the thing about the hypothetical richard-as-arem or richason-present-during-novacom fic is that. unfortunately. the novacom saga is just not as interesting as i remember it being. except for monica stone, who is a darling and an angel and i think she should hit as many people's cars as she wants to <3 just as like stress relief <3

#myth liveblogs aio #i mean i ALWAYS preferred dbd as an Event it just hit me as better somehow. more cohesive.#which yeah it's a single album whereas novacom got spread out over multiple albums #but like. idk man. it's a glorified 'violent tv shows will rot your kids' brains!!!!!' story #it's not even trying to NOT be an outright parable about that with all the groundwork they lay #about how violent and Objectionable the tv shows and other content are #it takes sooooo long for any of the actually intense stuff to kick in!!! and there's so much Narc Energy #the robyn story with erica......... wah wah our daughter is wearing skull earrings and getting into spiders :(((((#me listening to this story while making eye contact with the skull plushie i had attached to my backpack for years:#also the connie/mitch romance is.......... not what it felt like back then #also what's up with jason being an absolute weirdo about his INTERN !!!!!!!!!! that's his INTERN !!!!!!!#jason you can't be weird about your INTERN !!!!!!!!!!#fuck i hated that so much. love the snippets about jason eventually wanting to settle down. hating EVERYTHING ELSE #sigh...................... i wonder if dbd would have failed to hold up if i hadn't been listening to it off and on for so long #like i only listened to novacom a couple times where dbd is etched in my brain from all the re-listens #but for all its hand-wringy flaws i really do think dbd is a good story #whereas. like. i'm not sure if novacom......... is #but seriously monica stone though <3
