Other news from the BL world
❗️ The production company Studio WabiSabi announced that their actors Boun N., Prem W., Santa P., Sammy C., Yacht P. and Stamp P. have terminated their contracts and will no longer be artists under the company on April 15th. Shortly after, GMMTV announced the 6 of them as newly signed artists, along with the disclosure that BounPrem's upcoming BL Vampire Project is now being produced under GMMTV, who now also own all broadcasting rights; WabiSabi will function as a co-producer. New S. stated on Twitter that the decisions had been long in the making, as well as the fact that WabiSabi no longer functions as a management agency for actors and is now a mere production company. He also denied the rumors that the company is shutting down. Shortly after the transfer of the Wabi Sabi actors, actor Fluke Jeeratch (formerly Pongsakorn) joined GMMTV as well.

Marc must have gotten some sign of defrosting from Vale istg because in his documentary he was fully prepared to go I don't give a fuck anymore. And he had full vontrol over his doc
But now in the dazn interview he goes like... well its up to him because the door of reconciliation is open
lobs a nuance grenade SORRY... so this IS kind of aligned with how he's acted/talked about valentino since the divorce with the notable exception of that doc (and misano 2019 lol) which is a setting where he had complete authorial control. like it makes sense to me that he's making an effort to avoid any potential negative soundbites to get slapped on headlines (and. well. consistently saying vale is the angry one DOES make vale seem more unreasonable here. marc's like IM not mad UR the one being crazy...), but i ALSO think he keeps it positive because rehashing it HURTS. like i think he will only let out how painful the whole thing was for him in a situation where no one can possibly ask him any follow up because it would literally feel like open heart surgery.
it is also notable to me is how vale and marc's strategies in avoiding those kinds of soundbites are SUPER different... like when he's asked about marc in interviews now, usually valentino always gives a vague compliment about marc's riding style and then immediately changes the subject. MARC on the other hand, has an entirely different game plan that tbqh i think kind of runs away from him sometimes. like he always starts with. 1. he was my hero and my idol and is so charismatic and i wanted to fuck him so bad. 2. EYE dont have any issues with him that's all in his brain. and then 3. valentino PLEASEEE call me back. and in THIS video he is NOTABLY effusive oh my god. jesus christ. like yeah keep it positive do all that PR stuff but marc my man you dontttt need to monologue for two whole minutes on how obsessed with him you are while holding a photo of you looking at him contemplating dick in silence. like whats wrong with you lol.... never has anyone begged more publicly for old man dick

The Pros and Cons of Getting Invested in Real People Instead of Fictional Characters
Pros (the benefits)
still around when Plot isn’t happening. all the messy little mundanities of life are actually most of it, and getting glimpses of that makes everything feel very rich and textured
are often still very much alive and Up to Something. the epilogue updates regularly.
can interact with other media figures like some sort of bizarre crossover episode. wdym you know each other, you’re not even from the same show
can be interviewed and make other appearances, and if they refuse to, people who know them probably will
they may even have social media
you can’t get Doomed by The Narrative in real life so if they’re plagued by themes and motifs anyway that's pretty funny
Cons (the Horrors)
if something bad happens to them the consequences are real and irreversible.
the argument “morality doesn’t matter because it’s just a story” does not apply. ethics are now way more complicated.
the argument “all interpretations are valid” does not apply. you can speculate, but things actually happened a certain way and you can’t Death of the Author your way out of it
existential threat of them coming across fandom content
getting treated like a fictional character instead of a real human being is why famous people go crazy, so blorbofying them probably isn’t good, but at the same time the urge to actively participate in this is completely irresistible
they may even have social media
you can’t get Doomed by The Narrative in real life so if they’re plagued by themes and motifs anyway that's pretty fucked up
