“I know life and fate are scary, but I wanna be legendary!”
The way Telemachus dreams of fighting mythical beasts to cope with his inability to protect his mother… the way he dreams of being a legendary warrior because that is how he imagines the father he never had… the way, even within a fantastical world, that imagined fantastical enemies serve almost as an escape from the real dangers he faces…
Is it just me, or does he feel like… us? I listen to ‘Legendary’ and think of myself as a child, I think of the way fantasy and fiction can be an escape, a source of hope and wonder and beauty for people who have never felt strong before, I just…
(Deep breaths. Stares into space for a bit.)

I think my favorite thing about Epic’s creator and cast (and particularly about Jay) is that as the project grows, they’re embracing how fans of this media typically interact with that media. Choosing to do lyric videos, partnering with artists for official animatics (previously reserved for fandom spaces only), doing livestreams, embracing the parts that fans end up liking the most instead of rejecting them. It feels like Jay and all of the cast/creators truly understand their audience and how to promote this project in a way that speaks to that audience. Truly fantastic work.

Adam: You wanna know what I do? I get paid to take pictures of rich guys like you who go to seedy, out-of-the-way motels to fuck their secretaries!
Lawrence: ...why do you have a picture of me just drinking coffee?
Adam: uh...*stashes picture away* that one was for me.

Hot take probably but I personally love it when Doctor Who gives up all pretence of being a science fiction show and just goes ‘yep, there’s magic in this one! straight up magic! what are you gonna do about it?’ I think it’s hilarious
