Best Most Objective Canon Version of the story while simultaneously talking down the later seasons of the anime for not sticking closer to the novels and that kind of reverse psychology'd me into being :\ about the novels, especially when several of the differences(1) I heard about just sounded like "edgier/more adult content." I'm afraid to read them now because I don't feel like I can properly be objective about them.
(1) Okay, I will admit it does sound like Lina and Gourry have more nuanced characterization in the novels, which does sound better.

The Evolution of Sustainable Materials in Aviation Products
Tumblr media
In the dynamic realm of aviation, a transformative shift is underway — one that echoes a global call for sustainability and responsible resource utilization.
This evolution is vividly embodied in the realm of aviation materials, where a metamorphosis from conventional to eco-friendly options is reshaping the industry’s trajectory. The emergence of sustainable materials in aviation products marks a pivotal juncture where innovation converges with environmental consciousness. This journey, characterized by pioneering alternatives and innovative solutions, brings to the forefront a profound transition that not only redefines aircraft components but also endeavors to reduce the industry’s carbon footprint. In this exploration of “The Evolution of Sustainable Materials in Aviation Products,” we delve into the motivations driving this paradigm shift, the groundbreaking materials that are challenging traditional norms, and the broader implications for greener skies and a more sustainable aviation future.
From Conventional to Eco-Friendly: A Paradigm Shift in Aviation Materials
The aviation landscape is undergoing a remarkable metamorphosis, characterized by a sweeping transition from conventional materials to a more sustainable ethos. This transformative journey signifies a departure from the once-dominant reliance on resource-intensive and ecologically burdensome materials, ushering in an era where eco-friendliness takes center stage. The aviation industry, driven by a heightened awareness of its environmental footprint, is steering away from the well-trodden path of traditional materials towards the uncharted territory of innovative, eco-friendly alternatives.
This shift is not merely a superficial change, but rather a reflection of a conscientious effort to harmonize operational demands with ecological responsibility. As concerns over climate change and sustainability take precedence, aviation pioneers are harnessing their expertise to explore materials that not only meet stringent operational requirements but also adhere to the principles of environmental stewardship.
Within the realms of this subheading, we embark on an expedition into the motivations fueling this paradigm shift. By unraveling the intricate layers of driving forces, we uncover a landscape where sustainability takes flight, steering aviation toward a future where resource-efficient, eco-friendly materials redefine the very essence of the industry.
Innovative Solutions: Pioneering Sustainable Alternatives for Aircraft Components
In the ever-evolving realm of aviation, sustainable materials have ignited a blaze of innovation, propelling forward a new era of eco-conscious alternatives for vital aircraft components. This surge of progress has engendered a symphony of transformative solutions that echo through the industry. Engineers and researchers, guided by a resolute commitment to sustainability, are breaking the barriers of conventionality and venturing into uncharted realms of creativity.
From the emergence of lightweight biocomposites that blend efficiency with eco-friendliness to the formulation of biofuels that promise reduced emissions and a cleaner sky, these inventive minds are sculpting a future where aviation’s environmental impact is mitigated without compromising safety. Notably, recyclable metals, once relegated to the end-of-life phase, are now being integrated into aircraft design, embracing a circular economy that promotes longevity and sustainability.
As we traverse this realm, we unveil a landscape characterized by audacious imagination, daring to reimagine what aircraft components can be. This journey into innovative materials is a testament to the aviation industry’s dedication to stewarding the planet while maintaining the highest safety standards. By delving into these revolutionary materials, we glimpse a tantalizing vision of aviation’s potential to chart a course toward a greener, more sustainable future.
Greening the Skies: How Sustainable Materials Reduce Aviation’s Environmental Footprint
Amid a world grappling with the imperative of curbing greenhouse gas emissions, sustainable aviation materials stand as a beacon of hope in the endeavor to transform the skies into a haven of environmental responsibility. Within this context, the incorporation of eco-friendly materials into aircraft manufacturing and operations emerges as a pivotal strategy to significantly mitigate the industry’s environmental footprint.
This exploration ventures into a realm of quantifiable gains, where the adoption of sustainable materials yields tangible benefits that resonate with both environmental and operational sensibilities. Through the synergy of innovation and environmental stewardship, aviation pioneers can achieve remarkable reductions in fuel consumption, thus ameliorating emissions that contribute to global carbon output. This journey further unravels the art of waste minimization, unveiling how sustainable materials can lead to streamlined manufacturing processes and a reduction in post-use disposal burdens.
By delving into the profound implications of integrating sustainable materials, we decipher a narrative that transcends theoretical discourse, bringing to light an aviation sector that resonates with eco-consciousness and responsibility. This transformative path holds the potential to rewrite the industry’s story, casting it as a protagonist in the global narrative of sustainable development and environmental preservation.

