alright, I’m annoyed with the class that I’m taking. it’s about writing novels, and I thought it would have cool stuff about balancing your narrative and developing themes etc, but instead she spent the first class talking about how every book fits into the Hero’s Journey (the monomyth template). and I was somewhat of a contrarian, and said “can you give us examples of books that don’t fit into this template?” and she said “no. because all books fit.”

but I dunno man, I just finished reading this Korean book where the plot is just the character having a string of hookups and reflecting on them without changing in any way. I don’t know if it’s possible to contort that into the Hero’s Journey.

#I think the class will still be worth it because she assigns a lot of exercises #and basically all I want is for an external party to force me to write about things that I wouldn’t otherwise #I’ll still come out of this improved in the ways that I want to be #but every time she says something definitive about story structure I’m just like 👀👀👀

nevermind everyone winner's symbolism cancelled. we cannot have another scar earth/mercury/comet situation again. I vote we all lay down our weapons and join hands in peace and accept that the one true symbol for Joel is the Car. wherever he goes whatever flavour of symbols you particularly enjoy. Car. Just Car. Because it would be really funny

#and also we could goncharov it. “oh doesnt your solar system have a car in it? thats weird mine does otherwise i wouldnt have assigned this #guy the car planet as a symbol.“#“oh your tarot deck doesnt have the CARd? weird. mines always been like that you must be missing some”#wild life spoilers #trafficblr #elfy talks #life series #life series spoilers #life series smp #smallishbeans #joel smallishbeans #wild life smp #wild life #guys please im begging we cant return to the infighting again #this totally isnt in reaction to the joel tag being filled with symbol arguments already ahaha what do you mean thatd be crazy... [silly]

His ass does not pay attention enough to know all of their genders. Toph wears baggy clothes, he squinted at her and went “yeah that’s a boy. Or boy adjacent. Probably.” and moved on. Ally???

"jason is a knockoff watered down percy" NO hear me out, jason actually parallels annabeth immensely, sharing SO many similarities with her personality, not percy, in this essay I will-
