all comic fans know how to do is: develop superiority complexes based on their personal perceptions of a character, eat hot chip, and lie

Wwaaaaaahh I can't stop being emo about Stan & Fordddd. Bc they're two sides of the same coinnn,, they're both insecure,, but stan is afraid of abandonment, while ford is afraid of connectionnnn

Cus Ford had to meet impossibly high expectations!! But no one expected Stan to amount to anything!!

And so ford became deathly afraid of getting close to people, because his real self didn't live up to his unattainable self-image. That shame made him scared of being truly seen and understood, so he pushed everyone away!!

But Stan already felt unwanted, he relied on external validation to give him worth. His self-image was so poor, his self esteem so low, that he pretended to be someone else. He wanted family more than anything, because he couldn't love himself!!

All they ever wanted was love and acceptance, but to truly be loved, ford had to destroy his own self-identify, where as Stan had to create his!

Stan & Fords story is about ego!!! Ego death and rebirth ggaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh ooouughhghu

I know protagonists are better when they're not perfect, but I think it's also fair to be sick of watching a dude, FIVE SEASONS into his "I was a piece of shit to people I cared about but I'm trying to be a better man" redemption arc, blatantly take out his frustrations on the people he cares about by screaming and swearing at them. There's not a whole lot of show left, right? He's going to learn eventually that it's immature and unfair to scream at your friends when you're frustrated at something that's not their fault, yes?

It actually really bothers me that Tim is framing this as some grand tribute to firefighters who have lost their lives. The story with Red was a tribute. The story with Kevin was a tribute. This slap dash bullshit that didn't actually make sense or build up or even center Bobby at all was NOT a tribute.

me when the donald and douglas dynamic is paralleled in the show between adam and chase, but it's become the dynamic between bree and chase in my series

yeah as expected. it's not walpurgis. it is fuckin. fell bullet yi sang (id) though. wonder if we'll get contempt, awe or sticking as well. (probably not.)

cried the whole drive home about cinta. which i know sounds dramatic, and i know i keep saying i’m upset but i am. i’m just so sick of finding and falling in love with characters that i see myself in, that make me feel represented, only to have them pointlessly ripped away

[bibvck]

anirudh saying that the crew was made to believe that ravi was the one who died and he had to lie to cover the truth is fucked. that's fucked. why are we doing all of that on that set ?? and then to not even bother trying to hide anything about the ceremony ? what is tim's problem

[anxietycontinuum]

maybe it's just me but framing perfectionism as something ultimately negative doesn't help. saying it's "good for you actually" doesn't do anything either though. guess i'll die

I just had a thought but What do you think would happen if Creek got into a position where he had to choose between risking his own safety to save Garde's? and Hibiscus? ( sorta similar to the type of situations Branch tried to entrap him with in Creek week lol ) I know at the end of the day they are just characters in your control 😂😂 so I guess my question is more that if you did write such a situation what would you write Creek to do? would you write him as having finally found something that he's willing to give his own life for? and maybe having undergone a bit of an arc where he learns to be more traditionally heroic? or would you maybe write it in such a way that's a tad closer to his movie character? like maybe in a dire situation Creek does panic again and chooses himself?

and as a result his loved ones end up in danger and Creek has to find some other way to get them out of it while feeling Hella guilty that he still can't help but panic and prioritise himself when it comes to dangerous situations. I guess the real question is how much has he changed from the first movie in your story?

OHOHOhohohoooo ! That is a good question ! And one that i HAVE rotated in my mind before

To me Creek will always be a character who puts his own wellbeing and safety first, but he's also a character who's recently been put through hell for doing just that, he's felt a level of fear and lonelyness that he's never felt in his life and he will do anything to stop that from happening again, plus the fact that his decision to save himself caused him to lose everything he had in the process is bound to mess with how he perceives his own worth

So i wouldn't call him a traditionally heroic type, he'll save Garde and Hibiscus because being alone again scares him more than putting his own life in danger, he will do an act of bravery out of fear
