Marjorie Sparks Was Right

And also the indestructibility of that woman's ankles

an “original character” is like a kind of brain parasite

getting older and looking at ur own ocs like okay i know i said you were like 16-19 when i made you at 13 but no fucking way. youre 25 now

Liking a character who sucks is silly because yeah I hate him and yeah I want people to bully him and say mean things but if you say the Wrong mean thing I'm going to get defensive

everything he does is his own fault but also some of that shit wasn't entirely his fault do you understand

i love you mirror versions i love you possession i love you cloning i love you simulacrums i love you shadow selves i love you digital copies of a mind i love you alternate timeline versions i love you tropes that play with identity and what it means to be a certain person

unfortunately i do love pompous and pretentious characters. ☝️ WHO get their asses handed to them this is pivotal to my enjoyment of them

if theres a pompous/pretentious character who never gets thrown around like a gross rag, or they never have some ego breaking event happen to them then whats the fucking point

never recovered from this

im just thinkingg

characters who are undead. characters who die in the end and so they've been dead from the start. characters who are chased by death. characters that chase death. characters who died and came back to life. characters that die again and again and again. characters who consider their past self dead. characters who were born in someone else's corpse. characters that claw their way out of the grave. characters whose deaths leave such a gaping wound that even their absence is still a presence. characters who are emissaries of death. characters who are alive but consider themselves dead. characters whose deaths are ambiguous. characters whose existences are defined by death.
