How Snow made the Hunger Games more fair

Spoilers for all the books so far: I literally reference them and everything

Recently I've been contemplating how the Hunger Games have changed over the course of it's 75 year history. Now if you've read ballad then you know that the first 9 games had predominately Career victors (ie. tributes from 1, 2, & 4) due to the fact that they were better fed and therefore better able to outlast and fight their fellow tributes. But by the time of the 75th games we somehow manage to have victors from all the districts, and even multiple (at least 1 male and 1 female). If you're looking at the numbers this doesn't really make sense unless the odds of being a victor shifted to a more equal chance.

While it's been argued that certain tributes are less likely to win because of their attributes (age, sex, district) these can't be the sole contributing factors to winning. Which means that between the 10th and the 75th games a shift in how the games work had to have occurred so that less likely people could become victors.

I saw a youtube video today from Rachel A Ramras (highly recommend her hunger games videos), and while she focused on how the games and particularly ballad had a circus motif in it, I want to expand on what caused this shift. As she made clear it seems that Coriolanus Snow began the new era of the games but it's not just the influence of Lucy Gray that made this occur but also his own experiences throughout the book.

Some key changes from the 10th to the 74th games included: new arena, monetary prize for victors, victors village, tribute parade, interview night, training scores, betting, sponsorship, announcing who died, increased tesserae to the victors district, and the founding of the career districts concept (They actually start training them seriously).

Some of these we see in ballad as things that are changed like implementing the sponsors and having interviews, but we also see a shift in the public perception of the games in order to keep them relevant. While people were initially angry after the dark days and therefore wanted the tributes to die, by the time we get to the 10th games people don't care as much and the capital views the bloodbath as wasteful or distasteful. When Coriolanus starts implementing ideas along with his classmates for the 10th games the capital audience is more invested and this can be seen in the betting and sponsorship occurring.

While we don't know anything yet about the other changes I mentioned, Sunrise on The Reaping may reveal a few more relevant pieces of the story like weather all the thing we see in the 74th games are present or whether the game makers add more between the 2nd and 3rd quarter quells.

Now why does this matter? As I stated earlier, the first games were won by tributes who had raw strength and were better fed, but the victors in the decades that followed were more diverse as a result of these changes. Why would that be? The cause of this shift is best seen in the 74th games, were a small girl from 12 managed to get the public on her side and this got her further in the games. If she wasn't liked for her interview then she wouldn't have gotten sponsors, but Katniss also was able to use her skills as a hunter to make it even though she wasn't the most physically dangerous tribute (she mentions this in the book how almost all the other tributes are taller than her, but some aren't as well fed).

This shows how the chances of winning have shifted to favoring not just those with strength and training (although both definitely help) but instead those who can get public support can also win even if they aren't the best fighters. This still leaves room for the outliers as no matter how good you are you can always lose (See all the career deaths in book 1) but it also doesn't mean that just anyone can win (I don't have numbers but most of the victors probably didn't also happen to be 12 when they survived their games).

Going back to how Lucy Gray and his own experiences in the book (TBoSaS) influenced him, I feel as though seeing how he and his family reacted to LG got him thinking about how he had viewed the past few games. He didn't particulary care who lived but during this 10th game he cared becasue it effected him (mentioned in class which made his classmate suggested betting to get people invested in who survives). But then the idea is taken further with the interviews because he had gotten to know LG and therefore cared more about her surviving (it humanized her in his eyes) which is what we see the interviews do in Books 1 and 2.

The addition of training also makes sense as he wanted people to be able to bet with more knowledge about the tributes skills, but also because it allows for two other things. 1) the capital monitors what the districts are showing their citizens, and 2) it evens the playing field as those less skilled can pick something up in a few days (learning how not to die of poison plants or freezing makes the games more entertaining as the tributes don't die in 'boring ways' *see Book 1 referencing the year of the flooding and the year of the freezing, no one was entertained by everyone dying in a blizzard from hypothermia).

The giving of prizes to winning districts is where I see a shift from what LG taught him to what he saw for himself. While he's in 12 he sees how LG went through so much just to return to normal when she returns. But if he's investing the capital audience in her story then he wants her to be as similar to the capital people as possible (I felt that he kept ignoring her ties to her district so that he didn't have to face his prejudice towards district people who he typically dehumanizes). It also makes people more willing to volunteer if they get housing out of winning and also money so they can live comfortably for the rest of their lives.

When we look at book 2 Katniss is enjoying the knowledge that her family doesn't have to hunt for survival and she can do it for fun/ to relax (this means that when she's dealing with her ptsd or foot injury it doesn't effect their ability to put food on the table). Not just that but having the ability to ask for more food at the risk of having your name entered more than once also serves as a way to weed out the poorer members of the district. Katniss has had multiple entries every year which is like the capital paying for her to better care for herself and pay it back by competing in the games. We see her tell us in Book 1 how Madge only has her name in the bare minimum number of times and how this causes resentment from some people (Gale in this scene), serving as a way for the capital to keep the districts divided through their own class system.

The tesserae is also a source of safety but this time for the whole district as everyone benefits from it. It serves a dual purpose though, providing safety to victorious districts and creating resentment towards the career districts. In book 1 Katniss explains how the capital allows 1, 2, & 4 to break the no-training rule because it causes resentment and strife between districts. But additionally we see how districts that win more often also volunteer more often (Something that never happens in 12 which also happens to be the poorest district).

In conclusion, the games are definitely better in the sense that a more diverse group of people can become victors but in spite of this the capital like always is using these improvements to grow dissent and keep the districts pitted against each other in order to control them.

-----------------------------------------------

If you notice any inaccuracies please let me know and I'll be sure to fix them, I'm not as confident about book 2 and 3 content (haven't re-read in a while).

Thanks,

dreamed that I was... okay the thing I was doing that the actual dream was about defies explanation for a huge number of reasons and I'm not even going to try. but it obliquely involved semi anonymous figures, and near the end one of them sort of started getting in contact with me, going like "hey, the work you're doing* really interested me for xyz specific reasons that you did particularly well at that I noticed; you should really consider adapting it and making it part of this bigger work a bunch of us are working on."

it was—reflecting reality—like there was a thing I spent a fair amount of time on by myself, creating things I thought were honestly really quite good and submitting them to be experienced by a community I only interacted with through that (and didn't know how to engage with in a deeper way, but wanted to in theory, but also wouldn't really want to unless my contributions were actually of quality?)

and then getting a message that all at once showed that people had been engaging with my work, and understood what I was going for, and thought it was worth their time, and thought it was worth building upon? and that it was the same people, I guess, is the point.

so of course I went to look at the work they were talking about integrating with, and I was like "huh, that's really interesting; I can see some ways that's compatible with my thing but some ways they aren't perfect matches; what do you think about—"

and they were like "look. you should really consider it strongly. your work has potential but I see some serious flaws with it and with you that I think this process of merging it into something else entirely could help address, and it could make you better at this thing we are doing in a bunch of specific ways, because you clearly lack those skills now." and I was like "...um." and they were like, essentially, heavy sigh, "look as a leader of this community I'm put in a difficult place. there are some people who have serious concerns about you. like for example [list of 6-8 specific discord/tumblr usernames] are pretty uncomfortable having you in the space at all, but I have more faith in you than that; I think you could grow out of it." and I was like "...um." and they were like "but you have to understand. when you've already published three works that we all know and agree essentially boil down to positive depictions of sexual coercion/sexual violence, some people—"

and I was like "hold on one second can you tell me which account you think is mine?"

and then I woke up and had to mentally go through my published ao3 works a few times to make super sure I couldn't think of one that could be read as glorifying the violation of consent and which would thus cause multiple people to regularly discuss fearing and resenting me in a space of which I was not aware but into which I would hypothetically like to be invited.

sorry, did I forget to say it wasn't a good dream? should have said that up top shouldn't I.

-

*basically treating it like a fan work in a fan community; that didn't really make a ton of sense but once I momentarily accepted the premise for the sake of the conversation that was the context from that point forward in the dream, as things go

[crystalelemental]

Okay, wife's on the controller but I did some testing in the character creation for Class of Heroes, and while this is fairly preliminary, I'm ready to talk initial thoughts.

This game is, at present, not particularly good. At all. I understand it's basically a faithful rerelease of an old game, so jank is to be expected, but I'm kinda floored at how bad we're talking sometimes.

