Have you seen a Ghibli movie? Ain't NONE of that explained.
"The magic system isn't explained properly" bro as if anyone these days understands how a computer works
#musings#on writing#okay some of it gets explained if it is relevant to the plot#like in howl's#but like#spirited away?#you got this thing from this guy that if they eat it it makes them vomit#you know what you need to know for the plot but like#you do not have to know every intricate detail of everything#magic is a world is a vibe it just IS in those movies#you don't have to know what totoro is or where he comes from or intricate worldbuilding to enjoy totoro#....#this is what i aspire to with#witch hood fic#actually#i want a lot of magic aesthetic around fay and her cottage#around the flowers#i actually really liked how i did this with agatha's cottage in tnos#in that one chapter where reader visited it#sanderson actually talks about this as soft magic vs. hard magic#he uses hard magic where you understand all the rules and exactness and it's more like a science#ghibli is soft magic#both are good!
