I Just Hate The Heat

i just hate the heat

FUCKING HATEEEEEEEEEEEE FANDOM. like i love fandom but i HATE FANDOM. HARROWHARK IS NOT YOUR PATHETIC WET CAT SHE’S NOT A GREMLIN SHE’S NOT YOUR LITTLE MEOW MEOW. STOP IT RN. SHE’S AN INCREDIBLY CAPABLE NECROMANCER AND AN AMAZINGLY INTELLIGENT PERSON WHO JUST HAPPENED TO BE PUT IN AN INCREDIBLY TOUGH SITUATION. she’s fucking 18 y’all. she did what she could and do you know what? she did well for being completely out of her depth and EIGHTEEN GOD FUCJING DAMMIT. i hate it when characters get boiled down to one fandomable aspect of themselves especially in a fandom with such prolific writers and artists (that’s you!) it literally happens with every character. ianthe is not your cool suave boyfriend she’s a desperate young woman. pyrrha is not your dom mommy she’s just been put into a situation where she is surrounded by children. dulcie? guess what: she exists. gideon isn’t a golden retriever silly boy she’s a complex and capable person. gideon the first isn’t some angry dog he’s loyal to his brother that killed him twice over. paul is a cool and interesting character that i want to see more of. I FUCKING HATE THE FANDOMIZATION OF CHARACTERS JESUS CHRISTTTTTTTTTTT KILL ME NOWWW ACTUALLY GOINT INSANE. anyway rant over sorry i dont have any friends that have read tlt so i have to resort to going insane on anon

this was a fun surprise to receive. that aside i Do agree with you it seems very much like the nature of fandom to fall into stereotypes and tropes for characters because its easier to make content when there is a type of script to follow + its more effort to always dissect things and rebuild them for every au scenario. alas everything is always nicer when you can make your own little circle of people to discuss with

i respect the hell out of tasmuir character work but don't fully understand it and that's exactly the reason why i do not read and write fiction for the locked tomb.

it goes like this: i read book. i digest. i scream into the sky. i go on my phone to commiserate with other people who were personally victimised by her writing. i open ao3. read the premise for fic. go "nope" and close the tab. i open the note app on my phone to write. i try to grasp what exactly makes gideon gideon and harrow harrow. i fail.

i am used to characters made up of two maybe three layers. like a cake, there are tiers and the most i had consumed had like, three things going on.

gideon is a fucking monstrosity of 55 tier cake with different fillings and covered in frosting. harrow is worse. camilla is unknowable for me like macarons or shu. palamedes barely makes sense. how the fuck do i make you, i scream when trying to write a single fucking au post, like i am making souffle instructed by french pastry website. the recipe requires me to get WHAT? what else do you want besides saffron, my fucking blood?

office siren kevin….all the blood has gone from my brain and has rushed to my-

kevin can yuo. bend over and get this filefor me

...you know, jean has the means to take over in absence of riko and kevin too.

he's the number three in the court, he's a property of moriyamas, sure, but so is kevin. he plays excellently when beaten everyday. remove riko as an active threat to his wellbeing that he can't remove and what does that leave? tetsuji would beat the hell out of him, sure, but he did that to riko when he overstepped too. tetsuji does not give a shit about dynamics as long as the team provides the results.

the obstacle for jean's takeover is the grayson and rape that keeps circulating among the rumors. if jean eliminates grayson as the only one rapist left on the team and somehow extinguishes the rumors, he has a free run.

I don't think he would want to be the captain though. too much exy bullshit. but being the captain would mean there's no one higher than him on hierarchy=no one to hold power over his head aside from tetsuji.

I feel like fox AU's where Kevin and riko leave to Palmetto together are Jeans villain origin.

Those two fuckers who shaped his life into what it is now dare to just say actually bye and fuck off???? Just like that ?????

He will hunt them for sport if you thought Riko was bad wait for Jean as he takes over nest. Fucking holiday break but it's Jean dragging them back to evermore

i love them your honor
