closed starter for @exmcrtis (pip)
Writing felt impossible most days. Link was doing his best to get by on whatever he could in a town like this, but it was pretty fair to say the withdrawals were finally getting to a point that made life unbearable. So while he usually liked to sit in the library to write, today he was simply going to try to get away from his thoughts and feelings.
"Oh." He hadn't expected to see anyone in his favorite spot - he had picked it specifically because it was far away from most other things, and even with half the town in ruins, the library was easy enough to get into whenever he wanted. "I don't usually find anyone here before me."

The Mari Lwyd Twitter saga (2020 - part three)
This is part of my efforts to transcribe @seananmcguire's holiday Mari Lwyd Twitter threads. The hashtag for now is #Mari Lwyd Project, the first post is here, the thread's source is here.
(Many thanks to @dor-min on finding and linking this one!)
There are a couple from this year that are short, and even single replies that Seanan likely didn't have time to reply to. So this is their collection! Authors will be linked in their comments as best I can.
CW for food, just in case.
Lorcan Murphy (Twitter): Alas were I only a mutual, Mari Lwyd I'd offer rhymes crucial. We'd barter o'er offering asked unpredictable Afore presenting a demanded varietal victual The dead from the living must bide dividual But this rhyme for the horse is purely volitional.
Seanan: Your rhyming's exquisite, So clean and refined. I'll grant you a visit, To seek cheese with rind, Or cheese that's been softened, Or processed or plain... When Mari Lwyd's summoned, She sings her refrain.
Cheese or beer! Cheese or beer! I know that you have it here!
Lorcan: Alas all my beer has been spilt in a pan And as unlikely it seems, my cheese melted and ran My flour and yeast in the oven to bake So I'm terrible short of scran you can take Bide if you can, I'll no make it a habit and I'll offer a pretzel and Welsh-German rabbit
---
Cassandra Khaw (Carrd / Twitter): A single wedge of manchego I do possess, Not a wedge nor a morsel more than that, If I was someone who had cheese in excess, I'd offer them to you, and have all your desires.
But lo, you bony equine, Such is all I can give: This lonely cheese of mine, I offer in tithe.
Seanan: To give when there's plenty Is glorious kind: But it's kinder by far When you've little but rind.
I am grateful to you, On this shortest of days, For your holiday spirit And generous ways.
---
The singles!
(I'm posting peoples' handles as I see them, will do my best here. If someone rhymed or made poetry and I couldn't find a 'do not repost' on their profile, I included it.)
John & Bucky: I’m just here to watch A skeletal horse seeking Cheese and wine through rhyme
Stephanie Annand: Alas! For the lack! Of cheese in my home; Will you accept yogurt As onward you roam?
Eleri: I have some ok parm, and a generic swiss A really good chevre would not go amiss This stupid pandemic has cut into my cheese-buying I'm afraid sharing these cheeses, the dead horse would send me flying.
Paige Wolf: Cheese and spiced wine You’ll definitely find; In my kitchen, I’ll fill up your cup!
Come in please, my friend! Time we will spend, In drinking and singing, Bottoms up!
warcabbit: Wassail, wassail? I give you mulled ale and a nice nutty cheese to boot.
It is the season Be kind without reason And generous with gifts and loot.
Stephanie Caitlyn: I do not have cheese, I only have curry, For when I did leave, It was in quite a hurry.
Into the headlights I peer like a deer, But with you I gladly will share my paneer.
Starry_Marie: I know there are many With rhymes that are better But one thing I do have - A large chunk of cheddar
@Chimaera.bsky.social: Oh Mare, at thy feet I lay Some Caveman Blue and olives today. Cambezola roasted with garlic cloves, Squeezed upon fine grilled bread loaves. A bit of Brie to melt your heart, A nutty Parm to fuel your start, Melted Gruyère to dip things in, & Queso fresco (you're looking thin)
Cake and Arsenic: Oh mari lywd, please don't feel down, With your big boney head, in your white cotton shroud, For you'll find that my larder is stocked full of cheese, And you're welcome to come and eat all that you please.
JLH: (not a mutual, but it seems fun and kinda inspired me) Dread equine I hear your call! And in my larder is a prize, A piece of asiago for your skeletal maw Please accept my gift and silence your cries.

