too many stories, not enough time @doubleabatteriez - Tumblr Blog

hi everybody, welcome to my blog! :)

i'm a student, aspiring author, and major nerd. tumblr is the place I come to ramble about all the things that take up space in my mind that would make me look weird in person lmao

I edit when inspiration hits, here's the link to all mine! - doubleabatteriezedit

I also write fanfic sometimes, all the stuff I've posted is below:

i’ll bandage up your body (and your bad days, too)

rating: teen

word count: 8,237

chapter count: 3/3

pairing: micheal “robby” robinavitch/jack abbot

tags/warnings: established (married) jack abbot/micheal “robby” robinavitch, drug overdose, suicide attempt, hurt/comfort, angst with a happy ending, post cannon, post season 1

jack sees the people walking down on the sidewalk, through the park and next to the fountain, and jack wants nothing more for that to be him and robby.

for them to go on a run together一 even though robby hates it, he still tries because he wants to spend time with jack. or to have a picnic in the park, on that soft green gingham blanket gifted to them by dana when they got married. making dinner together on one of their few days off together, waking up in bed to the sun flitting in through their curtains.

jack hates himself for not noticing it sooner.

there's something to be said, i think, about modern fandom's increasing fixation with paratext versus canon -- whether that's something as substantial as entertainment articles, actor interviews, comments from showrunners, bts footage, and deleted scenes or something as insubstantial (and often misleading) as an actor's body language while they do promo, unsubstantiated rumors of displeasure or friction between the cast and/or the writers, and full blown conspiracy theories ("there's a secret unaired episode that will make everything right" is a popular one right now). maybe it's obvious to say that this probably stems from an audience that is fundamentally dissatisfied or disinterested in the story they're being told and instead privileges the story they've convinced themselves they've been told by virtue of their fandom experience. in other words, that there's a kind of enmeshment that happens for some of us where the meta-analyses, headcanons, and fandom chatter (which often takes a kernel of truth from canon and runs with it to often fascinating but not always legitimate readings) becomes blurred with what is actually canon to the media we're enjoying. at least, i can certainly trace where this blurring of boundaries has shown up with me in my long history with fandom, particularly when i was coming of age.

i think it's uncomfortable, but often necessary to recognize when we're watching a show or a film or reading a book or playing a video game with different expectations or desires than the story ever promised to fulfill. simply, you can't draw blood from a stone, you know? and I think this idea, however simple, is often very easy to forget when you're in fandom because fanworks are innately transformative. in fandom, we draw blood from stones all the time. we re-imagine characters, relationships, universes in whichever way we deem fit so that we can experience wish fulfillment. but as the fourth wall between fandom and the creatives behind media becomes thinner and thinner, the boundary between what is the job of storytellers (to tell a story), what is the job of the audience (to receive the story or opt out), and what is the job of fandom (to connect with one another over shared imaginative and transformative reception of the story being told) is getting muddied to detrimental effect. coupled with the rise of hyper-individualism and the increasing commodification of fanworks into traditionally published forms, this is where we get a real wave of entitlement from fandom -- this sense that the storyteller owes something to us by virtue of our fannish devotion and that perceived failure to meet our desires is worthy of a host of outrage and abuses. i think this is where paratext comes in and why the notion of what is or isn't canon feels perhaps more debatable now than ever before. i think it's born from a blend of hyper-individualism effecting how we think and behave as audience members, the increasing sense of entitlement that is borne out of such individualist thinking, the vanishing of the fourth wall between fandom and the mainstream as well as the creators of media that fandom enjoys, and a growing inability to accept the story you're being told on its own terms (and go happily and exclusively to fandom to remedy the urge for something more). because, really, what paratext offers is a sense of legitimacy -- usually when it conveniently upholds what you privately wanted in the first place. if the show you love isn't giving you enough to substantiate your ship, you can get your fix through an actor's interviews, their exposure to fanfiction and fan art, and their perceived approval of the ship. their opinion, by virtue of their literal proximity to the show, legitimizes your own. if the movie you love doesn't do enough with a character you find interesting, a scrapped plan for what the character might've done or a deleted scene might do the same. etc etc.

And while I think it's fine to find the perspectives of actors and showrunners interesting, I do think you get into messy waters when you consider these things just as legitimate as what makes it onto the page or screen -- because, factually, that just isn't true. and if you step outside of fan spaces, you often see this disconnect: i'm sure we have all had the experience of talking to a friend, a parent, or a coworker who "isn't online" and is completely flabbergasted by fandom discourse or simply never would've come up with a popular fanon interpretation or critique if you'd given them a hundred years. because casual viewership (which is almost by definition never going to seek out actor interviews, articles, social media stories, and what an actor likes or doesnt like on instagram) is receiving only the text: the story that, by virtue of the many forces that constrain, edit, and transform the myriad intentions of every person involved in the project, finally and actually made it to the screen. and i dunno, i wonder sometimes if there's something to envy in that.

Being a fan of female characters in fandom is it's own kind of torture because a guy can be a jerk to just about everyone with one moment where he doesn't and people will grip onto that, but a woman is a little bit rude or has an outburst during high stress and she's scum of the earth. Whatever. Whatever. I'm fine. I'm normal.

see I love to romanticize rabbot but I know for a fact that, in real life, they'd be miscommunication, baggage, repressed feelings, and distancing central. the only thing they can do right is sex, and actually I don't even know that for a fact.

#the issue is that they love each other #so they both kinda willingly suffer through it #until honestly Jack caves and makes them talk #or Robby does something dumb because his abandonment issues and insecurities are flaring up and they fight and then they finally understand #-whats going on #yk #I don't think they'd break up though neither could handle it #the pitt #michael robinavitch #jack abbot #rabbot

robby having a psychiatric service dog headcanons <3

he would never get one for himself, it would absolutely take jack pulling up to his apartment on a random day with a dog by his side

I think it would happen during his sabbatical in an amazing hypothetical where he never went to canada and just took the three months off locally and actually got help

jack has been convinced that robby should get a pet for years, and he finally caved under his own opinion when he heard one of his old buddies from the army was training psychiatric dogs for people with PTSD and other mental disorders.

he picked up the dog (I decided it was a husky/australian shepard mix named oreo) and all of it's things to move right in with robby and pulled up at his door.

robby took some convincing, but having all the certification paperwork/harness and the bed, food, treats, bowls, etc ready made it hard for him to say no. especially cause jack already spent the money...

"you're joking" "not at all" "a dog is a lot of work jack" "he's fully trained, and he'll give you a reason to get out of bed every morning and get some sun."

robby took him in and was only slightly annoyed at how he had to change his life around the animal (he won't say it out loud but it was for the better)

things went mostly well; robby had to get incredibly used to having comfort whenever he felt tense or uncomfortable. it almost shocked him, even though he knows how well these dogs get trained, how intune oreo was with every feeling he had. the deep pressure therapy he received the first time he started panicking around the dog helped more than he cared to admit.

the only bad incident was one shitty night when robby was severely spiraling after a therapy appointment that pressed on too many buttons and he closed the door on oreo. he was in his bedroom sobbing while the dog was barking to let him in. lucky for both of them, jack came by that same night after he covered a morning shift and remedied the situation. "he's here to help brother. you can't just shut him out, it's his whole purpose to be there for you in moments like these."

ultimately, once robby fully adjusted, he loved that dog to bits. he got him nice toys, they went out on walks every day, he even took him out for errands although the looks he got sometimes made him feel odd. oreo ended up being a perfect addition to his treatment plan, and turned out to be the company robby has been needing for years.
