#gankutsuou #gankutsuou: the count of monte cristo #you won't see me coming till I strike #it's one thing for The Count 'foreign rich person' to decry the state. but for Edmond. who was vulnerable and deserved protection #but *wasn't* protected and at every turn betrayed by those he should have been able to trust ... this really stuck out to me #anyway #happy 4th of july

ngl posting fics really isn't fun anymore these days, im not even anxious about the complete lack of interaction, which used to make me feel like I was writing shit, now it just...makes me so sad that's it's gotten to that point

#i genuinely dont see the point of SHARING anymore #when most of the times im met with silence or something close to it #reaching the point where i think i might just write those things because i still need to write them #but i won't be posting online #because its really not a nice feeling to see the hit counts go up and get no interaction #as always it makes me feel dumb for being happy to share #anyway i guess it's a mood these days #good job internet you're winning #killing the will of yet another fic writer #and i was happy about soon celebrating my 20 years as a fic writer lol #writing #fic writing

Kingdom Hearts 4 Challenge Day 6: A World to Revisit

Atlantica

(So, I swear all of my posts really aren't meant to be about Kairi. Like, I was going to make this cool manip where it looked like Sora was saving Melody from drowning, but my Sony Vegas refused to open for some reason? So I just decided to post these similar images of Melody and Kairi instead. That being said... while I don't need Kairi to be the one to go to a The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea world if we ever got one--I'd be more than okay with it being Sora--that would be cool. I'd love to see mermaid Kairi, since Kairi is named for the sea. And Kairi's name can even mean "melody." And she has a lot in common with Ariel. I even suspect she was somewhat based on Ariel, but anyway.)

The reason I would want Atlantica is honestly just because I would want a pretty underwater world again with the Unreal Engine graphics. And that can be a world that we've never been to before, like, Atlantis: The Lost Empire. But if we don't get a new one, then I would want an old one like Atlantica here. Plus... even though I don't think this movie is the greatest. At all. I feel like it's okay... and depending on how they handle it, the KH writers could potentially make it better, with what they add to it. Also, I feel like if we go to Atlantica one more time--with better swimming controls, and in an attempt that isn't a musical--we could finally redeem the world. And that would be great to see.

And now, for whatever reason, I'm going to list some other worlds I'd be more than okay with returning (even though I think we were only supposed to list one. Shh.)

Wonderland: But only if the world is expanded and it's a "sequel," via it being based on Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland.

Deep Jungle: I know this will surely never happen, since I know Disney has lost the rights to Tarzan. But on the off-chance they ever got the rights back somehow, I definitely wouldn't mind seeing this world back again, perhaps adapting some of the stories from the TV show, like the stuff with Princess La.

Agrabah: I definitely want to go here one more time and to have the "Aladdin and the King of Thieves" story depicted. (I probably would even prefer this even over Atlantica, actually, even though I want that pretty underwater level). This was one of the better Disney sequels, after all. And Sora most definitely deserves to be there for Aladdin and Jasmine's wedding.

Neverland: I wouldn't be opposed to the second Peter Pan movie being adapted.

The Land of Dragons: I'd be all for us having Mulan II, actually.

The Beast's Castle: I've always wanted "Beauty and the Beast and the Enchanted Christmas." I want to fight Forte. LOL. While I doubt it will happen, for obvious reasons, I feel like they could find a way to do it: like Belle writes Sora and the gang a part of her and the Beast's story that they don't know about (the Enchanted Christmas story) and sends it to them as a gift (maybe even for Christmas?), and once Sora opens it, he somehow gets pulled into said story.

Pirates of the Caribbean: I wouldn't mind a "Dead Men Tell No Tales" world.

The Lion King II: Simba's Pride would be awesome.

I would also kill for Cinderella III: A Twist in Time.

While part of me is loath to mention this one... I feel like no one was completely satisfied with the La Cité des Cloches world in Dream Drop Distance (because of lack of NPCs and that kind of thing). And there is a "The Hunchback of Notre Dame II" that Disney made. Absolutely no one likes this movie, and for good reason. But I don't know... I would be willing to tolerate it, just to see this world in the quality it deserves. And maybe Square Enix could somehow make it better... actually, surely not. But like I said: I could tolerate this just to run around Notre Dame in pretty Unreal Engine graphics.

I know that originally with DDD, the plan was Sora to go to all of the original Fantasia locations and for Riku to go to the ones in Fantasia 2000. But then they realized there were enough locations in the first movie for them both to go to, and they didn't need to crank out the sequel after all (or something like that). So I certainly wouldn't mind getting Fantasia 2000 now, in KHIV.