Red Eye (2005) Early Screenplay Trivia
First of all, I'm very sorry for clogging your Red Eye/Jackson x Lisa feed with DVD commentary. I was planning to do the same with the final shooting script but I guess it will just one post with the juiciest stuff (and just give the link to the script with highlited Jackson/Lisa stuff).
Now, to the main topic of the post. In 2011 someone nicknamed "cougarlady" posted a link for Red Eye's early script draft by Carl Ellsworth on Cillian Murphy's fan forum (https://cillianforum.proboards.com/thread/4257/original-red-eye-script). The bad news is the link currenty doesn't work. The good news is one printed copy of that script still exists. If you have spare 169$ you can purchace it on e-bay (https://www.ebay.com/itm/353755359870). Another good news: some lucky fellas on the forum shared their impressions regarding the script so we have some bits and pieces of the early movie script, which is quite different from the final product. So here's what they
One more important thing to consider (it wasn't discussed on the forum) - Lisa and Jackson were meant to be older (5-10 years) than Rachel and Cillian were at the time of shooting. Especially given that Wes' first dream casting were Sean Penn and Robyn Wright (who were married at the time btw).
Lisa's backstory was different: she wasn't raped but lost her husband instead (he died). Also she had an affair with Keefe at some point. (accoriding to Cyraus)
Speaking of Keefe, he was meant to be a businessman, he only became a polititian after test screenings. (this wasn't mentioned on the forum, but you can find it out in DVD commentary and interviews maybe).
Rippner was the one to stand up to irritated passanger (Lisa didn't take part in it, I guess). (accoriding to Cyraus)
Jackson seems to be much more cruel and cold-hearted than Cillian's rendition. Users described him as narcissist and sociopath. "Also, this Script-Rippner seemed very inconsequent about his feelings for Lisa. He seems to REALLy hate her at some parts." (quote by iseebutterfly)
Jackson threatens Lisa to kill not only Joe, but her entire family. It seems like he killed her grandmother, unfortunately no context, 'cause in the movie the last part would make no sence. (according to cougarlady)
Funny enough Jackson has no tangible evidence that he can order kill anyone (unlike the movie). (according to cougarlady)
And despite this the chemistry is still present. "I love the scene where he kisses her forehead, even if just to unsettle her, but I hate that the took away this thing they had, this weird chemistry, neither of them could explain." (quote by iseebutterfly)
The early script doesn't have the lavatory scene yet. (accoriding to Cyraus)
"The part where he has her in his clutches ready to break her neck with his mouth crawling over her almost makes up for not having the lavatory scene." (quote by Cyraus)
A little bit about Jackson's name. Given his "No Lie" rule (at least when it comes to Lisa) the watchers assume it is his real name. However, Wes said in one of interviews that it is made up (to suit Lisa's father initials). A this is quite confusing tbh. Anyway the early draft suggests that Jackson's real name is... George King. And you thought Jack Rippner was bad... Although there is no consensus on whether or not "George" is his real name either. (according to Cyraus, cougarlady and iseebutterfly)
Jackson and Lisa had a dialogue where Lisa said that his is fucked. His replies are "Lisa, that language doesn't suit you." and "If you don’t look at me, you’ll get a glimpse of just how f*cked I am." There's no context unfortunately. (according to Cyraus and Cait)
The ending was different. They do not specify it. But from what we know from DVD commentary, the final fight in the Reiserts' house was Wes's idea.
P.S.: I probably missed something, so I suggest to check out the forum page yourself.

It’s Monday, and I usually post the latest chapter of my fic on Mondays. Alas, the thing is fully published: 76,000 words and 30 chapters (the 31st is just emotional blurb).
I’m sad. But I’m writing the sequel, so I’m happy, too. And sad...
So here you go, all things “The Light of Stars” in one post: The fic, little sequel snippets, the thing that started it all and the... reviews?
Links to all individual chapters (and yes, the art is by me, I’ve been told I should stop being shy about it), but they will also take you straight to Ao3:
And if you would like a little snippet of the sequel (it doesn’t give away any major plot points), here’s one:
And here's the drabble/poem-like something that started out as a Writerly prompt and ended up inspiring something that has been taking over (part of) my life:
And now I’ll really flog the goods and give you a couple of comments (no one ever reads these fic advertisements anyway, so I might as well be shameless 😂):
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
There are something like 200 comments on 80 comment threads on TLoS. I’m so grateful for everyone who was on this journey with me, and above all: engaged. Because half of this means nothing if there's no one to share it with.
Some of you are on here (you know who you are), but I just wanted to say that this was really the best part for me, and what I look most forward to for the sequel:
Being in that space with you 💕

