Unwanted opinion but my number one beef with Atlantis as a film is that when our sweet boy Milo meets Kida and she gives him her name, he flubs that shit immediately and they settle on a nickname.

Obviously this gets me in the way that assigning a nickname to someone with an ethnic name is r@cist and stupid. But also

MY BOY WAS A FUCKING LINGUIST! He spoke MULTIPLE languages, including dead ones, and atlantian (albeit with a poor accent because, again, dead language)

This dude was so horny for languages that he spent his whole life studying them. And he can't pronounce Kidagakash? Come on.

so a very long time ago, my dad worked with an arson investigator

this guy was often one of the first people on the scene following a suspected arson, once emergency services had done what they needed to do. at times, there were also civilians on the periphery. often, they were freaking out, and understandably so; their home or workplace had just, quite literally, gone up in smoke

this investigator wouldn’t try to calm them down. he wouldn’t comfort them or be a shoulder to cry on.

instead, he’d walk up to the person most visibly losing their shit, hand them a fire extinguisher, and say “hey, can you keep an eye out for any other fires, and if you see one, can you put it out with this?”

of course, there was no actual risk of another fire. he wouldn’t be on the scene investigating if there was even a chance that the fire wasn’t completely put out. but the bystander didn’t need to know that

because that person, without fail, would immediately pull it together, take the fire extinguisher, and stand guard. they were, at least temporarily, calm enough for this investigator to do this job

my dad has told me the parable of the fire extinguisher a hundred times, and i think about it a lot. i think about what it says about people and crises. i think about what it says about the grounding power of having a purpose. and i think about the importance of letting someone help me through something, even if that help is just going to be another casserole to throw into the freezer, because useless or not, that fire extinguisher might be the only thing holding them together

my high school english teacher would often critique our literature analysis work by pointing out: "you're treating these characters like they're real people. They're not. They're characters". And it took me a long time to understand what he meant by that. Because I always thought "isn't that the point? That writers want to write characters to be so three dimensional that they act and feel like real people?" but that's not it.

Characters are tools a writer uses in service of a story. Of course characters can be written with depth to the point they feel real to us, but they exist in service of their narrative. Something real people aren't beholden to at all. When discussing characters, I think it's easy to accidentally see these characters as "real people" and not extensions of the author's beliefs. Tools for a narrative. Means of storytelling.

Okay but something I really love about Laurent's character is that he loves to gamble, he's great at lying and the long game, he's a dommy bottom and a brat

...and he comes up with the WORST codenames imaginable

I believe he does it on purpose to fuck with Damen, because that bitch is entirely too put together and calculating to make that kind of mistake