Tangled I'd love to go here again, if we get to see some of the cool plots from the TV show, that I've watched on YouTube. LOL

Arendelle We all know we'll be going here. It isn't even a question. I just hope that this time, Disney gives Square Enix much more freedom (let Elsa and Anna be party members, please). Since Frozen II is kind of hit and miss. Square Enix could really make something cool with it--like they could have with Frozen in KHIII--if they're allowed some creativity.

Wreck-It Ralph Because no one, and I mean no one, wanted us to first experience this world in KHUX, tbh.

Radiant Garden I just really want to finish some of the plot threads there that are still hanging.

Destiny Islands I just really want to be able to go back here and play, dangit! And maybe finally get to explore the main island!

Shibuya Just let us meet Neku, Shiki, Beat, Joshua, and Rhyme in their Shibuya (even if it's an in the credits thing), if Quadratum isn't theirs and we're not going to meet them (or the Wicked Twisters) in the game, otherwise.

#posting this a day early because i probably won't have time tomorrow #kh4challenge #kingdom hearts 4 challenge #kh #kingdom hearts #i also know that everyone always talks about this one nightmare before christmas game being adapted. and if there's enough new story conten #there i wouldn't mind that either #also... the 'sequel stuff' that kilala princess adds to sleeping beauty is so good! and might be the best i've ever seen sleeping beauty #handled since it's own movie #i'd love to see something like that in kh. but i don't know how you'd do it without the kilala stuff #though i'm also not oppsed at all to kilala being included. hmm... #also. though i know nothing about it. maybe more tron based off of it's tv show if that would work. maybe #i also wouldn't say no to more traverse town or end of the world. but i know those are impossible. lol #oh! and lilo and stitch! even though deep space even barely counts as us 'already having been there' because we didn't meet lilo or the #other main characters of the film. or go to hawaii. we were in a prequel #long post

[cloudsrust]

Yeah I just watched the trailer for Good Omens 2 at least 5 times now. I'm unwell and I'm about to combust.

I'm not gonna survive these 50(?) days, nope. Just nope.

#the cloud can speak oh boi #aND THE FACT THE TRAILER CAME OUT IN JUNE- eating well this pride yep- had the serie itself came out it would've been just too much #ough I wanna see them in action again so baaad #I woke up miserable from last night storyboarding but now I'm radiant- those two dorks are that powerful #only sad thing is that I won't have time to rewatch season 1 at least until half of July or something #... holy shit I can use the episodes as a 6 days count down tho! #OHHHH I'm excited;;

[phoenixyfriend]

Sometimes it's just. Really obvious that people don't realize/remember that I'm a business major. I have a BBA. I am from the university program that everyone hates.

#on the one hand I understand the ongoing 'we hate business majors' meme that goes on in fandom spaces #but on the other hand it is just. so draining sometimes. #I won't vague about it now but it did recently count as one of the final straws to break my back in a Situation #anyway yeah I'm a (former by way of having graduated) business major and sometimes Those Posts are deeply annoying #personal

[andromedasummer]

can one of you f1 girlies become a journalist and interview the drivers who refused to take a knee because they wanted to fight racism in a different way/disagreed with how blm went about seeking justice and ask them, now that nearly 3 years have passed since the may protests, what steps they've taken to educate themselves on racism? what actions they've taken to improve things for people of colour within formula one/motorsports as a whole? or how they've gone about promoting racial equity in their own country?

#f1 #formula one #its been long enough surely they must have made some headway? right? (: ? #no those dumb fucking black and white anti racism videos dont count because their vagueness allowed #for them to be co-opted by white people who believe racism exists and that the whole of blm/equality movements are racist to them #from what ive seen literally only lewis has taken action to set up foundations and research groups focusing #on improving racial diversity at both grassroots and professional levels #others have given lip service but genuinely if another driver has been helpful in fighting racism in motorsports do mention #it would be a very very pleasant surprise #because the whole we race as one movement was very much image control #it was always going to be down to lewis and the other poc in the sport like zhou or yuki to fight against the unique and #insidious racism they face in the sport. ultimately the others won't because while racism is a problem they have #and causes problems for others. they see it as a problem they're not responsible for solving #and im sure most of them genuinely truly dont think theyre racist. dont know how their actions can enforce racism #but lewis has stood there and explained over and over again both behind closed doors and tv screens #and at a certain point that continued refusal to listen or engage becomes active and malicious ignorance #and that makes you racist. whether they believe that of themselves or not.

