Give me bullet power. Give me power over angels.

If you love me, Henry, you don’t love me in a way I understand. Do you know how it ends? Do you feel lucky? Do you want to go home now?

I really hoped I wouldn't have to make one, but here is my introductory post after all.

Greetings. That, up there, is my hoodie and my biggest porte-parole. My name is Víctor, I'm 18. DMs hate me, my askbox is my desk. Thank you for your understanding.

My pronouns are he/him. I'm mexican.

I do wizardblr roleplays sometimes as a bard who is pretending to be a wizard.

I like writing and I am trying to do so more often. I also like teeth, in the general sense. My general posts tag has a typo and I am too lazy to fix it.

My media interests, in order of current priority are: The Magnus Archives, Ace Attorney, Richard Siken, Will Wood, Wolf359, Hadestown, Hollow Knight, Arcane, Disco Elysium, Red Valley, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Good Omens, Zelda, Stardew Valley, A:TLA, TOH, PJO, Narnia, His Dark Materials, Eragon, Be More Chill (I'm, wholeheartedly, so very sorry), + many others I can't quite remember at the moment.

Dni; you know the drill, I'll write the list down later. All I believe needs to be repeated right now is the freedom of Palestine.

Writing advice from my uni teachers:

  • If your dialog feels flat, rewrite the scene pretending the characters cannot at any cost say exactly what they mean. No one says “I’m mad” but they can say it in 100 other ways.
  • Wrote a chapter but you dislike it? Rewrite it again from memory. That way you’re only remembering the main parts and can fill in extra details. My teacher who was a playwright literally writes every single script twice because of this.
  • Don’t overuse metaphors, or they lose their potency. Limit yourself.
  • Before you write your novel, write a page of anything from your characters POV so you can get their voice right. Do this for every main character introduced.

Where is all of this advice in my English literature courses?!? (Probably in the second semester or second/third year, but still!!! I'm too impatient for that)

the saying about rose tinted glasses has a real truth to it. have you ever worn actual rose tinted glasses in real life. like those candy heart shapes ones. it fucking rules. you look cool AND everything looks a little bit like it has an instragram filter on it. cannot reccomend my rose tinted glasses enough #myrosetintedglasses

it's usually morally correct to make fun of the usa but whenever i hear british people do it it feels kinda tone deaf. idk if we have the high ground here guys. its like your mom making fun of your mental illness like ma'am where do you think i got it from.

I’m sorry, women, your existence has been deemed too pure to be included in our horror zine. Your pain makes everyone uncomfortable, which is not what horror is supposed to do. Why don’t you write about something happy happening to you instead while we give all the starring roles of suffering to men instead?

posts really do just break out of your mutual circle and immediately land in the lap of the most insufferable people ever huh

Every reblog away from your mutuals is a reblog towards someone who will tag your post #tonystark

I had a serious post get tagged destiel once and when I tell you that was the closest I ever came to becoming the joker

one time someone tagged an informative post I made about psychosis "horror inspo"

This is the exact time of woman to think the white blond woman who sided with the oppressor out of convenience (just like them fr) is the innocent victim 🥺 and the oppressed black woman is the bad guy for causing the white woman to not get what she wants 🤬

And also called Elphaba a pick me while blaming a female character for something a man did

”Glinda should’ve never forgiven Elphaba”

More like Elphaba shouldn’t have forgiven Glinda. Glinda is basically the walking embodiment of performative activism. Which from a narrative standpoint is not a bad thing, it’s a deliberate writing choice, and a pretty blatant one at that, so IDK how people are out here trying justify Glinda’s actions.

The exact women Glinda is supposed to represent watched the film and didn't wanna accept the message about how they're the problem, so they did what the villains of the movie did and paint Elphaba as the Wicked one and Glinda as the Good one

So they missed the whole point of the film because their bad actions weren't being rewarded

Wicked unfortunately got the Stranger Things effect where it's a story about outcasts that became too popular so now the mainstream audience are watching it and are offended that the story is about outcasts
