me: i still havenāt finished forbidden colours. its a penguin book, itās very nice to the touch. i should pick it up again perhaps
the book, opened on a random page: a woman who is complimented feels, spiritually, something familiar to prostitutes.
me: closes the book.
#I DON'T KNOOOOOW#i liked confessions of a mask#perhaps because of it i expected to find a protagonist i'd care about enough to want to listen to whatever he had to say/find out what#happens to him. but forbidden colours' protagonist is like... 300% cuntier#perhaps i am too (gestures asexually) for this. 'this perfectly beautiful boy seduced the elegant but secretly pathetic married woman.#oh! the pathetic married woman anguished about the perfectly beautiful boy who had been so charming! so gallant and so perfectly beautiful!'#YAWN the misogyny levels are through the roof throughout the entire book. perhaps i should coomit the sin of reading it in the way of fandom#'haha they're all so pathetic lmfao!!! *insert 47 memes*' like they certainly are. all of them. this is a fact#but when i see all those horrible people soooo emotional over each other i just Cannot feel it. 'X was Overwhelmed by the Y emotion!'#ok but. can't they... not be? it should be easy. pick up painting my good friend#shrimp thoughts

do you guys ever think about that scene in mp100 s1 ep 8 or 9 where mob remembers back on all the times ritsu offered him help w/something or asked him to talk about things and heād declined, lbut now with the realization that ritsu had been reaching out and asking mob to connect with him in the only way he knew how this entire time, and mob had never picked up on that or even notice his brother was struggling, and that every time heād said no heād pushed ritsu away a little more?
(this has nothing to do with my relationship with any of my siblings in real life btw donāt look into it š)
#mp100#like when i say i have literally done this exact thing before#where i thought back on the interactions iāve had with my higher masking younger sister#and realized that iād been rejecting her bids for connection and pushing her away#ok oversharing time over lmao#and then in the confession arc ritsu realizes that all this time mob had been struggling too#and itās such an obvious thing you donāt even realize it.

JIMIN MENTION. Riverdale characters as BTS members
unfortunately i did workshop this with the army gc and i think i have a proposal. it doesn't totally work because of gender dynamics and the way the universes of corporate-competitive art performance and riverdale aren't really quite aligned, but i think i got somewhere.
RIVERDALE MAINS AS BTS MEMBERS:
jughead = rm / kim namjoon. iconoclast. the lyricist-narrator of the whole deal. the link to the big corporate-bureaucratic metaplot in the sky. a typewriter kind of guy. there are so so so many of him and sometimes they interact. queerbait-complicit and yet sidestepping it.
reggie = jin / kim seokjin. the negotiator. the big-city boyfriend from the hallmark movie. the nation's son-in-law but DID flirt with your grandmother and your dad at the function. fed that mean old man from his bare hand. schemes and scams, less opportunistically than as a vocational calling. second place to karl marx and knows it.
betty = suga / min yoongi. she's resisting her idol image with her gratuitously-edgy secondary persona but she's still your poor little meow meow, your baby. she's alert! she's fractured! her amygdala is working sooo hard. her shadow grows and grows and she's avoiding it she's looking at it she's avoiding it she's looking. don't say tangerine.
veronica = j-hope / jung hoseok. idk it's about perfectionism. it's about how CRYING š DOES š NOT š FIT š WITH š HER š LIFE'S š VIBE. it's about lean-in girlbossism. it's about success not creating psychological safety (but she wants more anyway bc what else is she here to do). she's nice but she's ruthless but she loves you!! and on several tragic levels iykyk: she da bus driver all of a sudden.
kevin = jimin. compulsive joiner. compulsive people-pleaser. compulsive flirt. compulsive. mapplethorpe fanboy. gender outlaw. a smoke-show, now. most likely to charm a late night talk show host. queerbaiter of the cruising-coded-crowd-scene variety. most likely to put it all on the line for a little cabaret ā„
cheryl = v / kim taehyung. questionable art appreciator. questionable painter. questionable self portrait accumulator. high-aesthetic curator of Scenes and Situations. president of gay fanservice (self-appointed). glamorous alien OR reclusive little freak. if the high-aesthetic, melodramatic-literary closet case lament fits.
archie = jungkook. golden boy all-rounder. beefcake-on-display. designated himbo. Wants To Help. will NOT contribute to a conversation so don't even try. gives kind of a sincere wounded baby animal quality at times. queerbait via lore-relevant chime card sponcon (this isn't jarchie but it does make you ask yourself "is charlie puth sort of jugheadcore, if jughead sucked (derogatory) instead of sucking (complimentary)?")
#riverdale#bts#bangtan#jeon jungkook#kim taehyung#veronica lodge#min yoongi#archie andrews#park jimin#kim seokjin#betty cooper#jughead jones#kevin keller#jung hoseok#kim namjoon#cheryl blossom#reggie mantle#suga would EAT those ultimate wildcard bars. 'the nightmare from next door' and then one of his little ad lib aggressive 'HUH's after it#gc coined 'namjug' and i really hate that. so thanks anon. you did this to me. namjug#i ruined most of my bts ships i mean 'subunits' (i mean ships) with this btw (rpf is fine if you're silly with it btw. don't @ me)#so please don't take this as a comment on dynamics either on riverdale OR within the extended bts personas / masks / characters universe#the mapping that works the WORST here i think is jin:reggie. jin makes such a point of not taking anything too seriously#he's a little bit of a marilyn about it all. he plays.#and that makes him fundamentally just soooo incompatible with riverdale. where every character takes it SO seriously#just constant ego threat#the least riverdale thing about BTS is that they all kind of pretend not to have families within their celebrity personas#and riverdale is soooo so so very much about parents and parent<>child relationships#riverdale also can't really accommodate aegyo. hence my leaning into grim takes on bts members who are often quite cutesy#like jimin. but i do think the kevin alignment works really well for him outside of that. if you understand we're being gothic#if there's one must-watch video linkout in this post it's probably v singularity. beautiful riff on confessions of a mask. art. camp!