Have you ever gotten so invested in a thread?
Have you ever let your drafts build up?
From this ask meme
I'm shit at talking to people in the DMs because I'm an awktato so when I get hell hype about a thread or ship or whatever, then I'm usually just putting a little //ooc tag on the bottom of the post. I did have a noir crime thread with Knox (Cillian Murphy FC) that seemed like it was going to be fucking amazing that was dropped and I was like damn it! I was watching old noir films to get muse for it and everything. Then there's just the general lore of writing knowing that the universe I've created with someone is immense and super detailed so we can include a bunch of other muses and create this epic story where there's love, friendship, angst, etc. and we have to have charts to keep up with everything. I'm forever grateful that @uncontrolledhavoc wrote a camping trip gone wrong with our massive MC and that @marimelwrites and I have this three or four generation family that other people now write with those muses (the Cartwrights and Delmores)... I'm probably too invested in 90% of my threads. I have a hard time not taking it personally if things are dropped, but I get over it... especially because I know y'all are good people with lives AND you put up with me only being able to write on weekends. I'm just a stupid head 😂
I don't have a choice. LATE July to LATE May I work 60+ hour weeks and can only write on weekends. It's why I have a limit on how many replies people can do to me per day because I don't want to spend my weekend drafting replies, but yeah, I'm slow and they build up. It doesn't mean I don't love you. If you see your tab on the activity page is incorrect after a week, please DM me the link.

location: outside the library
With spring finally peeking it's way through the trees, Link could stop sticking half his body out of windows when he was craving a cigarette, now able to step outside fully and let the weather cause his cheeks to turn red.
"You need a light?" He'd barely noticed who had approached him out of the corner of his eye. "My need to steal lighters at every gas station across the United States is really coming in handy lately."

"I kind of want to see if I can't take a road trip across Europe," Link had been trying to climb a tree, more than sure he was making an idiot of himself in front of Odie, but he didn't care that much - she already knew he was an idiot. "I miss that part of my old life back in America. But it seems like it's a weird thing to do here." He tilted his head back to look at her. "Would you come with if I did?"

