love when shakespearean tragedies imply that the audience are complicit in the protagonist's downfall/how the story unfolds

Is a story played out if no one is there to watch it?

Nothing worse than your grandparents asking if you’re bringing a boyfriend to the family’s annual deer hunt, and you getting a little ticked off bc you’ve been openly gay for the better part of a decade so you impulsively respond “no I’m bringing my girlfriend” and get a nice apologetic response but UH OH - you haven’t had anything resembling a serious date since before law school and that was like five years ago so now you have to pretend to break up with your alleged girlfriend right before the trip and act all sad about it the whole time which is definitely a much worse fate than just ignoring some vague homophobia, and now your cousins also want details and your parents are like wtf who the hell is this mystery girl, when ALL you really wanted was an excuse to quietly sit in a deer blind for a few hours in November, wrapped in blankets drinking spiked hot chocolate and pretending to look for deer.

see, I love where you’re going with this. my first thought was absolutely “ha I’ve accidentally written myself into a fake dating trope romcom”

but then my second thought was that “hey random stranger, can you pretend to date me during my annual family reunion deep in the backcountry of texas where my very white southern family will be hunting large game for population control and you will be seeing a lot of dead animal symbolism as they uncomfortably stare at you” is literally the premise of a Jordan Peele horror movie

You can buy yourself stuff in the gift shop too, if you have the money. Don’t need to ask a grownup or anything. If you want that toy gorilla it’s yours.
