#you have a character thats silly all the time

[thedeafprophet]

I’m reading the thread your meme was used in, and…why so much hatred for Revolutionaries and Liberationists? I’d assume it was personal taste or silly responses, were it not for how genuinely vitriolic it can get. They make it sound like evil star gods who eat humanity are preferable to people making the world a bit darker and a bit freer. Is. Is there something I’m not getting here?

*deep sigh* frankly, i dont get it all either

If I am to give others the benefit of the doubt, I would hope to presume some folks simply get too far into their roleplaying of their characters. since their characters absolutely despise anything to do with the revs and being a decent person, that spirs onto into vitriolic behaviour and far too into constantly hating on and shit talking the revs.

to a certain extent i think, especially in the echo chamber it can become, they dont really get how this comes across to other people, especially those who like the revs. (I had a particular convo with a guy on reddit who i blocked for posting anti liberation conent... and then proceeded to dm me, when i have never talked to them before, questioning me on why. seemed geniuenly baffled that i would have found the anti-revs post unwanted and said they thought the back and forth was 'all in good humour'. of which it is certainly not to me, having had violent 'jokes' directed towards me in past conversations)

If I am. to be a little less charitable. I think this is sometimes shining a less then ideal light on the moral insights of these folks.

Look - im not saying people cant like villains or play evil characters, i mean, im literarly mr fires' pr manager and post about the captivating princess all the time lmao.

But when you're constantly talking about 'how dare workers ever ask for rights' and constantly making out the revs to be horrid immoral monsters (even going as far as to call it 'kind of sick' when the writing has changed its LoN writing to be less in bad faith) it kind of paints a bit of a picture in my mind. At a certain point there really is no other explanation then people being needless edgelords with 'centrists' views promoting the concept that revolutionaries are evil.

perhaps its a bit of a balance of the two - theres many different people around in the fandom, and i of course dont want to make assumptions. but man is it hard as a revs fan when you cant even make a pro rev joke without someone suggesting you should be decapitated. shits rough

tldr: there's nothing you're missing, thats just what these people do

#sorry if its a bit of a non-answer theres just... not really a solid answer here #also the whole thing with the early writing approaching all the revs suff in bad faith doesnt help #the early writing is Not To Be Trusted with rev characters #and no one has bothered to update their view #asks

im quite sad its become a trend in the fire emblem fanbase to hate three houses for being too popular. ive been into this series since i was a kid and i think its awesome wonderful and amazing that a game in the series was able to take off to such success and new heights and im so happy for the series

(also yknow. all the sales means we're going to get like. way more fire emblem games. whats the issue)

like i dunno whenever i try to bring up three houses in a fire emblem space im usually just met with responses of "oh that game is So overrated" "uugh its so slow the monastery is just padding until you get to a battle" "engage is so underrated and miles better than it" "the storys not even that good, people are just convincing themselves it is" blah blah blah

i know they wanna sound different but they just sound rude and kind of boring honestly

i get peoples main reason for hating 3h: its popular, super popular, different, and a lot of people only play it and no other fe games

but like..... i want to put that into perspective:

the nintendo switch is one of the best selling video game consoles of all time. there are literally millions upon millions of people who only have a nintendo switch and no other console, letalone a 3ds or a gameboy advance. many people who only play three houses literally just have a switch

the only other fire emblem game on switch is engage (which i love!!), an anniversary game celebrating the series thats intentionally parallel to three houses by being lighthearted and silly. while it is amazing, most people love three houses for its character and stories, they dont Want something like engage cause its the total opposite of three houses.

actually, i believe in an interview nintendo confirmed 3h and engage were developed at the same time and intended to be parallels

and now a lot of arguments i hear

"just get a 3ds" thats a Lot Of Money. i mean i love awakening with all my heart its such a fantastic amazing game. but that is like. a big investment. thats a reallyyy big investment

"just emulate it" not everyone has a computer, and outside of tumblr (and twitter, the most popular place for piracy) many feel uncomfortable pirating something. and if they dont have a computer, not many people wanna risk downloading potentially suspicious stuff on their phone

"just mod your 3ds" combines the above issues. you need a computer for that. and a proper sd card. and, you know, a 3ds. its actually really expensive to mod your 3ds memes aside. a lot of people love three houses as a fun fantasy story they can get into, they dont wanna make all these leaps and jumps to try the other games

