SHAUNA SHIPMAN: AN ORESTEIA

#yes everything is about greek tragedies to me what about it #shauna is literally The Epitome of Tragedy i cannot stress this enough #her whole life is drenched in grief #and shame and loss and guilt #THE DESPAIR #what's that quote by khaled hosseini?? #about if you had just opened your mouth and said something at that one pivotal moment your whole life might have turned out different?? #but you didn't say something?? you stayed silent instead?? #also richard siken's someone has to leave first quote that everyone on this hellsite should know by heart <3 #That is the Epitome of Tragedy thank u mr hosseini #thank u mr siken #the inevitability of it all. the inescapability. what if you just - #but you didn't. you didn't and that is why you suffer #anyways i was too lazy to find more quotes so these excerpts are from both anne carson's translation of the oresteia #and robert icke's extraordinary modern-day production of the greek tragedy #shauna shipman #shauna x jackie #yellowjackets #parallels #web weaving

You know, it just dawned on me that these photos were taken at the exact same press conference where photographer Allan DeLay recalls being fascinated by Paul’s beauty, so much so that he couldn’t take his eyes off of him (photos he took below):

Something was in the air that day.

#Paul McCartney #Allan DeLay #John Lennon #1965 #The Beatles #(I personally would have been looking at John) #(But yes Paul does look quite extraordinary that day)

extraordinary attorney woo rules because sometimes it'll be like "hey this episode we're defending a client who kidnapped 12 children" and the guy is like "in my defense....i saved those kids from going to school" and you're sitting there watching like "you know maybe he has a point"

#extraordinary attorney woo #no but for real when he was explaining his motive #and how much pressure the school system puts on kids #and then you find out the kids literally just spent a day playing in the woods before going home #you're just kind of like #'go off king! you're mentally unwell!' #bang gu ppong

one thing i love so so much about wyll is that he's an atheist, not in the sense that he doesn't believe in them, they are materially real in the DnD setting, but that he doesn't think they're worthy of worship "the only thing the gods have ever given me is a cold shoulder" it's so evocative, so poignant, it says so much about him as a character. and really, to me, encapsulates the essence of his character: there is no divine intervention, there are no miracles, there are only people, and for them he's willing to sacrifice more than any god ever would

#wyll #wyll ravengard #this is also why he's so attached to heroes like balduran and ansur regular people who achieved extraordinary things #and this is why i think his quest misses the mark of making him see the flaws in his heroes but not letting him come #to the obvious realization: no one can do it alone #there's no single hero who saves the day #you need a crowd you need the masses #the game itself reinforces this by having groups of allies to support the last stand #so to me wyll's character journey should be all about him realizing that real change can only be enacted by the people #but now we're probably getting too marxist for larian #but anyway to me that's the logical conclusion of wyll's character arc #and also why i don't particularly like the 'send him to avernus with karlach' ending #it robs him of agency and relegates him to a vigilante role that i'm a little uncomfortable with #i much prefer the duke and ranger endings

I started watching Kdramas this year and I do a lot of literature analysis in my normal life, so I found it really fun to find the tropes that were unique to this genre/culture that were different than what I find in Hollywood TV/movies and novels. I started with Alchemy of Souls and I was kind of amused looking back, because I never thought the SML had a chance with the FL but if I had known how strong the "they met as children and therefore DESTINY" trope is, I probably would have thought they would get together for sure!

Here are some of the unique tropes I've noticed:

-Leads meet as children and therefore DESTINY (What's Wrong with Secretary Kim, 100 Days My Prince, It's Okay to Not be Okay, Castaway Diva, The King's Affection, Sh**ting Stars, Destined with You, subverted in Alchemy of Souls)

-Reincarnation, which happens a ton but of course for the same reason Western media is littered with Chosen One/Saviour plots (played with in Alchemy of Souls and Extraordinary You, straight in Destined with You, Tale of the Nine Tailed, Moon in the Day, My Demon, The Story of Park's Marriage Contract... so many)

-Guy (usually) buys the girl shoes and then puts them on her. They also usually make a joke about her running away. (Tale of the Nine Tailed, 100 Days My Prince, Extraordinary You, Castaway Diva, King the Land, subverted in The King's Affection and The Forbidden Marriage)

-Guy (usually) gives/brings the girl an umbrella to protect her from the rain. I LOVE THIS TROPE, symbolism for protection and shelter gets me (straight in My Lovely Liar, King the Land, Tale of the Nine Tailed, Extraordinary Attorney Woo, subverted/played with in Alchemy of Souls, Business Proposal, Doom at Your Service, Castaway Diva)

-Not sure if this would count as a trope, but unique to the genre because we don't have formal speech in English and especially not in Canada where I live (we've basically started just going first name with everyone) I love it so much when the main characters use informal terms with each other for the first time. The subtitles don't always translate this well, but I know what the honorifics sound like and I'm all, "She didn't use "Mr." that time it's serious now!!!"

Anyway, are there more? I'm probably not catching them all!

Edit: Definitely some sort of trope around characters finding wild ginseng to solve a problem.

(I've only been watching Korean dramas by the way, I'm sure some of these tropes are shared by other dramas from China and Thailand. I just found the comparison with English language TV interesting.)

Most people do not really want freedom, because freedom involves responsibility, and most people are frightened of responsibility.

Karkat Vantas is the most interesting straightman character I can think of because. He's really, really not. Not when you take him out of his original context. But Homestuck has so much fucked up shit going on at all times that he does kind of become the de facto straightman for the trolls. Hes the only one that's "just a normal guy". And like thats still true after including most of the humans, too. Somehow, Karkat, canonical second coming of troll Jesus, is the most normal guy of the group. The only one more normal than him is Jegbert and thats because Jegbert is the humans' straightman character and because troll society is inherently more what the fuck to us as an unknown, Jegbert was always going to be more "normal" than Karkat. But like. Karkat is still the responsible one most of the time. Karkat. I think about that sometimes.

#me vibing #homestuck #karkat vantas #look. hes #hes all bark no bite and also the troll most likely to actually be able to handle most normal day to day issues #he keeps them from getting themselves killed in mundane ways #his friends keep him from getting killed in extraordinary ways #theyre good for each other

remember when everyone was clowning themselves into thinking junho somehow didn’t like youngwoo and was gonna r*ject her after he looked conflicted when she confessed the first time but the reason he looked that way was because he WAS LITERALLY AGONIZING OVER HOW THEY WERE GONNA BE TOGETHER IN THE LONG-TERM BECAUSE HE CARES SO MUCH ABOUT HER AND HER HAPPINESS AND MAKING SURE BOTH OF THEM ARE GOING TO BE HAPPY WITH EACH OTHER LONG-TERM like not us thinking he was conflicted when he was actually thinking about his 50 year plan with this woman my god.

#thank you choi suyeon for your service #girlie really said you gotta commit to my bestie or you will never see the light of day again #and he took that SERIOUSLY #extraordinary attorney woo #and it wasn't until his roommate pointed out the obvious #which is that junho already wasn't going to break up with her #that he just BOLTED #i cannot
