#it's about the nuance 👏👌

[yandereunsolved]

[devours every one of your self aware aus] Fantastic, I need about 30 more, especially the dc ones like omgggg 😫👏👏 I never knew I needed that au in my life until now, so thank you for my new strange addiction 🙏🙏

On self aware Jason I just want to spoil that broken lil mutt [affectionate]

I just want to reach in and pull him out, do some skincare, I can practically see him melting in my lap as I massage the product in watch some period dramas I’ve been putting off, listen to whatever he wants to vent about all the while curling that cute white streak in his hairrr 😭👌

Oh btw while I’ve been looking into your dc stuff [it’s fantastic btw, may your back never ache from carrying the weight of this creativity] i noticed that you write more for adult/older Damian, nothing wrong with that obv, but I’m so use to kid Damian 😅 I wanted to ask you which Damian do you like more? I can’t see Damian as anyone other than a kid tbh, plus I think he’s way funnier as a kid, like that friends sassy lil sibling that you can’t help but be fond of, yknow? Like, in my head he isn’t Damian Wayne, he’s Damian “that lil sht” Wayne 😅😅

Legit crying because of how sweet you are. 👏

Ah, life—if it wasn't so mean to me I'd literally have like 100's of fics on just the self-aware dc (and other fandoms) characters.

On the question of Damian Wayne—I enjoy the dynamics of younger Damian in comics, but I prefer writing older Damian.

Watching young Damian in media is just so fucking awesome and he's such a little shit and I love him. 😭💗

But naturally if I'm writing him in a romantic context he is going to be older. And I just prefer writing for his older version in general. It's make him a more nuanced and complex for when I write him. He has more to go on.

Like adult Damian still needing a comforting parental figure and finding reader??? Him becoming a yandere as he takes up the mantle of Batman? Mhm... mhm... MHM!

Adult Damian is so possessive over his darling and naturally it draws the attention of his family. Even being older the others still bully him and try to steal his darling.

Like it just opens up so many possibilities in my mind.

Maybe adult yan Damian thinks yan Bruce is dead so he takes up the mantle and also makes advances on Bruce's younger darling (who is basically near Damian's age). So Damian gets Bruce's darling who he has been pining over.

And then yan Bruce comes back so it's the daddy age gap yan verses the younger more arrogant yan.

Yummy.

When Kristen left the church, they lost their chosen one. 🥲🥲🥲🥲

Buddy asks how things are working out with Kristen's new god though 😭✋

Adaine and Fabian lie and say that things are going so great with Kristen and her new god! 😭😭✋✋ Fully backing her up as they should! 😭✋👏❤️���👌

Fabian mentions Craig! 😂🤣💀

Adaine says that Helio chose Kristen but Kristen chose Cassandra! 😭✋

Kristen is invisibly crying 😭✋

Buddy asks if Kristen is around somewhere other than right in front of him! 😭 *Points to Fig disguised as Kristen* 😭✋

Fig forgot they were there! 😭✋

Fig disguised as Kristen wants to go do another shrimp jump! 😂🤣💀

Buddy: "It can't possibly be as good as the first!" 😭✋

Buddy tries to rile up everyone that they're about to see another shrimp jump! 😭✋

Fabian says to rack 'em up! 😭✋

Buddy says that Ruben is very talented.

Adaine asks Buddy what his thoughts are on Ruben's song 😂🤣💀

Kristen does an insight check on his positivity and wants to know if it's authentic 😭✋

Brennan: "I think you recognize it from growing up in the church and growing up amongst the Harvestman. On first glance, the fact that Buddy is here fraternizing, unless there's some secret nefarious reason that he's here to do this, right, would put him in a different category from the Harvestman or Coach Daybreak, right? Coach Daybreak would not be able to be here and not be aggressive and hostile to people, right? But it doesn't mean that all of Buddy's positivity is sincere. I think you would read it in a more nuanced way. Buddy's positivity is partially coming from a genuine place. That genuine place is deeply judgemental, but maybe some part of him wants what's best for other people, but that wanting what's best for other people, is cloaked in a really myopic sort of Manichaean worldview. So it's the mix of- it's all the good and bad stuff that you would-

Ally: It's extremely recognizable

Brennan: "Extremely recognizable"

Brennan: "I don't think Kristen would clock it as positive, but that doesn't mean it's not genuine, right? It has all the problems you associate..."

