Plot idea!:
A slice of life show that starts out very chill and normal and says like that for most of it's run, until the very end where something goes catastrophically wrong in the season finale, trauma happens, characters die, etc etc
Except a secondary character gets transported right back to the start, and season 2 is the same series of events we saw in season 1, but now that character is desperately trying to alter the course of fate to no avail, losing a bit of himself in each attempt, it doesnt get nearly as bad as it can before the series ends abruptly though.
after the series ´ends´, it gets a 'reboot' ,but now we get a fresh perspective, with the interesting creative liberty taken of using a different secondary character, the secondary character turned main character from the last series run is still around, but his screentime is reduced considerably. some events play out different from the first season, but that´s to be expected from a reboot, right? the show takes much less time to present the world and the story for the first time, skipping ahead to the dramatic ´´finale´´, and subsequent firstrewind.
and the audience gets to watch a completely new and different character go through the story again, trying to save everyone from the tragedy, failing in some areas the previous one didnt, and doing well in some areas the onter one failed at-
but the audince can catch glimpses of the other secondary character every once in a while, acting and thinking in a distinctive different way, when all the other characters have had practically no change to their personalities, and it dawns on them, through the bits and peices recollected every time said character appears, that it´s *exactly* the same person as the old series, the change of personality more due to the loops chipping away at his stability for who knows how long. and it´s a strange feeling, recognizing someone you used to know almost every detail of, now as a starnger, recognizing them *because* theyre now a stranger
#anyways idk what the ultimate point of the narrative would be#its really tricky and could get overly repetitive fast; i´d only trust an unhinged webtoon author with this tbh lol#but uhh yeah; posting this here bc its been sitting around in my drafts and im hoping to clear those out one day :3#shut up sheo#part of this connects to the ideas im gonna use for times end so yea#especially moonlight; that plot point has legit made me cry just trying to solidify it haha :´)#oc talk
