this fanfic shit is easy
#never let it be said i'm not predictable
The Mysterious Benedict Society is great because it said what if the world was formed by the eyes of children, and what if the only ones who could save it were children. What if the world was collapsing because adults refuse to listen to children. What if you were told that what made you an outcast was the exact thing that would allow you to save the world.
And what if, when all is said and done, your reward was not the knowledge that you saved the world, but the knowledge that you were no longer alone. That you had friends who understood you, and that despite your gifts, you could go back to being a child.
been thinking about all these characters again because my brain has been desperate for a bit of whimsy lately

Some Advice For People Leaving Comments on Fanfics:
“I liked your fic”
Nice, but basic and easy to overlook
Doesn’t compel the author to do anything other than take the compliment
Sounds like you might be a bot (ew)
“I am going to eat your floorboards!”
Unique and attention grabbing
Makes me second guess whether I should have bought that insurance
Sounds like you might be a termite (how did a termite learn to type????)
I always get something new each time I read the mysterious benedict society especially as I grow up and find myself in different season learning new lessons. I recently reread it and this is what I took away from it this time. There is a difference between the illusion of control and actual control. There is a difference between the illusion of community and actual community. There is a difference between the illusion of happiness and actual happiness. Just like the hidden messages, social media is attempting to create a feeling of control, community, and happiness, but it is all FAKE. it is a complete illusion and one that will eventually just make us feel more out of control, alone, and depressed than we first were. Just like Mr. Curtain creating the very problem he offers a solution to, social media and society/culture in general hooks us into a vicious cycle of fear and insecurity and uses that to keep us coming back for more and more. Because, just like the Whisperer, we might feel good and feel like our fears and insecurities are solved in the moment, but they ALWAYS come back. Because like Mr. Curtain says and Reynie later learns: the only way to truly overcome them is to FACE them with total and complete honesty. It is realizing the real community you have fighting alongside you and choosing to pursue genuine connection with them despite the fear of being lonely. It is realizing that there is no such thing as complete control and embracing the small things you can control. It is recognizing that true happiness can never come from something that only intends to deceive you out of your sadness. How does Reynie and the gang defeat the Whisperer and its irresistible pull? By recognizing the REAL thing that they have: each other. Human connection is what it is all about. It's hard, it's messy, it's scary, but wouldn't you rather live a life that is true and not built on a lie? Choose truth. Choose community. I am always astoundished (ifykyk) by how ahead of its time this book is. So much relevance as we continue to be an increasingly digital age. May we always hold onto our unusually powerful love of truth :)
