it's so important to me by the way that daniel is a shitty teacher + mentor. i think the students who take his masterclass come away from it only slightly better journalists and mostly with the overarching opinion that this guy just kind of sucks. it's only incidental he was a good writer.

do you have any scenes that got changed/cut out that you wish made it into the final cut??

Okay this is not a full scene, and also not a scene that was storyboarded by me lol, but I have to talk about this because it's been haunting me: at the beginning of episode 5 when Kenji and Darius were driving to the Halfway House, after Darius's failed attempts at playing "looks alike", instead of interrupting Darius by saying "Yeah. Where do I turn?" Kenji says something along the lines of: "on MY family trips, we sip cranberry juice in silence on our private jets NOT making small talk". This became like one of the top 3 most quoted lines during production for some reason, and my heart sank when it was eventually deleted, because it means that even after the show comes out, I can never quote it in a way that makes sense to other people......🤣 But in seriousness, I think the change made sense -- Kenji wasn't in a joking or gloating mood at that point.

Personally, I don't think I have any scenes that were completely cut/drastically changed, and I think the revisions are all for the better!

I’ve been thinking about Armand/Daniel a lot lately (as one does) and yes the whole thing is incredible but for some reason I can’t get this line out of my head: “In the midst of life they plunged”, and how perfectly it encapsulates their entire relationship. Like the IMPLICATIONS of it. Armand hadn’t actually had a life, perhaps only a semblance of it, in over 300 years, and this mortal boy gave it to him and offered him a shot at an actual existence. Full of experiences, adventures, discoveries, opportunities, romance, fighting, crying, LIVING. The highest of highs and the lowest of lows. Daniel giving Armand the opportunity to have a life and to reclaim his youth will never not make me feral ❤️‍🩹

Anon! It's like you're inside my head, because I, too, think about them all the time. That line though is really awesome and it does encapsulate their relationship so well. You're so right about this and you should say it.

Like, if you think about it, it's exactly true that Armand hasn't had much of a life for a long time. He spent decades with Louis, living in a shared misery. And while I fully believe they had tender moments during that period, I think it was few and far between. Armand wanted Louis to be his guide to the modern era, but Louis was too lost in his grief and pain and numbness to be that for him. When that finally ends, he spends the next decades watching over a sleeping Lestat, keeping the city free of "vermin" to protect him like a guardian who wasn't asked for.

And basically seems to be his life when Daniel crashes into Lestat's house and starts playing those tapes. He's just chilling in New Orleans, watching over the dirt where Lestat is buried, as life moves around him.

The Chase gives Armand something else to do, to focus on. He follows this young reporter boy around tormenting him and teasing him and in the process, he starts to delve into the modern era, learning about things Daniel does and places he goes and even his means of travel - accosting him on a train, in a taxi. He bails him out of jail. He orders dinner for him at a restaurant in the most unhinged way possible, but it's also the sort of thing you might do if you just want to push some of the limits around you.

And then they come together as a couple, finally, and then into the very midst of life they plunge! Armand finally has someone who will do all the things with him: parties, shows, concerts, museums, travel. Daniel has been patiently (and not so patiently) teaching him about the modern world for years already, so now they really dive in. And as you point out, they also plunge head first into a relationship, living together, existing together as a couple and figuring out what that means, and everything that entails, good and bad.

It really is Armand getting a second chance at his youth and his first opportunity in centuries to just be a guy and experience the world on the arm of this beautiful, curious, sardonic boy who loves him for what he is and who he is and is passionate and gentle, even as he can be defiant and argumentative.

It makes me feral, too. Like it's just so good. Daniel gives him the world and the love he deserves, and in the end, Armand gives him forever. And I just... love them so, so much. 😭😭💖

Thank you so much for this ask!

kentrosaurus for the ask thing!!

Kentrosaurus- Favorite plot point and why?

Ooo okay this one was actually hard for me to decide, because there are many plot points in jwcc that I absolutely love, but I have to say one of my absolute favorite plot points was Kenji’s antagonist arc and just his overall relationship with his dad. I think the build up to him meeting his father again and ultimately betraying the camp fam in order to please him was done so well. We get little the hints throughout the series that Kenji and his father don’t have a great relationship and he feels like a disappointment to him, so much so that he’ll literally throw his friends under the bus just so that his dad could love him and it’s honestly heartbreaking. Not only that, but the way jwct continues this plot point is just amazing with Daniel ultimately dying to save Kenji and Kenji just having these incredibly conflicting emotions because on one hand he hates his dad for everything he put him through, but on the other he still feels like that kid that is begging for his father’s love which ultimately leads to him breaking down. They didn’t have a good relationship, but he can’t help, but love him.

First Responders Reunion (June 4, 2023)

[sinofwriting]

I love your writings and I was wondering if you can write a scenario how y/n and Daniel met for the first time. Perhaps as the tension between them is building up, the reader thinks that Daniel likes her older friend, she’s near his age, instead but Daniel proves her wrong. Perhaps they met at the paddock and she was an invited guest etc. I can see Daniel teasing and being shameless with her making her flustered.

These are such good ideas for how Daniel and Sweets met! Sadly though her being a guest at a race wouldn't work since the timeline has them meeting in January of 2022. And while I like the idea of her thinking that Daniel has a thing for an older friend, a big thing in their relationship is just how honest and upfront they are with what they want and when in their lives. (might steal that idea though for a completely separate fic)

Little blurb under the cut of how Sweets and Daniel met

“I liked your album.” She jumps a little at the sound of a voice so close to her and the chair opposite her is being pulled out. A somewhat familiar face sitting across from her. “Sorry.” He chuckles. “I just recognized you and wanted you to know.” She shakes her, giving him a smile and closing the notebook where she had been trying to write something. “Don’t apologize.” She looks around the exclusive club just for celebrities, that during the daytime like now was a place for them to come and chill. Coffee and pastries being served instead of liquor.

She looks back at him, face so familiar but she can’t place it. “I’m sorry. I know I’ve seen you before, but I can’t place it.” He laughs, waving off her apology. “Daniel Ricciardo, F1 driver.” “F1.” Her eyes are wide and now she can remember his face from random tweets about Taylor and athletes that liked her music. “Impressive.” “You don’t know anything about it, do you?” She smiles apologetically again. “No, I don’t.” She lets out a little laugh. “I do know that it's elite, mainly European, right?” “New to North America for sure. I could give you a crash course about it.” He offers. “In exchange for?” She asks, feeling a wide grin spread across her face. “Release date for new music?” She shakes her head. “Nothing planned yet.” He looks disappointed and she can’t help but want that look to disappear from his face.

“How about you give me a crash course on F1 and I’ll give you a sneak peek of the song I’m currently working on.” “Really?” He asks, perking up instantly. She nods, “yeah.” “Ya free now?” She glances down at her notebook, where she’d been struggling to write something for the near hour she’d been here. “Yeah. Tell me all about F1.”

I don't debate who would've won when Terry was about to throw hands with Robby at the S4 AVT, because the image of The Terry Silver consistently feeling threatened enough by this three apples tall ball of childhood neglect and anger issues, to treat him the same as his main adult enemies (squaring up, making a point of laughing him off like "look how not threatened I am by you") is too hilarious to be a practical question.

In the story of Terry Silver, his biggest adversaries are a middle-aged New Jersey-Italian twunk, a barely functioning alcoholic, his own repressed homosexuality, a man who would rather go on a revenge quest on another continent for his old twink fling than confess his feelings for a woman, and a Literal Teenage Boy
