Some is better than none. Some is better than none. Some is better than none. Walking for three minutes, is better than nothing. Drinking a glass of water and eating a snack, is better than nothing. Wiping down the counter, is better than nothing. Small things are not nothing. Small things are not nothing. Small things are not nothing. You don’t have to achieve grand things if all you’re capable of right now is the smaller things. They are still achievements. Don’t do nothing just because you don’t think you’re capable of doing bigger things, just do something you’re capable of today. 
ok so its a pretty good story but you know what would make it better? a liar. a character who lies. maybe two.
i've been phasing the phrase 'google it' out of my vocabulary and going back to 'look it up'. fuck you youve lost your generic trademark privileges
One thing I will always appreciate Fullmetal Alchemist for is the fact that they let Roy Mustang be complicit in genocide.
Mustang is an Atoner figure. Something that plagues Atoner figures is when writers are too precious about the characters we're meant to like to actually let them be guilty of something serious.
The Atoner might be trying to make amends for their involvement in the Great '87 Hotel Massacre, and then three seasons in you find out what happened. And it's like, "I drove a taxi to the hotel, and the KILLER was in it! I ferried the killer to the hotel! That makes me responsible, and now I must atone for being nearby while the killings took place! And also vanquish the real killer who is the villain for this season."
Or maybe the Atoner did do the killings but they were under mind control the whole time and would never, ever have done it in their right mind.
But FMA said no. Mustang, Hawkeye, Hughes, even Armstrong to an extent though he suffered a breakdown and fled during it. They did that shit. They followed their orders and they did that shit. And it haunts them.
Roy did that shit. And his atonement, his grand ambition, is to see everyone responsible for that shit brought to justice for their crimes. Including himself.
That is how you write an atonement plot.
Well, you know, some bathroom graffiti offers insight.
Red marker handwriting on a bathroom wall. Text reads:
“Boss made a dollar Granddad made a dime But that was a poem From a simpler time.
Boss made a thousand Gave pa a cent But that penny paid the mortgage Or at least it paid the rent
Now Boss makes a million And gives us jack Smugly blames the workers For the labor that he lacks.”
And the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenement halls.

And so, the woman dies. The woman dies so the man can be sad about it. The woman dies so the man can suffer. She dies to give him a destiny. Dies so he can fall to the dark side. Dies so he can lament her death. As he stands there, brimming with grief, brimming with life, the woman lies there in silence. The woman dies for him. - The Woman Dies by Aoko Matsuda

I’ve been thinking about the moment from Mulan where they find the burned village.
Something I’ve seen discussed is how this moment changes the genre of Mulan. It abruptly cuts off the film’s last song - A Girl Worth Fighting For - and the rest of the film plays out like an action film/war film. There is a brief reprise of I’ll Make A Man Out of You, but it’s non-diegetic. The characters don’t sing again, Mulan is not a musical from this point.
But something I haven’t seen discussed is that Walt Disney Animation Studios did not release a traditional musical for eleven-years after Mulan.
Mulan was followed by Tarzan, a film with a strong soundtrack that isn’t a traditional musical. It had one song sung by characters in the film, but even with that I think most would agree it’s not necessarily a musical.
Tarzan is seen as the last film of the Disney Renaissance, a period of critical acclaim and financial success for Walt Disney Animation Studios since the release of The Little Mermaid. The next decade of Disney animation would be defined by experimental storytelling. Films that dabbled in genres, themes, animation techniques, and subjects Disney was not known for. Some, like Tarzan, used music prominently in their film and/or had one song sung by the film’s characters. But none could be considered musicals in the traditional sense until The Princess and the Frog in 2009.
Considering the real world context, this scene in Mulan doesn’t just signal a tonal shift for the film. It represents a changing focus at Walt Disney Animation Studios. A move that shows they were not happy resting on their laurels and wanted to take risks audiences didn’t expect.
This scene in Mulan is one of my favorites, but now I like it even more.
treasure planet writers: parental abandonment is a wound that never truly heals. it shapes a child in a very specific, very painful way. it leaves them longing for love for the rest of their life and, even worse, it convinces them they are intrinsically unworthy of that love. they feel they must beg and bargain and work for every ounce of affection and attention they receive. many children are plunged into poverty in the wake of the abandonment, causing them to fall even further through the cracks as their life becomes about survival. some of them internalize their anger and shame to the point that they become self-destructive, shutting out their loved ones and sabotaging their own success. in short, the effect of abandonment upon a child cannot be overstated.
