Jane Austen - "Sense and Sensibility"

Girls will nicely ask their mom a simple question and their mom will respond like they just threatened to murder her with their bare hands

ROBERT SHEEHAN as Klaus Hargreeves | “The Umbrella Academy”

[cainsdiary]

Concept: Viktor and Klaus both coming out as Not Fuckin' Cis by Viktor saying that he doesn't use she/her pronouns anymore and Klaus responding by asking if he can have them and Viktor confusedly says "sure"

Same energy????

we need more realistic hitmen/fighter lifestyles in writing.

they'd need to get decent sleep to be up to completing missions, many of them would detest the idea of smoking/drinking bcos of their impact on your body, they'd need to spend serious time training and working out and eat very well.

i love hitmen that are edgy and smoke in back alleys and are very skinny yet have huge abs and can do super athletic stuff and don't eat much and stuff, but i feel like it just takes away some realisticness from the plot? idk

#not shitting on people who do write these kinds of hitmen n fighters tho #they're so hot and cool too i love it

And now I see it now I'm certain

I see you with my eyes opened

Trusting that our love

Our love is enough

Solid gold and perfect to the touch

The fact that Twitter allows porn but not public death threats and tumblr allows public death threats but not porn is objectively funny and the fact that a large portion of us chose the latter over the former is objectively funnier

What I should be doing: Finish drafting Chapter 26 of my WIP.

What I did instead: Rewrote the summary of my completed fic. Now I'm mad that I didn't have that awesome summary while actually posting the damn thing.

Your task from the client was simple; Kill the target and take care of the kid too. It’s been ten years since then, and you’ve just realized you may have misunderstood “take care of kid too.”

being an introvert is every instructor, teacher and authority figure in your life taking it upon themselves to force you out of your comfort zone to "help you grow"

#guess what #it doesnt work like that

I wonder if the gods keep cringe compilations of us

A Quick Tip: How to Introduce The Antagonist

While researching this topic, one piece of advice kept showing up:

Your antagonist needs to be affecting the story as soon as possible (even if they’re not physically shown yet). Introduce them as close to the start as possible, whether it’s physically, by name, rumors or an action they have done off-page.

• Consider introducing them passively before they physically enter the story.

If your antagonist doesn’t enter the story until later, introduce them in passive ways. This could be word of mouth, rumors, visions, dreams… something that builds up the idea of the villain before they walk into the plot. A little appetizer before the meal. Another way to do this is by having something the antagonist does off the page affect your protagonist directly. 

You could also give your antagonist henchmen who carry out their evil deeds for them until the antagonist steps in themselves. In Star Wars, the main antagonist is Darth Vader, who rules The Empire. The people who work for The Empire are always chasing Luke, giving him a constant struggle and conflict.

Examples:

Fire Lord Ozai in Avatar: The Last Air Bender doesn’t enter the story until the final season. However, his atrocities are made known throughout the show and directly affect Aang and his friends. Voldemort’s character from the Harry Potter series receives a similar treatment. He is shown in flashbacks, brief scenes and through rumors/word of mouth before he and Harry clash wands later on.

• Have your antagonist crush an influential authority figure.

Establish a character whom your protagonist idolizes, trusts or views as unbeatable. This could be a trusted mentor, a minor antagonist, an idolized father/mother figure, etc. Then, have your antagonist crush them.

When the antagonist easily defeats this powerful authority figure, it shows the protagonist (and readers) an unfathomable strength.
