if you ever notice that i seem to have a preference for the 'dreamsickness' setup (vianca as college exes) over the 'star maker' setup (vianca as childhood friends) in art, just know that's not because i think college exes is more likely to be canon but instead because if i think about a 'star maker' setup too long i get nauseous

#vip #not to talk about my own fics incessantly but i think they do provide a pretty decent framework for understanding the #potential backstories of these characters and their relationship #given that we now know they go back at least as far as college . anything goes in terms of bride/stepdaughter sketch adaptation #star maker as purely adherent to the source material of the sketch vs dreamsickness pulling on similar ideas but twisted to be.#uh.#for lack of a better word #''more fun''#in that it makes me want to cry less #however. it must be said #as someone who has written both versions? the star maker setup does feel more 'natural'/right in terms of characterization #terrible news for me personally.#my only comfort is that the timeline on a dreamsickness setup makes more sense #pick your poison tbh there's no version of a vianca backstory that isn't Pure Evil #this post brought to you by me seeing some people get into vianca fic via dreamsickness and not reading star maker #completely valid choice! however. i did not write those fics for the same reasons #dreamsickness is more accurate to certain small-scale canon details we've learned in season 2 but it was written #as a toned-down version of what i'm scared we're gonna get #anyway #uhhhhhhhh #back to drawing dreamsickness flavored fluff and not thinking about it too hard #my fic #star maker #dreamsickness
