What I especially enjoy in these two fandoms is how there's a bit of a lull...

Then literally anything they do for some reason hits us in a gut "He wore clothes! / They made food! / They tried to swim! / They were sitting on a couch!"

And then there's a bit of a pause because everyone here got tired at the same time..

...And the circle repeats 😂

There's no in between: only "everyone scream and climb walls" or "I'm dead let me rest"

I just need this anime injected into my veins.

The Master has taken over my brain (not surprising, honestly, not surprising at all, since he's my favorite disaster child, has been since I watched my first episode with him, which was the two parter ending of newschool S3, or maybe since I watched my first episode with Delgado!Master, the King... anyway...), so I decided it’s time I actually give writing my Sheen incarnation of him a try, so

like this post if you're interested in interacting with my Sheen!Master

(meaning you give me permission to send you things / plot / scream about him and your muse at 3 am in DMs etc.)

PRESENT DAY VERSE : johanna’s parents had never been well off. it wasn’t to say that her family was struggling, but with her number of siblings, they had plenty of mouths to feed. they all pitched into the work that needed to be done around the house and did their best to pull their weight. it was at age seventeen that johanna was approached and recruited into an underground street fighting club. someone seemed to have kept an eye on the teen long enough to notice her knack for winning a schoolyard fight and the fire that burned behind her eyes. with the promise of money waved in her face, and enough to help them significantly if she won, johanna reluctantly agreed. she spent two weeks after class training with her mentor for these fights. they consisted of 24 contestants and lasted just over a month. all seemed to be going well for some time, johanna coming out champion in all her fights, bringing home wads of cash she made her siblings promise not to tell their parents about. until the final round. a misplaced jab and the rush of adrenaline had become a recipe for disaster. johanna mason had killed her competitor.

there was no hiding the death from the authorities and in light of the fighters passing, the club fell under scrutiny. a handful of illegal rings ranging from drugs, trafficking and gambling were uncovered during the investigation. although each crime was worse than the last, their horrific discovery helped johanna’s case greatly. her older sister was able to find her a lawyer who convinced the court that she had been unlawfully coerced into the fights and it landed her in juvie for just under a year instead of being tried as an adult for murder. after her time in juvie, johanna had all intentions to start afresh despite the trauma of the club until she was hit with earth shattering news.

her family had been killed in what police deemed an accident. foul play was ruled out from the crash but the whispers on the streets said otherwise. in actuality, the girl in johanna’s last fight came from an affluent family. a family of politicians who had little control on their delinquent daughter but were enraged when they received the news. they blamed johanna and wanted her to pay.

johanna becomes a recluse for years following the news. her plans for new beginnings fall away and she hides out in her family’s cabin for the next year. she’d made enough in her fight club to keep her going for the year and it’s only when the money starts dwindling that she slowly returns to the city. she doesn’t pursue further education like she had planned, knowing what stain marked her criminal record and the pressures it would put on her already weakened stability. instead, she takes up a job bartending and finds herself falling into a comfortable groove.

merry christmas, world <3

I was watching clips from Little Women 2019 on YouTube (im so normal about that movie) and on the one with Jo Friedrich getting together at the end, people were commenting “oh I’m so glad Jo found the capacity to love another person romantically because she would be a static character if not. They were so sweet together 🥰” and I had to close the tab because HNG,,,,,,

Firstly, it was heavily heavily implied that the ending where Jo gets together with him was simply made up for the sake of the publisher due to prejudices and constraints of that time period (which was reflected in Alcott’s own experiences of trying to get little women published). This was supported by the colour grading of the scene and it’s place in the story: it’s warm-toned and Jo hadn’t been characterised in any way that would suggest she wanted to be in a romantic relationship for the whole story. Her loneliness is not a byproduct of wanting romantic love, but of living as a struggling artist in the oppressive patriarchal standards of her time; there’s also the fact that her family is moving on and growing up all around her as she’s the only one left behind in her family home, which is further emphasised by the fact that she’s the one constantly clinging to the simplicities of the past. She considers accepting Laurie’s proposal not because she loves him in a romantic way or wants romance, but because life is a fucking struggle. And that’s why Friedrich showing up at her doorstep, from the perspective of a viewer, especially because he hadn’t shown up at all since the film’s opening, is jarring as hell. But it’s deliberately paced to be and ignoring this in order to make such a statement as “oh finally the perfect man for Jo” INFURIATES me. Especially when the scene under the rain? The confession scene? Was the cheesiest culmination of every romantic trope ever. This - accentuated by the jarring shift in themes and character - was a brilliant meta-commentary on actual criticism of the book where it felt like Jo married Friedrich out of nowhere.

Which brings me to the next thing - romantic love being seen as the be-all, end all for… everything. (coldest take of all time but unfortunately, not cold enough apparently) It’s not!!!!!!! Absolutely nothing against it (I love my ships as much as the next person) but when a filmmaker pays such attention in her commentary to love and societal perceptions around it, when she explores sisterly love and motherly love and platonic love etc. all so thoroughly. And you still leave thinking Jo was happiest and fulfilled when she gets together with Friedrich. I… I don’t know what to say. I’ve seen people say that the ending is ambiguous (and it is rather) but I’ve only ever seen it this way and I just don’t agree with the interpretation that Jo just gets married happily in the film because if so, holy crap was it paced/set up badly. All evidence just points to the contrary in terms of character, and themes, and just how the film is structured. And it’s genius! It’s one of the reasons why the film is one of my all time favourites. It’s such effective satire on how society (back then and evidently now) views romantic relationships. So it just makes me so annoyed when people ignore the nuance

Ok *breathes* I’ll stop

He’s fine ok he’s alive and well, see!!!!!
