Same Same But Different - Tumblr Posts

sometimes, as a fanfic writer, I worry about doing something that's already been done before. there's already a story with this pairing and trope, or this character and situation, etc.
of course, like many other fic readers, I like to see my favorite blorbos falling in love over and over or in the same sexy situations, but just a little differently each time.
it hit me today that it's not just fic readers who do this. you know how there's a gazillion covers of the same christmas songs? look up "have yourself a merry little christmas." there are so many covers. sure, some of them are our favorites, but if that song is a banger, you're going to listen to it performed and recorded in a million ways and still think it's awesome.
so, maybe next time when you're looking for a new fic that features your main idiots in love, pining after each other for the billionth time, and wondering why you do this, just know that there are people who love listening to "grandma got run over by a reindeer" sung by a diversity of voices.
if that's ok, so is reading about your little meow meows being repeatedly emotionally scarred or falling in love. or sharing one bed. or going from enemies to lovers.
the world that has many renditions of" grandma got run over by a reindeer" definitely has room for more stories of your blorbos.

Brad and Chris were like soap opera stars. You could switch them out of a scene, put in new peeps to play the same characters, and for whatever reason, people are ok with that.
Not related at all but every time I hear some big number in competitions like "10,000 applicants" all I can think of is this. Like, just look at this full 12-minute video of all the girls auditioning.. help
It's just so insane knowing that out of all these girls here, just 7 were chosen to be in CLASS:y
Being an idol is serious business, heh. Being in the industry at all, whether you're auditioning or in charge of judging them, is so overwhelming oh my god
