the handholding scene always makes me emotional I love it :) also really enjoy how Christine really brings out how Stacked Sun is because I feel like it's not super obvious with 80% of his friends being like 6 foot tall

someone should look into why as soon as afternoon gets there I am so tired regardless of how much I slept or on the amount of coffee I have consumed. Scientific Inquiry should be made

Chat should I do a one-shot thing of the Inky Mystery characters doing the Hidden Treasure exercise I did for group therapy?? (It's fucking heavy, at least one of 'em is gonna leave crying. probably more than one let's be honest)

today on Heeramandi: why is Mallikajaan so hot, why is Rehana(?) so hot, why are Bibbojaan and Lajjo so hot, why the f*ck is Waheeda so terrifying, and why is Tajdar both cute and dumb af in regards to his personal safety

Previous reblog goes just as much for competing takes on a single character or ship as it does different ones competing with each other, imo. I think berating people for getting your blorbo wrong is less likely to get you 'correct' fanworks or analyses and more likely to make people too nervous about messing up to engage with them. I keep running into people with those anxieties and it really sucks.

If a misunderstanding is common it can be frustrating, but unless someone's being bigoted or an ass about it there's nothing morally wrong with that. If you overlook something major you can always just... go over the source material again and handle them better in future works, and the former still might end up as someone's favourite! My own favourite fic makes an assumption that I'll die on a hill against and it still changed my brain chemistry.

This especially goes for more complex characters; the harder one is to understand, the likelier it is that you'll never find clear, indisputable answers to every question you have about them because they may not exist. Even people who post about them like it's a full-time job can't be omniscient.

So wanting to be meticulous is great, but don't let perfect be the enemy of good! I'm saying all of this as someone who struggles with perfectionism myself. If we can apply the 'two cakes' metaphor to everything else about art, why not characterisation too?

actually I would quite like to hear your thoughts on gender philosophy in omegaverse worldbuilding? :3

hm. anon, I fear this is a far larger can of worms than you probably anticipated. I'm going to spare you the worst of it by only giving you a short version, but be careful what you wish for.

I'm also hiding it under a cut because even the short version is embarrassingly long.

I'm hardly a connoisseur of omegaverse content, nor would I consider myself anywhere near an expert. I don't want to speak for all fics as I've admittedly not read many. I did do my master's diss about legal gender recognition, so this is more about gender and philosophically sound worldbuilding than an indictment of any particular writing or story tbh.

the short answer is I find omegaverse worldbuilding really interesting, but I've never fully been able to enjoy it due to the way a/b/o identities tend to have a biological determinist slant to them imo, and tendency for a lack of real world implications of what the omegaverse does to gender and character interactions anywhere outside the bedroom. I'd love to figure out a version that's more inclusive and philosophically/ideologically consistent, both with itself and with my own views on real life gender (basically, I want to make it make more sense, have less biological determinism, and be more inclusive of the wider range of human experiences). this is a big task, and ngl I haven't achieved it and don't anticipate doing so any time soon. I have like, a concept in my head, taking apart all the key pieces and putting them together again but different, but to make it thorough enough would require more effort and time than I have because I'm like, employed 😔

I feel like someday if I ever get invited to a powerpoint night though, this could be It.

trying to remain normal and realistic sooooo bad but internally im like. can't believe im getting poddpapang as the main pairing in a BL series where they're gonna play 30 years old characters on real actual legit television on my screen and a new jimmysea series on top of that in actuality FR