lsoh au but Arthur is the dentist instead and Orinās just a wet cat who has to sit through his yapping
---
#how would Seymour feed the plant?#you couldnt even kill arthur#you try to shoot him and he wiggles out of the way like Tom n Jerry#or bends the end of the gun back at you and you turn into a big poof of smoke when it fires#if you let him suffocate from the mask his head would pop n he would deflate comedically#but then a new head would pop out of the neck hole seconds later#i despise that man#he is far too powerful#little shop of horrors#confession#arthur denton#orin scrivello

#HMMMMM I WONDER WHO THAT COULD BE#*ships terukane so hard I implode*#They don't even really know him beyond the ideal :(#Like#they confess to him#and the girl confessing probably DOES have feelings for him specifically#but can it really be for him specifically when all she knows#all she cares for#is the mask he shows??#And THAT'S why terukane is real folks#Akane looks at Teru and goes āoh god what an asshole of a manā#Akane has no perfect illusion of Teru#no thought that he could be acting on anything BUT his wants#and YEAH Akane's not seeing the full picture#but ALSO with just what he's seen his reaction is still to think of Teru as a PERSON#albeit a terrible horrible one#Akane: there is NOTHING ideal about him; he's just a DICK#Teru: *in love*#jshk#minamoto teru#tbhk#teru minamoto#oh no my terukane agenda's leaking through#I need to eventually compile a buncha these tags into an Actual Coherent Post on my main but that would take energy soooo

having the flu sucks. my time is consumed by sleep and watching 1 season shows that got cancelled with all the right hooks because some reviewers are stupid as HELL.
#*#like idk i read the reviews and im like.#im begging#suspend ur disbelief for like 0.2 seconds and maybe you would actually enjoy urself once in a while#'a small town with a high stakes game played every year by the graduating class to win a huge pot of money to get outta town'#the reviewer: sounds fake#well duh. no one used their front facing camera to record the games.#LIKE. OFC IT SOUNDS FAKE AND STUPID#first of all it probably does happen second of all that is the point though#'as if this character is more sympathetic' girl they all willingly covered up the hit and run of the protag's twin. including the protag#no one here is supposed to be someone you root for. everyone has a stake in it.#also the worst best girlfriends win at the end so its even BETTER#literally margot's confession to allison/lennon in the ambulance while twisting the oxygen mask cord sent SHIVERS down my spine#love to see a toxic gf winning#and then you've got the big wet eyes of a guy in love in the next show?#and a blindfolded confession thats poetic? SHUT UPPPPPPPP#anyway. in conclusion: they have enough hooks for at least 3 seasons.#like just. roll with it. goddamn.#raaaaahhhhhhhh

According to Ellis, women are fascinated by male strength, but they have no opinions about male beauty. Insensitive almost to the point of being blind, they have a discerning eye for male beauty not greatly different from that of the normal male. (Forbidden Colours, trans. Alfred H. Marks, Penguin edition p. 94)
oh mr mishima you would be pleasantly surprised by kpop stans. perhaps even disgusted
#shrimp thoughts#my mother yesterday: is this all we are as women? to fawn over and get stupidly excited over men's bodies and what they have in their pants#because some kpop girlies were thirsting over jk on twt apparently. lady you are in kpop guy thirsting corner of the website#augh no but seriously while i loved confessions of a mask forbidden colours is... A Journey certainly#50 shades of misogyny in which all men are convinced women are the oppressing class except every time a female character appears#even if the narration is going out of its way to tell you the reader about how stupid and limited and suffering in its misery she is...#it's like. yknow if not for the stupid ass men and the misogynistic society this girl would've been happy.#eeeeevery single time i see female characters casually wondering if their partners have someone on the side -- which should be a deal#breaker but isn't -- and just bear it in silence instead of cutting the bitch off once and for all i am mentally looking into the camera.#shunsuke fucking. 'is amazed that 'and old person with kidney disease could do him so unwitting a bodily injury just because she was a#woman' and then the bodily injury is that she gives him her dead husband's necktie pin which he puts in his pocket and forgets about#and then later he puts his hand in his pocket and pricks his fingertip on it. this is what kinda person shunsuke is lmao#'i don't want to read the classics! they're all just old misogynistic white men!' diversity win! this classic has old misogynistic#JAPANESE men instead!

also like who is this chiemon guy and why have only now been hearing about him after that one confession blog post from a couple days ago
#does he or does he not have the same appeal as izou yes or no answer quickly#well either way my first thought after seeing the confession was to search him up on here#and apparently heād already been on the smash it pass poll blog too???? pass got more votes#with one comment under that poll being super exaggerated like āwho would want to fuck this guyā#meanwhile I was like you underestimate how big a crush I had on reita in middle school#with the same styled messy spiky hair and face/nose mask