'In 2018, an interview with Oppenheimer director Christopher Nolan went viral — possibly because it was the first time he’d ever appeared relatable. In that conversation, he said his children sometimes jokingly call him Reynolds Woodcock, after the aloof, reserved protagonist of Paul Thomas Anderson’s Phantom Thread. Though Nolan’s scripts often feature signature, repeated (and often mocked) tropes, including time manipulation, dead spouses, and protagonists who face complex moral decisions, he injects very little of his own personality into his movies. Characters like Leonardo DiCaprio’s troubled team leader in Inception and Robert Pattinson’s equally troubled handler in Tenet are clearly styled after Nolan himself. But viewers rarely come away from Nolan movies with a greater understanding of his worldview, at least compared to the way directors like Martin Scorsese or Quentin Tarantino put their personalities on screen in every movie they make.
One underappreciated idea does recur over and over in Nolan’s work, though, and it surfaces again in Oppenheimer. The protagonists of many Nolan films become obsessed with a specific fear and go to great lengths to better understand or control their terror. In Nolan’s first blockbuster, Batman Begins, gangster Carmine Falcone (Tom Wilkinson) tells Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale), “You always fear what you don’t understand.” The quote acts as something of a guiding light not just for Bruce, but for Nolan’s back shelf of protagonists who seek a deeper knowledge of their phobias for the sake of control. In Oppenheimer, Nolan imprints this narrative device on a historical figure for the first time, and it feels like he’s being more open than ever about revealing what keeps him up at night.
There is no evidence that J. Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb, struggled with frightening visions of high-energy subatomic particles. This doesn’t come through in any documents about Oppenheimer the man, and Nolan seems to have added the idea to dramatize the film, as Oppenheimer periodically pauses to register and recoil from flashes of light, particles, and fire, all representing wordless fears he can’t explain. Though the movie’s dialogue never explicitly references these mysterious events, Nolan’s evocative imagery asks the audience to fill in the gaps themselves — are we seeing what’s in his mind, his future, or something else entirely?
Nolan’s Oppenheimer presents as an awkward, unsociable student with something off about him. It isn’t hard to imagine that he’s troubled by something. And what does this frightful student do? He dives deep into particle physics, devoting his life to understanding and attempting to control his fear — until it reaches critical mass.
The origin story in Batman Begins is the clearest example of this phenomenon: Batman’s vigilante persona was inspired by a traumatic childhood experience with bats. That plot point hews closely to Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli’s classic 1987 comic arc Batman: Year One, but the film dives far deeper into Bruce’s fervent need to understand and control his terror. In a number of sequences featuring fear gas used by the movie’s villain, Scarecrow (played by Cillian Murphy, who also plays Nolan’s Oppenheimer), the filmmaker dips his toes into horror-inflected imagery. The Gothic architecture of Gotham combines with nightmarish sequences where villains see the superhero as a demonic monster, literalizing the metaphor of Bruce becoming his fear.
Following Batman Begins, Nolan’s Batman movies continue to dwell on this theme. Nolan assaults his protagonist with a series of villains who take on the shape of new nightmares. It’s as if he’s trying to teach Batman how to overcome the things he most dreads.
In addition to Bruce Wayne, the two protagonists Oppenheimer most resembles in this way are Leonardo DiCaprio’s Dom Cobb in Inception and Guy Pearce’s Leonard Shelby in Memento. The latter, Nolan’s mainstream breakthrough, focuses on a man with short-term memory loss who is so afraid of forgetting his purpose that he has it tattooed on his body. A significant portion of Inception takes place within Cobb’s dreams, which, through a very thinly veiled metaphor, are haunted by his wife Mal, played by Marion Cotillard. Guilt-ridden by the circumstances of her death, he subconsciously creates a murderous avatar in the shape of the shame he’s too afraid to face. He wrestles for control within his memory, attempting to hide her in a symbolic (and literal) basement in his mind. It doesn’t exactly work out.
Throughout Oppenheimer’s three-hour run time, Cillian Murphy’s protagonist struggles with existential horrors that are much larger than his personal regrets. In addition to the frightening visual bursts of atomic space, the film focuses most of its second-act tensions on the threat that the first atomic bomb test might ignite the hydrogen in Earth’s atmosphere. In real life, that threat was discussed and dismissed by the physicists at Los Alamos. But Nolan lingers on it, sending Oppenheimer to get the opinion of Albert Einstein, who acts as a sort of patron saint of science in the film. But Einstein provides no comforting answers, which ratchets up the tension and fear felt by characters and audience alike.
The threat of humans bringing about their own extinction is no new ground for Nolan’s films. And that may answer why, exactly, he’s so obsessed with fear and the war for control. In Interstellar, climate change devastates crops with a futuristic, dystopian blight. In his 2020 movie Tenet, an unseen society in the future attempts to reverse the flow of time to stop climate change before it gets out of hand. Between those two movies lies the World War II film Dunkirk, about the struggle for survival against a faceless threat. Though the Nazi presence implicitly hangs over the movie, Dunkirk doesn’t linger on a potential apocalypse in quite the same way as other Nolan movies. But the pervasive dread remains.
The fearsome final minutes of Oppenheimer drive this point home, as Nolan gives his protagonist a vision of a future devastated by nuclear apocalypse. His visions of dancing particles and flames give way to a clear, unambiguous doomsday — an uncountable number of rockets fire from an unknown country, streaking across the globe and detonating. Fire consumes everything.
Nolan’s devotion to the theme of people wrestling with their fears ties him to his protagonists, and his more recent focus specifically on humanity causing its own doom ramps that fear up to a universal level. It’s a heavy, existential worry, but it’s an illuminating glimpse into the mind of an artist who rarely lets the audience in. In his films, when a character obsesses about a topic, it typically means that’s the fear that keeps them up at night and drives them toward obsession as a means of control. Both Nolan and his iteration of J. Robert Oppenheimer are exposing their fears that humanity has the power to devastate life on Earth. And as climate change and political tensions simultaneously rise across the planet, it’s hard to blame him.'

