So as I do my final prep work for “Digress Like a 19th Century Novelist Overzealous Cyborg with an Acid-Proof Notebook,” which mainly involves consolidating my essays so I can post to the requisite ao3 collection, it occurs to me that I had perhaps missed an opportunity to be writing all these in character, or some sort of narrative frame (like Herman Melville’s sub-sub librarian / self insert in Moby Dick or the “found” documentation in The Handmade’s Tale)…like an esper breaking the fourth wall seeing into the future or a harried Human Resource worker / Staff Counselor at the Hero Association.

…oh well. There’s always next time, I guess.

#my writing #wilf #(work i’d like to finish)#break the fourth wall not your limiter #most folks came up with some brilliantly integrated pieces and I just think that’s neat #this idea initially came from Les miserables tumblr can you tell?#the brick (book) not necessarily the musical #although we get some really great meta on all adaptations #up to and including shoujo Cosette #not armjoe though #at least NOT YET #I do have a scene with Saitama and king playing something like armjoe #because I know nothing about fight games #and everything about which popular literature characters would win in a fistfight #and this ‘super smash brothers karamazov’ was born
