it's going to take me a few business weeks to organize my thoughts about "shauna, jackie, and what their use of make-up represents"

I don't get into media that often as an adult because I no longer have the 14-year-old naivety that lets Naruto blow my mind. I still absolutely like getting into media! But my bar is significantly higher. And even the things I genuinely enjoy come with a sort of measured assessment of what areas are maybe a little weak in my opinion, or what aspects don't completely appeal to me.
So actually, I a little bit don't know what to do with myself over the fact that The Silt Verses is just so good. I don't have my usual mental folder of measured critiques. Like at most maybe a one-off plotline here or there that I was only mildly interested in. But that's nothing when I mean like, assessing the over-arching characters, their development, their self-driven character motivation, the evolving dynamics between them, the intricacies of the plot, the way the world breathes, the horrible and ironic and compelling concepts that come to life here, the incredible voice acting, the sound production, the astounding writing--the untouchable quality of the writing.
When I say "The Silt Verses gets better the longer it goes" that's because it's so good at developing its characters and their dynamics and the plot and the stakes. Something exceptional should get better the longer it goes if it's doing these things well.
I listen while cooking and time and time again I need to stop what I'm doing to just... soak in what I've heard. I rewind lines. I'm on episode 40 and every single ongoing character plot compels me. I'm invested in everyone. The dimension to each of the main characters is undoing me. I listen and I go "I cannot imagine writing something this good." What do I do with this. I don't know.

truly some people have no genre savviness whatsoever. A girl came back from the dead the other day and fresh out of the grave she laughed and laughed and lay down on the grass nearby to watch the sky, dirt still under her nails. I asked her if she’s sad about anything and she asked me why she should be. I asked her if she’s perhaps worried she’s a shadow of who she used to be and she said that if she is a shadow she is a joyous one, and anyway whoever she was she is her, now, and that’s enough. I inquired about revenge, about unfinished business, about what had filled her with the incessant need to claw her way out from beneath but she just said she’s here to live. I told her about ghosts, about zombies, tried to explain to her how her options lie between horror and tragedy but she just said if those are the stories meant for her then she’ll make another one. I said “isn’t it terribly lonely how in your triumph over death nobody was here to greet you?” and she just looked at me funny and said “what do you mean? The whole world was here, waiting”. Some people, I tell you.
