ok so your first problem was assuming mdzs is a story where Good People are Rewarded and Bad People are Punished.
your second problem was assuming that MXTX—who goes out of her way to showcase unresolved, tragic, undeserved endings in all of her works—would ever write a story with such a shallow notion of “deserving.”
the only reason wangxian makes it out unscathed is because they’re literally the protagonists. authorial intent and plot armor ensure their happy ending. that’s it.
It's really cute that they've been making Fang a secret romantic. He's an emotional guy!
He's lighthearted naturally, has shown to get angry in his voicelines, and there's a passion in him that he wants something bigger than a dead end job.
(Cough cough.)
I say secret romantic by the way, because he's always covering up proof of it! He puts so much of himself into any kind of bond, but romantic ones take the cake.
Secret picture of Shelly ❣
Whoever he broke up with, he carries a picture of them around. He laments.
HIS BIGGEST SECRET IS WATCHING ROMANTIC MOVIES. PLEASSEEE
He keeps his favorite romantic films locked away.
It was totally his idea (out of the two) to ask Shelly out to the Tunnel of Love. Too bad Willow's a hater, lol.
hiiiiiii, can you imagine Olli and Allu having had brainstorming sessions together, where Olli showed Allu some of the outfit designs and Allu showed Olli some tracks he'd been working on? They would compliment each other all the time because they're secretly crushing on watch other and they'd blush hard with every compliment and and and 😭😭😭😭💘💗💘💖💘💖💘💖
(because I'm imagining it right now and it's so fucking sweet)
have a lovely weekend, love youuuu 💗💖💕💖
listennnnn 😭😭😭😭 I bet they do that, I bet they get so excited for each other about their projects and always want to hear the other's opinion on what they're working on 🥺💞
I'm also imagining them living together as boyfriends (or husbands even 😭) and just working on their own projects and minding their own business but still doing it together and suggesting stuff for each other and djlfjsljfdjfldkf how cute would that be 🥺
also another question: in your lesbian Devil’s minion au, would all the characters be lesbian, or at least bisexual women, to maintain their relationship(s) to Armand similar to canon, or would Lestat, Louis, Marius ecc be dudes? I’m curious.
(hope I am not annoying you)
Absolutely not annoying me!! I love talking about these guys :D
So in my ideal dyke world they would all be women <3 (please picture fem!lestat if you will. Hhh)
I think it could be fun to experiment with fucking around with everyone’s gender because it would change the storyline a lot!!! So like maybe in certain fics or scenarios or whatnot I’d leave certain characters the same but preferably they would all be lesbians or bi women
Firing rent lowering gunshots by rambling about deliberate joy because of not despite the absurd paradox of it all, love, despair, and the inexorable divine
what i appreciate about midnight motel is that it’s super fast paced, in a really engaging and hilarious way, but it’s also slipping out details about the characters in what feels like the slowest way possible.
the details get fed to us in tiny slithers, flashing unobtrusively up onto the screen in between the beats of the main story - and that makes the pacing of those reveals feel dissonant to the rest of the episode in a really cool way.
and it’s fascinating because it feels like they’re just leaking out small drips of information and then not talking about them again.
but because this is a dark comedy, it’s so hard to know how seriously to take it all - like, are these tiny bits of character story clues as to what’s actually going on? or should we just be taking it at face value, for the wild heightened reality it is?
we’re halfway through and there are all these tiny little plot threads that are appearing without being resolved - like who has pat’s money, what was up with that conversation between mote and doy about kat, who is the boss, what the fuck even happened to pat exactly. also why could tawi from not me track pat’s car, but not his PHONE? bitch, you don’t have find my friends on? also i have questions on literally everything involving sun and kat. so so many questions. also is mote really a teenager bc off jumpol is my age and i look youngish but “teen” is a stretch and like… off… off, my hetero husband, i swear i’m gonna save you from being cast as a teenager one day like i KNOW you’re talented but you don’t deserve to be teencoded like this like i’m gonna help i’m gonna get you out of here-
i’m just so curious as to whether i should be paying closer attention or not to the little things the show has been quietly telling us, or if it’s simply better to just go with it, because it’s a 6-episode comedy that repeatedly breaks the fourth wall, and why think about it too hard.
me, through gritted teeth and blurry tears, doing literally anything:
it doesn't have to be perfect it just has to exist, it doesn't have to be perfect it just has to exist, it doesn't have to be perfect it just has to exist, it doesn't have to be perfect it just-
just searched for and saved this video because it’s literally so important and i think about it all the time and try to reference it and nobody understands but it made me blush n giggle a little bit
