\o/ All the gusto! All the things! If they have a problem with it, they will tell you! or they just won't reply as quickly BUT THAT'S OKAY! Because! Posting all the things make the happy chemicals! Be fun! Be fast! Be you!

some rules are made to be bent lol

agreed that displaying and communicating what you find uncomfortable as a writer should be respected by all parties involved. sometimes people don't know what triggers them until it's right there in front of them and then they can say that they're uncomfortable and would like to try something else. something like that should be respected. 10/10


edit: -like 3 replies happened while i was typing this T.T-

as for the whole... character thing upwards a bit.

despite the fact that, yes i am the writer, im also not going to change a character's whole personality to fit a situation. i tend to write inspirationally as well like rabbit does, and i do assume as much responsibility as i can with my characters, but they do have their own personalities, their own thoughts, their own feelings, about whatever situation they are in. as a writer, it is my responsibility to uphold the voice that they would have if they were a real person. i always find it annoys me in shows/movies/books where a character's wants/needs/feelings do a 180 and do things they wouldn't usually do in situations involving a love interest or a sudden loss or something. sometimes its justified as a reasonable response to trauma, other times you can tell the show writers just had to introduce a love interest.

take the show Wednesday for example. Wednesday Addams has always been an Ace symbol as far back as I can remember, and yet here she is, forced into something she clearly had no interest in simply because all shows need a love story. it was weird and not true to the character. as writers, it is our responsibility to take accountability for the actions of our characters if it comes to it, but it is not our responsibility to mold characters to fit a certain narrative.

ohhh i forgot that came out. i shall have to watch it.

i was not prepared for 82 degrees in the middle of april...

my characters come up with plot before I even think about it... I'm not the one in charge here lol
