Day 10: he’s a phantom

hear me out. i know sam isn't written to be bad for the alt feminist team, it's just that the ppl writing her didn't know what that team actually looks like. but it's important to me that she at least starts out that way if you wanna retool her character arc

i'm sure there are 14-year-olds out there that are embracing alt subculture and feminism for the right reasons, but i've worked with kids in that age group before. it's so so so often a thing, especially for white kids from financially stable homes with increasingly unsupervised internet access, where they've got so much passion and exactly zero experience. they can't go to protests or be in nonprofits unless their parents already are (they're usually not), they have rose-colored ideas of what direct action looks like, they're identity-driven. they don't know who marsha p. johnson or ibram x. kendi or sacheen littlefeather or gilbert baker are. they believe conspiracy theories. they're all getting their information solely from whatever crosses their instagram feeds, so some things they unify on but most things they're painfully chronically online about (i had to break up a fight between two kids about pan discourse once). they look and act very much like how sam does: loud, pushy, single-minded and obnoxious.

so it feels realistic to me if sam's whole deal comes across as immature, as long as she's understood by whoever's writing her. her frame of reference for the world is so small at this point in her life. none of us popped out the womb informed & eloquent – it would be nice to see that reflected in good faith.

#any good sam should at least start off annoying as hell!! its just the original show did it to make fun of outspoken progressives. and girls

paulina's keys which have about 300 thousand million clackety keychains that comprise their own microbiome of color & texture vs sam's lanyard which she made and has various passive aggressive hot topicky phrases flaking off vs. tucker's keys which are on a key ring strong enough to support the sins of man + a paracord thing from five below vs. valerie's keys to which a multitool from walmart is attached vs. danny's single solitary key which he keeps in his pocket

tell you what though it’s really really enjoyable when you feel your brain slipping towards increasingly detached fanonbrain interpretations of a character (because as much as i bitch about it i think we’re all susceptible to forgetting from time to time that the version of our blorbo who lives in our heads is filtered through layers of personal analysis and projection and sanding over certain fragments of personality for the sake of a gag or a good old fashioned whump rp) and you go back to the source material and you’re like ah!! THAT’S what my precious little guy is actually like!! it’s such a ludicrously satisfying and reinvigorating feeling. it’s like getting new glasses. replacing the broken screen protector on your phone. waking up after a cold and your nose is unblocked for the first time in a week. when you’ve done laundry and you put on your a list outfit for the first time in a hot minute. refamiliarising yourself with source material is a PLEASURE it’s like doing a factory reset on your blorbo thoughts and if you commit yourself to permanent and remorseless fanon brain you are missing out on a supreme brain-itching joy

Dannymay Day 14: Seance

i love the idea of ghosts forming as a result of the person having a deeply held wish or goal when they died, which matters at the moment solely because i'm imagining a danny phantom episode where the running gag is vlad getting his ass beat by a bunch of communist ghosts

[boneheat]

real shit!! there's so much fascinating ghostlore throughout history and across cultures, it feels so much more interesting to pull from that and let all these understandings exist in contradiction than try to give every ghost the same language and traditions and rules. the ghost zone is supposed to be harder to navigate and more chaotic than the real world not easier!!

in general i think the thing that bugs me about most danny phantom aus is that they feel more like danny made slight changes to his new dnd character as opposed to like. actually changing anything meaningful about the story being told

#part of this is preference ofc. the cultural meanings of ghosts over time and how that impacts how ghosts present and understand themselves #is just way more interesting to me than their extant biology. the how matters only as much as it gets an audience to suspend disbelief! #but also like. why would a 1900s CE Russian ghost or a 3000 BCE Chinese ghost give a fuck abt a clearly Western European styled Ghost King.
