SO WE KNOW TRACY DEONN WATCHED JJK.

HOW COOKED ARE WE?

Im following the jjk manga right so when i finished BM i was like, yk what idrc who she ends up with i just want the main 5 to STAY ALIVE. (will, alice, nick, bree, sel)

BUT NOW THAT WE KNOW SHE WATCHED JJK... (after shibuya arc was released, we dont know if she follows/read the manga) IF ANYONE OF THEM DIES IM GONNA #$¢€§%×$"

but like i mean if she was gonna kill off alice she would have killed her and not put her in a coma right??? I mean why would you do that just for her not to wake up right?? RIGHT?

im honestly terrified that william might be killed off. But also greatly intrigued in his arc, what do yall think it will be?

ALSO THE OATHBOUND BLURP IN TRACY'S NEWSLETTER (and prolly website not sure) WDYM KIDNAPPED AND MURDERED MERLINS??? DOES THAT INCLUDE LARK?

Im going to tweak

Wait no but what if lark dying is for williams arc / char dev? Like he already lost whitty? (And broke up with his bf)

I just pray for my pookies to stay alive bro... 😭😭

im currently performing a demon summoning ritual to manifest breesel for oathbound wish me luck

Huh… really interesting to read that you think Sel is more trope than character when it seems like that’s how everyone feels about Nick. I have always felt weird about not really being into Sel. We have seen the brooding, dark haired love interest a million times.

Exactly my thoughts. I never really liked that type of character to begin with. I think people don’t see Sel as a trope because 1. they eat that trope up and 2. they think being morally gray means a character has depth. They do not, in fact, have depth. They are all copy and pastes of each other.

I actually rolled my eyes when Sel was first introduced because these characters are so predictable. They all start off hated by the FMC (yet she always ogles him). They all hurt people, including her. But they all also do some nice things which makes them immediately forgivable in the FMC’s and audience’s eyes. For years I’ve been wondering why these characters are so popular in books made for girls in their formative years. Why are we trying to teach them to love men that hurt them?

About Nick, I think he seems like a trope because Deonn wrote him off in order to give Sel a romance arc. He could have had so much more depth than Sel with the identity crisis thing going on, but then the romance Deonn wanted wouldn’t have worked.

I try to write MMCs more like Nick. I will admit it is challenging to create a character who is both nice and compelling, but there are ways to make it work. And we need to make it work. We need more diverse storytelling than falling back on what everyone else is doing, and we need to move past the internalized misongyny that keeps making its way into books made for girls.

I hope the girlies aren’t too mad about this take.
