doomed by the narrative? no, no, tortured by the narrative. the narrative hates Sam Winchester, the narrative wants Sam Winchester dead but Dean Winchester, the audience and the antithesis to the narrative, does not want him to be anything but alive. in fact, the story is only a story if Sam is in it.

I found the quote I was trying to remember earlier:
Terry looked at me. He said: “Do not underestimate this anger. This anger was the engine that powered Good Omens.” I thought of the driven way that Terry wrote, and of the way that he drove the rest of us with him, and I knew that he was right. [...] And that anger, it seems to me, is about Terry’s underlying sense of what is fair and what is not. It is that sense of fairness that underlies Terry’s work and his writing, and it’s what drove him from school to journalism to the press office of the SouthWestern Electricity Board to the position of being one of the best-loved and bestselling writers in the world. [...] Terry’s authorial voice is always Terry’s: genial, informed, sensible, drily amused. I suppose that, if you look quickly and are not paying attention, you might, perhaps, mistake it for jolly. But beneath any jollity there is a foundation of fury. Terry Pratchett is not one to go gentle into any night, good or otherwise. He will rage, as he leaves, against so many things: stupidity, injustice, human foolishness and shortsightedness, not just the dying of the light. And, hand in hand with the anger, like an angel and a demon walking into the sunset, there is love: for human beings, in all our fallibility; for treasured objects; for stories; and ultimately and in all things, love for human dignity. --Neil Gaiman, Sep. 24, 2014. theguardian.com.
These paragraphs have stuck with me for almost a decade. I read this article the day it came out, and it struck a chord that's still ringing, to be honest. Back then, I'd only read maybe 5 books of Discworld; this article was the first I'd heard of Good Omens.
I think of this --'do not underestimate this anger'-- literally every time I think of Terry Pratchett. I certainly thought of it when I finally did get around to Good Omens a few years later --as an audiobook, borrowed from my library. I listened for the sound of the engine.
Posting this here to remind myself to keep listening.

Mihawk needs to do something really hot and sexy like get trapped with Shanks in a situation where they are surrounded by hostiles who pose a semi-significant threat while he does not have his sword (Shanks' fault) but Shanks' has his, for the sole purpose of scoffing when Shanks says he'll fight them off, telling Shanks that he is in no fit condition to fight even rabble like this, before reaching over, pulling Gryphon off Shanks' hip like he owns it, and completely obliterating every single person surrounding them with it.

i know that Jonny’s vague & poetic™️ description of Ulysses was just for the Drama of it all but the idea of Ashes meeting Ulysses, as Hades, and then just refusing to tell him what they looked like is so funny to me.
Jonnys like Ashes.. Ashes don’t be a dick about this just TELL ME WHAT THEY LOOKED LIKE its for the album jfc come on!! And Ashes just like …… nah :^)

Whether it’s love in a platonic friendship or in a romantic one, between two selfless givers, there’s no such thing as “effort.” It flows naturally like rivers to the sea. If effort is need by one side or the other, or both, it’s because love doesn’t flow naturally, it must be forced. Is forced love true love?
But we have that flowing current between us, you and I.