NONE of the New Leaf agents have commented on the mess that has happened, and a bunch of their retained clients are deflecting the issue (and using their marginalization as a shield)??
None of the agents have commented publicly on Twitter, but just today, Publishers Marketplace posted an article about the whole thing with comments from agents at New Leaf, Erin Murphy, and Harvey Klinger.
Here's the article, but it's behind a paywall, so I'll gladly share screenshots:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I know PM doesn't necessarily claim to be an objective journalistic source but I do think it's hilarious how they have so many quotes from the literary agents trying to save face, and absolutely no commentary from the authors who were screwed over, not even so much as a link to the many twitter threads.
That said, re: the second part of your ask - I don't think it's fair to blame the authors who were not dropped for the actions of their agents. They are also in a position in this industry of having very little power compared to agents who can greatly impact their career. I mean, yeah, it might be a good show of solidarity for the remaining authors to speak out, but I also completely understand that they were also put in a terrible and scary position by this. So I don't think those authors are who we should be holding accountable - save that energy for the agents and agency heads.

#B3AUCOUP.      fandomless  original character  multi.    written   by   chay    [   he/him   ;    21+    ;    black    ].    characters est as early as  2013.     low    activity.
blogroll: @bnjmin @bingtm @behe4dings @b4rren @komunion
1.  i am selective – edging on private – and i like to keep things mutuals only. my reply speed ranges from half an hour to about a month, and there will be times where i reply to certain threads over others. i don’t use a thread tracker or anything i mostly just rely on going through my notes so if you think i forgot smth/dropped a thread, hmu so i can reply or write you another starter.
2. pre-established relationships of the non-romantic variety are always welcome, even without any prior plotting. if we’re shipping romantically, i ask that you be 20+ for my own comfort.
3. no tolerance for racism/anti-blackness, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, misogyny, fatphobia, pedophilia, ableism, etc.
4. i have no issue with suggestive themes, but anything explicit will probably be kept off the dash or to headcanons.
5. i have no issue with people reblogging things from me like memes, text posts, etc. i only ask that you follow any designations under edits i may make (such as “mutuals or writing partners only”) and that you don’t interact with threads that aren’t yours.
6. i tag triggers as      TRIGGER //     and i will read the rules of anyone that i form a mutual with to make sure i tag any triggers explicitly mentioned. this blog and character in general deals heavily with things like DEPRESSION, ILLNESS, DRUG AND ALCOHOL USE, MEDICAL TRAUMA, ETC. if any those things trigger you, i’d advise against following this blog, because most of it is untagged.

