A Very Holy Post π
Guys I'm not crazy. I just had an urge to draw this last night so I did.
This is Simary and Ralseph and the holy conch. (I really don't know how to draw clothes and a conch)
Anyway for the people that voted in my recent poll, a holy post you ask, a holy post you shall get π (lotf edition of course) also idk think of the conch as Jesus or something
WAIT WHAT THE HELL THESE DELETED SCENES WOULDA BEEN SO COOL LIKE DEADASS (poor simon tho :((( )
hey, i figured iβd make a post on this since a lot of people donβt know, but there is a biography on william golding that has a lot of information about lord of the flies in it, and there are snippets of it online! simongif and i did a lot of searching through it last night, so hereβs a list of some of the things we found.
> there was an entire sequence that was removed for being too heavily a reference to the garden of eden. during the scene, simon has an overwhelming realization that he should not be eating fruit from certain trees, then proceeds to dance with a spiritual apparition in the jungle.Β
> again, there was another deleted scene in which simon decided he would try to offer himself as a sacrifice to the beast so the other boys could have peace and happiness.
> the book was originally titled Strangers from Within. a name change was decided upon, and there was a large list of unused titles, including Nightmare Island, This Islandβs Mine, Beast in the Jungle, An Island of their Own, Fun and Games, The Isle Is Full of Noises, and To End an Island.
> while simonβs character was being redrafted, the editor described simon asΒ βa self-righteous infant who insists on saying his prayers in the dorm while the naughty boys throw pillows at him.β
> apparently, the actors really fit into the roles of their characters, because they brought hugh edwards, piggyβs actor, close to tears when they told him his death scene was going to be real and thatΒ βThey donβt need you anymore.β
> peter brook mentioned that while he believed the boys would have descended into savagery much quicker, the entire time the characters spent on the island was about three months.
so thereβs some stuff! only a small amount of the book is online, but it contains some cool information (and a lot about changing simonβs character tbh). iβd look through some stuff in there if youβre interested in how the book was made!
STOPPPP BRO I KNEW IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO FOUND THIS
psa to everyone who sees this: never search up "jack merridew" on youtube without typing "lotf" or smth along the lines of that ππ (nah cuz like if you look into this guys channel his videos are SUS π)
I'm not much of a shipper but for the love of God someone draw these
dude everything abt this is so messed up like bro why would you send smut to an ELEVEN. FUCKING. ELEVEN. YEAR OLD. They have no business reading that shxt like- it's practically common sense for people to not act like this to minors like them.
hi i know iβm usually silly and not serious on here but this is very alarming please read
so as some of you know a new lord of the flies server was created here on tumblr recently:
iβll be blunt: it was found out an 11 year old was in the server. an 11 year old having discord is, itself, majorly unsafe, but the way the mods handled it was concerning. this post is a little long so iβll put it under the cut β please read the rest
first: sending smut to the 11 year old
for background information: arashi, 18, is one of the head mods on the server. i will be censoring the 11 year oldβs profile because i donβt want to expose them to potential creeps.
arashi, the head mod, found a lotf omegaverse fic. he said he was going to read it βfor science,β then dmed it to the 11yo member. omegaverse is a fic genre entirely based on sexual dynamics; why would you not assume itβs smut? why would you send an omegaverse fic to someone without checking the tags, the fic, or their age? the 11yoβs age wasnβt known at the time, but from what iβve seen, the lotf fandom skews very young. why share a sexual fic with someone whose age you donβt know?
second: when we found out they were 11
here, the 11yo member admitted they were 11. at first, kitbee, the owner, wanted to keep them in the server. after being told it was against discordβs TOS they kicked them. a few minutes later, kitbee suggested letting the 11yo back in the server and having everyone else pretend they werenβt aware of their age.
this is seriously worrying. first, an 11 year old should not have discord because of the sheer amount of creeps on there. second, from what iβve seen a majority of the members are 16+. none of us felt comfortable having an 11 year old in the server. why have them back? and why suggest we just pretend we donβt know their age?? very weird, imo!
anyway yeah. this whole situation has been bothering me for the last couple days. since the lotf fandom has so many young members, behavior like this should be called out to keep everyone safe. thank you for reading
YAAAAAAAUURRRRRRRRRRRR THIS IS SO CUTE TYSMMMM ππππππππππππβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨πβ¨π
iβm sure you find it funny bcs ur an ass but the sole purpose of the fandom was that she trusted us. she literally trusted the fandom to keep her protected from the spoilers of the book
you not only KNEW that, but then went on to disregard her wishes. like bro does NOT understand consent in any capacity
atp i donβt want to interact with you any more than i have to, and just block me bcs i donβt need you anywhere near any of my blogs if youβre gonna be like that
