I think my fic where Xander accidentally becomes a successful novelist (largely without realizing it) is the funniest idea I’ve ever had. This guy started writing little stories to remember their adventures in Sunnydale (his last line in Chosen about “how will anyone even know about this unless we tell them” burrowed itself into my little archivist brain and won’t let go) and posts them online. He unintentionally goes viral. He thinks someone named Simon N. Schuster is leaving him voicemails. He ends up on the New York Times bestseller list.

He doesn’t even realize that everyone else thinks the stories are fiction. Xander is out here writing autobiographical non-fiction but everyone else thinks he’s a weirdly dedicated author that’s really committed to maintaining a Lemony Snicket style pseudonym/persona for the narrator of his novel. There are “Who Is Xander Harris?” articles. No one can dig up much of anything on him because he lived his whole life in a town that got wiped off the map. He keeps rejecting requests for interviews because of his stage fright. At first this drives his publicist absolutely ballistic but it just adds the the air of mystery that’s drumming up book sales so she lets it go.

He only responds to questions over email and only ever responds “in character” as his “novel’s narrator” and this baffles everyone, only adding to the supposed mystery. It’s literally not even Xander actually writing the emails 95% of the time. It’s Dawn. She has appointed herself as “Xander’s representation” even though she doesn’t really know what being someone’s representation means. She printed business cards.

do you guys think ryan had at least 1 second where he received the 7x09 script probably 20 minutes before filming and was like oh... the camera's panning to eddie? Hmmm. maybe tim's cooking. but then he realized tim is not cooking he is actually just making potions with mud and bugs and grass like an insane little girl

lmao why does SEGA keep pushing the sonadow agenda

I mean, I'm not complaining but ???? 👁️👁️ I know what you are

Listen I understand that Webber is the go-to when it comes to the whole “Maxwil adopt a child” phenomenon. It’s classic, it’s simple, it’s logical. It’s cute and opens doors for interesting narratives and discussions on losing one’s humanity or healing from past tribulations. I get it.

But the mandrake route is so much funnier.

Look, reading The Vampire Armand was A Journey (tm) onto itself and I understand conceptually what it's doing etcetcetc

BUT nothing will make me laugh like when Armand was all fucked uppp and asked for the cocaine to sniff it "to confirm it was indeed the evil white powder"

No, I just wanna smell the cocaine to confirm it is indeed cocaine. >.> Yep.

Idk just the imagery had me laughing hysterically. Then explaining the whole book to my worried SO because I was crying when he came in the room. Yes in order to explain that scene I somehow veered into Orthodox trauma and ikons.

uhhhhhhh

[wovenstarlight]

losing my shit because i went to rewatch dramarama mv and realized that at the start they're going "time warping's not allowed do not take any watches from [hyungwon]" like what is hyungwon's fucking motive here he just runs around handing out watches and fucking up the timeline enough that they have to make PSAs about it? they did all that and didn't remember to give him a purpose? he's just like "THE PEOPLE DESERVE TIME TRAVEL TECHNOLOGY" is that it???????? can't stop laughing

[batsinurbelfrey]

bruh-

[pepprs]

ok actually yeah. i really need to do dishes and go to bed and not stay up late mentalillnessposting a little too viscerally on tumblr the night before i facilitate a workshop in front of the literal president of the university and the vp of my division (LOL about that btw. actively shitting my pants.) but oh my GOD. so saying goodbye to lia was actually fine in the moment. neither of us cried and we talked about all the ways we’ll still be in each others lives and reasons we’ll have to interact in the near future. and she gave me an extremely heartfelt thoughtful gift and we left on a very hopeful note and i felt better and content bc there’s still the rest-of-life and we’ll see each other there. but like an hour before that as i mentioned i was HYSTERICALLY sobbing. in full view of people i know AND people i don’t. and i just sat there and sobbed while everything carried on around me. everything carried on around me!!! and i feel like im about to sob again thinking about it.