Brennan: "You WERE this kid, so it's like, whatever you didn't like about your old self you feel like, oh, it's present in this kid who's also drinking water out of a beer can, and is here being like, 'I genuinely love everyone at this party, and I wanna keep you from doing the choices that are wrong that you're making. You know, that vibe, right?"

Adaine asks Buddy why he joined the rat grinders

Adaine and Fig asked if he replaced somebody and Buddy said that he got requested specifically by them. 🥲

Riz asks him if something happened to somebody on their team. 🥲

Riz asks if he knows if the rat grinders had any former members.

THE FAREWELL: A Perfect Happy/Sad movie (And A "Third Culture Kid" Canon!)

What is it about:

THE FAREWELL is a 2019 drama by Lulu Wang inspired by her true story and, as the film told us, "a real lie".

At the center of it is Billi, played to perfection by an awkward-like Awkwafina, a Chinese-American writer who moved to New York with her parents when she was only 6.   She is still super close to her grand-mother Nai Nai (Zhao Shuzhen) taklingto her on the phone as the film begins. Even though she says that all is well in China, Billi senses something is odd and soon learns that Nai Nai is terminally but she does not even know herself! It is common (and legal) in China for the doctor to divulge this kinds of result only to family and then they decided what to do with the sad news. In Billi's family's case they decide not to tell the matriarch but instead, everyone will go to see Nai Nai maybe one last time,  under the false pretense of Billy' cousin wedding preparations and ceremony! It sounds completely insane, yet it is a mostly true story and what ensue is full of authenticity, subtle emotions, family drama at dinners but also lots of laughters.

Why you should watch it: THE FAREWELL is one of the best film of the year so far and it could easily stay in the top 25 by the end of the year - unless something magic happens🤭 - It is an incredibly genuine idea and unique story and we NEED more of this please...NOW! In all fairness this might deserve a best screenplay /story award, and, sure LUCKY GRANDMA brought us The Grandma that def should be nominated for an Oscar (altho “Hollywood old man” might have other plan for someone ...younger💩(aint ageism a B$#! ) Well that and maybe a bit of something else🤭) But this Chinese grandma likewise served us a “lesson in acting” so, can there be room for 2 tho?( one in lead one in supporting) Akwafina was seriously good  and strangely better in the teary moments than the jokes, but hey we got “the cousin” for those comic of situation scenes! So no complain here😜) and Tzi Ma as usual, delivered👏

 Which we could all be multilingual to understand of the subtlety of all films in an languages ( in this case mandarin as apparently there was some sort of “inside joke” as per the bilingual next to me! Guess OKJA did that too for Koreans 🤔) But still as it is AND should be the subtitles and killer acting worked to wonder and it was the right amount of funny/sad with some visual and musical highlights and a solid direction.

In addition, it often looked real good with some delightful contemplative scenes #ourkindofjam It was raw when needed and “arty” from times to times (which it was a a bit more of that tho, but hey, we cant have it all and sometime that’s okay 👌)

MORAL OF THE STORY: Highly recommend 7.5-8/10🙌

It is, in a way a great ode to the third culture kid , global millennium, or immigrant who, in a way, will always feel - or made to feel like by "others" - out of places and yet belong to these many places... Many of us will deeply relate even though our cultures or baggage are different. There is something quintessential or universal about this experience and Akwafina, and by extension the director, embody this notion with all the nuances and "feelings" Also, if diversity in-front & behind the camera means more films like this - 30/70% English/foreign language + no “washing” of any kind + people “who knows best” get to tell stories they know better than someone else who just got a name or money or a certain vision no matter how good-hearted or righteous + high-end indie artistic values + ensemble movie + movies that are specific yet touch all - then, why dont we get more of this then! ;) 🙏🎬

Now go on and support awesome independent Film...That is all🙉🙈🙉
