I feel like Godzilla Minus One is the clearest example I can give that any monster, no matter how well-known and "unthreatening" they've become in pop culture, can be an effective source of horror if you make them menace characters we actually give a shit about. Like, for all the directors and writers who want to blame well known monsters for no longer having the element of surprise and thus no longer being scary - "Oh, the xenomorph is the problem, people know it too well to be scared" "Oh, vampires can't be scary anymore, they're too corny, too overexposed" et cetera - it's pretty clear that the real problem is that they didn't want to put in the work to make us care about the characters the monster is menacing. It's a skill issue, honestly.

[tyrantisterror]

Like, is there a greater sense of terror you can experience than the moment we see our four goofy, lovable mine detecting heroes on their ramshackle wooden boat watch in horror as Godzilla emerges behind them, massive and unbeatable? Yeah, actually, there is, and it's when Noriko, one of the sweetest, kindest characters ever put to film, is trapped in a train with Godzilla bearing down on her, with no clear escape route, forced to wait until the inevitable doom comes for her and pray that by some miracle she can survive.

These aren't scary moments because we "don't know what Godzilla is." They're scary exactly BECAUSE we know what Godzilla is, that he is an insurmountable threat, that everything in his path has been annihilated so far and likely will be in the future, and that our heroes are very much normal and mortal beings who cannot hope to stand a chance in a fight with him. Fear of the unknown is powerful, yeah, but greater than that is the fear of death, and you exploit the fear of death by making us want characters to live. And by god, do we want the cast of this movie to live.

Hi folks! I'd like to make a general PSA that feels necessary in the RPC lately:

ALWAYS read someone's rules THOROUGHLY. This is non-negotiable. People's preferences, triggers, and other pertinent information are contained there. This should realistically be done PRIOR to following. If something is unclear, ask about it. ( It is painfully obvious when you skip this step. And it's disrespectful af. )

PLEASE REBLOG FROM THE SOURCE. Some people practice reblog karma in the instance of memes ( this is when you send the person a meme from the post before you reblog it directly from them ). Others don't. This is why rules must be read. When in doubt, reblog from the source. In the instance of any other posts ( aesthetics, photos, quotes, etc ), reblog from the source always. This is basic RP etiquette at this point. Using someone as a reblog source not only clogs up their notifications, it's also considered rude. ( An exception is if the source is a deactivated account. )

One final reminder: this is a hobby. People have lives outside of the RPC and their activity may reflect that. Be patient with people. If you can't wait for a response, then find accounts that are as active as you are. But understand that a huge portion of the RPC can and will be active when they so choose. You are not obligated to someone's time. Patience is a virtue; learn to adopt it.

GABRIEL (@musesfromthefifthdimension):

"Now, Sadie," Gabe said, a gentle firmness in his expression as he patted her shoulder, "You're a good woman, good head on your shoulders. You've resolve, passion, and a drive to protect others. In this world of ours, you've got to make sure nothing lets you lose sight of that. Not even grief."

Who is this stranger, and how does he know her name, and so much about her?

━━━🥀━━━

❛ how... now, wait a damn second. did some fool put you up to this?! ❜ now, normally, she'd shrug something like this off with a word or a threat or two and be on her way. after all, she runs into all manner of folks talking all kinds of nonsense most every day. but, there's something about this fella and his words that's got her speechless. speechless and curious. 'cause he seems to know all about her... to know her. ❛ i ain't in the mood. tell me your goddamn name- an' how in the hell you know mine. how d' you know me, huh? ❜

[musesfromthefifthdimension-a]

"No, Madam; nobody put me up to this," Gabe responds, breathing a silent laugh. It isn't that he finds anything she's said funny. No, it's just that when you speak to so many human beings in your immortal life, you come across quite a few like this one: stubborn ones, ones who will tell him just where he can shove his trumpet the second they say a word to him, no matter how much truth may be within those words.

"Call me Gabe," he says, then following a pause adds, "Short for Gabriel."

He sets his trumpet down and holds out his right hand to shake. He's well-dressed — heading to a performance this evening, perhaps? "We've not met, not directly, but I do know of you, Miss Adler. Please forgive the intrusion — I meant no offense by it."

[From Season 1, Episode 22 of The Twilight Zone, called "A Passage For Trumpet" - this is the one scene Gabe is in! So if you don't know him, now you do.

Jack Klugman (Joey) is truly incredible, but Gabe's actor steals the show here from even him. Just. The gentle, divine presence of him is so damn good, and he doesn't come across as condescending or ulterior-motived for even a moment.

All this isn't to so much as mention the amazing dialogue written by series creator Rod Serling, or the visual storytelling with those harsh shadows and bright lights.]

"You take what you get, and you live with it." Gabe noted, smiling softly and patting the other on the shoulder with a warm hand. "Sometimes, it's sweet frosting, nice gravy. Sometimes, it's sour, it goes down hard, but you live with it."

“Mister Bemis! Mister Bemis!” Melody’s calling was paired with a loud buzzing of her wings and spins and twirls performed in the air for his attention. “Look here! Watch me!”

When she settled excitedly atop one of the open book’s pages, she stood directly over the word she carefully sounded out, pointing at each letter. “o, en, e. w… uh… nn.” Then, reading and gesturing at its entirety: “One. One!”

She giggled and clasped her claws together and looked up to Henry, ecstatic. “Did you see? I learned another word!”

(for henry obv :) see him on dash and brain goes brrr)

@houseflyy

Behind his thick-lensed glasses, Henry's eyes blinked several times. His mind was stitching together the scene, the disparate pieces darning together very gradually, until —

"Why, you're learning to read!" he exclaimed with glee. "You really did that all by yourself, Melody! That's marvelous! Wonderful!!"

His mustache was practically pointing upward from how wide his smile was.

"How did you learn to do that? Did somebody teach you? Or- or, or maybe, did you teach yourself somehow? Now, I wouldn't consider myself a teacher, but I could maybe help you!"
