don’t know if this makes any sense but. i associate each of the s1 dad’s stories with different storytelling mediums.

like, glenn’s story is very visual, a lot of visual subtleties and visual imagery/symbolism. (book of Xs) Meanwhile ron’s story is a lot more word-based, there are visual symbols, but i see them as a lot more abstract. (you are enough just as you are). Darryl’s would work best as a movie. it just has those vibes. and i think Henry’s story is good as a podcast? (the structure feels less conventional, and he has some great monologues)

#dndads #this is why its a lot easier for me to draw glenn stuff #an animatic for him is a lot more straightforward than it would be for any other dad #also ron's whole thing could be EASILY translated into a poem #its just smth about all the abstract symbols #and a level of subtlety too #double meanings #darryl has too much visual comedy to not be a dark comedy movie #and uh #i dont really understand henry's arc #but i think its incredibly good the way it is #as a podcast #shrugs
