passed out very quickly when i got back to the hotel room after downing a bottle and a half of sake, but my parents didn't and put a law and order episode on to pass the time. and while i was drifting off i heard the background music of some scene and had a thought so important i dug my heels in and woke up enough to speak. and i started fucking asked if "they've been using the same music for the past like, fifty years-- no it's not that long, like twenty, do you think they've been doing that or did they have to, like, commission someone for a new ones, once they started writing new kinds of scenes" and then immediately fell asleep. like. i was Me, Chief Idiot enough to recognise that a long-running show would have to evolve with the times and that that would heavily influence its structure -- like, say, the shift in focus from mystery-focused contained episodes to more character-focused interpersonal drama (now that audiences have had time to get attached) -- and if that would lead to change in the score. but i was also drunk enough to say absolutely none of this and instead go with Wow i wonder if they made new scenes

Things that work in fiction but not real life

  • torture getting reliable information out of people
  • knocking someone out to harmlessly incapacitate them for like an hour
  • jumping into water from staggering heights and surviving the fall completely intact
  • calling the police to deescalate a situation
  • rafting your way off a desert island
  • correctly profiling total strangers based on vibes
  • effectively operating every computer by typing and nothing else
  • ripping an IV out of your arm without consequences
  • heterosexual cowboy

i think some of you dont like narratives or stories or characters i think you just like fanfiction tropes

protagonists can and will be sexist, racist, insensitive, cruel, stupid, etc, especially towards the beginning of a story. these are called character flaws and they are a surprise tool that will lead to narrative fulfillment later

my beefleaf contribution for @tgcf-reverse-big-bang !

I was lucky enough to be paired with not one but two phenomenal writers who took the time to craft amazing fics based on this art. BE SURE TO CHECK THEM OUT BELOW!!! @gaycowboyjesus, @aerialights - I'm no writer myself so no wonder I lack words to express how honored I am that my artwork inspired you both to create those absolutely breathtaking stories!

Sometimes, looking at Shi Qingxuan feels the same as looking into a mirror, and no matter how much time passes, this part of their shared existence always chafes. Across lifetimes, He Xuan will always find Shi Qingxuan.

He watches her that night, like he hasn’t done in months, a specter outside her bedroom window, a breeze in the dark night. Her things are, as always, scattered around her bed where she dropped them upon falling asleep. He can’t help but take notice that the fan is in a place of pride, tacked up on the wall next to polaroid pictures of β€” he realizes with a start β€” the two of them. He remembers her taking the pictures, shoving that too-big retro camera in his face and squishing the two of them together tight enough that He Xuan’s cheek brushed against hers. He shakes the memory off and watches her sleep, her chest slowly rising and falling with each inhale and exhale.
