A LITTLE LATE FOR THAT, WOULDN'T YOU THINK.

The fic is... I have made 1 1/2 pairs of pants, read 200 pages of my textbook, and cleaned my room three times, so the fics are going better than my nanowrimo, in any case!

In all seriousness, yeah, I feel the same about it. I used the term back when it still seemed to have a meaning, but nowadays, it's really just a cheap way of saying "I don't like this character and everyone else should feel the same about it." It's a shame, because the term was actually an interesting aspect of fandom culture in the beginning, but now, it no longer says anything or gives any meaning. But I am sounding like a broken record here, right? Let's just leave it at: I don't like the term Mary Sue, (but even then, if people are gonna complain about it, I still want them to complain about it in a way that makes sense in context.) 

I'm okay with what I ended up doin' with them though. I don't really have anywhere in my room to hang up a peg board since the walls are covered in posters that I won't take down so my options are limited.

had to translate the second one from korean and the last one from japanese but this is surprisingly beautiful (also the third and fourth one go sooooo well together!) ;; thank you! :)))))

Gupta is fished out of the arena, patched up, given a bath, and put on TV where the first thing they ask him is How Does It Feel To Be A Victor?And the newest victor from District 8 doesn’t say a word. He stares at the interviewer, and then down back at his hands. His fingers are still arched, the same way they were when he strangled his final opponent. He brings his hands to his own neck—his arched hands grazing over where his own trachea is—and opens his mouth to release a big load of nothing.The interviewer realizes the gestures meaning a moment after Sadiq does, and he moves just a moment sooner. He hops up on stage and wraps an arm around Gupta and starts chattering about how, ah, yeah, the kid’s really honored and he’ll have a great time at the party, but we gotta get there first, you see? Nah, we don’t drink, but have you had those little orange drinks there? Great stuff. Especially after all that excitement, you know?In the night, Sadiq still has his arm around Gupta’s shoulder, shielding him from anyone who may come too close. Gupta never spoke much in the first place, so until the the footage is reviewed, no one will even have a rough guess at what point during the games he ceased speaking entirely. As far as responses to trauma go, Sadiq can understand.Sadiq hasn’t removed his mask around others since his own game, after all.