The biggest issue is that it is hilariously wasteful of mechanics. When you make a character, you select gender, race, and alignment. You get a set amount of Bonus stats, determined upon hitting Enroll, and based on all of these factors, you select a class. So for instance, the base classes - Warrior, Mage, Priest, and Thief - only need one stat at level 12. Easily achieved. Then you have slightly more advanced classes, like Ranger, who seems to be the next step up on Thief. At the very least, they have the same level 1 skill that implies thief skills. They require not only stats, but also your alignment must be Neutral or Evil. So if you put in for an Elf with a Good alignment, please disregard that bow in their portrait, you may not have a Ranger Elf, and that's the only archer class. WHOOPS. This gets super granular with the latest classes needing a ton of stats, specific gender, and specific alignment. It is wildly specific.

To make matters worse, you might think okay, Bishop requires 13 in both magic-related stats, and either a Good or Evil alignment. Clearly, this is the blended class for Mage and Priest, right? Wrong. If you somehow manage to get this out of the gate, You will get just the healing magic. Not the offensive. You don't know this until you've done it. And the only way to do it is to roll a high Bonus points to allocate.

But wait, there's more restriction! Let's say you realize that later classes aren't good until later, and opt for basic classes out the gate. You decide that ranged weapons, like Bows, are absurdly expensive (we'll get to this), and want back row mages to cast. Well that's great, let's set up some magic! Gnomes have high Int, they'd do well. So you allocate Mage, and you get Fire, the basic offensive spell. Great! So okay, you have three back row characters, let's get one more Mage. So you go alright, let's try Fairy or Elf. Those are traditionally magic-aligned classes, surely they'll be able to-they don't learn Fire. They can learn useless options, but they can't learn Fire. So they cannot contribute to combat ever, being on the back row without offensive spells, and unable to afford ranged weaponry. Apparently, your spell list associated with each class is restricted based on race. You will not know this until you've one it, and check what spells are acquired. Getting higher-tier stuff with access to those spell types does fuck-all, near as I can tell.

The only benefit I can find is that it's really easy to reroll for high Bonus numbers. Mostly, it'll give between 6 and 10, but sometimes you'll see like 16-18, and think okay yeah, big money. No. No, that's not the big money. Rarely, you will see 26-29. And in one blessed instance, I saw 37. Which is great. Without a clear means to reclass, at least not easily, you may think that it is beneficial to allocate these points in a way that allows early access to stronger classes. But, as mentioned, you'll tech into Bishop and find out oops, no offensive spells, and then high physical defense enemies just wall your entire team. I'm not sure about this, but something increases EXP needed to level as well. I thought it was stats, but did some tests and it is not. I made the same character over and over with different Bonus values, and the difference between 6 and 37 bonus points was 0EXP. So there's no reason not to just reroll for bigger bonuses. But I assume class increases EXP. I do not know that for certain.

Okay, so that out of the way, how about the gameplay?

Dungeon exploration is immediately concerning because there is no map. You need a spell that will only temporarily reveal what the map looks like. Hope your memory is strong, or your team is big enough to not need to worry about encounters. Which. Mine have not been. I had similar difficulties with early game of my first Etrian Odyssey, so better understanding of systems might help, but right now it's a mess. I've legitimately considered dropping difficulty to Easy just to manage.

Drops are random materials, which are unknown until you identify them. This can be done one of two ways. If you have a specific class or character, either Gnome or Bishop but assuming Gnome, you can identify for free. But it can fail, and if it fails too often they get performance anxiety and can't cast for a while. Which is. So great. Or you can pay for it. Guaranteed success, but the cost to identify is the same as the selling cost, so you make no money off of doing this. Best of all, you cannot sell unidentified materials. So you are required to do this. I assume it's percentage based odds to succeed, but when an identification failed, they got scared really easily and I never saw an initial fail run into success. Like, ever.

Speaking of, money is a nightmare of unspeakable proportions. Apparently the devs are fans of Genealogy, because every character has their individual funds. This can be pooled to a specific character or redistributed evenly, but that kinda makes me wonder why that mechanic exists at all? Like, I can also just give items to others, so trade is free. I don't like it in Genealogy, but at least money was reasonably plentiful if you did all your Arena grinding and the pawn shop meant decisions had to be made. This is just free and therefore meaningless. More pressing, however, is that you start with no gold at all, random encounters are giving me only 1-2 gold, and materials are basically unimportant. The only way to make money is to find Ancient or Magic Coins, which are...100 to 150 gold at the current Bronze level. For reference, when I unlocked Ranger, I attempted to get a bow. 3200 gold for just the bow. You pay for ammo separately. I cannot even remotely afford that.

This could be mitigated if money were easily acquired, but grinding is very, very hard to do. You have spell slots, usually 3-4 casts of a particular magic type, before you're completely spent. Which means your healing situation is brutal. Frontliners are the only ones who can attack regularly, the back row needs those ranged weapons. So what winds up happening is nothing gets done. You go in for a little bit, fight a handful of fights, hope to god you got a coin or two so you can afford literally anything, then go back in. There is synthesis, but that's also random. You can find recipes, but near as I can tell, unless you get the specific things you're after, all these materials just take up space. I am dreading the moment it tells me "inventory full."

Lastly, I want to mention something that is so inane, it actually had me break down into fits of nervous laughter on audio last night. After much back and forth, I finally achieved one (1) level up. Excited to see the deal, we proceeded to go through each stat individually. Strength up! Int up! Wisdom down! Agility up! Luck up! HP went up by 1!

...I'm sorry, back that up a second. Did you just say Wisdom down? Are you actually telling me, in complete sincerity, that my stats went down on a level up? Are we serious? I have never, in my entire life, seen anything like this. I've seen stats go down with things like reclassing, but to have a level up occur and be told that any stat went down is so baffling it loops right around infuriating to hilarious. How in the fuck did my stats go down? I have so many questions about this. Is it stats not aligned to your class? I went for late game classes, maybe the early game ones are going to have more stats go down because I tried to roll 20+ bonus points on everyone and they're considered unnecessary. Maybe it factors in specific skills, like if we only attack on the frontline then we don't need spells? I have actually no idea, and am horrified by what I may uncover.

The bottom line is, game kinda sucks right now. This is some premium jank, and I am not yet attached enough to feel endeared to these systems. I'm going to keep at it, but no promises. If I continue to not get a foothold on it, eventually the other game I ordered will arrive, and I can't promise not to jump ship.

Prompt idea: Lingerie with Frankie Morales but make it cute/funny? Picture this, you've got all of the fancy bits you've never worn before and you're struggling with the fiddly latches, crying out, "I can't get this shit on!" You finally figure it out, show it off to Frankie and he loves it. But he likes sex best when there's nothing between the two of you, so he works on unwrapping you. You notice his lips stop moving on you for a few seconds before he whines, "I can't get this shit off!"

Tangled Up (Frankie “Catfish” Morales x f!Reader)

Summary: ^^

W/C: 3K

Warnings: uh this is filth. SMUT 18+, oral sex (f receiving), lingerie, unprotected PIV sex (wrap it before you tap it, babes), Frankie has no patience and is rlly strong

A/N: this speaks to me, anon. I love this. I hope you do too!

Frankie already thinks you’re the most beautiful thing on the face of this planet. Every little thing you do is amazing to him, the way you call his name, the way you bat your lashes at him when you really want something.

He’s absolutely obsessed with your body; he’s told you that and demonstrated time after time that he thinks you’re the goddamn prettiest thing he’s ever seen, that your body is absolutely perfect in its uniqueness.

Naturally, Frankie has his favorite pieces of clothing on you, the way they cling to or flow off of your wonderful form. Frankie is a big believer that the body is the soul, and he’s absolutely in love with yours. Anything to accentuate your soft skin, with colors that stand out against the tone of it, drives Frankie absolutely wild.

Lingerie is his favorite. It surprised you at first. Frankie is a patient man, slow and soft when he wants to be, prioritizing you over himself in everything he does but especially in the bedroom. Something like that feels self-indulgent to him, like it’s his one weakness, you looking like that just for him. Then he gets to unwrap you like the best fucking present he’s ever received- yeah, Frankie is really into lingerie on you.

He’s gifted it to you, gone shopping with you to buy it, but his favorite thing is being surprised. The element of shock and sensuality when he’s confronted with the most beautiful body wrapped in such perfect garments is his favorite sensation, next to digging his fingers into your hips and pulling your body against his to kiss you.

You know how much he loves it, and that motivates you to do it somewhat often. The problem is that lingerie is expensive. You usually find yourself repeating outfits for Frankie to rapidly strip from your body, which he clearly doesn’t care about. You look sexy, and he loves it. But you love the surprise, the shock and admiration as he has to run those tough and strong hands over the lace.

Frankie particularly loves dark colors, like black or a deep velvety red, on you. He thinks they look painfully seductive, tempting.

