Just Whatever Sparks Joy

Hi, I'm Alice. I'm twenty-five and I'm from Scotland. This blog is honestly a mess right now. Currently Snicketverse trash with a sprinkling of The Haunting anthology and a dash of many other fandoms.

my favourite thing is characters who just met the person theyre literally going to be wildly in love with for the rest of their lives and theyre like “:/ they’re not all that” this is so embarrassing for u

i really hate the way the "boobs vs butt" thing got broken down into this implicit idea that butt is the nobler stance. it's really stupid. personally im a woman guy. [realizes how that sounds] [purses my lips in thought] [nods confidently] im a woman guy

i love it when the daleks are like “we’re gonna discuss this in private” and then they move like 10ft away and start speaking in their regular speaking voices which is just screaming

"Canon divergence" but it's giving characters the close friendships I think they would have had if canon had expanded a little more.

"haunting the narrative" is one of those phrases i wanna put up on a shelf. not all characters that are dead haunt the narrative. not all characters that are dead haunt the narrative. not all characters that haunt the narrative are dead.

[olympusaflame]

a character who haunts the narrative is a character whose presence in the story itself is sparse to none (!!!!!) but whose actions have major consequences to the story and help to build the theme of the work (!!!!!!!!!) if blorbo blingus doesnt tick both these boxes then im sorry. they are not haunting the narrative. they just died.

[marypsue]

#if the story cannot work without them but also cannot work if they’re present/alive? They might just be haunting the narrative (via @passerparvus)
