It's about the intense allure of danger and the eroticism of threat when it's grounded in a reality where I'm safe because he's fictional and can't actually hurt me.

These new Pedro fans have forgotten their roots. Back in my day we had The Mandalorian, Narcos, a few episodes of Game of Thrones, and a bunch of weird little roles from shows and bad (or otherwise niche—Prospect is one of my favorite movies of all time, I will die before badmouthing it) movies we didn’t care about to write fanfic about. We wrote fanfic about an unnamed character in a wine commercial. A character from a made for TV movie that was a sort of spin off from Burn Notice. A single episode of a cop show where he was inexplicably goth. Another commercial, this time for a mobile puzzle game. Now it’s all Joel Miller all the time. Where is your whimsy? Where is your office vampire? Cowboy super spy? Dammit, more fics about the (cut, iirc) maître d’ from The Adjustment Bureau STAT

This day is coming. Tick, tock.

If you live somewhere where it gets darker now, here’s a few reminders:

- You can put up fairy lights at any time and leave them up for as long as you want

- Get out if you can, while there is still light outside

- Make it as cosy for yourself as you can. Dial up the comfort and the cosy, whatever that looks like to you

- Make plans to look forward to

- More people than we sometimes realize are affected, be cosy with your friends in person, call them or have a facetime hang out with tea or a movie. Maybe go for a short walk together or meet up for coffee, so you get out a bit too.

- You have made it through the darkness before, you can do it again. If you think back and remember something that helped you the last time, draw on that again