That’s what’s motivated you to buy the piece laying on your bed. It’s black, with a bra and panties and quite a lot of straps, buckles and loops built into it. You’d been hesitant, but seeing it in real life makes you even more excited. Frankie gets home soon; time to get in.

The panties go on easily, obviously. The next part is the challenge. There are straps upon straps, endless slots for you to shove limbs through. You hold it up and frown, not quite sure how to get it on.

Wandering to the mirror, you shove yourself into the thing, making some errors but eventually finding the proper way to wear it.

You look hot: both physically and sexually. There’s a lacy collar, attached to the intersection of the bra. The cups are mesh with lacy decor to cover the nipples, and there are many straps over your abdomen that hook up to the panties. All in all, it’s a complicated number, but you smile as you do a little twirl. Frankie will like it.

The other hot: you’re sweating. It took effort to put it on, lots of odd angles to pull and tug. You feel warm and flushed, so it’s a relief to plop on the edge of the bed and let the cool air of the house get you acclimated again.

You wait, mindlessly scrolling through your phone as you relax on the bed. Frankie’s schedule is far from exact, but you know the 15-20 minute window he’ll arrive home in. Lucky for you, the garage door opens at the normal time he arrives home.

Tossing your phone aside, you perch seductively on the edge of the bed, crossing your legs and leaning back on your arms. “Frankie, baby,” you call into the house as the door opens.

“Hey honey,” he calls back. You can hear him taking off his boots, taking off his jacket. His footsteps ascend with him as he climbs the stairs, and you fidget a little with the lingerie.

He stops in the kitchen, doing something or another. You frown a little. “Frankie,” you call again.

“Just one second, babe,” he chuckles, grabbing a glass of water and something to eat in the kitchen. When he has his things, he meanders through the house and to the bedroom. He nearly drops what he’s holding at the sight waiting for him.

He’s wearing a t-shirt and jeans. Nothing special, but he always looks so good in it. You naturally smirk just at the sight of your man, of how perfect he is. “How was work?” You purr, letting your head loll to the side so he can get a full view of your body.

Frankie swallows hard. “One second.”

You frown and he walks away, putting the water and food back down in the kitchen. He hurries back just to stand in the doorway, staring at you. “I… wow.”

You giggle a little. “I know you like something to tug on,” you tease and snap one of the straps against your skin. The sound goes straight to Frankie’s dick, steadily growing harder in those dark-wash jeans. “Well?”

“You look like a fucking bombshell, babe,” he groans as he walks closer and falls to his knees at the edge of the bed. “Holy fuck,” he shivers as his fingers trace up your bare thighs, sliding beneath the waistline of the panties.

“Glad you like it,” you chuckle and take off his cap, throwing it aside so you can bury your hands in those pretty curls. They’re so soft, fluffy when you run your fingers through them.

Frankie’s lips find your thigh, starting just above the knee and making their way up. “Love it,” he nods, murmuring it into the soft and sensitive skin there. “But you know I like you better with nothing to separate our skin,” he flirts, looking up at you with those round eyes that make you weak.

You shiver under his work, twirling one wave around your finger. “Take at least a little time to enjoy it, baby,” you pout.

He sits back on his knees and nods. “Of course. You know what…” he trails off as he stands, going over to the dresser and grabbing something from on top of it.

He returns moments later with your Polaroid, smirking a little. “Now I can enjoy it longer,” he chuckles as he pops open the lens. “Pose for me, baby girl,” he says, his voice growing darker and deeper as he takes in the sight.

You do, legs spread and chest pushed out, looking at him seductively through the camera. There’s a flash and a click as the camera takes the picture, then the film pops out through the bottom, still black as it develops. Frankie sets it back on the dresser, along with the photo, then stands at the foot of the bed. “How do you suggest I appreciate it, hm?” He asks.

Eyeing him, you can’t help but smile. “Take your shirt off first.”

“Okay,” he laughs softly and pulls off the soft gray tee, exposing his muscles and slight tummy. It’s such a beautiful sight, and your eyes follow the thin trail of hair down.

“Now the belt.”

“Should I just presume you want it all off?” He asks again, tilting his head.

Laughing, you fall flat onto your back on the bed. “Yes. All of it. Off.” You lift your head just slightly, dropping it as you realize it might add a couple of chins.

“No, watch me,” he orders, and it makes you smirk. It’s an easy domination, the way Frankie could do whatever the fuck he wants with you. Neither of you ever agreed upon anything, never made a pact and discussed the idea of something serious, but it’s something the two of you learned over your time of knowing and loving each other. Frankie knows what you like, and you know what he likes: when he gives the orders. When he’s fully nude, his thick cock heavy and reddened, you smile even wider. “What next?” He asks, allowing the role to be played.

You pretend to think about it, stroking your chin. “Well, do whatever you want to me. But the lingerie stays on.”

Frankie pouts. “I wanna fuck you, and I like it best when there’s nothing between us.”

“Then find another way,” you shrug, that devious little smile tugging up the corner of your mouth. “Do something else. Maybe if you’re good enough, I’ll take it off for you and let you fuck me.”

“Oh, you’ll let me fuck you?” He teases as he gets on his knees, one hand on each thigh as he pushes them apart and nestles between them. “How kind.” His lips trace along the inside of your thigh, slowly working their way from the knee to the apex.

You shiver beneath him, wiggling at the anticipation. “I’m giving,” you sigh, any sarcasm you attempt to give lost in a moan as Frankie mouths at your clit through the panties.

“You sure are,” he murmurs, his own body shuddering at the wetness of the lacy fabric covering your slit. His tongue contributes to the dampness, starting at your opening and slowly licking all the way up to nip at your clit through the lace.

“Baby,” you whimper, your hands digging into his hair.

“You told me to take my time,” he mumbles and looks up at you, eyes darkened with lust. “I’m just following orders, baby girl.” He pushes the panties aside and laps at your folds.

A whimper trails from your lips and your back arches off the bed, desperate for more. “God, I fucking love you.”

Frankie traces two fingers through your slick, teasing at your entrance and sitting back on his heels to watch the sight that accompanies the unholy sounds. “You think you love me? I got to come home from work to this,” he groans, taking in the sight of you and plunging two thick fingers inside of you. “Nothing better than this, pretty girl,” he shudders and dives back in, sucking at your clit and tracing it slowly with his tongue.

You keen into his touch, grinding your hips back against his mouth. “Fuck, Frankie,” you cry out as he curves his fingers inside of you, hitting that perfect spongy spot.

“Yeah?” He murmurs into you, his tongue barely resting for a second.

“Yeah, oh fuck,” you shiver. “Baby, don’t you dare stop.”

“Couldn’t if I tried,” he groans, working his tongue harder against you.

It’s all too much in just the right way. The cresting wave that builds inside of you finally breaks as Frankie swirls the sensitive bud around his tongue, and you whine his name as the release pours through your body, making you shake and squirm and moan. “There we go,” he murmurs as he pulls away, your body coming down from its high. “That enough appreciation for you?”

“Plenty,” you nod. “Now fuck me. Please.”

He smirks a little and stands. “Finally,” he chuckles as he runs his fingers over the endless straps covering your body. He snaps one of them against your breast, making the soft flesh ripple. He groans at the sight, of the way your tit bounces against it.

Frankie pulls you to sit up, reaches behind and unclasps the bra. Normally, that would be enough to get you naked, but there’s a neck harness and straps and to be honest, he doesn’t know where to get started. “How the fuck did you get this thing on?” He murmurs.

You laugh a little. “It took me a really long time, honestly. It was hard.”

Frankie sighs and pulls at the straps, trying to find a good way to get it off. His deft fingers search your body for some kind of clasp or buckle, but find none. He unclips the panties from the top, at least, and slides them off, then gets back to working.

His eyes look up at you and he pouts. “Come on. Give me a hint, baby.”

“I don’t fucking know, Frankie,” you laugh, still on an endorphin high from the orgasm moments ago. “I don’t know how this thing got on and I know even less about how to get it off.”

Frankie’s forehead falls against your chest, groaning. “Fuck.” He tries gathering the straps and pulling them up. That doesn’t work. He searches under every strap for maybe velcro or snaps. Nothing. He pushes you back down onto your back.

“Goddamnit!” He groans and his lack of patience gets the best of him. Gripping the straps, Frankie pulls them hard until the straps break, leaving you bare beneath him and completely stunned.

The straps fall to your sides, exposing your full chest and abdomen. “Frankie!” You exclaim, honestly more than turned on from his little show of strength.

“Sorry,” he bites his lip and looks down at you, but you know he’s really not. The tip of his cock is leaking, red and flushed and you know he’d do just about anything to get inside you now.

