Discovering Hopepunk

Did y'all know that the best thing in the world is friends who teach you new words? Because it's thanks to a friend close enough to be a brother that I have a word for what Naomi Novik's incredible Scholomance trilogy is. Time to meet hopepunk.

Hopepunk is brand-spanking new on the literature scene, and the term itself is attributable to author Alexandra Rowland, who coined the term in 2017. Collins English Dictionary picked it up in 2019, which is how you know it had enough traction to be legit.

So what is the definition of hopepunk? Rowland described it as "the opposite of grimdark" that is composed of "one atom of justice, one molecule of mercy, and the empire of unsheathed knives." Collins Dictionary is a little more precise in their definition: "A literary and artistic movement that celebrates the pursuit of positive aims in the face of adversity."

Novik's Scholomance trilogy begins with the world's deadliest boarding school and concludes with the truth of how a maw mouth is made, and all of those elements should objectively combine into a grimdark trilogy. And yet. El, her himbo hero, and kickass girlsquad refuse to go quietly into darkness and despair. They embody hope, resilience, and resistance to the toxic social order they have been raised I and are expected to perpetuate if they survive graduation--and that is the furthest thing from a guarantee.

El's journey from furiously pissed-off outcast and loner to Golden enclave crusader is never not compelling, and the insistent kindness for its own sake and radical hope that spits in the face of literal monsters in the literal walls means that hopelessness never touches this narrative. Sometimes things are *really bad* but it wouldn't be a story otherwise. The difference is that while George RR Martin is determined to beat the hope out of both his characters and his readers, Novik and El will beat it into you if they have to.

Is it just me or does every superhero “deconstruction” other than Invincible remove magic and aliens from the equation?

I finally checked out Strong Female Protagonist, and I was wondering what seemed off to me because it’s got good writing so far… and then it I realized that every superpowered person is basically a mutant like the X-Men.

Worm, The Boys, Watchmen, Powers… all of them omit magic and/or aliens, two CRUCIAL aspects of superhero worlds as defined by DC and Marvel!

And I think because it’s just too hard for most people to reconcile these inherently fantastical things with trying to do a “realistic” story.

i fell into a rabbit hole of old nd stevenson comics / writing while looking for a specific quote, and i was reading about him hanging out with his now wife molly ostertag and her friends after a toronto comic convention (linked here; warning that the article is pretty old and uses his deadname) and i realized something…

is that… brennan lee mulligan in his tony pepperoni t-shirt

(for those who don’t know, molly and brennan co-created the comic strong female protagonist)

#brennan lee mulligan #nd stevenson #molly ostertag #strong female protagonist #it could easily be any other friend of molly’s but the thought made me chuckle #i don’t normally speculate on real life like this but the mint milano’s story is one BLeeM’s told so many times #that the connection was easy to make #but it kinda warms my heart #it reminds me of that story about how nd ended up in the wtnv crew’s hotel room at dashcon

Watching love to hate you and just feeling completely cringed out at the weird ''not like other girls'' rhetoric they have going for Mi-Ran.

Like I like her character so much. She has very valid reasons for not liking men, and as the show goes on, she is validated through it. She has seen women she knows and doesn't know be abused, hurt, and outright disrespected by men, and so is wary of them.

Kang Ho's character, however, is not quite as clear. Bro hates women because his ex broke up with him in a bad way, and so just is downright misogynist to every woman he meets calling them gold diggers?

Then they have the audacity to put in what is meant to be a cute relationship moment his inside monologue basically saying that every other woman is a backstabbing gold digger who is dumb and selfish but NOT HER?! Like WTF?! She's NOT LIKE OTHER GIRLS?! Be so fr rn.

Are we as an audience meant to like him? Like I'm asking this for real. Because every time I try to do so, he says something so blatantly misogynistic that I want to reach through the screen and slap him. And we are also meant to believe that the biggest feminist Mi-Ran would date someone who so openly disregards other women as weak and selfish? And accept her role as the exception to his hatred of women. As if!

Raccoon's downfall (Leon Kennedy x-reader)(Introduction)

I hope you guys, enjoy! (^.^)

Warnings: mature content, descriptions of blood & gore, zombies, death, & violence.

(Y/n) swiftly pushes the steel double doors ahead of her open with some difficulty as she continues to race down another narrow corridor located on the second floor of the underground "Hive" facility from which she just escaped. She can still feel the virus those disgusting scientists working under Albert Wesker's command injected her with rushing throughout her veins, and her loud heartbeat is so fast that it almost drowns out the unnerving echo of the undead chasing after her.

She immediately cusses under her rigid breathing as she realizes that's too many turns and twists for her to search the building for an actual entrance to Raccoon city in her current situation. She immediately wishes that the accidental bite mark she had gotten from helping her father with an infected earlier had killed her or that Albert Wesker had shot her in cold blood instead of her father.

But even now, after going against the Umbrella corporation and rejecting her father's career choice only a short time ago, she knows that she made the right decision much too late now. She realizes that the virus will spread like wildfire throughout Raccoon City. Her home city will be overrun with infected and everyone must choose to fight for their own survival or join the infected by inexperience in common sense and defense.

