Because Hypnos took one look at the soggy Endless Calliope brought home and decided right then and there he was 'adopting' him... And no one can convince me otherwise. 😅

#dream of the endless #hypnos hades #Hades game #the sandman #I pondered over adding some digital colour to this #But what the hell #Sometimes you have to let your traditional doddles have their time #Hypnos looks insanely like Daniel here #Coincidence?#I think not #My artwork #My pen and ink scribbles

Hey absolutebl, I am a TV writer with a very strong and personal interest in BL series. Living in Thailand for many years, I was asked by a friend Thai actor to give BL series a shot, to see the foreigner perspective on Thai tv dramas/BL stories... and here I am. I have developed 2 series so far, TRUTH & DARE and IMPERFECT MATCH, and written their respective pilot episodes.

I mentioned "personal interest" because, as a gay writer, I find it almost therapeutic to write these stories, although it would be cathartic to see them sold and produced haha!

I'd love to read your opinion on something...

I have read your discussions about language, which I find very interesting. Personally, having lived in Thailand for many years, I am more than used to the language, but not able to write it, so I write these stories in English. I know this will throw off more than one Thai producer, but I believe my stories are universal and should be easily adapted to many different languages without losing their uniqueness. Details of the story, settings, names... can always be changed to localize the series and make them culturally relevant. Do you think this is a valid argument when it comes to explaining to a producer why is the series not presented in Thai? Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Okay, you did come to this blog, so presumably you know what you're in for. But if you want the nice answer, you should stop reading right now.

Still here?

You're not gonna like this, but I think if you're pitching to Thai production the script should be written in Thai.

One of the things i keep running into learning Thai is that linguistically there is a cap on comprehension without the script, not just comprehension of the language but of the way it fits within culture. And you're pitching to a studio house that sits within THAT culture. On a very basic level the burden is on you to meet them in their world, not foist yours upon them. And their world is Thai. It smacks of both western entitlement and farang rudeness to do otherwise. Like not taking your shoes off in an Asian house. You're in their house, honor their culture, that includes the written one.

There's also an artistic component to this on a core linguistic level with regards to comprehension.

How do I put this?

It's like... you can't do an oil painting on watercolor paper, it has to be done on cavas. The art side of language impacts creativity at a root level, especially visually. And all languages are creative because they are living evolving artistic endeavors as well as tools for communication. The way something is written down, the words as pictures, is part of that endeavor. The true bones of your story can't be communicated properly to a team if they're obfuscated by a whole different suite of linguistics.

English, under this context, just feels... wrong. It's a brutal, cumbersome, lumbering beast of a language when compared to Thai. Full of excess words and redundancies, stunted and plain when forced into brevity.

And it will LOOK that way when slapped down on a desk in front of a Thai staffer. It will look ugly, and bloated, and shocking, and unpleasant to the subconscious of a non-English speaker, and when compared with all the Thai scripts they have read before or after it will be judged and found inferior.

Also, I suspect you're young (no offense) but no story is universal. No book appeals to everyone. I, for example, happen to have always (from the get go) been highly indifferent to Harry Potter.

Side tracked.

On a purely business front:

The point of a pitch is to get through barriers and into production.

By pitching in the wrong language, you give yourself an insurmountable barrier.

Remember what studios are looking for, first and foremost, is a reason to say NO. They are always looking for the flaws, always. Not being in Thai is not just a flaw it's a red flag against you personally as someone they want to work with.

You really want my feedback? Put your scripts down, sign up for a three month immersion class and learn the Thai script instead.

In the long run, the thing learning how to write in another language does most for you as a creative writer, is expand your artistic brain in new directions. So your stories will actually come out more inventive, more adaptable, and, yes, more universal as a result. I guarantee it.

See what happens? You come for feedback and I gave you stern words and a homework assignment.

On the other hand, you can wander in with you script in English and see what happens. The worst thing is you get rejected. Or laughed at. Or ignored.

I'm just some scmuck on tumblr. What tf do I know?

#asked and answered #this was a fun one #be nice in the comments you putz they are obviously a baby #i sat on it for a while because I wasn't sure I should answer it #but what the hell

A TIME FOR AWE

Picard smiled tenderly at Q, who hung his head in overwhelming gratitude at the chance to finally marry and bind himself to the one being he loved in all the Universe.

"Q, it's alright," Picard whispered.

With tears slowly dripping from his ancient eyes, Q gripped both of Picard's hands tighter.

"Jean-Luc, I...I can't" Q whispered, his shoulders slightly trembling.

Picard's eyes widened in shock.

"What do you mean? You don't want to--"

"No, Jean-Luc," Q looked up and leaned forward until he and Picard's face were inches apart.

"I can't believe...this is finally happening. We're about to be married."

"Yes, we are. It's been... a journey."

Q quickly wiped a tears from his eye and caressed his Favorite's face.

"Too long, mon capitaine. But worth every milisecond."

Finally, Admiral Ramirez approached them to begin the ceremony.

Q took a deep breath and smiled broadly.

Picard turned and smiled at his closest friends and colleagues. Riker, Geordi, Beverly, Worf,and many others were in attendance.

They had made a rather lukewarm peace with Q in their own ways. But, they were happy to be there in support of their captain and friend. Despite their misgivings about Q, they trusted Picard's judgement in the end.

Even Guinan had reached some semblance of acceptance. Just barely. Although, to a few people, her saying to Q something about "knowing where Q lived if anything were to happen to Picard" created a bit of confusion and concern.

Picard sighed as he scanned the other side of the massive and opulent wedding hall.

"I don't see any of your fellow Q. I'm sorry that you are alone during this very special moment," whispered Picard.

Q chuckled.

"What does a moment matter to eternal beings, Jean-Luc? We are living embodiments of Existence Itself."

"It matters to you. And it matters to me."

Q took a deep breath, as he felt a lump in his human throat.

"But he is not alone!," a powerful voice echoed throughout the wedding hall.

Everyone watched as a member if the Q Continuum, approached the Admiral, Q, and Picard.

"Q! I didn't think anyone from the Continuum would even want to come," Q said in disbelief.

"This is a new time for you, Brother. We wanted to be here for you."

And what Q and Picard saw next would be the most humbling and awe-inspiring sight they had both ever beheld.

The columned walls and towering arches of the hall disappeared into a neverending expanse of stars and delicate nebulae.

Q caught his breath and smiled, tears welling in his eyes.

"Q,--" Picard began, looking up at him.

"Jean-Luc, look!"

Q pulled Picard close against him, almost in a protective hold.

"Do you see?" Q asked, his voice slightly trembling. He pointed towards the vastness of space.

Picard squinted as he scanned the expanse.

"I'm sorry. I don't see any--No wait!!!"

Q looked down at Picard adoringly as his capitaine began to smile.

Picard trembled with awe as a multitude of very faint forms of bending light and space, and in different sizes, began to form in the distance.

"I think...I think...I see them, Q," Picard whispered.

It was almost frightening to see, as what appeared to be hundreds of these forms slowly approaching closer and closer.

Q looked over at the Q representative, who smiled slightly.

"Well, this is a first," Q said.

The Elder Q closed his eyes and nodded.

"So it is, Q."

Q opened his mouth to speak, but his shock was so much that he pressed his trembling lips together.

"Yes, Q," the Elder said with a smile.

"The entire Continuum came."