You giggle a little, the adrenaline from the moment rushing through your veins. “That was fucking hot,” you admit, spreading your legs. “You got me stripped down. Now fuck me, Frankie, please.”

The embarrassment is gone from his face within seconds. “Yes ma’am,” he mumbles, climbing over you and kissing you desperately hard.

You cup his face and hike your knees up around his waist, kissing him back just as readily, tongue pressing against the seam of his lips. He allows you in in the exact moment he thrusts inside of you, making you moan into his mouth before breaking away.

“Frankie,” you whimper as he’s pushed fully inside of you, throbbing and twitching as you say his name. “Fuck, baby,” you whine, his thick cock pressed against your cervix. “You gonna go easy on me?”

“Not in the slightest,” he mumbles back and pulls mostly out before pushing back in, hard. You cry out his name over and over, grabbing at his shoulder blades and back. You can feel the muscles there shift as he pushes, holding himself up over you. His head falls down with a groan as you reach one hand behind him to teasingly tug at his balls.

In return, Frankie lowers himself over you and brings one hand down to circle your clit, thrusting in time with the movement of his worn fingertips. God, he’s so damn good with his hands, always has been, and you whimper that into his ear, moving both hands back up to clutch at his back, nails digging into his skin.

It’s almost a competition of pleasure between the two of you, who can do more of the tiny little things the other loves, who can get the other to their peak first. Frankie kisses at your neck, mumbling sweet words into your skin, crying out as your nails drag down his back. “Baby, please, you feel so fucking good, god you’re so big,” you groan next to his ear, filling it with all of the affirmations he loves.

“You‘re just so fucking tight,” he grunts, thrusting harder and harder into you. You get tighter as you clench around him, and Frankie knows that it means you’re close. “Come on, baby girl. You gonna cum on my dick?”

“Yes, yes,” you chant, head falling back into the bed. “Oh, fuck, Frankie-oh!” You squeal as he hits the sweet spot inside of you once more, his fingers working in the perfect rhythm with his hips to make you fall apart, clenching and fluttering around him as more slick coats his cock.

He groans at the feeling, shivering at the way you clamp down on him. “W-where? Where do you want it, baby?” He asks you, knowing he’s about to burst at any second, the way you’re absolutely destroying him.

“In me, please,” you beg, and it’s an offer Frankie can’t refuse. He lets go, filling you with the hot, sticky seed. You whine at the feeling, desperately gripping his skin.

He whines your name in your ear as he comes down, shivering and pulling out, lying next to you on top of the ruined lingerie.

“That was expensive,” you whimper as you limply toy with a strap.

“I’ll buy you a new set. Two new sets,” he tells you, breathless and sweaty. “God, you looked so good in that,” he sighs, chuckling a little. He gets up and wanders to the bathroom, getting a warm, wet cloth and coming back to clean you up.

The sight of his cum dripping from inside you is almost enough to make him hard again, but he bites his lip and wipes you down, tenderly kissing your thigh. “Thank you,” you murmur weakly and smile down at him.

“Doing my job,” he teases and kisses your knee before cleaning himself off and tossing the cloth in the laundry. When he lies down next to you, he takes the discarded lingerie and throws it off the bed, wrapping you in his arms. “You’re so amazing,” he chuckles. “God, I love you.”

“I love you too, baby,” you hum and kiss his face, nuzzling your nose into the curve of his flushed and dewey neck. “I have stuff to make for dinner.”

The reminder that it’s only 5:00 or so makes Frankie laugh a little. “You don’t have to. You’ve done enough for me tonight,” he murmurs, kissing your temple lovingly.

“Never said I was doing it alone,” you chuckle sleepily, your eyes slipping shut. “You’re helping.”

“Damn right I am. Maybe we take a nap first though,” Frankie says as he pulls you closer in his arms.

“A nap sounds good,” you nod and kiss his cheek. “I love you.”

“Love you too, baby.”

[toast-the-unknowing]

Hi there, toast. Cutting to the chase: you're one of my favorite writers — not just one of my favorite fanfic writers. your short stories for the raven cycle are some of the funniest, tightest, emotionally devastating, well-crafted works of fiction i've encountered in awhile — better than a lot """"real-world, published"""" stuff. I kind of want to know more about how you got to this point. I think you've mentioned a background in screenwriting? But I don't think that's your day job? 1/?

2/? Really, I'm asking because you seem to have found a way to write regularly — to develop your chops and publish your art in a way that seems emotionally satisfying for you. to an outsider like myself, you seem to have struck a balance between living a life that pays the bills, and artmaking in a way that feeds your soul. you might not feel that way, i don't know. i'm someone who studied writing in college and am now wondering if and how i can still water that seed....

3/? when the reality is i also need to make money to live. i guess i'm curious about your life model right now, and if you're happy with the way you're currently fulfilling yourself creatively. do you want to be a """""published writer""""" someday? is your job one that is also creatively fulfilling, or is it more to pay the bills so that you can do your own creative projects in your free time?

4/4 I know my question isn't very clear, and I'm not sure it's even one question. the point is, i admire you, and you seem to be in a habit of writing creatively, even though i think you have an unrelated day job, and that balance seems mysterious and desirable to me.

Thank you for your kind words, Anon! I have attempted to write something helpful, but it got very long, so I am putting it behind a cut:

Keeping your art alive when you have to work an unrelated job is not easy. Struggling with it does not mean that you're failing, or that it can't be done, or that you won't get better at it down the road. It's also not the sort of thing where you hit equilibrium and it's all smooth sailing from there. I have gotten better at fitting my writing into my life, and I've figured out strategies and coping mechanisms and how to be better at just making myself do it even if I feel "blocked," but there are still stretches of time where it's harder to manage. Those periods don't last forever, and if it sometimes gets worse, it also sometimes gets better.

I suspect you know all of this, Anon, because you sound like a reasonable person and because you balanced writing and schoolwork, which can itself be tricky. I say it anyway because this is exactly the kind of subject where mean little thoughts like to sneak into your head and make you doubt yourself, and I think we could all use a reminder.

There are many writers who will say that you have to write every single day. Often they will say that you have to write at the same time every single day, or that you need to wake up early to write before work. These writers depress and demotivate me, because I don't actually have a writing "habit" in that there's no schedule or daily goal or set of standards involved. Some days I write a lot and some days I don't write at all. Shaming myself about that fact has never been helpful.

What has been helpful: an increased understanding of my writing process. Realizing I don't have to outline? Helpful! Realizing that generating ideas and fleshing out scenes and shaping the arc of a story and making it pretty are all different skills and some days one comes easier than the others? Helpful! Realizing that I tend to have an "a-hah" moment that tells me what the story is about, after which it's easier to write the story? Helpful! Realizing that if I can't think of an adjective or a line of dialogue or a joke, I can just put an asterisk and come back to it later, instead of halting the entire writing process until I come up with it? Helpful!

I don't know if any of these particular things would be helpful to you, because your writing process probably works differently than mine. Somebody out there absolutely does need to outline before they can write, or so I assume from the fact that it is mandated in virtually every book on writing I have ever read. You studied writing in school, so it's possible that you already have a great understanding of your process; it's also possible you have internalized a lot of other people's ideas of what you're writing should look like. Most of what I know about how I write was learned in the last few years, not in school.

It is also possible that you have a good understanding of what your process looks like when that gets to be the thing that takes up the majority of your time. In which case, you probably need to consider your life and your schedule as it is now. I know, for example, that I don't get much writing done of weekend days where I stay in bed late, even though I still end up with more free time than I'd have on a weekday, so if I want to write on a weekend I need to get up. Are there any times of day, or the days of the week, or the places where it is easier to write? What factors make it harder to write? Can you minimize those factors? When you can't, because you livelihood depends on them, can you acknowledge them as a fact of life and forgive yourself for being affected by them?

It's unpleasant but undeniable that working impacts writing. We aren't able to spend the time we'd like to on writing. We don't have the energy and focus that we had in school, when our writing was our main responsibility. Now our primary responsibility is making enough money to survive, and if that makes us sad to think about, well, it's only going to make us sadder if on top of that we try to hold ourselves to the amount of writing we'd do if that weren't true.

It isn’t strictly a numbers game where more time = more writing, which I think can be reassuring for those of us who don’t get as much time as we’d like for writing. I was unemployed or working part-time for the entirety of 2016 and I did not do more writing in 2016 than I am now. I had more time, but I was much more of a mess, as a person, and I wasn't as dedicated to writing. In a counter-intuitive way, I think it can help to have creative outlets besides writing. It does take time away from something that you already don’t get as much time as you want to do, but it means that you have a place to be creative even when the words aren't coming, a place with less pressure and lower stakes. I've done improv pretty casually for the last couple of years, and aside from the fact that I think improv in particular can be extremely helpful for writers, it means that when I've been unhappy with my writing, I could show up to improv and do a silly voice or shuffle around in a crabwalk and know that I had created something.

