if I feel like absolutely torturing rocky then I sometimes like to imagine a scenario on erid where a few months into The Scurvy Era grace sits him down like "hey pal. there's a chance that the scientists here won't figure out how to meet my nutritional needs any time soon. I would love it if they can! but it might not happen. and I don't want to die very slowly and painfully of starvation. now listen to me. ideally I don't want to die at all. but more than that. I do not want to die. of starvation. I don't need anything from you to help with this, I can address it on my own, but if this becomes a real problem then I am going to solve it. Do You Understand What I Am Saying Right Now." and rocky isn't even allowed to immediately become evil about it.

I was trying to attempt some smut writing, it was supposed to be cute and fluffy and drama-free, where did this come from.

"Wait." It's dragged out of her before she can stop herself. She's not supposed to say that. She's not supposed to try to stop it. But the hands pull away and he sits beside her. "Morgan?" His eyes and tone are soft with concern, and— there's his mind, gentle and warm. The static fades away again and she forces herself to breathe. It's only Danny. He won't let anything happen to her. "Do you want to stop?" Morgan thinks about it. Takes a moment to revel in the choice. "No," she decides at last, reaching for his hands where he's set them in his lap. "I want—" you, "—this. Just…" she adds, staring down at his hands in hers, sweeping her thumb across his knuckles to feel the way his grip tightens. "Stay where I can see you?" "Of course." He moves slowly as he frees one hand and raises it to her cheek. Deliberately so, giving her time to pull away if she needs to, and she's not sure whether that's endearing or infuriating. She's not fragile, but she can feel her heart hammering in her chest and her hands threatening to shake and it… helps, when he pauses an inch away and waits for her to nudge her cheek into his palm on her own. When he waits for her nod before he leans in to kiss her.

Murder is scary bc a lot of video games are about doing murders, so if someone does murders irl then it could lead to them becoming a gamer. You're literally becoming desensitized to gaming when you do murders.

I was thinking about Morgan living in people's heads in general and especially when she's stressed and. now I'm considering the relative merits of her occasionally panicking and getting stuck in her own head, leading to more panic because she just gets static and it of course reminds her of the Farm. Hm... tasty suffering for my girl...

something i find really interesting about (some) people who don't write is the way they'll elevate plot over execution? it's the way you'll sometimes see people who think they have a best-selling book idea, and they want someone to write it for them while thinking they should get the lion's share of the imaginary profits, because it's their idea. and don't get me wrong, ideas are important! plots are important!

but there are so many stories i've read over the years that could be summarized into a few sentences of bland-sounding plot, and it's the execution that matters. it's the writing. it's the writing!

a talented writer can turn a bland plot into a story you want to devour. and someone who only cares about ideas can take the most interesting idea ever conceived and make it unreadable/unwatchable.

like it does feel like there are a Lot of people in this world who don't view writing as a skill that deserves respect, and who think that really it's all about coming up with shiny ideas. and it does feel like that's uhhh infected a LOT of different things in the modern world. tbh.