"just watch a playthrough" is a LOT better argument!! and i agree and i do that! ive been watching a path of radiance longplay lately its awesome! but this brings me to my next point

acting like someone isnt a "true fan" of the series because they havent played every game... is such an insult to the series, and its games

in fact, if you think like that, you honestly just view these games as content rather than games honestly??? i mean. is one game just not enough?? people cant just enjoy one video game???

fire emblem games are long and have a Lot of stuff in them. im personally very slow at playing games so i can take a month or so to beat a game, and a lot of others do too! life has a lot of stuff to do, games to many are more of a distraction or fun hobby

and that takes me back to my point. expecting someone to literally just grind and clear through a whole checklist of Really Long SRPGS is like. dumb! honestly!

like. you have somehow taken the fun act of "playing a video game" and turned it into literal work. why would you do that.

like most of the people that made three houses so well selling are just... grown ups who have a nintendo switch and wanted a fun fantasy story driven rpg. why do they have to bend over backwards and spend all their money to play like 10 other video games to appease some angry person on the internet trying to convince themself that 3h is bad

idk, i think its dumb and im disappointed in the fire emblem fanbase that hating three houses has become a trend. i think we should appreciate that our series is able to soar to such heights and that we are bound to get a lot more fire emblem in the future. i love the series and want whats best for it so this makes me so happy

oh and also, yknow, three houses is literally fantastic. like one of the best games on switch and one of my all time favorite games. i mean i like awakening more but i dont really care if someone hasnt played awakening. live your life have fun its not that deep yknow??

also. come on. we have like, the concerningly angry fanbase of a certain nintendo fighting game that is mad nintendo put nintendo characters in the game (but fine with a disney character and like 20 square enix characters) breathing down our neck constantly. we already got enough drama why do we have to fight amidst ourselves????????

all of vectors recipes in the sonic cookbook are like im so broke i need money so bad. and all of charmys are like im banned from eating this because theres so much sugar in it . so i just lie and say theres not any. and all of espios are like *trying way too hard to sound cool and mysterious*

#and by recipes i mean the little notes of the characters talking that come with each one #also the one where vector calls espio and charmy his boys . every time he does that im like AUHGHHH HIS BOYSSSS #and the one where vector is like ''every time you finish one slice youll say ''oh just one more'' until its gone #but that happens a lot faster when a couple of freeloaders decide theyre hungry after all and take your food'' #they are so silly. i love you chaotix i love you sonic cast #also not related to chaotix but the way most of the recipes only have commentary from the character who added it #but most of shadow's also have comments from rouge. theyre literally besties okay #also the villain sub. thats literlaly just the sandwich from sonic unleashed right .

Character Work

Got an ask the other day that asked me how I developed a character, and there was no room to go into it on that ask at all, but I did want to note something. As a fic writer I feel pretty unqualified to write on how to create a character, but I do have something specific I want to say that I've been thinking for a while. I'll keep it just to that. I'll also say that I'm talking exclusively about writing, and not how you engage with fandom. It is, in fact, extremely fun to make an endless series of meaningless headcanons for random dudes. I'm just talking about in terms of how you approach the character from a writing perspective. Which is...

Your OC makes a bad character.

I mean your Dungeons and Dragons character. I mean the character you have a character sheet for, the character you've thought about for years, the one that you are extremely fond of and who feels like a real person to you. The character that is the character, and to change them would feel like changing a person.

Characters should feel like real people to the reader, but as the writer you cannot think of them as people. They are plot devices and a function of the story. They don't need to be fleshed out before you start writing. The actual creation of the character should take place in the outlining and drafting process.

I'm not saying you aren't allowed to stop and think about their favorite grilled cheeses or their sign. There's a few lists of good questions to ask yourself about your characters before you start writing them, such as their desires and their home lives, but the list of actual questions you need to answer are short. And you should try to stop there, because otherwise you're going to over-develop your character and it's going to get in the way of the story.

Assuming you're writing a character focused story, the character's journey is the plot's journey. But the character and the plot exist in relationship to each other. I think of them as two interlocking gears - some things in the plot just can't happen because Character A wouldn't do that, but some things need to happen for the plot to work, so Character A needs to be the kind of person who would do that. Both the character and the plot are in service of what the story is about (Theme, moral, message, etc). These three things have to line up, and they can't overpower each other. You shouldn't try and make round pegs fit in square holes. If a character doesn't fit in with what you want the story to be about (if the story's about vanity and your character doesn't care about vanity) then you need to change one of those things. You can bend the entire plot and meaning of the story around the character, but damn you better have a character who makes a really fantastic story.