These are some things that have helped me write while also working: Improv. Mindfulness about writing. Mindfulness about life in general. Prioritizing my writing (guys, I watch so much less television than I used to). Therapy and medication, to be honest. Remembering why I am excited about the projects that I’m working on. Giving myself freedom to start new stories while also encouraging myself to finish old ones. Having an audience to share things with, because it is hard to write without knowing that anyone will ever read what you are pouring so much of yourself into.

It has taken me a few days to answer this, Anon, because I wanted to give a considered response, and also just because adult life! so busy! I keep coming back to the questions of whether I am emotionally satisfied with the writing I am doing, and whether I have a good balance between my writing and my work. Because I really think that I am creatively satisfied right now, and if I am mostly aware of that most of the time, I don't know that I'd really phrased it like that to myself before. If I had then I had forgotten it. And it's a powerful and wonderful thing to be able to say that to myself.

I have a degree in screenwriting, but I have never made a career of it and am not pursuing one now. The dream used to be writing for television. Before that the dream was to be a traditionally published author. Now...I don't know what the dream is. I would like to do original work again some day. I have a novel in my head that is very important to me, whose characters helped me get through some hard times, and I want to give that novel the life that it deserves. I would like to do something with my screenwriting degree at some point, although it will likely never make me money. Sometimes it feels like failure that I don't have a new dream, and that I gave up on the old ones. But for the most part, for now, I'm very happy writing fanfiction. I've written a lot of stories, particularly in the last few years, that I am very proud of.

But I don't actually have a good balance between art and work, inasmuch as my art makes me happy and my work...doesn't. I have a low-level office job in a field that I'm not passionate about or well-suited for. I don't get out of my job a lot of the things that I do get out of writing -- challenge, investment, a chance to be creative, self-direction, fulfillment, purpose. I have never worked a job where I got any of those things, and it is starting to wear me down.

To be fair: "my job pays me a decent wage and gives me great health insurance but it isn't satisfying" is a privileged thing to complain about, and I'm aware of that. I'm also aware that some people handle these situations just fine, that some people don’t mind a job that demands a minimum of energy and time since that leaves them more to put into their art. You may be one of these people! I am discovering that I am not. Getting no sense of accomplishment from my job contributes negatively to my overall mental and emotional health, which is sucky all on its own, but has the additional effect of impacting my writing.

It's a tricky problem, though. I don't, at present, want to make a living off of writing (and such a career would be precarious), but my current resume and skill set doesn't qualify me for much of anything besides the work I'm already doing (thanks, screenwriting degree). Any attempt to find a job that's more fulfilling would likely involve a big investment of time, money, and/or effort in some kind of school and training, and then...I'd be in a job that demanded more from me, and even if it made me happier than my current job does, how much would that leave me to put into my writing?

I don't know if any of this has been helpful to you. It is perhaps not a clear answer to a question that felt clear when I read it but that my mind muddled up along the way. You may find that once you hit a balance between writing and working, you don't mind the day job grind in the same way I do. You may decide that you do want to pursue writing as a career. You may still be figuring out the employment situation at all and my woes may be worse than irrelevant.

But the timing of this ask is funny; I am soon going to apply to an educational program that would prepare me for a new career in a totally different field, and the thought of how this will impact my writing has very much been on my mind. In the past when I've thought about doing anything like this, that question has kept me from going forward: won't that be less of your time, less of your energy, less of you for your writing? I think this is a real concern with a basis in truth: if I get into this program I am going to have a lot less time and energy for anything outside of it, and I will need to again adjust my expectations of what my writing can look like in my circumstances. But I think that this question is also fear and perfectionism talking, using my writing as a weapon against me, and I'm tired of it.

Balance is a funny thing. I'm actually terrible at basically anything that requires balance: biking, rollerskating, gymnastics, ice skating, you name it. I don't see how anyone pulls it off. You can lean too far one way only to fall over the other way when you try to even out. You can take a turn and suddenly the road is uphill or downhill or bumpy, and whatever you were doing before to stay upright isn't cutting it. You can be going along just fine and then, for absolutely no reason, you're wobbling all over the place. But you can also do a hell of a lot of wobbling without ever falling down.

I think it's just about...paying attention to what's happening around you. Paying attention to what you're feeling and what you want. Not getting fooled by something you're supposed to want if you don't actually want it. Figuring out the things that you need, and the things that would make your life better, and the things that you'd like, and prioritize those accordingly.

I sure hope that's how it works, at least, because that's all I've got. I might royally fuck up my life in the next couple of months, but if I do, I'll adjust and keep going. It can't be any worse than fucking ice skating.

Best of luck, Anon.

Jon Cryer Teases Lex's Agenda & Sociopathy in 'Crisis on Infinite Earths'

The Crisis is here, and that means that the Arrowverse heroes have to work with people they may not particularly like ... including none other than Lex Luthor (Jon Cryer).

And this comes as the heroes have just lost one of their own: Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell). "Team morale is at its lowest point at the start of Episode 2," Cryer told TV Insider before correcting himself with, "Actually, as bad as it is at the start of Episode 2, it gets worse."

And outside of those from Supergirl, Lex has zero connections to the rest of the Arrowverse. "Lex is a wildcard in that whole situation, because he comes in with a completely different agenda than anybody else," he continued. "He's sociopathically oblivious to the pain of everyone else, and that's why he's such a threat."

Here, Cryer previews what's still to come in the epic crossover.

Kevin Conroy Says Bruce Wayne Is 'a Very Bruised Individual' in Arrowverse's 'Crisis'

Kevin Conroy Says Bruce Wayne Is 'a Very Bruised Individual' in Arrowverse's 'Crisis'

The actor discusses playing the character onscreen for the first time and teases Bruce's interaction with Batwoman Kate Kane.

Does Lex represent a sign of hope, someone who died and was brought back?

Jon Cryer: That's a good point. But it always seems so arbitrary. The Monitor sets loose these characters and we're all wandering around going, "what's our purpose in this?" Lex has this incredible intellect, but he doesn't know any more than anybody else. So he just gets into his usual single-minded, "me, me, me," attitude and goes about his business.

Speaking of that resurrection, has dying and being brought back changed Lex at all?

It has changed him. He's seen death. There's no way to go through that and not be altered by it. What it seems he's taken from it is an incredibly clear desire for that to never, ever, ever to occur again, and so he's even more single-mindedly focused on setting his own agenda and not caring about what anybody else wants or need.

We briefly saw Lex with The Monitor at the end of Supergirl 508. What does Lex think of this cosmic being and what he said to him? It's gotta feel pretty good to be told they need his mind and he's going to be a hero, despite always considering himself to be one.

He considers this guy kind of a blow-hard nuisance more than anything else. He comes in and makes these grand pronouncements, and it's just, say what you mean. He's really tired of him, frankly. He has such disdain for every other being besides him that he doesn't think The Monitor is anything particularly special.

We even see that when he tells The Monitor they have to talk about his sister.

Yes, exactly. I have some conditions...

How much does he know about what Lena's been up to and what can you say about what's to come for those two?

I love working with Katie [McGrath]. No matter what, Lex is going to be messing with his younger sister. He's a bully, sociopath, basically your nightmare older sibling is what Lex is. But she is brilliant, and she is capable of beating him actually, and she's capable of resisting him through just being who she is. They'll always be good foils for each other. He's not aware of what's happened while he's gone, so if and when they do have interactions that I'm not allowed to talk about, it's going to be loaded with all of that baggage. Plus, you don't know what exactly he wanted to say to The Monitor, and I do. [Laughs]

In one of the trailers, there's a news report of Lex Luthor killing the Man of Steel. Can you say if that Lex is your Lex?

I can't say. How can I phrase this? Lex Luthor would consider a universe that had a thousand Supermen that he had a chance to kill just more opportunities for fun.

Are there any surprises in terms of who has the easiest and who has the hardest time working with Lex?

Nobody's really working with Lex. He's a chaos agent and he's pretty much making any situation he's in worse for the superheroes, but you do get to see why The Monitor thought that would be helpful in the situation. None of the heroes really get along with Lex. In fact, there's a running gag in many of the episodes about to what extent people will put up with Lex's behavior. If you've seen that still of Batwoman with Lex up against the wall, that interaction did not go well.

Speaking of that photo (above), what can you say about that dynamic?

Batwoman has zero patience for Lex.

How are things between Lex and Kara given all their history and the fact that he’s the one who told Lena her secret, but everyone has to accept he's there?

