fictional character discourse would be more fun if we all internalized the fact that characters are narrative tools, not people. once we have that basic fact down, we can start talking about what story the author is trying to tell using these characters, whether they’re successful, whether the story itself is successful and by what means we are measuring success—which are all really fun and interesting things to discuss! but we simply cannot get to that point unless we first accept that fictional characters simply do not have thoughts, feelings, opinions, or any agency on their own. a fictional character has more in common with the fictional chair theyre sitting on than with a real person
as someone who has done a literature degree at uni, thisssssssssssss. I love analysing media / characters / books I love ? and even if I’m critiquing those things or breaking them down it doesn’t mean I don’t love them, It’s just that this is how I enjoy my media and it IS fun to try and unpack authorial intent or even beyond that, creating your own reading of a text or character (which isn’t just limited to transformative fiction! In fact it’s openly encouraged in literature analysis to bring your own context into your interpretation and understand it / yourself and your lens) anywayyyyy I think a lot of this stems from readers/viewers self projecting and identifying with characters so they see any criticism of them as a criticism of themselves ~~
#one of my fave lit theory tools is from barthes actually#contemplating the 'death' of the author and the concept that once the work is out there it can be interpreted by the audience in any way#they wish independently of the authors original intent#so in essence the author doesn't matter and is 'dead' in the equation#because as a reader we can be led certain ways by devices etc but almost everyone will bring their own contexts and understandings to a text
little spirk drawing about being emotionally compromised :-)
I drew this for Spirk Day (I love them so much) ✨💙💛✨
I can't believe Spock said for real in real life that he had as much faith in Kirk as he had in gravity like what the fuck
Ancient Fury
Along with Kirk bringing “when my boyfriend hears about this you’re gonna get it” attitude in The Price/Fate of the Phoenix Spock also brings an extremely potent “if you lay a finger on him I will kill you” heat that I am just reveling in.
Hey! I came back from a long hiatus, this time with Star Trek, although surely no one remembers me.
I redrew some scenes to practice the style.
"A piece of the Action" is one of my favorite chapters, it's so funny, Kirk and Spock look so handsome in their suits. Mccoy doesn't need it to look handsome hahaha, maybe I'll draw him next time.
The fact I’ve been delaying finishing ds9 for 5 years ………
So SPN and bbc Sherlock both had disaster level finales…. Good thing dr who will literally never end because this website would finally implode if it did and it was as bad
“ Second star to the right … And straight on ‘til morning. ”
I wanna see Kieran Culkin and Oscar Isaac do like a Vulcan battle to the death but in character as Roman Roy and Duke Leto while I sit in the stands and clap

I’ve wanted to do a redraw of this for ages and i’m very glad it came out well… it’s not perfect but it’s good enough for 1am :)
Forgot how much people wanna act smart on this site but simultaneously purposely misunderstanding what they’re reading 😭