You need a character that makes a good story. Some characters don't make good stories, and you need to work super hard to create a story that fits them. That's fine - that can create a unique and great story. Your character has to be consistent and work along their own internal logic. That is shit you absolutely have to stop and work out in the outlining process. Your character needs to make decisions that feel right to the reader - really good stories have the character making the worst possible decision, but in a way that makes the reader understand that they couldn't have done anything else and still been that character. And, like, obviously, give your characters faults and have them make mistakes. A character who does not do that cannot carry a plot.

Fic writers struggle with this. Of course you...shouldn't...be me and completely disregard every characterization, but I do think you can run into the same problem with your blorbo as your D&D character.

Your blorbos aren't actual guys.

This feels kind of obvious, but sometimes I think people don't feel that way. We write fanfic because we like the characters, and we'd rather use these characters and this setting than use our own. I see people projecting on these characters a lot. Like, a lot a lot. It gets to the point where an attack on the character feels like a personal attack - where people defend the character as if they're a real person because they ID so much w/the character. We all know this is dumb, but it also makes for some really shitty fic. The writer becomes completely unwilling to bend the character at all. And they don't try to make the character good for a story, because that kind of involves a lot of faults and mistakes that they don't like seeing their blorbos make. I sound dismissive but it's pervasive. The character becomes a character who makes them feel good instead of a well-written function of the story. The story suffers. Which is alright for some stories, but if you're writing a heavily character focused story like a lot of fic, then nothing is really propping up this story or making it engaging.

None of that is how I develop a character but that is what I wanted to say about characters lol (fwiw, how an OC is created for me is: "I need a character in this spot or representing this thing. Yoink!"). Of course I spoke hyperbolically and took a hard stance on all of that, haha, and of course all of this is rule of thumb. I'm sure your OC is wonderful. Just don't get caught up in them, okay? Go write. The best possible OC is an OC who is born from a good story. That's how you get rich and real characters.

#this is also true for worldbuilding. #my writing #my asks #writing #writing advice #kinda obvious if u follow me that I can go ON and ON and ON about what the fuck is up with some of my characters #and I can kinda promise that for every single one none of that was decided ahead of time #long time readers can see my understanding of the character grow and develop and change the more i write them #so you end up with someone super fleshed out and rich #and sometimes you keep on making so many swerves fifteen degrees to the left that you end up with f101 jon #that being said keep the silly HC coming i fucking love that shit #if no chip sw was an Actual Thing at this point i would go back and rewrite all of it #with what i now know of cody #and thats how the story would be decent lol #but I had to write ALLA THAT to actually get cody you know? #and I could NOT have figured that out just by thinking about him #i promise the advice was solicited this time jalksdf

I remeber looking at Nines official render art yesterday and than later omw to school off-handedly thinking, huh what if he put his hands just a bit higher and over his face, cause hed look just like Fischl lol

So I made him do just that

It would've been cool if it stopped at that, exept now I played genshin again after a while and as a very proud Fischl main and kinnie I couldn't restrain my brain and uh, my hands just took a tumble-

Flowers for princess Blaze

A little fox lives in a dystopian city riddled with tyranny, pollution, and abhorrent industrialization. Abandoned by their parents, and avoided and bullied by their peers for their outlandish interests in mechanics and an odd mutation, they hide away in the city's metro.

There's one small hope the fox clings to since the first days they could remember. Lying hidden and carefully protected within their burrow, there's a small set of fantasy books filled with peculiar writing, hard purple cover ragged at the edges, corners of the pages ripped and scratched up. Not because of mistreatment or carelessness but of constant use, the friction of the paper, and the brush of gloved fingers near daily. They do not know where they got these books from or how they exist in the first place, but they know its their last line of defense against the cruel world ouside.

Books were something unheard of in New Yoke city. Some elders would probably remember them as they apparently used to be a common place from the times way before, times unknown to the young fox, and only relayed in old abandoned picture frames or physical scripts like the ones in their possession.

Everything was now replaced with tablets, holograms, and palm-sized glass screens. And while it was compact, easy to read through, capable of finding any information allowed through by the Council's harsh censoring and simply carried around in one's pocket, it never brought the same blanket of comfort as holding a carefully relayed and glued together mesh of pages filled with endless possibilities of words that made no sense in the context of reality did.

At least not the one the little fox lived in.

They were smart and curious. They knew the hostilities of the world, It hated them for they were different. But hidden away in their little workshop beneath the ground, they found the world inside those books real. Logically they knew it wasn't. It were mere fantasies of days gone past and someone who perhaps had too many elusive substances to consume. But to a young imaginative mind, yearning for the smallest semblances of escape from the cruelness of reality, it began to seem real.