Because The Monitor has decreed that Lex has some contribution to make to this situation, they all very grudgingly have to put up with him to some extent. I can say there's a fair amount of interaction with Kara and she's horribly conflicted the whole time because he's the worst of the worst.

What else can you preview about the crossover? How he reacts to the heroes around him?

I can tell you what my reaction was. Just because I was the only guy who wasn't in a super suit for a fair amount of it, you do feel oddly, you want to stick up for humanity when you get a chance. You're like, the only straight-up human here is a real jerk. You get a little defensive sometimes. And also as an actor, you work with Grant [Gustin] and Melissa [Benoist] and Stephen and Caity [Lotz] and all of them. The physical demands on these people are just enormous and I go, wow, they're 28. I'm no longer 28 and I've got to be in these same situations as well, so it was very demanding, but so impressive what the number 1s were doing.

TV Insider.

[sol1056]

I've just read that word of god post you've reblogged and i agree that if it's not in the canon then it's not in the story. but what is the canon exactly? if we take vld as an example, can the extra materials like the guide books or interviews be considered canon when they give us information that is never talked about in the source material, that is in the show itself?

Canon, at its simplest, is “what the community consider the official record.” Its ‘things recognized as authentic,’ and by extension also ‘a standard by which something is judged [as genuine]’. Frex, to say ‘this album is modern jazz’ requires comparing the music to the modern jazz canon. 

For fiction, canon applies the idea of an ‘official record’ to the story itself. The purpose is to delineate the ‘actual’ (genuine) story, and the standards by which new stories (sequels, spin-offs, etc) become canon. The common standards tend to be: who created it and/or was involved, form of distribution (ie official channels), and how widespread it was. Frex, a song played once in a small club in Chicago and never recorded would probably not be considered part of the ‘canon’ of modern jazz (that is, would not be used as the ‘standard’ by which newer works could be judged, because the work is too obscure). 

That brings us to the next level (and often the most fiercely debated): which texts are deuterocanonical. It’s a fifty-cent word but it’s exactly the word we need, here. It means ‘secondary canon’ and it’s texts that could be canon but fell short by some measure. Different author (or ghostwritten), written years later or years earlier, retcons everything, completely different story but with cameo of canon character, and so on. 

Adaptations are often deuterocanonical: a book to a movie, a movie to a TV series, a TV series to graphic novels. Each media has different storytelling conventions, so the story changes, and if you were a fan of the ‘real’ story, you might see the adaptation as just a shade too different. Plenty of fans of the Fullmetal Alchemist manga see the first anime (which diverged wildly) as a secondary canon — interesting, but not crucial; fewer say the same of the second anime, which was much more faithful.  

Continuations also tend to be deuterocanonical, especially when the media changes. If your intro to a fandom includes the warning that everyone ignores a certain continuation, sequel, or spin-off, the community may have decided the later works are a secondary canon. This dismissal comes with the usual flamewars, at least until the fandom agrees to disagree.  

Best criteria is whether parallel or subsequent stories impact or develop the ‘main’ story. Agents of SHIELD is a spin-off of the Avengers movie series, and it pivots mid-story due to movie events. The TV show may be deuterocanonical for movie fans, but the movies are canonical for TV show fans, because those stories have significant impact on the events in the TV show’s storyline.

And then we get to words about the story: meta. Tolkien’s estate has published his drafts and notes; these books satisfy canon per authenticity (written by Tolkien), and stamped as official by the estate. You don’t have to read every rough draft to get the final version, so Tolkien’s notes aren’t really primary canon, but they probably would be considered deuterocanonical. 

The same doesn’t apply when it’s just anyone writing meta, even a published Field Guide or Annotated Glossary — a fancier and footnoted version of the same kind of meta fans have always written on their favorite works. No matter how well-researched, that third-party meta is not canon, no matter who wrote it or where it was published.  

And then we get to word-of-god, however it’s relayed (panel quotes, interviews, tweets, blog posts, etc). Word-of-god, like handbooks and marketing material, are not the story; it’s talk about the story. It’s meta, and as such it can never be more than – at best – secondary canon, and even then under limited circumstances. 

The next thing to consider in word-of-god is: who’s the god, here? It’s easy enough with Tolkien, Rowling, Kipling, Austin, any one-author work where one voice did the bulk of shaping the ideas and words and story. It’s another matter when we get into multi-creator, collaborative stories like movies, television shows, even stage plays or dance where the work passes through multiple hands on the way to becoming a final product. 

If the actor chose to read those lines as though the character were in love, that has an impact on your experience of the story. Is it enough of an impact? Does that make the actor right to say, “this character is in love”? Does the actor have that authority? Or an executive producer who didn’t write the script, direct the episode, voice any of the lines, storyboard any scenes, or animate any frames? How do we measure the contribution of ‘enabling others to create’ to determine whether word-of-god applies? What about a story editor whose outline was informed entirely by exec notes? Can we say the writer of a particular episode even has word-of-god authority, if every line was altered by the actors to a smaller or larger degree? 

Beyond that — and this applies from one-author texts up to multi-season series with a production staff in the hundreds — we cannot assume the author (if there is a single identifiable hand in the story) actually knows the story they’ve written. We writers can tell you what we meant to write, and what we wanted to write, but what we ended up with isn’t always where we’d planned to be. Hell, sometimes we don’t see the themes until a long time after the work is written, the same way we don’t always see where the story’s failed on other counts (representation, gender, cliches, plot holes, etc). 

I could add a lot of words, but here I’m just going to quote some of TV Tropes at you, since the entry does a good job of covering all the bases. 

A number of people reject [word-of-god]… If the creator had wanted a certain fact to be canon, the thinking goes, they should have included it in the work to begin with. [Others] go even further, considering the uncertainty and ambiguity of canon to be a good thing… Wimsatt and Beardsley’s “The Intentional Fallacy” and Barthes’ Death of the Author essay both argue that the interpretation of a work cannot be limited to attempts to discern the “author’s intentions.”

Another thorny issue is … collaborators may not actually agree with interpretations of their story that weren’t made explicit in the work. This is especially likely if they no longer work together, and particularly if they had a real-life falling out. In this case, there are multiple “Gods” given potentially contradictory explanations, so whose word is to be considered correct?

If a story requires the author pop up to explain each scene in some nightmarish reverse-MST3K scenario, then the story has failed. Point blank, full stop, do not pass go, do not collect two hundred dollars. The story has failed. 

But let’s pretend the story is fine, and you just can’t take lying awake at night wondering about that damn watermelon. There’s a place and time for creator explanations; easter eggs (like in-jokes and homages) definitely count, and can be a lot of fun. There’s nothing wrong with word-of-god, after all, so long as it’s taken in moderation. In the end, it’s just a slightly more knowledgeable voice, but never let it drown out your voice or your experience. 

Ultimately, this incessant emphasis on word-of-god has two sources. 

One is the current penchant for throwing wild swerves as a way to combat audience boredom. These get called ‘plot twists’ but in the hands of less-skilled creators, they’re just cheap shocks. Pushed too far, they’ll break the story. Groundwork and foreshadowing are left off the page or screen for fear the audience will ‘figure it out’ too soon, and the result is an audience struggling to make sense of the quagmire. Word-of-god doesn’t fix the story, but it can at least provide closure. You know why the watermelon was there, and you can move on to obsess about something else. 

The other source is our immediate and seeming direct access to a lot of creators: writers, directors, storyboard artists, voice actors, producers, all up and down the line. We could sit down and think hard about the story (if the story isn’t so broken that’s moot, at least), or we could just tweet or blog or tag a creator and ask. Or hope someone asks our question at a panel, or a podcast, or some other interview. Why bother with meta, when you can get a slightly more-informed meta from someone who looks like an authority? 

Hey, authors have been getting questions from readers since Lady Murasaki sat down to write. No, the real issue are creators who’ve come to crave (and encourage) the audience asking how to interpret the story. It’s a pretty heady thing, getting that kind of attention, and it can get away from you really fast. What began as a simple question about indestructible fruit becomes an ongoing interpretative dance by the author on behalf of the work. 

It’s flattering to have the audience clamoring for your words, but… it’s not about you, as the creator. It’s about the story. A creator needs to step back and let the story do the talking. The sooner some creators remember that, the sooner some fandoms will calm the fsck down. 

Primary or secondary canon, word-of-god or radio silence; in the end, the story’s got to stand on its own. If it can’t do that, no amount of explanation in the world will prop the story back up again.