#i have to do a treatment plan tomorrow instead of you know actual therapy that might help me and MAN THOSE THINGS PISS ME OFF #y'all at Therapy Place make me take these but it's like...no #no i will not call 911 if i am suicidal #no i will not call y'all either #no i will not call a crisis line because i'm never suicidal from things they can actually help me with #and i can do the counting exercise alone #i have my own plan and you are not part of it and don't get to know what it is because you cannot be trusted with that information #it goes on the tall shelf away from the pathologizers kidnappers gatekeepers and just plain assholes #i SUPER like my therapist she's great but man these people expect me to barf my entire life story on demand any time there's An Assessment #and they don't give me anything in return #please #i want to know the worst thing that happened to you #no details just tell me in like three words what it was #and let it flash through your mind #i want you to remember it with me and for me on demand just for a second #and then we can look in each other's eyes and i won't feel like a dancing monkey and you won't feel like whatever it is you feel like #because you are insulated from the need for exchange of some kind between humans having intimate conversations by your job #must be nice for you #are YOU having nightmares? do YOU ever feel like the trauma is happening again? never almost never sometimes most of the time always #no but seriously i'm sure giving dozens of these takes a toll and i do have sympathy #but they still expect me to do it without any objections and I am NOT getting paid and they are NOT having necessary health care gatekept #so it's still really unequal #sorry not sorry

I DID IT!!

Aaaaaaaah 😭

I am mildly impressed that I can't remember seeing a single wing fic. It's honestly fascinating. I have more thoughts about the general trends and types of fics this fandom seems to be drawn to (or seems to skip entirely), but those will have to wait for a more reasonable time of day.

Maybe sometime tomorrow I'll also go over my ao3 history for an estimate of how many of these I ended up reading in the end. 🤔

I'm going to leave the tab open in my browser but now I'm finally going to allow myself to filter out everything I found I didn't vibe with (which... Will probably remove quite a bit of fics. Especially from the E rated ones. Once again I find myself at odds with the majority of fandom when it comes to certain aspects of my otps' characterization). But I did it!!

#911 #911 abc #buddie #evan buckley #eddie diaz #it's taken me a year but i've gone through the entire tag #admittedly there will probably be at least one more page added before I wake up tomorrow but oh well #now that i'll allow myself filters i won't have to scroll past like fourty fics in a row going 'squick. squick. character bashing. squick.' #'squick. author i don't vibe with. squick. another alternative meeting AU where buck is written out of his found family AKA squick.' #speaking of filtering my biggest wish for any fandom #is for people writing dom/sub vibe smut (that they have tagged as such) to actually tag which character is written as which #and no using 'top' and 'bottom' as a weird sort of 'shorthand' does not count #those are not the same #i just wanna be able to not have puzzle it together from vague tags and even vaguer summaries #in order to know if it's a fic for me or not #honestly same goes for all those AUs tagged with 'insert career here AU' #where it turns out that no it's just buck not being with the rest of them #and i have no way to figure that out until several thousands of words in #okay rant over i need to sleep now

I think I can allow myself to be cautiously optimistic about the upcoming The Count of Monte Cristo limited series, speaking as a Sam Claflin fan, rather than a fan of the book; compared to the agony I went through with DJATS. If they do screw up anything, it probably won't be to do with his character, seeing as Edmond's arc is the whole point of the story, and we can always rely on Sam that his acting will be immaculate. The role is the best opportunity to showcase his amazing range, taking into account the protagonist's journey and his various aliases--we don't know at this stage which ones they will use in the show, but they are sure to use some.

And who knows, maybe this time around people will actually appreciate Sam's acting, you know, instead of just everyone going on about 'cHEmiStRy'.

#sam claflin #samblogging #the count of monte cristo #more importantly: he's the only lead. everyone else is a supporting character #meaning: nobody will hog the limelight from him. nobody #no one in this as far as i can tell is a grandkid of any person referred to as 'king' #the most famous name is jeremy irons and he won't steal sam's thunder bc he has no need for that. if anything he will support sam #i'm still looking forward to see everyone in their roles ofc and getting to know them #i'll try and check out blake and mikkel before this starts #and it's a good opportunity for many young actors to make their name. all those that play the young characters #also hoping for a more mature audience and not so much focus on shipping. please. i can't go through that shit again #mypost

the scene i'm currently writing, i think i will need to use a different script format just to draft it

#currently outlining #the control for pacing needs to be very tight #so it would be better to just describe panel-by-panel #but some sequences won't have a set amount of panels #so i will probably just count those as one panel with 'subpanels' to make this simple #the other reason for a different format is that i need to keep track of a fast forward symbol #which changes over the course of the scene