Logically they used to know it couldn't be, magic and ravens didn't exist, cats didn't have fire powers and the only authoritative titles were reserved for the heads of the Chaos Council. But ask the fox and they could recite you the complicated words and tongue-twisting names as if merely striking an everyday conversation. They would spent daydreaming for hours, playing with gadgets and fabric to recreate the magic described on those delicate pieces of paper and practice their peech and amnnerisms, and playing alone down in the subway tunnels.

As the years went on, they unknowingly got trapped in a small game of play pretend. Reasoning one day, that they were so different for they were not of this world, but an exiled royal of another dimension and locked away by their enemies in hopes of losing their power and never returning to salvage the world.

Logically they used to know no such things as alternative dimensions existed. Castles and dragons did neither. Yet a small fox abandoned by the world itself could dream. They merely had to regain their power and ascend back to their world to finally rid it of sin and fight, for a princess never surrenders her nobility and dreams.

They used to know it was just a storybook. But a lonely mind of an abused child looks for any escape possible to them. And sometimes, when there's no one to save them before it's too late, they get lost in their own fantasy.

havent gotten to dbz yet but truly the more i find out about dragon ball the more silly the "sonic maliciously ripped off dbz, everything parallels PERFECTLY" thing becomes to me

#sonic is definitely influenced by dbz but it didnt rip it off. #i think ppl forget that sonic wasnt originally a story heavy series and the super forms werent stuffed with lore yet beyond the one mural #at least iirc #so the super sonic transformation being a super saiyan one wasnt like an original story concept at the time. it was a fun reference #and when it DID get its own thing then it got separate lore to go with it #i think whats pretty malicious about this argument is that it sorta hinges on you not having seen both shows #like when i was a kid and people were insisting sonic ripped off dbz and all the characters were the same #then like. i was assuming vegeta was a test tube baby who was mistaken for goku and had angst towards humans #i was assuming that the dragon balls made you super saiyan bc thats what the emeralds do #you cant have a shonen inspired protag have a super form anymore guys you cant have 7 artifacts cause dbz did it #and the character comparisons are so silly. like they cant decide whether tails is gohan or krillin #tails is gohan cause. hes a little kid who's around the protag. hes smart #shadow kicks silver in one scene and yknow i THINK shadows his dad in the future so theyre basically just vegeta and trunks. cant fool me #chi chi is just like amy cause shes a mean love interest which has also never been done ever #echoed voice

if tf:e bee is my problematic fave then so be it. I'll be the tf:e bee apologist

#spoilers btw #u ppl are Mad mad at tf:e bee? For real? You have genuine hatred in ur heart for yellow man? #u ppl are serious . for real ? #2 times ive seen ppl actually declare they hate him for. a single dark joke #that they wouldn't bat an eye for if it was like another character making that joke #like if it was whirl or blitz they'd be like ''OH HOW QUIRKY OF THESE GUYS joking abt death lollololol'' #but if bee does it and goes against their reductive interpretation of bee just being the ''silly baby boy'' #then bee is cancelled cancelled for million years #like ur operating on the assumption that the autobots caused sounds to be starved. there is no evidence of this #for all we know both sides could have been starving #and projecting a familial relationship between the casettes & sounds #thats not likely to be the case based on how frenzy talks abt how theyre ''free'' from him now #and then assuming bee was actually fine with this and not the chance that bee was joking to cope with that trauma #like a lot of the rise of the t.mnt crew worked on this and. u know smth #first episode leo made a comment on how he jokes to cope #this concept is probably not lost in tf:e #and bee literally had his upbringing be wartimes like u dont come out of that without being at least a little fucked up #like of course he would have dark humor hes seen the horrors of war for his entire life #but even then these are all still assumptions #we DONT KNOW all the details of this event and why bee reacts in that certain way and we may never know !! #it drives me a lil crazy that characters like whirl are allowed to be like this #but bee is not allowed bc hes supposed be only be nice and a baby with no depth #I'll die on this hill btw #bc i am The bee apologist i will defend him #ive been advocating for tf:a bee already. whats one more #🐝 could you repeat the last part? 🟦

