Obedience

The first chance she had to escape, Dani took it. Vlad had become sloppy since imposing the obedience curse onto her. According to him, he had to test the cursed leather cuff bracelet before using it on Danny.

He'd run tests to see how long the curse was in place after taking the bracelet off. Made sure that his plan would work. He'd found the curse lasted about 2 minutes after taking the cuff off. They'd both found out that the person wearing the cuff wasn't able to take it off no matter how hard they tried.

The only reason she'd been able to leave is because Vlad had told her that as soon as she saw Danny she was to put it on him and tell him to go to him. Told her not to tell anyone about the curse. He hadn't counted on her leaving Amity Park to find someone else to help her. There were tons of heroes that would be willing to help her get the damn thing off.

Logan Paul

I did some research for that Coffe Shop AU fic I did last month, because I got it in my head to set it in Japan, and I wanted to make sure I got Japan right, or at least right enough that it wouldn’t be super-obviously wrong.    The last time I tried to write anything set in Japan was when I tried to write Tenchi Muyo! fics, and I quickly realized I had no idea what I was doing, so I noped all the characters into outer space, where I could make stuff up.    

But that was 19 years ago, and now we have YouTube, with tons of videos about travel and tourism and local custom.    I often regard YouTube with contempt, but I have to be honest, it’s a bigger part of my life than I want to admit.   YouTube taught me how to change the headlights on my old Pontiac G6; it lets me watch all the good parts of Star Wars on-demand, and it taught me not to eat while walking around town in Japan.  

Anyway, now I get recommended all these videos about Japan, and they’re kind of fun to watch.   I checked out one about capsule hotels, because I could never tell if those were are really good or really bad idea.   I’m at least satisfied now that I could fit in one of those things if I needed to use one.   Then I came across this video about Logan Paul.   

In case you’re not familiar with him, Logan Paul is the jackass vlogger who decided to do his show in Japan for a little while, and while he was there he found a dead body in a forest and filmed it.   This drew international outrage, and from what I understand his popularity nosedived afterward.    I didn’t pay much attention to his story at the time, because there’s a million jackass vloggers on YouTube, and it struck me that the only thing special about him was that he had the budget to fly to Japan, and the celebrity to actually get in trouble for doing something offensive.    

Then I watched this video about him on Totally Not Mark’s channel.   It’s no longer there for some reason, but back in September he made this “mini-documentary” about Logan Paul’s attempt to stage some sort of comeback.   As I recall, the basic idea is that Logan’s really, really sorry for offending everyone, but he wants to be a famous YouTube celebrity again, so he’s going to do.... something... and return to his former prominence.   And he’s got a film crew making a documentary out of this quest, so that if he ever succeeds, he can put out this feel-good redemption story.  

The problem is that no one knows what the hell he’s supposed to do to get people to like him again.  I mean, I’m sure he still has fans today, but not as many as he did before, and he seems to want to just hit a reset button and go back to the way things were pre-Japan.   According to Totally Not Mark’s now-deleted video, all he seemed to be coming up with were various sports events for charity.    He had a couple of boxing matches against fellow YouTuber KSI, although I don’t know that either of those fights were for charity.    Judging from his Wikipedia article, he doesn’t seem to be doing anything particularly different from before.    Mark seemed to genuinely think he might have a shot at redemption, even if the path forward isn’t obvious.   

I found the whole idea kind of stupid.   Redemption isn’t about celebrities becoming celebrities again.   If Logan Paul learned a lesson from the consequences of his actions, if he reflects on his bad behavior and takes steps to be a better person, then great, but that doesn’t mean he gets a free pass from the public.    He had an act, and people bought into it for a while, and then he took it too far and it backfired on him.   There’s some things in life you can’t undo.   Watching Mark’s mini-documentary suggested to me that Paul still hasn’t figured this out, probably because he never understood how he got so famous in the first place.    It just sort of fell into his lap before, so he doesn’t understand how he lost it, or how it’s not something he can just recreate at will.  

Anyway, that brings me back to the video above, by “That Japanese Man Yuta”.   In it, he discusses all the other videos Paul made during his visit to Japan.    The video in the forest was taken down, and Paul made a video apologizing for that one, but all these other videos paint a bigger picture of a guy who basically made it his business to wander around in a foreign country and make an ass out of himself.  He horsed around in religious sites, places of business, in the middle of traffic, and pretty much anywhere else he pleased.   As far as I can tell, the joke was one of two things.   Either it was “Hey, I’m pestering these people and they just sort of stand around and let me!” or “Hey, I’m doing the same nonsense I usually do, only this time it’s in Japan!”   

Yuta takes the time to explain exactly why Paul’s behavior is so disrespectful, but it really isn’t even an issue of Japanese culture specifically.    I wouldn’t want him doing that crap in any country, including the U.S.   Seriously, imagine if he went into a church and just started throwing coins around.     Imagine if he went to a big city and ran around in a costume in the middle of an intersection.  There’s a scene where he waves around a raw fish in public, then he gets bored with it and leaves it on the back of a taxi cab.   That might be funny in a cartoon, or some fictional comedy, but he’s doing all this “XD lol random” crap around real people who aren’t even remotely in on the joke.   Really, the joke seems to be nothing more than “Look these bystanders have no idea what I’m doing and they’re confused and annoyed by my antics.”    Then he praises the Japanese people for being “so nice”, as if they’re being good sports about the whole thing.    Well no, they were just tolerating his behavior, and even if they were being “nice” that doesn’t make his behavior right.   

