me, a fanfic writer: *painstakingly untangles the character from the narrative*
me: there you go
me: be free
character: *takes one step and immediately gets trapped in the narrative again*
me:

In one of my film classes last semester we had to tell a story in 3 pictures for a mini assignment so my friend and I did this
Happy 10 year anniversary to this post!
a villain who commits crimes because they want to impress the hero and get their attention but they don't know how to flirt like a regular person
them: i just don't understand it. last week i airlifted an entire bus full of tourists to the top of a skyscraper and rigged every floor with fun, non-lethal booby traps. i wore my best cape, my tightest black leather pants AND i added 5 more flirty winks and seductive smirks to my monologue. how could i possibly have been more obvious?
their minions: have you considered just... talking to them?
them: have i what now

You know what I love? Characters who rally against fate.
Main characters who, when told their destiny, throw up a big middle finger to fate and fuck right off to change that shit. Friends of main characters who go “hell naw we ain’t doing this” and drag the main character somewhere else. Characters who fight prophecies, who are ready to throw down when told what they have to be or do, who go out to make their own destinies. Characters who refuse to be or do what they’re supposed to because there’s no way in hell they’re gonna lose somebdy or be some sort of sacrificial lamb.
Because, in the end, even if things end up the same, even if the prophecy was right in some way, there’s something so incredibly human in deciding that the world can’t tell you what to do.
