After my latest fic chapter I feel compelled to remind people who have never read the SGE books that Clarissa Dovey (whose ideology and behavior I did not alter) is supposed to be a good guy. She is the benevolent, motherly mentor figure. We are supposed to like her very much.
In related news: The School for Good and Evil is the single largest case of authorial "oh shit I forgot all my world building when it came time to do the story framing" I have ever seen in all of media.
#house md#hatecrimes md#fanfiction#school for good and evil#clarissa dovey#clarissa dovey is terrible and i will die on this hill#This is based on the books#The movie seems to not have the homophobia part of the worldbuilding so this does not apply to movie Dovey#SGE is also my favorite failed retcon example#Judging by the framing the author clearly didn't realize the homophobic implications of the writing when he wrote it#So in the companion book (book 3.5) he tried to fix it#But he did that by saying that Agatha (whose arrival is around 12 years after my fic setting) got Dovey to change the policy#And now people of the same gender can go to the Ball together#It's an extremely throwaway line whereas Agatha's other virtues are highlighted#So we're not supposed to look at this issue to hard--ergo retcon not “thing Agatha was always supposed to have done”#But it doesn't work as a retcon because IT CONFIRMS THAT THE SLAUGHTER OF GAY STUDENTS DEFINITELY HAPPENED#So the author does not exonerate Dovey at all#Though of course after confirming she killed the gay students who couldn't fit in the closet he still tried to make us like her in book 4#Because no one does scattershot story construction like SC#SGE is my love to hate book series I will not apologize

people trying to insist a fandom is tiny when it /only/ has a few thousand works on ao3 meanwhile my current fandom is a sixteen book series and has several hundred fewer works than goncharov, a movie that, and i cannot stress this enough, doesn’t even exist
#measuring the size of fandoms based on their goncharov index#this has been a useless text post you may now resume your normal programming#rote has a goncharov index of 0.63#for perspective ofmd has an index of 26.5#spn's is 360.8#the cosmere is 2.26 for a fantasy book comparison#i am very normal#post

just a lot of the axolotl :] and that bitchass triangle
#edit: this isn’t billford👍 i was honestly moreso expecting people to think this was axobill. it’s not that either but still#the art gallery#gravity falls#the book of bill#also design for the orb of healing light :] yea it’s based on an ophanim. I am not thr first person to have this idea but I tried to ma#tried to make it original#the visual of Literally An Angel wearing a lanyard was just really funny to me

can't believe that skeleman has turned on us, and Halloween Prom is tomorrow.
(what a top-tier UM...we are about to be just totally obliterated in the absolute silliest way. what possible use could this power have outside of bringing us to the brink of utter holiday disaster.)
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#lost in the book with nightmare before christmas#hajimari no halloween#unique magic posters#this was so unforseeable!#i hope malleus gets pumpkinified immediately and sebek has to carry him around on a little velvet cushion#i hope jade puts his plant knowledge to good use by being extremely judgy about the firmness of everyone's rind#i hope that everyone is still wearing their silly little hats as pumpkins#(i know they won't. but if we don't have hope we have nothing.)#and i'm still feeling like oogie's gotta show up later and menace jamil just by existing#perhaps we'll have to team up against him with the scullsman or something 👀#also just to get it out before being proven entirely wrong#my theory is still that he's from the past and we gotta teach him about the True Meaning of Halloween (aka candy and funtimes)#so he can go back to his own time and become the founder of modern-day candy and funtimes halloween or something#bootstrap paradox be damned#i could be entirely off-base but that's what i'm thinking right now#idk he just has the vibe of an old-timey boy to me#he's had the great misfortune of being born before there were hot topics where he could meet other jack skellington fanatics#too late for the black plague too early for the black parade 😔

I don't care how excited it might make some people, I don't like this remake
#no heart. no effort. no soul. it looks animated everytime cinematic scenes of Berk or the dragons shoe up what was the poiiint#httyd 2025#aweful set and costumes. barely any cool details. dry emotions. no man i hate it#httyd live action#httyd#how to train your dragon#the only good thing this is bringing that it's giving me a chance to wipe the memory of thw from my mind#lf btw. look at the fur detailson gobber's vest and also the lighting#in these screencaps#try and compare this to whatever the hell they're doing with the remake. is any of it present? no#it looks vooler and better in the animated medium#amd it would've looked good in live action if it wasn't a remake and had good artwork done with some heart to it#like. i can actually imagine a live action httyd looking amazing but not as a remake but as a book adaptation#with changed perspectives and story and cinematography#hey can't replicate the masterpiece#and you know what pisses me off even more?#They based Toothless on his THW model. not even the first movie's model#his movements are all so... wrong

Fiddleford in disbelief that he got cucked by a triangle is funny but him being as much as a freak as Ford is funnier
#gravity falls#book of bill#bill cipher#ford pines#stanford pines#billford#fiddauthor#fiddleford mcgucket#Stan: why do you attract all the weirdos#based off that one scene with Mabel and the manatee#when ur name is fiddleford and you never got to fiddle Ford😔#bill is in his padded cell flipping the camera off but it’s hard to tell