Plum Unveils Electrifying New Single “Anxiety” and Video
Tumblr media
Chicago's post-punk trio Plum is gearing up to make a significant impact with their debut album, ‘Can't Hold On To It’, scheduled for release on August 30th across streaming and physical formats. The album promises a vibrant mix of sounds, weaving together the upbeat rhythms of New Wave and No Wave, the experimental edge of Krautrock, and the gritty charm of Indie Sleaze. Plum's music is characterized by danceable grooves, dissonant guitar riffs, and melodic basslines that create a uniquely compelling listening experience. Plum has built a dedicated following through their electrifying live performances, sharing the stage with iconic acts like Brainiac, Acid Mothers Temple, and Keiji Haino, as well as local Chicago favorites Ganser and No Men. Their energetic shows culminated in a 10-date tour in Japan last December, further solidifying their reputation as a must-see live band. Ahead of the full album release, Plum has dropped two singles: the title track "Can't Hold On To It" and “Anxiety," both available on streaming platforms. The accompanying music video for "Anxiety," directed by Zack Moser, brilliantly captures the band's signature blend of nervous energy and absurdism, offering a tantalizing glimpse of what's to come on the full LP.

Demystifying Perfume Jargon: Understanding Aariz Intense and Vanilla Edesia
Tumblr media
Perfume, often described as the epitome of elegance and luxury, serves as a medium through which individuals express their unique identities and sensibilities. However, navigating the intricate terminology associated with fragrances can prove daunting to many. In this essay, we embark on a journey to unravel the mysteries behind two captivating terms in the world of perfumery: "Aariz Intense" and "Vanilla Edesia." By dissecting these terms, we aim to illuminate their meanings, nuances, and significance within the fascinating realm of scent.

"Aariz Intense" represents a fragrance that embodies depth, sophistication, and intensity. With its captivating name, it hints at a narrative of strength and allure. The term "Aariz" might evoke images of resilience or leadership, setting the stage for a fragrance experience that commands attention and admiration.
As an "Intense" perfume, "Aariz" promises a heightened olfactory journey characterized by rich, complex layers of scent. Its higher concentration of fragrance oils ensures a long-lasting and impactful experience, making it well-suited for those who seek a fragrance with enduring presence.
The scent profile of "Aariz Intense" may feature a harmonious blend of aromatic notes, carefully curated to evoke a sense of opulence and sophistication.

Whether worn for special occasions or as a signature scent, Aariz Intense perfume leaves a lasting impression, enveloping the wearer in an aura of confidence and allure.
Vanilla Edesia.
"Vanilla Edesia" invites us into a world of indulgence and sensory delight, where the sweet, comforting aroma of vanilla takes center stage. The term "Vanilla" immediately conjures images of warmth, sweetness, and familiarity, promising a fragrance experience that comforts and captivates the senses.
As the star ingredient, vanilla lends its signature sweetness and depth to "Vanilla Edesia," creating a fragrance that exudes warmth and sophistication. Whether paired with floral accords for a delicate, romantic allure or combined with exotic spices for an intriguing twist, vanilla proves its versatility and timeless appeal.
The addition of "Edesia" to the name adds a layer of intrigue and sophistication, hinting at a narrative inspired by the pleasures of feasting and indulgence. This evocative term invites consumers to partake in a sensory journey that tantalizes the palate and uplifts the spirit.

Concentration Dynamics: In the world of perfumery, concentration levels play a crucial role in shaping the character and longevity of a fragrance. An "Intense" designation indicates a higher concentration of aromatic compounds, resulting in a potent and long-lasting scent experience. Sensory Impact: The intensified concentration of fragrance oils in an "Intense" perfume amplifies its olfactory impact, enveloping the wearer in a rich tapestry of scent.