And that’s why his “redemption arc” is doomed to failure.    What Paul doesn’t seem to get is that the same man-child shenanigans that got him in trouble were also responsible for his rise to stardom.    There’s not some magic formula where he can keep doing his old routine and control people’s reaction to it.    And he can’t reinvent himself because the goofball persona was the only thing that made him a big deal.  No one got into this guy because he’s a good athlete.   They want to watch him dress up in stupid costumes and throw shit at people.     Only that’s no longer tenable, so I’d say his only choice is to accept whatever fanbase he has left as his new level.  

I don’t know that I have a point to any of this.   I just watched the Mark video and thought “Wow, this Logan Paul guy is an entitled shithead.”   And then I watched the Yuta video and thought “Wow, he’s an even bigger shithead than I ever imagined.”   I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess that his athletic build, lantern jaw, and curly blonde hair are probably why he’s managed to survive as many scandals as he has.    He looks like the lead in some stoner comedy, and people want to root for him and overlook his flaws.    It’d be kind of interesting to see how he does when he hits forty, but no one will be paying attention by then.

Yes, tell me more about Dustfinger!

(Spoilers for the first book of the Inkheart trilogy. And under a read more because I couldn’t stop talking)

SO. Dustfinger.

Poor guy comes from a basic “medieval fantasy” book where he was a simple fire-eater, with bits of magic and fire speaking in the mix because fuck it, we’re a magical universe, it happens. So, through more magic shenanigans, he finds himself and two awful bastards (who he used to work for but now want him super dead) in our world, in front of a screaming guy with a sword.

He manages to make it out of there without shitting his pants, and is greeted with the lovely sights of 21st century Europe. Can you imagine how fucking scary trucks must look if you come from a medieval period ? So he manages to survive mostly by being a hobo then trying some fire shows for a while, while also going back often to the first guy he met in our world to have this conversation :

“Hey bring me back in our world I’m fucking dying here” 

“Can’t”

 “Pls”

 “Can’t”

“Then how tf did you bring me in if you can’t bring me back”

“shrugs”

So while he just came back from one of those Very Useful trips, one of the two fuckers that came with him is like “Hey yo, so if you just track that guy’s moves and tell us where he’s going to live, we can send you back home. Totes.” So he accepts and gets the guy and his family captured and then discovers that the obvious villains obviously didn’t have his best interests in heart, didn’t have any plans to bring him back and want to destroy every mean he has to do so.

Obviously this gets him a little smad. So for the second part of the book he alternates between helping the nice guys because hey, they didn’t deserve this shit, and trying to not raise the bad guys’ suspicions. All of this while both sides treat him like fucking garbage, calling him a fucking traitor, untrustworthy, outsider that shouldn’t even be here anyways, AND suffering at least 3 cases of “Yeah actually there’s still a way we could get you back. PSYCHED !”

Eventually, they figure out some shit about how some people can make book characters pop in our reality and how some people go in their world in “trade”, yadda yadda, it’s explained better in the book, and they figure the best way to learn shit about the book would be to ask the author ! So they go at his place and Dustfinger’s all like “Yeah I really don’t want to meet this guy, it’d be kinda like meeting my dad but also not making me real ? It’d just be really uncomfortable” and the other people seem to understand, so they go meet the author without him, yet still mention his existence to the author who’s like “Holy shit. I created this guy and now he’s alive. I gotta see him.”

And most of the people think it’d be a bit disrespectful, but the author doesn’t give a damn and tries to “trick” Dustfinger into thinking he’s just an innocent bystander trying to talk to him. It fails horribly. And of course, the author gets really patronizing, treats him more like a thing than a human and then casually slips something like “Oh man, I’m really sad I ended up killing you”. Understandably, Dustfinger freezes and the guy just calmly rambles about the oh so pretty death scene he wrote for him. 

Can you imagine that shit, anon, being treated like you’re basically not real by someone that sees himself as your god and creator and then being told that you’re just supposed to eventually die a rather miserable death simply because he enjoyed that better than seeing you happy with your family ?

So he fucks off outta there, some more shenanigans that I won’t develop happen, (but he basically realizes that he’s been in love with the (lost) wife of the guy that put him into all that trouble in the first place so that’s nice), and the book ends with most of the bad guys dying while some people get teleported in the book, but of course Dustfinger stays in our world because good things aren’t allowed to happen to him, and he has to be the babysitter of some random kid that got teleported from another book in our world and now won’t stop following him.

If this book had been written some centuries ago, Dustfinger would’ve been a Greek tragedy hero and I will keep this opinion beyond death.

Anyways, I really love this guy, the almost “doomed” aspects of his backstory, his wish to go back somewhere where he fucking belongs while always having to juggle between how people see him, what’d be best for him and the “greater good”, the sick fire tricks I haven’t mentioned because this took already forever to type, and also he has a pet marten with horns because that’s just wonderful.

That was a lot of ramble, and I could still develop some shit :p