@yugalabs under SEC probe. On Oct. 11, ACTO #Bloomberg, the SEC is investigating Yuga Labs over whether the sale of the digital assets violates the Federal Laws. However, ACTO #CoinTelegraph, this probe is a part of the ongoing SEC probe into the NFT market, since March 2021. Furthermore, #Anonewsco alleged that Yuga Labs's @BoredApeYC is using esoteric symbolism in BAYC’s art. It claimed this is an indication of the company’s support for numerous controversial subjects, such as Nazism, racism, simianization and pedophilia. [Source: Cointelegraph] On June 24, 2022, the founder @GordonGoner denied similar claims and explains it in his Medium article below. ✒️ Link below. 📊 Impact of SEC's probe on Yuga labs' Ecosystem [exclude Punk & Meetis] 🚀 The news had almost no effect on the @Yugalabs' Collection till date. 🚀 On OCT 11 @BoredApeYC PF : 75.5 Ξ & Vol : 474.4 Ξ 🚀 #MAYC w PF : 14.15Ξ & Vol: 240.2Ξ [Source: NFT Price Floor] 📊 Check out the Price Floor of Yuga labs' other NFT Collection. 📊 @apecoin plunged almost -12% on OCT 11 after the SEC's announcement. 📣 Biden's recent statement on America entering into "Slight Recession" acted like a catalyst, 📣 Quick peep into the APE Ecosystem 🔷 Bored Ape Yacht Club started w 10K #PFP NFT collection created by Yuga Labs that was released on 4-22-2021. 🔷 Almost after 4 months, on 8-29-2021 Yuga labs released 20k Mutant Ape Yacht Club PFP NFT collectible. 🔷 Half of MAYC was sold in public Auction while the rest airdropped to BAYC holders on certain conditions. 🚀 Almost after 1 year, Yugalabs introduced @OthersideMeta with 100K digital items. 🔷 The super hyped #Otherside #NFT was sold for 305 #ApeCoin that is around $6100 then 🚀 @apecoin is the Utility token to fund the APE Foundation. 🔷 #ApeCoin was distributed to the #BAYCNFT #Hodlers. 🏆 #BAYC has created the History by introducing an utility #NFTcollection for the first time. ✒️ And down the road, it seems that many projects are following the footsteps of BAYC. For instances Campaigns: 🔷 Just like MAYC is to BAYC 🔷 Azukis introduced Beanz 🔷 Clone X announced project Animus and many other PFP projects followed the trend. Doesn't this playbook sounds similar❓ 1. Create a PFP collection 2. Hype it 3. After long enough, airdrop a portion another PFP collection to the #Hodlers and called it "Utility". Summary💊 📌 Since many PFP collections follow the same path of BAYC so if Yugalabs suffers during SEC probe, it may trigger the Murphy Law in the PFP NFT space that will be harmful for the PFP NFT space. That's a wrap.💊 If you like reading such tweet threads please 1. Follow @dareplaygamefi & @Maisnam_Ronan 2. Join our discord: 2. Like & RT to share the tweet

Well yeah, I did get that impression from reading what the crew has to say on a bunch of stuff on the forums, especially since that whole SAVE KQ9 thing, it's all gone to their heads. I once posted that I didnt like the shadows and flame effects and the entire thread was taken off and the forum threatened with a lawsuit. Add that with the fact that the teams more bored people surf the web for posts like this one and then try to shut down sites that even hint the game might stink. many TSL people were either fired or quit due to issues with the team. Just know there was an original kq9 project worked on called "It takes two to tangle" and. nothing was wrong with kq7!!! it was like kq4!! just new! I loved the art style in kq7 it was like vampyre story without being as dark!įor more facts based on this subject lemme know in pm. I have alot of info that I cant discuss or TSL might come here and tell telltale to shut down the forum. They literally raped stole and pillaged to get where they are, and are a bunch of kid jerks unlike telltales awesome crew.Īnyway its a personal inside view. Stay awaaaay from César Bittar and the TSL project. Without causing a massive war just know even Scott Murphy who was backing TSL is now. shrewd and dont care about anyone or anything but themselves. Sorry I have to say this right now but the TSL crew. As you switch between the databases to uncover new details, an extensive sci-fi story unfolds. As the plot develops, you acquire accompanying information by accessing eleven additional databases - for example a historical archive, military files or social backgrounds. The story of the boy Peter Devore, his incredible discovery and the mysterious portal are told by an AI named Homer, who reconstructs it piece by piece out of database fragments. Portal is a unique attempt of creating and adapting a novel specifically for the computer. The answer must lie deep in its database. Between the decaying remnants of civilization, you discover a terminal for Worldnet, the global network that recorded all human activities. Where are all the humans? Upon returning from your 100 year voyage in the milky way, you find earth empty and abandoned. One of my all time favorites is Portal from Acitvision on the Amiga, although not a typical point and click adventure. Generally if you don't have a nice local store you might want to buy new stuff via Amazon and old stuff via eBay. I don't have so much time to dig them all out now but here are two links which might help you: Only played the Runaways and well nothing to get excited about.Īnd and and.there are so many. I didn't like part one and never played part two but others say that Dreamfall is much better. The bigger the number the worse they got. Part 1 is one of the best adventures ever made! The others are good to okayish. TTG helped out on the concept of Ankh 1, right? If you buy Ankh then watch out for the gold version as this package contains both, Ankh 1 Special Edition and Ankh 2. O Ankh 1+2 (Ankh 1 is also available for osx and linux (ported by ), Ankh 2 will be ported too.)
