a little post-comics rewatch note: i think s1 ep6 is a very smart first taste of the general pattern mark tends to fall into when faced with particularly traumatic experiences: ie avoid avoid overcorrect obsess about something else while very obviously drowning in it and letting it dictate all of your future decisions

[daincrediblegg]

should I be nervous to give my lecture about edgar allan poe film adaptations: a subject that I "know like the back of my hand"? no. Am I going to be anxious about it and work all night tomorrow night anyway? most likely yes.

I have to ask WHY on earth did they turn Flannery into a goldfish??? What did he do to them to make them want to Literally Curse Him??

man. thats a good question. let's see if i have an answer JFKLDSKFLJDS

i'll be real a lot of it was me kinda winging it improv style - i should probs clarify [im not sure how clear i am on artfight lol] that moooost of my non twst characters are like, from a roleplay thing my friend and i do in google docs together kfdsjfl so thats where flannerys from. and then sometimes, plotlines and characters stem from an idea on a whim - like originally i had an idea for flannery to be a lost prince that was turned into a fish by like, enemy hitmen or sometihing.

and tbh that makes more sense than family betrayal LOL but i thiiiiiiiiiink i swapped it to son of a politician and also an influencer [cries lol] because it fit the 'modern au' better. modern fantasy. whatever. also we do have a separate au googledoc universe that IS royalty themed so maybe one day he will be a missing prince there teehee

ok anyway sorry i havent answered your actual question i got distracted lol. so aside from half of it being me coming up with shit on the fly and being kind of bad at storytelling klsjfkdshf the IN UNIVERSE ANSWER is like, flannery kinda just doesnt have a good relationship with his family - his parents suck and flannerys not a "useful asset" and is also the product of infidelity. so it's like, he's not going to be a powerful politician or business guy, he's not good on camera, and also theres this unspoken secret of him being someone else's son <- i think my idea here was like, the father is Aware his wife was having an affair and that flannery isnt his kid but neither of them have Spoken Of It because blah blah keeping up appearances a divorce would be a scandal whatever. you know how it is with traditional family values 😒

and i think i have also just watched a lot of youtube videos covering family vlogger scandals/ also just regular vlogger scandals, and sometimes that shits just wild LOL so i was like ok. politician dad doesnt like or care about this kid, vlogger mom sees his disappearance as months worth of content to milk lol. so they hired someone to Get Rid Of Him - i cant remember if they... planned the fish part. maybe. i guess so? the plan tho was just have him turned into a fish that would probably get eaten and act like he got kidnapped or ran away and then announce hes dead later.

flannery's got an older brother that shows up at his school and is like, a clone of their mom, in that hes like "omg theres this GUY HERE who is PRETENDING to be my DEAD BROTHER i need to live stream this." and then something something their relation was proved and he pivoted immediately to "oh wowwww my poor sweet brother i cant BELIEVE our parents tried to cover you up like this wow i missed u so much let's be besties [lie]"

so anyway. there kind of isnt that a good reason besides drama + theyre in a magical setting and i thought it was fun LOL. flannery's one of my much newer characters so i havent had a lot of time to fully flesh out his character yet. he's a lil one note right now and i need to figure him out a bit more to make him,,,, actually interesting,,, but. 🫡

Girl help my mental health is at its limit

[ladykyriaa]

I'm starting to think I might have troubles with idk. Social interaction? Social cues? Whatever

Cause my friend just told our other friends about how she'd asked me to get basically dinner together near the place I dorm in, and that often times I'd reject her. Because. Yeah I don't do dinners, I don't eat dinners. Literally.

And she said she felt rejected and I just. It caught me off guard so bad because I never intended to reject her at all. She's a dear friend. But whenever she'd asked me if I wanted to eat with her, of course I'd said no, because again, I don't eat dinners. So I thought there was no point. Yknow

But then it occured to me that maybe I could've just sat there with her and we could've talked, since we're no longer in the same class. We could've used that opportunity to catch up

But I took her invitation way too literal and it. I guess in a way backfired.

And I honestly feel so bad because then I think she probably felt like I didn't care enough with our friendship. But I honestly just didn't want to bother her or make her feel awkward if she ate and I didn't.

I mean I know I would've because I honestly feel awkward eating with other people regardless. But thne again if they took the time of their day just to chat with me and accompany to eat. I'd also would've deeply appreciate it
