hey, so, yes.
I am having a lot of Thoughts about this blog and where I am in my life, and I’m like, yes, it is a very honest depiction of myself through a certain period, but I’m not sure if that’s who I… want to… be, I guess, in the minds of people who might be seeing the archives, or something.
I pretty much think I want to move to a new one and [possibly? eventually? maybe...

Oh yeah, Mari.
Mari is like concentrated crack.
Pretty much everything weird about the second movie happens because of Mari. I’m sure that’s supposed to mean something, possibly about fandom, but it’s honestly just confusing. She doesn’t mesh with ANYTHING. I hope they explain her in the next one.
Maybe it’s framerate? I mean, I can’t tell that Shamshel’s leg-thingies are CGI when they’re paused, it’s mainly that they move much more fluidly from position to position than you really get with traditional animation. So maybe when the fortifications extend, they haven’t corrected the extension to match the very, very slight choppiness of traditional animation...

I don't know how I feel about all the CGI in this...
People on TV Tropes were like, oh, it’s fitting because it makes the Angels look like they don’t quite fit into the world. And I’m like, yeah, but I feel like that would be more effective if this movie was made in an alternate universe where every single person viewing hadn’t already associated “obvious CGI” with “bad CGI” on a purely instinctual...

Karen Gillan totally plays one of the soothsayers in Pompeii. She’s wearing facepaint but it’s so very clearly her it’s kind of absurd.

THE CABDRIVER
I DON’T EVEN
WHAT IS THIS
It is nearly five AM.
If I try to sleep now I’ll just start thinking again.
So I have to completely mentally exhaust myself before I do.
I no longer have enough brainpower to focus.
I’m still not braindead enough to drop off.
Fuck everything.
Billie needs to come home soon.

“Are we robbing them, then?”
Joseph shrugged a shoulder. Depends.
“On what?”
Semantics.
Rafe: JOSEPH TELL HIM I’M NOT A DEPRAVED HOMICIDAL ARM-FETISHIST.
Joseph: I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT BUT IT SOUNDS WEIRD AND CREEPY AND I DON’T WANT ANY PART OF IT.
Found this in a text file in my Rafe folder while looking for something else entirely. I would say “what is this I don’t even” but actually, I do even, it’s just far...

Project: Make RafeDraft Insufferably Pretentious...
I was going to put something about how Rafe’s character arc is too internal and complex for standard chronological storytelling to be effective, but then I realized that’s just hipster speak for “YOUR MAINSTREAM NARRATIVE TECHNIQUES JUST STIFLE MY GEEENIUS HURGHABLURGH *vomits rainbows and present tense*”
So yeah.

NOTE TO SELF
If you really must go find a video of a rabbit screaming*, you may not want to do it on speaker in the same room as your actual rabbits.
*While being carried out of a garage by some perfectly gentle people. It was just confused and not at all harmed DON’T WORRY BILLIE

The trouble with most of my Make This More...
I mean… right, this is by necessity going to involve a lot of in-depth examples so I’ll just put a cut right here for all of your sakes.
One of my old projects (generally referred to as Construct, I absolutely 100% suck at titles forever) has been suffering from… I don’t know how to describe it but it’s something that seems to happen a lot to older writing....

If this whole infernal restlessness/lack of sleep...
Brain decided musings on how re-creepifying Lizzie and the Construct were the best way to lull me to sleep, then woke me back up with HEY you know what RafeDraft needs PRESENT TENSE.

The rabbits are sleeping with each other.
Ophelia has flopped over onto her side (like, completely) and Mo is lying opposite with her legs stretched out, every so often poking her nose over to sniff at Ophelia’s forehead.
okay actually mo moved since I started writing but OH MY GOD THEY’RE NOT TRYING TO MURDER EACH OTHER WHAT EVEN HAS HAPPENED
IF YOU MAKE ME GO BACK UPSTAIRS TO PEE I WILL DIVORCE YOU

[trigger warning: transphobia]
On some level I feel like I should be reading her writing, because technically and stylistically it’s very good, and for all I know the rest of her work is completely unproblematic, but of course, there was that one story.
I’m pretty sure I never went over all this on Tumblr but when I found the story “This Tragic Glass” on her website it...
morethanwhatyouare asked: Is there a name for those who identity themselves as not having a sexuality? I don't mean asexuality. I just mean...not having a sexual orientation because there is no word that could define me.