thEY DID THE MEME

#it's around the world in 80 days and it's really very good #like every episode theres an obstacle and they always overcome it bc you know they will. but the dangers still feel very real and frighteni #but it always ends okay so thats nice. and there are little comedic moments like this #and the characters have their own like normal biases? like fogg is sort of a nice guy but hes also EXTREMELY ENGLISH RICH GUY #hes patronising toward miss fix here hes dismissive of passepartout. who i guess IS his servant but he also very much treats him that way #and miss fix is the daughter of the editor of the big newspaper so shes also rich and white and english #shes trying to make a name for herself as a journalist and not as her father's daughter basically #passepartout is a black working class french guy whos been everywhere and speaks a hundred languages #it's very good bc fogg will do these things like be really nice to a little italian boy and like. stand up to the boys dad #and then save the boys life and like encourage his dreams and listen to him #like the boy has a book and wants to show fogg and his dad is like 'dont be silly busy men dont have time to read chidlrens books' #but fogg is like 'oh i have read that! enjoyed it tremendously' and just be really nice to the boy #but then also like. is just very english. he expects to be served everywhere. he expects people to accomodate him #he and miss fix both use 'im rich and english' constantly as if that will get them out of trouble bc it always has #'im english you cant treat me like this' 'my dad is rich he will get me out' etc etc i will speak to the manager energy #and bc of the premise of the travel and the dynamic between the three of them i just keep thinking about dw bc THIS IS DW #the doctor IS phileas fogg. like. around the world in 80 days could be a dw au. or au is an aroudn the world in 80 days scifi au #but this show actually sorta like. is honest about that? about the englishness of its protagonist? #like what he did with the boy. he was being all nice to the boy and they were on a train and he also just let passepartout be relegated to #third class while he and miss fix got rooms of their own #he also has bouts of hopelessness where his companions or like a companion of the day has to be like ‘no you can do this’ #idk it just really put stuff about dw in clearer focus for me. like i knew the doctor and like gallifrey are english. #thats what theyre meant to be #but watchign this im like OH. timelords are ENGLISH. got it. like fogg really thinks he owns the world or something? #the doctor does the exact same thing #but it’s really a super good really fun show. if you want something kinda feelgood i can recommend this #also the way that every problem does kinda get solved for him. which is part of like the plot. things HAS to be solved bc he has to win #but still that also adds to that same feeling that dw also gives. things Have to end up alright at the end of an episode the plot demandsit #but that also makes the world bend around the progagonist a little. #but anyway yeah it’s fun you should watch im logging off again now bye

GOD- c!Quackity in marnberg- Quackity in Manberg-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You don't get it!!!!! It's that he was in love- head over heels for L'manburg and infatuated with his husband- but he wasn't just some naïve lovestruck dummy he was resentful- he was vice president- and so when those harsh eyes weren't on him he'd go behind his back and do those little rebellions and curse out his name- but fuck the second they were back on him- it melted away and he'd go from spitting threats to cheering promises that he can make it better- he can make this better- because god when it's good it's so nice and giving up means losing that- all of it- his love, his job, his home, his future- and the good always makes all the bad feel so worth it in the moment- but it didn't matter how much he cared because it got worse and worse right in front of him- and as much as he wanted so desperately too he was never given a chance to fix it- not with those eyes on him- and love mixed with fear- and GOD- JUST ALL OF IT- THE RESENT AND THE LOVE AND THE FEAR-

It all lead up to that moment in the White House... love, fear, and resentment... and resentment won and thank fucking god it did... but-

Even when he had enough he still thought about going back- if it wasn't for c!Tommy he would've gone back- because he was scared, both of c!Schlatt but also being alone- because he didn't want to give up and run away- because he still loved it despite all the bad- he would've gone back-

#okay all of this is to say that- when it comes to portraying c!Quackity in Manberg #you have to remember he was both so in love but also so annoyed- and that's so fucking important- #he'd go from being so heated and furious at his husband to joking around with him the next day- like nothing had happened- #its the fucking mixture of being so fucking done and knowing you deserve better but god... all the nice moments... #it makes you forget how bad it is and how painful it is #and it eats away at you... god- you don't see it immediately but- #c!Quackity post Manberg...... he's never gonna be that optimistic 19 year old jokester ever again #he lives through it but god... it rots you... #c!Quackity in Manberg just fucking breaks me... #yes I am aware I am talking about c!Q back when he was mostly a goofy little man who'd take off his clothes all the time BUT LIKE- #like..... honest to fucking god the lighthearted moments- the 'silly jokes' that get under his skin (because they're suppose to)... #how casual it is... thats what made it feel so real #( also please do NOT fucking read this as shippy... it's not suppose to be shippy at all... ) #( this isn't romance it's tragedy ) #theres just so much about c!Q in manberg- how it reflects him as a character and the way it captures the situation so much- #emotional and verbal abuse rot you inside out and you dont even notice it until you leave
