the annoying thing about serial killer fiction (writing) is that once you do The Big Kill Scene everything else will feel boring as fuck. there's no way to follow it. so far i have stuffed this chapter with multiple letters, a permanent new family member for the protagonist, the Big Reveal and confession about one of THE major deaths the story has dangled for literal fucking ages, a nastily intimate fight & big fucking aww moment, DEATH BY TRAIN DANGER at 500 ft in the air or something, the imminent arrival of one of the most vital/central characters to the story, and EXTREMELY pointed will she/won't she murder tension toward the secondary character and I'm like "damn so nothing happens in this chapter huh. nobody even died"

It's important to note that Chekhov's Gun was not originally about foreshadowing, but a piece of advice to playwrights about how every element in a play should have narrative relevance. The corollary to Chekhov's Gun is that if a gun mounted on the wall in act 1 is never used at all in the entirety of the play, then it should be omitted from the play entirely.

the kids are calling them "stone fruits." they start off small—think cherries. then they're hooked and they need a quick fix, they get peaches, maybe some nectarines. it's all they can think about. before you know it, they're trying the really hard stuff—apricots, plums. once they taste a mango there's no going back.

Genuine question: if they're remastering Fallout New Vegas genuinely how the hell are they going to release any kind of faithful remake of Honest Hearts in this day and age. like that was pretty repugnant even by mainstream 2011 cultural standards but now it's 2026 and counting. what is their move here. i feel like there's no possible way
