#doesn't like the who

[truffulacore]

in the mood to post random dreampop facts instead of actually using his supposed askblog so anyway:

- his birthday is 5th Feb (there is an extremely long backstory to this but it's technically nothing to do with him so whatever)

- he's 6'4" (which I guess is average Onceler height but still)

- his favourite key is E flat

- I accidentally made him really ADD-coded while rping him in Camp Weehawken bc I don't know how people without it are supposed to act, but anyway he's now canonically got undiagnosed ADD (and also synesthesia)

- his first record was So Tonight That I Might See by Mazzy Star, which he bought in a charity shop when he was 13 just bc he liked the album cover but then it Changed His Life

- his favourite artists are Requin Chagrin, Wolf Alice, Lush, Alvvays and Mazzy Star (and many more but they're like his Top Five)

- when he's a teenager he refuses to listen to anything else but dream pop and shoegaze, but when he's an adult he'll listen to absolutely anything (can't be a famous music icon without a diverse taste in music)

- (but dream pop will always be his favourite genre <3 or else he'd have to change his nickname)

- he's 20 when he goes on his whole truffula tree search but doesn't become successful until he's 22

- he never chops down a single tree because he thinks 'Maybe they'll all run out someday. That won't be good' so he only takes the tufts, thinking he's doing a good thing. But then he still ends up indirectly killing all the plants and everything else bc

(will elaborate in a separate post)

this is just my opinion but i think any good media needs obsession behind it. it needs passion, the kind of passion that's no longer "gentle scented candle" and is now "oh shit the house caught on fire". it needs a creator that's biting the floorboards and gnawing the story off their skin. creators are supposed to be wild animals. they are supposed to want to tell a story with the ferocity of eating a good stone fruit while standing over the sink. the same protective, strange instinct as being 7 and making mud potions in pink teacups: you gotta get weird with it.

good media needs unhinged, googling-at-midnight kind of energy. it needs "what kind of seams are invented on this planet" energy and "im just gonna trust the audience to roll with me about this" energy. it needs one person (at least) screaming into the void with so much drive and energy that it forces the story to be real.

sometimes people are baffled when fanfic has some stunning jaw-dropping tattoo-it-on-you lines. and i'm like - well, i don't go here, but that makes sense to me. of fucking course people who have this amount of passion are going to create something good. they moved from a place of genuine love and enjoyment.

so yeah, duh! saturday cartoons have banger lines. random street art is sometimes the most precious heart-wrenching shit you've ever seen. someone singing on tiktok ends up creating your next favorite song. youtubers are giving us 5 hours of carefully researched content. all of this is the impossible equation to latestage capitalism. like, you can't force something to be good. AI cannot make it good. no amount of focus-group testing or market research. what makes a story worth listening to is that someone cares so much about telling it - through dance, art, music, whatever it takes - that they are just a little unhinged about it.

one time my friend told me he stayed up all night researching how many ways there are to peel an orange. he wrote me a poem that made me cry on public transportation. the love came through it like pith, you know? the words all came apart in my hands. it tasted like breakfast.

have realized that while i am not a fan necessarily of "people meet and immediately fall in love" i am a fan of "people meet and are immediately obsessed with each other." the love can come later but the absolute fixation should be immediate

You don't wish your disability was worse or more visible, you wish your disability was taken seriously. Please stop confusing the two, I guarantee you would not get the support you need JUST by being more severe or more visible. Please listen to visibly disabled people when we tell you it isn't better on our side

You have taken the whole of me. I could never accept just a piece of you in return.

Masterpost

imagine percy swimming to the bottom of the ocean. not to save a group of sea creatures. not to show off his skillset. and not to prance around as the sea god's favorite son. but to join the ocean in all that it is. laying in the soft sand and watching the fish swim by. the lobsters making space for him as he rests his head against a patch of seaweed. him laughing at the irony. imagine percy making small talk with all the different sea creatures and assigning them names. him actually running into a whale he named phillip who's on his way to propose to his boyfriend. and percy wishing him good luck and offering his blessing on their union. imagine percy making small talk with the starfish about his favorite dinosaur. and explaining to the collective group what a dinosaur is and why they don't need to worry about them reaching the bottom of the ocean. just. percy immersiving himself in all that's aquatic because it's where he can be his most self.