Tips For Beautiful Healthy Eyes

Did you know that your eyes are the windows to your soul? That’s why it’s important to take care of them and keep them healthy. And for those of us who wear glasses, keeping our eyes in tip-top shape is even more essential. Fortunately, there are several things you can do to naturally help maintain the beauty and health of your eyes. In this blog post, we will explore five tips for beautiful and healthy eyes that will help you maximize the potential of your most precious sense. Read on to learn more about how you can make sure that your vision remains crystal clear.

The right way to clean your eyes

Cleaning your eyes is important for maintaining good vision and preventing infection. Here are some tips for doing it the right way: 1. Always wash your hands before touching your eyes. This will help to prevent the spread of bacteria. 2. Use a clean, soft cloth to gently wipe away any debris from your eyelids and lashes. 3. Use a mild soap and water to cleanse your eyelids if they are particularly dirty. Be sure to rinse all of the soap off afterwards. 4. Never use harsh chemicals or rubbing motions when cleaning your eyes, as this can damage them. 5. If you wear contact lenses, be sure to clean them properly and follow all manufacturer's instructions.

How to get rid of dark circles under your eyes

If you're wondering how to get rid of dark circles under your eyes, you're not alone. Millions of people suffer from this problem, and there are a number of different causes. While some people are genetically predisposed to dark circles, others develop them as a result of lifestyle choices or health conditions. There are a number of different ways to get rid of dark circles under your eyes, and the best method will depend on the cause. If your dark circles are due to genetics, there's not much you can do to change that. However, if they're due to lifestyle choices or health conditions, there are a number of things you can do to improve the situation. If you smoke cigarettes, drink excessive amounts of alcohol, or don't get enough sleep, those are all lifestyle choices that can contribute to dark circles under your eyes. If you make an effort to quit smoking, cut back on alcohol, and get at least 7 hours of sleep each night, you should see a noticeable improvement in the appearance of your dark circles. There are also a number of health conditions that can cause dark circles under your eyes. These include allergies, sinus problems, and even thyroid issues. If you suspect that one of these may be the cause of your dark circles, it's important to see a doctor so that you can get proper treatment. Once you've determined the cause of your dark circles, you can start working on getting rid of them. 

Foods that are good for your eyes

There are certain foods that are good for your eyes and help to keep them healthy and beautiful. Here are some of the best foods for your eyes: 1. Carrots: Carrots are rich in beta-carotene, which is converted into vitamin A in the body. Vitamin A is essential for vision, as it helps to produce the light-sensitive pigment in the retina. It also helps to protect the surface of the eye (cornea) from damage. Eating carrots regularly can help to reduce the risk of developing cataracts and macular degeneration. 2. Green leafy vegetables: Green leafy vegetables, such as spinach and kale, are packed with nutrients that are good for your eyesight. These include lutein and zeaxanthin, which act as antioxidants and help to protect the eye from free radical damage. They also help to filter out harmful blue light rays and improve night vision. 3. Fish: Fish such as salmon, tuna, sardines and mackerel are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are beneficial for eye health. Omega-3 fatty acids help to protect against dry eye syndrome, macular degeneration and cataracts. They can also improve blood flow to the eyes and reduce inflammation throughout the body. 4. Eggs: Eggs contain high levels of zinc, selenium and vitamin A, all of which are important nutrients for eye health. Zinc is involved

How often you should see an eye doctor

It is generally recommended that you see an eye doctor at least once a year. However, if you are experiencing any problems with your vision, you should see an eye doctor as soon as possible.

hey i've been meaning to ask this, but would you mind explaining to me in general terms (or specific, if you're so inclined, i like detailed explanations but I don't want to give the impression that I expect them), like, What Happened With Alex Semin That Makes Everyone So Weird About Him? I know you've referenced a complicated legacy that makes caps fans weird about him, and maybe some way that caps fans/ western hockey culture/the nhl wronged him, but wikipedia was not very helpful (1/?)

3/3) None of that as presented seems, like, worthy of the level of weirdness/erasure that you've mentioned/hinted at, so I'm assuming there's a lot more complexity and detail involved here, which I would love to understand.

First, I need to say this, you are an utter doll. You’re out there reading and questioning and investigating further and it’s all so great.

And you’re right, on dry paper the whole thing is pretty weird.

There isn’t a smoking gun, here. I’m not going to point at a particular coach or GM and tell you, “They made a poor or a prejudiced decision, and the rest of us are fine.” A staggering number of things happened to happen to Semin. Each one of them didn’t mean so much by themselves. But I think the fact that they happened, and kept happening, and were expected to happen, all to him says a lot about us.

What there is is a context, and then there’s a story here. I think what a lot of us missed at the time, and are still missing, is how they fit together.

So I’m gonna drag us all through both. Congratulations: you get two posts.

I’m traveling through Montréal, so I come down to grab coffee in just a jersey and my little pink running shorts.  I’m not surprised when a man stops me. He asks what’s up, am I Russian, am I a Caps fan. “Oh, yeah,” I say.

“Yeah, yeah. They’re a great team every year,” he says, for the benefit of the man next to him. “No luck in the postseason though!”

The second man is Danish, and nervous, stuck between us. “You have a big rivalry?” he asks.

I have a personal rivalry with Les Habitants. “Oh, no,” I say.

I negotiate. If I admit I grew up watching the Canadiens as my hometown team, the first man will quiz me. So it’s friendly overture #2, angling towards him to show him the back of my sweater. The first man isn’t looking. “My favorite guy, Alexander Syomin, he played up here for a bit.”

I pronounce it that way, Сёмин, not an Anglicized eh. We can come back to that.

He admires my sweater. “Good player?” he tries.

“Oh, yeah, real skilled player,” the first man says, checking back in. And then, like he’s watching Semin backcheck right now, like the insight just struck him, “Lazy, though.”

“Oh, no,” I say, reassuring the Dane. “That’s just he plays Russian hockey, it just looks different than Canadian style, so some people think it looks like that.”

First man says, “Ovechkin doesn’t play like that.”

Of course he says that.

“Oh,” I say, laugh, cut him off. “Nobody plays like Ovechkin.”

(The Dane is looking between us like he’s about to ask how these people died.)

Something percolates through the first man’s mind. “Who’s your favorite player?”

And I turn around and walk away. He says, “Oh,” reading my shoulders. He hadn’t heard a word except the opening to tell me what he already Knew.

Listen, I don’t like feeling rude. But I was about to be late to interview for a graduate research position in hockey biomechanics, and I already knew I needed to go put on pants and fold Semin’s name back into a suitcase if I wanted them to respect me.

I’m not being dramatic so much as I’m trying to show the odd way that we all know things.  That man knew I wasn’t an expert, because I don’t look like one. We all know my favorite player isn’t a good player because he doesn’t look like one.

(And I don’t mean the ethnocentrism and neurotypical judgements we paint all over his face, although that’ll come back into it.)

G, you might be saying, that guy was a stock character of a misogynist hockey fan. Of course he only saw what he expected to. Well, here’s one thing: we all kind of think like that. Of course we don’t know when we aren’t seeing things that conflict with our view. Just keep that in mind when we talk about Russia.

And when we watch hockey, a good amount of the time, our eyes are telling us real persuasive narratives. There are certain visual cues in the game that we think mean good, make someone valuable. They signal to us that the player is playing ‘well’, and once we’re hooked on them that reading is hard to shake. Experienced analysts like Steve Dangle will talk about this: after decades watching hockey, they still get caught up in all the great-looking things a player is doing and miss underlying weakness, or get stuck on what a player doesn’t do and miss what they contribute overall.

(This is why statistics are valuable and controversial: they can be used to reveal patterns, like how a player who scores plenty of pretty goals is also on the ice for a suspicious number of goals against, and sometimes that conflicts with what seems obvious to the eye-test.)

Ethnicity comes back into it because what we think looks valuable depends where we’re from.

Later, I’m laughing over it to my buddy. She’s an older fan than me, and I admire her so much, because she listens to me, and she says, “You know, I’ve been meaning to ask you—I don’t know what you mean when you keep saying Russian hockey.”

Context: Soviet and Russian Hockey

Any moment that I have the puck and you do not seems like it should be good for me.

But if you’re allowed to just come up and smash me, and I just hang out holding it, you’re going to try to take it away. Some of the time you’ll manage and then you’ll have it and you can score goals with it. So maybe I want to risk trying to score goals with it before you do.

That’s good old North American.

Oh, I’m sorry, did you want this? Did you want to try to score some goals with it? Sure, I suppose you can borrow it for a bit.  

Catch me first.

That’s Soviet.

This is a difference of philosophy; it’s a preference in coaching and play-making. There are some kids who weren’t considered particularly naturally talented who would be in Russia, and the other way around. But people also train to meet those standards, so by the time you’re in your teens or early twenties, you’re caught somewhere between the abilities and inclinations you were born with and the values you shaped yourself to try to fulfill.

