Fannish Fest February day 7: Patching a Plot Hole

Prompt from @thepromptfoundry

Okay, so it's not exactly a plot hole, but one of my favorite ever fan-explanations for something is the one concocted by Howl's Moving Castle fans to reconcile the differences between the original novel by Diana Wynne Jones and the movie adaptation directed by Hayao Miyazaki:

The book is how Sophie remembers things, the movie is how Howl tells the story.

What I love about this is that it makes totally sense, and addresses literally every difference between the book and film (except for maybe one, the name change from Michael to Markle, but I think real world linguistic differences cover that one). Sophie has two sisters in the book, but one in the film? That's not important to Howl's narrative here, and frankly he might not be sure which sister is which anyway. Michael is a young adult in the book, but Markle is a child in the film? Well, if he's a teenager, to Sophie who's from a culture where people regularly enter the workforce and begin courting in their teens, of course he's an adult. But to Howl—who we know from the book is a 27 year old from our reality—yeah, no, that's a kid. Howl generally seeming like more of a jackass in the book? Of course he depicts himself in a better light. Omission of Howl being a random rugby playing Welshman from our world? Of course he leaves that out, it's not cool and it's a secret. The thing in the movie where Sophie kinda shifts back and forth in age while under the old-age curse? Howl's POV and awareness of Sophie's true age (and his affection for her) shining through. Every other omitted element, plot thread, and character from the book? Not important to Howl's narrative here. Every added element and difference in aesthetic? Howl believes in rule of cool; let the man embellish.

I love it. And I know I first saw this put forward in a tumblr post but I can't find it—if anyone has that post on hand or knows OP, please @ them with my appreciation for their briliance.

Day 14; Your OTP (or OT3+) from @thepromptfoundry's February prompts

For me this has gotta be an OT3 actually, Bakugou Katsuki/Midoriya Izuku/Todoroki Shouto. What can I say, I just think they're neat.

One of Eda’s enduring joys was that, even with the demise of the original portal, piles of Human stuff somehow still landed in the Boiling Isles. (Eda takes Raine to a garbage pile for date night.)

Day 3 of @thepromptfoundry 's Fannish Fest February: underappreciated characters.

Was just going to do an in-style doodle of Barcus, but was talking with my SO, who didn't realize he's a boy-faced dog, and we touched on how unnerving he would actually look.

So here's some unnerving realistic-ish Barcus.
