A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara

“Why wasn’t friendship as good as a relationship? Why wasn’t it even better? It was two people who remained together, day after day, bound not by sex or physical attraction or money or children or property, but only by the shared agreement to keep going, the mutual dedication to a union that could never be codified.”

ITALive - A Little Life

It's about 8GB.

Here it is! The full performance of Een Klein Leven, in its 4-hour-long glory. Note that the portion originally missing from the English stream is not subtitled but features precious little dialogue anyhow. My endless thanks to _ZERO-ErRoR_ZROE for putting all of it together. Further thanks to all of you who contributed your recordings–none of this would have been possible without you.

Enjoy!

What to do when you have OC but can’t figure the plot.

Aka self-help guide how to kick start shit in motion.

First do some preparations. You will need:

That gorgeous baby you want to do a thing with;

pen & paper (alt. a computer/laptop/whatyouhavethere);

better if a reference sheet or some notes at least but if you don’t have those it’s ok;

some coffee/tea;

some will power or a wall to bang about your head, if you have none.

Done? Good! Let’s start! Our goal is to document the shit as it unfolds.

[EDIT]: I’ve added new ones.

1. Write a list of things that your character DOESN’T WANT to happen. Make at least one of those thing happen. Now your character has to deal with what happened.

2. Write a list of things that your character WANTS to happen. Make at least one of them happen. But not in a way how character wants/anticipates/imagined it. What xe is going to do about it now?

3. Let’s combine uncomfortable with unpleasant! Make a list of things your character want or wants to happen, now make a list of things they are NOT comfortable with or bad at or inexperienced with or all at once. Done? Good, now in order to get something from a first list, your character must face something from a second list.

4. Don’t feel like a butt or have a bad day? Make a list of things your character is good at. Now take that list of things xe wants. Match them as you please.  Observe what happens. Surprise! Not all things that happen to your character have to be bad in order to make interesting plot.  And you will feel a bit better too.

5. Alternatively, you are feeling especially sadistic? Let me help you! So your character wants something? And xe needs to do something they are good at in order to get it? Great, now think of all the ways everything can go the wrongest way possible. Write down all the things! And see how your character going to deal with the chaos.

6. Think about this: is there something or someone your character relies on  yet takes for granted? Make a list if there is more than one. Good, now take at least one of those away and see what happens.

7. Write down problems, struggles or just some stuff your character has to deal with daily or at least often. Think of several possible ways to solve them but which are going to cause more problems in the long run.

8. Write down a list of things your character loves and DOES NOT take for granted. Take away one or more. Let character deal with the loss.

9. Take two characters who in several ways are opposite to each other. Do they hate each other already? Good. Now character A wants a thing character B has. And they need to negotiate. Write down all the possible solutions. Apply one that is the most embarrassing for both parties.

10. I have to words for you: ARRANGED MARRIAGE. And no, your character can’t run away from it. And xir friends or/and family can’t help them either.

11. Alternatively, escaping arranged marriage is what you character must do.

12. Take your character and make them do things FOR  SCIENCE! Then make them face the consequences.

13. Do things FOR SCIENCE to your character. What are the consequences?

14. Your character has died. But it’s the least of xir problems now. Describe why.

15.  Your character makes unexpected discovery and has to deal with consequences. (If you are bad at coming up with ideas for discovery - let it be a puppy or a parrot or any other animals for your liking. Or anything at all, like robot or a mecha in their backyard).

16. Go to the internet and find the most outrageous story of stupid shit somebody did while drunk. Okay, now your character is the main “hero” of this epic horribleness. Write down things with corrections according to your character’s abilities, limitations, setting and etc.

17. Your character wants a thing. But here is a problem: another character is constantly preventing xe from having it. Write down all possible solutions to this situations. Now pick up the one which is going to cause the biggest mess.

18. Completely out of ideas? Have a person with a loaded gun burst throw your character’s door while xe are doing xir daily routine. How your character reacts?

19. Now something completely terrible and twisted: give your character a cute little puppy. Make them love it, care for it, cherish it. Let it grow into a beautiful adult dog. Smart, funny, loyal and loving.

Done? Good. Now find that character that you need as antagonist. Now make an antagonist steal the dog. Make sure your character know how did such atrocity.  Now xe must go and save the pupper. Oh and make sure to switch to your antagonist every now and then, to see how they are doing too.

Here is the twisted part: while your character is making xir way to where antagonist is, the dog is starting warming up to them. In fact, by the time you character is going to get there, the dog gonna love antagonist even more than it loved your character.

Good, now let the character deal with this  situation when they finally get there.

20. Give your character a dog, let them bond. Now write down all the terrible things you character DON’T WANT TO happen to the dog. make at least one of them happen. Observe the horror.

21. Give your character a dog. Observe warm feels.

22. Your character is busy with their daily routine at home, somebody rings a bell/knocks on the door. Your character opens and they see a fish tank on wheels with octopus inside that asks if xe has a minute to talk about Our Lord And Saviour Poseidon. What will your character do?

23. Your character’s neighbour is the worst because of the reasons. What are the reasons and what will your character do about them?

24. Your character is hired as X in some remote place. They offer dwelling and free meals too. Job is one your character would like. But the rules here are strange and there is something wrong with that place outside…

25. Your character bought a house. Too bad it’s haunted. Write down all the solutions to the problem. Pick up one that causes the most property damage.

Next part is here.