The charging footsteps along with the inhuman sound effects directly behind her grow louder as if the zombies could easily overtake her at any given moment, her usual unfazed demeanor finally surfacing to reasonable terror.

She doesn't want to be killed in such a gruesome way by Umbrella's illegal experiments. That idea is very unfair and completely absurd. Albert Wesker had forced her father and herself to continue working on his project, despite the corporation telling him otherwise. He's responsible for everything happening right now and he'll most likely enjoy watching Raccoon city's downfall too!

(Y/n) swiftly turns to her left to find an emergency exit with a staircase leading to some sort of back alleyway to Raccoon city as she finally notices the main building's alarm going off. Suddenly, a large group of men and women wearing lab coats come from the other various exits in a hurry to no doubt get away from the infected. She sleathly blocks herself against the nearby wall while the herd that was once chasing her focuses their attention on those people instead.

She watches the infected attack some of her remaining co-workers for a few seconds as the hallway erupts into chaos with screams and cries of agony. She immediately turns her head away from the disturbing scene, pushing the steel door to the emergency exit open with a shaking hand. She quickly charges through the doorway and begins rushing down the flight of stairs leading to the back alleyway.

She runs down them, hoping that the virus or the infected haven't quite made it outside of the facility yet. She braces herself by glancing over her shoulder at what appears to be an empty staircase as the steel door closes shut behind her with a loud crash, locking it from the inside. There are no more footsteps or the infected coming after her for now. For now, she is safe. For now, she is alone.

(Y/n) finally reaches the last flight of stairs located on the side of the main building as she sprints through another steel door leading into what looks like a small storage room. The dim lighting of the single lightbulb hanging from the discolored ceiling casts a faint light on the cramped area, storage boxes and random junk piled up in a corner nearby.

She quickly scans over the discarded mess in search of anything useful, before grabbing a flashlight hiding between some boxes. She slips the object into a side pocket on her college backpack and turns her focus on the only remaining exit left.

She blows her long (h/c) bangs away from her emotional (e/c) eyes as she hears the final downfall of the Umbrella corporation's employees falling prey to the virus they created. They deserve to be reanimated as the terrible creatures they made after dying from such a brutal death. She still feels like her fate should be the same, but everything that's happened to her has been quite the opposite.

She immediately makes a vow to fix the problem she unintentionally released on Raccoon city in any way possible for the sake of her deceased father as she shifts the metal case containing the cure against her shoulder-blades.

(Y/n) quietly pushes the dented steel door leading into the alleyway open as she cautiously steps outside, scanning the area for any possible dangers. She immediately spots a pallet jack attached to a dumpster nearby and uses it to block the door.

She finally notices the faint echo of paws scraping against the concrete while realizing the set of organized dog cages placed at the end of the alleyway are practically gnawed to death. She hesitantly glances in the direction of the animalistic sound effects, her (e/c) gaze locking onto the disturbing scene of a zombie dog eating the remains of an Umbrella employee.

She shakes her head in disbelief at how fast the virus is spreading throughout Raccoon city as she carefully sneaks toward the fenced door leading away from the alleyway. She immediately grabs a crowbar sticking out of a large barrel nearby, slipping the metallic object behind the rusty hinge attached to the door.

She swiftly pries it open with some difficulty as the loud popping sound instantly alerts the dog. The animal suddenly bolts toward her, its bloodstained teeth bared viciously in rage, before lunging at her with a snarl.

(Y/n) dodges the zombie dog entirely by swiftly rolling to the other side of the fence and shutting the door right in its mutated face. It continues coming after her nevertheless, its slender yet agile body hitting the fence repeatedly. It bites at her hand that's keeping the door closed as she notices a handgun tucked into the holster on the waist of the deceased Umbrella employee.

She cusses under her breath for what she has to do next before brutally stabbing the zombie dog in the head with the crowbar. She drops the metallic object sticking through the fence almost immediately as the animal falls to the concrete. She pushes herself back up to her feet with the support of the fence, the once closed door slowly creaking open.

She cautiously re-enters the alleyway as she observes the mangled corpse of what used to be one of her father's co-workers. She frowns at how awful his death must have been, closing his lifeless widened eyes in respect. She instantly takes the handgun from the holster on his waist and loots his clothes for bullets before she can change her mind.

She swiftly stands to an upright position as she covers her face with her arm to gather what composure she has left, stepping a few paces away from the body. She checks the handgun's magazine to see how many bullets are in it before popping it back in place.

(Y/n) puts the extra case of bullets into her collage backpack as she casually takes off her bag and places it on the concrete. She slips her bloodstained lab coat off of her shoulders, discarding the evidence that she ever worked for Umbrella in the first place.

She readjusts her (f/c) tank top while fixing her (h/c) locks into a more appropriate hairstyle for her current situation. She picks her backpack up once more after taking the safety off of the gun and begins heading toward what she hopes is an undestroyed city.
