Shane and Ilya's night together at the 2021 All Star Weekend is interrupted by an untimely fire alarm. Chaos and panic ensue.
Snippet:
āItās a fire alarm,ā Shane grits.
āI know,ā Ilya says. āBut why the fuck is it interrupting us?ā
āMaybe thereās a fire,ā Shane suggests the fucking obvious.Ā
Ilya sniffs. āI donāt smell smoke.ā
āMaybe itās on a different floor!ā Shane argues. He really didnāt think this would be a difficult concept to grasp for someone who he thinks happens to be pretty smart.
āAh,ā Ilya says, then kisses Shaneās bare shoulder. āNot our fire. Not our problem.ā
āIlya!ā Shane wriggles away from him. āItās still aĀ fire!Ā I am certain you know how those work.ā
A conversation I donāt think yall are ready for yet is that you can love a character sooooo much and relate to them and see yourself in them but at the end of the day theyāre still fake and thatās why someone elseās take on them or headcanon about them isnāt a direct message about you or insult to your identity. If your identity is so wrapped up in a character that you canāt distinguish between reality and fiction, then you are the problem. Not some random person online who interprets the character differently than you.
this also goes for when you hate a character soooooo much and relate them to every person who hurt you and see everyone you hate in them, at the end of the day they're still fake and someone else's love for them is not a commentary on your trauma
#i also think we should not be using 'i relate to the character' as a claim to authority on the character #just because you relate does not mean your interpretations are law for the rest of us or even correct or 'more accurate' than anyone else's #it just means you relate full stop lmao.

When I was a kid I discovered āI Dream of Jeannieā on Nick at Nite and LOVED it. I think I watched every episode (in the days before streaming) I always wanted a house with a turret so I could make it into the Jeannie bottle