I saw a similar post that I can't find right now where one of the replies introduced the concept of narrative porosity.
Basically, it's not about how good the piece of media is, it's about how many threads it leaves for you to pick up and follow up on (or how many holes it has for you to fill, hence the word "porosity"). A sort of fandom equivalent to affordances in developmental psych.
If a piece of media has resolved all its character arcs and subplots and dealt satisfyingly with all its narrative themes it leaves you nothing to do. It's all tied in a bow and you can't add anything without ruining it. Lots of more highbrow media is like that because these are things something like, say, litfic or an Oscar bait movie cares about: it has a small number of characters but their psyches are explored to exhaustion and the themes are usually done well because that's litfic's Thing. (That's what makes it good, while Fast & Furious is beloved less for its intricate characterization and more for its excellent car chase sequences.)
OTOH a CW show will have straggling plot threads and characters that appear and disappear ad hoc and themes that get dropped after two seasons and minor characters that are given certain traits for variety but that turn out to have fascinating psychological implications. Mediocre media has lots of threads to pick up on because it's shoddily made and therefore undersaturated with meaning by default.
BUT that's not the only way to have narrative porosity.
Worldbuilding that only hints at certain areas of the world or gives loads of information you can expand on also increases narrative porosity because that also gives you threads to pick up on. You wouldn't call LOTR mediocre but it has a huge fandom for exactly this reason - you get to flesh out all the random blorbos from the appendices or whatever.
This is also why media dealing with institutions and hierarchies and life within them does well - it gives you scaffolding to create your own iterations on those contexts, e.g. making your own Jedi or wizard or shinigami or waterbender OC or writing about the previous or next generation or whatever. The worldbuilding is basically a grid template where only the boxes for the main characters have been filled. OTOH if I wanted to write fic for, say, the movie Anora, I can only do that by featuring the characters of Anora, otherwise it's just a story set in New York.
Having a plot-oriented piece of media means that in-depth exploration of the characters' psyche doesn't fit the genre/format, but if your thing lasts more than like three hours your characters will behave in ways and react to things and if you've made them even the least bit humanlike that can be inferred to hint at hidden depths. Tantalizing glimpses of more complex characterizations that are never paid off in canon also create porosity, because they also leave unaddressed straggling threads. There's tension there, room for a theme or a character arc that the OG writer(s) haven't put in.
I'd argue that having characters and plots fit into easily comprehensible archetypes that are relatively detached from the setting also fits because it gives you AU potential. I recently had a talk on an ASOIAF discord server about how difficult it'd be to make a modern AU version of Theon Greyjoy, because his entire personality and mindset have been shaped by the medieval institution of sending relatives as hostages to guarantee your good behavior it'd be very hard to transplant that without losing a huge chunk of his character and motivations. OTOH more universal character beats or traits: abusive parents, star crossed love, overachieving, yearning for adventure, etc. are easier to play with by making various iterations across various settings. Luke Skywalker could be a random dude from Appalachia and he could have all the character beats from the OG movies - yearning for adventure, coming into his own, encountering his estranged father who turns out to be a dick. This can happen in Ancient Greece or in Alberta, Canada or in the Horn of Africa.
The dissatisfaction people talk about is recognizing that picking up some of the threads I described above would have made for a stronger work, or at least one more interesting to you. They're unresolved and frustratingly so, they're an annoying empty hole asking you to fill it. There's a connection that could be made but wasn't. The work isn't saturated enough with meaning, or a specific thread you care about a lot hasn't been addressed.
You can also connect the work's unresolved threads with other threads inside your head - e.g. I think I would make blorbo happy (readerfic) or I think blorbo would get along with character from fandom Y or whatever. E.g. I'm obsessed with the idea of a modern AU of The Count of Monte Cristo, because I see a novel written by a mixed race man about a man twisted by unjust imprisonment and I think about the modern prison industrial complex and what it does to minorities, and I also see the lavish wish fulfillment descriptions of fast boats and cool clothes and lavish furniture and people being judged on "taste" and I think about the cottage industry that analyzes every expensive object that's ever appeared in Succession and I think a Monte Cristo modern AU would be a crowdpleaser that I would LOVE to see. That's a thread I've connected to something entirely outside the original novel that's relevant and fun to me.
OTOH I think there's a type of work that says very little in the actual text but wields its blank spaces so masterfully that you get this feeling that trying to fill them would make everything worse. The blank spaces already have meanings.
Challengers for example - a lot of its artistry is in expertly wielding the tension, in choosing what to show you and where to cut off. It does feel saturated with meaning even though it leaves so much unsaid because the "narrative whitespace" takes on a meaning of its own, like the arrow in the FedEx logo can only possibly be an arrow. It's hands down my favourite movie of the year, but I'm lowkey kind of scared to look up fic for it in case I ruin it somehow. I feel like extending the narrative beyond the movie's ending would make things less thematically resolved, like adding things to the FedEx logo might.
A lot of my favourite book series play with unreliable narrators and characters' perceptions and what is said and what is implied, and it feels almost crass to break up the way the whitespace in them is set up. I dunno, it feels like easy pickings to write a fic explicitly describing how the Regent abused Laurent from CaPri, or Gen and Irene's first night as a couple for Queen's Thief, or Lymond breaking down emotionally for the Lymond Chronicles. Like circling the FedEx arrow with a red pen and writing "arrow underneath". It kind of kills the tension, because you can already make out the shape of the missing piece from the canon, and writing it point blank kills the delicious tension in it, and perhaps even obscures the meaning and characterisation that was built into the way certain things were not said.
Sorry for the wall of text this is just a really fascinating subject for me
also this might be an unpopular opinion, but i think MOST people are actually completely able to "consume" a piece of a media without anaylzing it through a shipping lense, but i just think they than aren't likely to be posting that analysis on archiveofourown. i think for the most people what's happening is that people are like. going on fandom websites and communities and getting really annoyed they're seeing too much yaoi or whatever, and it's like there's alot of fast food at mcdonalds too, i'm sure the people eating there don't have anything else going on in there lives either
