I think some part of me will always be that kid walking out of a huge movie theater into a grey overcast afternoon not realizing her world was about to be permanently changed but feeling changed already herself by the animated Disney film she'd just seen that she would spend a year acting like she was too cool to be affected by, even though she'd never cried at a movie before that and and the cries from the speakers were still ringing in her ears on that cold, overcast afternoon, right before her world changed

#so I saw big hero 6 when it was first in theaters but not at my hometown theater bc we'd been visiting several hours away #and decided to see the showing at the movie theater in that bigger city while we were up there #it was the first movie I'd ever cried at and I pretended to be too cool for school even though I knew #even at 12 years old #that that movie had deeply affected me #i will not bring this anecdote back around to where you all probably assume it's going bc for once that isn't the point #the point is. it changed me and I think there's a part of me that is still in that wet chilly damp parking lot #walking out of the regal theater in fairbanks alaska #this is definitely inspired by Eden's batman 2020 post btw I just. some things stay with you or you leave a piece behind #and that can in many ways be good #Lu rambles
