a family is like a fire exit

nothing hits quite like tragic doomed estranged sibling characters

ugh we need more manipulative characters that aren’t evil. lie and cheat and steal for a good cause. control every narrative. use narcissism for justice. ruin all of your personal relationships for the good of the mission.

I have incurable Woman In The Margins Of The Story disorder.

She’s dead she’s immortal she’s haunting you she doesn’t care about you she’s muzzled she’s screaming at the top of her lungs she’s unnoticed she’s unforgettable she doesn’t have control over the story she doesn’t have control over her body she doesn’t even have control over her voice.

You want to create a series primed for optimal transformative work? Leave the most burning questions unanswered but drop just one or two really disconcerting stray bits of dialogue. Make the setting campy with just a few Troubling Coincidences no one fully addresses. Let the audience catch a few worms but keep a forest of barren hooks looming ominously in the distance. Give the fans a sandbox and fill it with landmines.

fandom so small we fit in a rickety trolley
