was it casual when he gave her his soul for the rest of eternity?

Rumi: I heard the fans are shipping us

Jinu: to where?????

[quotidian-oblivion]

so, you're telling me that a huge studio made a new animated movie with an original idea, stylized animation, actually good songs, and likable characters with depth and it was a hit?

wow its almost like that's what people have been asking for since they were drowning in sequels and remakes!

Having now watched KPop Demon Hunters, aside from all the traditional praise it fully deserves (the VISUALS and the CHOREOGRAPHY and the WORLD-BUILDING), we gotta talk about this movie’s ability to make things charming in as short a time as possible. It’s like action economy but for writing.

Like The Tiger and the flower pot? We instantly love him and I would now like fifty plushies. I trust the tiger more than some of the main cast.

Jinu’s “…wow. I wasn’t expecting a hug, but-?” INSTANTLY CHARMING. “I made it for the tiger, but the bird keeps taking it.” IMMEDIATE TRUST.

This movie really said I can make you like characters I want you to like SO FAST. This movie said you WISH you could make characters likable as quick as me.

saw a take that makes me *gestures at above meme*

"Human, take it."

what jinu allegedly did in canon for saja boys to become successful:

recruit four demon members and somehow convince them to join his boyband BEFORE getting Gwi-Ma's approval

taught them how to do different, but synchronized poses on cue

watch over and learn the evolution of modern kpop music, culture, fashion, and fandom

song lyricist & choreographer where he wrote (atleast) two singles and planned every move and expression.

made sure some of the choreo was memorable and easy enough to replicate and go trending

design brand collaterals like the soda cans, billboards, train displays, posters, ad videos, light sticks, oh and the logo too

basically a social media manager to create, edit, and schedule their social media posts

plan a photo and video shoot with the saja boys

record a studio version of soda pop and release it on streaming platforms

publicist where he basically booked them to the variety show, created a PR campaign and all to create hype for their first debut show in public to have some audience (the huntrix girls noted that there were more people than usual in the area before the saja boys' first performance)

gave the boys PR training

booked an entire stadium for the midnight concert

did a kpop boyband bootcamp to wrangle four demons into becoming the perfect idol to act, sing and dance

probably did a 1on1 for each saja boy too to create and establish their character

—all so he can forget his shame and memories

You know those photos of little birds sleeping together on a branch, all cuddled up in a line? This, but its the Order of the Robins from Dark Knights of Steel, high up on some precarious ledge:

(The photos in question:)

sometimes I worry that my writing is OOC but then I remember that someone at DC decided that Bruce Wayne should hit his fucking kids, and then I feel slightly better

[quotidian-oblivion]

Just senseless rambling, ignore me. I just noticed this: Mai is like that dad who cares a lot but has a difficult time actually showing it. Then she'd do something and you'd realise "wow, she loves me a lot" while Zuko is the kind of mum that annoys you, you get into a fight with him and he comes bearing food as a peace offering and acts like nothing went wrong.

and then it all faded back into color

[quotidian-oblivion]

aint no way they’re the same person

never getting over how Kai still sees Nya as a baby oh my god
