no no. you don't get it. the reason I injure my blorbos until they can't walk is because that's the only way they'll ever let someone else carry them. the reason I curse them to be sick and feverish is so that they'll finally open up about their emotions while delirious. the reason I force them to overexert themselves to the point of exhaustion is so that when they pass out they can finally rest.

I'm doing this for their own good.

Ever look at a character and “man, I wish the writers didn’t hate you”

get yourself a main character whos two primary emotions are "little cunt" and "catatonic with grief"

if a character means enough to me i will truly never stop thinking about them. i just retire them into a little back room in my brain and periodically bring them out to stare at them under a little light

Character so good one half of the fandom thinks they’re ftm and the other thinks they’re mtf

Whenever I talk about whatever media I’m into at the moment imagine I am presenting the characters to you like this

the need to talk about the characters vs the fear that all of my analysis is just empty prose and surface level understanding

Me 20 seconds after saying anything about my favorite characters:

There should be an equivalent to asking "how's the wife and kids?" that's like "so how's that fictional man of yours doing?"

(gripping the skink with both hands, pale and feverish, sweating and shaking as I look at myself in the mirror) “killing a character is a valid writing choice that can be a crucial plot mechanic and lend beauty and depth to the story as a whole” (wretches up blood into the sink) “even when it’s my favorite character”

I also drew it

characters have to be a little bit awful in ways that you cant defend. its good for the ecosystem. your honor he did do that. He did in fact do that

we need all types of art in fandoms