Imagine a benchful of Evgeny Kuznetsovs.

Soviet hockey players were skaters first. At age 4 or 5, they would be learning skating fundamentals for an hour two or three days a week. Then an hour and half. At 10, they would skate every day. At 12, two practices a day.

“We put kids on skates at a very young age. Much earlier than in the U.S. and Canada. There are advantages and disadvantages to this. On one hand early development may influence game thinking, on the other skating may become a burden and be detrimental for the health.”—Sergei Gimaev (USSR champion)

I’m quoting Sergei because that’s my stance: on the one hand, and on the other. There’s a lot to say about the Soviet hockey schools. Athleticism was patriotism in the Soviet Union, as it is in many states, and the treatment of athletes was frequently disturbing—but it’s always more complex than a dystopia.

Their eerily effortless technical skating contributed to the outside image of the “Red Machine”, a North American narrative than Soviet skaters were only trained to be interchangeable pieces without any fun or independence or Canadian grit, but the Soviet style also valued a child-like intellectual creativity.

“Kids were always allowed to improvise on the ice,” according to Dmitri Efimov. “We surprised our opponents with the fact that we were difficult to ‘read,’ our actions couldn’t be anticipated.”  

This play, from hockey-graphs.com, is a great example.Vladimir Krutov, Igor Larionov, and Sergei Makarov skate so tightly they seem about to combine into a single giant mecha, luring in the Canadians, and then fly past them.

All that skill and creative energy fed into the endless, eternal, interminable passing. Each player on the line swung around each other, dragging the opposition into position until one of them found a chance to shoot. The goal of Soviet hockey wasn’t to score goals: holding possession and winding the clock down was pretty much an end in and of itself.

“For me, I would love to have empty net at end of season, then (have someone else) score a goal you know? For me, that’s how my father teach me and how my whole coaches when I grown up teach me. You better to give your partner empty netter than you score it. It’s in my heart.”

So, Evgeny Evgenyevich…if you’re always giving the goal to your teammates, who’s taking the shots?

Ovechkin isn’t like that

Kristi St. Allain of St. Thomas University wrote a dissertation on why people say this. It was adapted and accepted for publication by the Sociology of Sport Journal in 2016, it’s 43 pages, and it’s worth a read.  

There’s a more technical take, which I think is also interesting: yes, he is like that.

Ovechkin is a monster. He’ll be once in the world, not once in a lifetime. Comparing any Russian player to him is pretty pointless, but comparing him to them is actually useful, because we can see that Ovechkin plays a specific role in Russian hockey.

Hockey was at its lowest low in Russia in the ‘90s, after the dissolution of the Soviet national team. Everyone had gotten used to Soviet hockey, and that was over. The new nation was wondering what the new Russian hockey was going to be, and it mostly seemed like it sucked.

And then they got...these two.

The Aleksandrs revolutionized Russian hockey by building a new role for themselves: the specialized sharpshooter.

I’m not saying there weren’t skilled shooters before them in the Soviet system, but those teams made plays in a more balanced way, effective divvying up shot attempts between three fairly equal forwards.

Two years older than Ovechkin, Semin was the first player to prove what that shot could do. In 2008 he led Russia to the first World Championship gold since 1993, against Canada in Quebec City, ending over a decade of low self-esteem in a moment of transcendently wicked awesomeness to a generation who grew up after but still very much under the weight of the Soviet Union.

Arguably, he’s the one who told us all what Russian hockey was going to be. 

Sasha and Sasha both stood out from their teammates for their spectacular aim and strength. Semin’s wrist-shot was described “arguably the most powerful in the game” during his years in the NHL. (And that’s from SB Nation, not just me and Kuznetsov.)

Instead of skating and passing until they happened to be in position for a particular shot, both Semin and Ovechkin would deliberately take up a shooting position, and their linemates  would pass between themselves, dragging the opposition around until they could send the puck to the Sasha for a shot.

Taking those shots isn’t selfish: it’s a new way of using their unique skill to play for their teammates. 

At this point in his career, we often get to see Ovi skate straight to his office and crouch there in active waiting. He’ll slide a little up and down in search of openings as the other team chase his center and right winger: “he’s the best in the world at adjusting to passes.”

Semin would circle. He hovered over the blue line like some large and carnivorous bird, allowing him to either swoop in for a shot, or swing and pass back and forth with his center to set up his opposite winger. He could essentially shoot like a second Ovechkin or partner with Nick Backstrom to hold possession.

We can succeed

There’s something heart-wrenching to me about that quote from Kuznetsov. Because many Russian players don’t succeed in the NHL; they don’t fit in the spaces allowed for them in the Canadian conception of hockey. That should hardly count as a failing: like Kuznetsov said, Canadians don’t know how to play Soviet or Russian hockey. And they aren’t asked to.

Do you know how many Russian players are in the NHL right now?

It’s 39.

(Less if we set aside the goalies, which arguably we should here).  That’s barely more than one per franchise, and that shakes out to mean something pretty profound for players who have it in their hearts to try to match what their teammates are doing, but who by their late teens and twenties simply can’t reshape the entire way they play the game.

Semin is a spectacular player in context. So is Ovechkin. For most of his career Ovi’s context was Semin, and Ovi is quite honest about that.

Semin was the best possession player on the Washington Capitals in 2012, while also seeing the highest percentage of scoring chances. He was a 40+ goal scorer while being someone else’s main man for assists. 

I’m going to come back and to talk through his actual story in order, but this is the first thing to keep in mind: 

All that circling didn’t look good. When he looked for passes, waited for scoring chances, played high-scoring but still play-making Russian hockey, he looked lazy.

I don't know if you've talked about this before but why do you think so many ISFPs mistype as INFJs and ENFJs? (I mean, like personally what do you think)

A bunch of things:

1. ISFPs tend to get off the easiest of the sensors when it comes to terrible descriptions in that art and nature-loving are both pretty accurate in my experience (not all ISFPs are artistic but a good number are, and those who aren’t tend to still have a good eye for aesthetics even if they’re not personally a creator). However, they still get a very one-dimensional portrayal in a lot of descriptions whereas NFJs get a giant gushing treatise. This can be filed under “why lots of people (not just ISFPs) mistype as INFJs and ENFJs”

2. A lot of INFJ/ENFJ descriptions tend to be very universal to either people-oriented introverts, spiritual people, empathetic people, or people who have a sense of being special but are also to some extent insecure. ISFPs are usually many or all of those things. File this also under “why lots of people, especially feelers, mistype as INFJs and ENFJs”.

3. Fi+Se can mean that ISFPs are quite outgoing, emotionally expressive, and at ease with others, but still noticeably introverted. Bad descriptions of Fi often paint Fi users as kind of an emo-yet-emotionally-private tortured soul who feels chronically misunderstood. A healthy ISFP therefore might relate more to descriptions of Fe as the expressive, friendly function than Fi.

4. INFJs formerly got a lot of credit for being involved in activism and social justice and I’m sure many are involved (and the tides on that being Fe vs. Fi have turned though honestly I think it’s probably an even split) but ISFPs often are too (direct action usually requires using some sensing functions, guys) so they might see themselves in that.

5. An ISFP might be able to identify Se-Ni as their perceiving axis and also recognize that they’re definitely a feeler but think their Ni is higher, either because they’re looping, in the process of developing Ni, or because descriptions of Ni are often universal to people (having goals) and descriptions of Se are often terrible (skydiving).

6. And finally as with all mistyping, since we’re in an online community where anyone can contribute content, once you have a few prominent mistyped people, others will compare themselves to the “INFJ” who is actually an ISFP and type themselves as INFJ because they seem like the same type, and they are, but they’re both ISFPs, and it just snowballs from there.

Basically, the same general reasons why people mistype as INFJ and ENFJ a lot: those types still have a lot of severely overblown descriptions as some kind of unicorn saint when actually they’re just normal people with the normal number of flaws.

Warning that I do tend to get really salty about this, just because as I’ve mentioned in the past, the NFJs I know are largely great people but absolutely terrible at understanding STJ motivations. Which is fine - I’m pretty bad at fully getting NFJ motivations, but also I know that I’m not great at reading people in general and a lot of NFJs don’t realize that they’re not great at reading people and that some people are genuinely happier when they have a complex real-world project that requires getting your hands dirty vs. when they’re doing some kind of abstract 10-year plan.

Basically I get annoyed when any type gets automatic credit for something they don’t actually excel at and INFJ descriptions are particularly guilty of this and it causes them to never try to grow or improve and it causes other people to mistype and in the grand scheme of things it’s not at important but it still pisses me off.
