normalize being unobservant. like um what?

you know amatonormativity in fiction doesn't just mean "aspec characters being forced into relationships" right? because although that is a huge part of it, it also means characters who are fully capable of being attracted to others are always paired up no matter what because "they would be lonely otherwise 🥺" like i don't know if i'm making sense right now but it really rubs me the wrong way when the only character in a fandom to not be constantly shipped is the aspec character because that still perpetuates the idea that romantic/sexual relationships are expected and being aspec is an outlier!!!!!! kicking and screaming this is still amatonormativity!!!!!!!!!

I do not “ship” these characters. shipping has connotations. I simply think they’re going to collide like meteors in each other’s lives and reach thermonuclear temperatures of codependency and parallels and they’re the only ones who will ever understand the other. but like I don’t want them to kiss

tragic: the game they said is hard is hard

thinking about ares and prim. thinking about suzanne collins' doomed by the narrative characters. characters who are set to die in the first book (ares' attempted banishment, prim's reaping) and it being avoided through the main character (gregor bonding to ares, katniss volunteering for prim) and how in the end, the third segment of each grand finale, they die anyway. ares is torn apart by what was, in the prophecy, supposed to kill gregor. prim is blown up by the rebellion katniss was fighting for. they die and it's brutal. it's pointless. and that's the point. thinking about "you'll have to let [ares] go yourself," the plastic toy bat, and "she's dead, you stupid cat," the primrose pressed in the pages of the book. thinking about characters who are fated to die.

i think in the hypothetical botw/totk follow-up there should be a big train that you can ride on

so like obviously shipping john and arthur is like totally cool but can I just say that to me the fact that they’ll never be romantic is very cool and important. like idk I just like the fact that they are friends, and they don’t need to be anything "more" than that. there’s no push for them to take “the next step” or whatever because they are friends!!!!! and that’s so important!!!! in a world where romance is prioritized and glorified it really means a lot to me to know that my favorite little guys won’t be like that, instead they mean so much to each other as friends!! they love each other!! they are friends!!!

you know what. tuc deserves a musical adaptation like lightning thief got. like i wanna see gregor open with an i want song, a regalia establishing number, a boots-and-the-cockroaches number, luxa gets a number as we get to know her, ripred gets the song that gets a million hits on youtube, henry gets an evil reprise of a previous number (probably with him and luxa), gorger gets a villain song, ares reprises maybe gregor's number??? and everyone has their own leitmotif and all the creatures would be puppets and it'd fuck so hard

book by acclaimed author william cipher is in my possession. hope it doesn’t lead to actual possession (wink)

[cutter-kirby]

one of my favorite favorite favorite things ever is when a character is criticizing/making fun of someone else but they’re actually totally talking about themself

[cutter-kirby]

joke theories mixed with real ones for the sillies
