Taking up the torch
Having a lot of interests at once is great and all but it’s all turning into one big fandom soup. ULTRAKILL? Yeah, that’s the one with the kids that sing for aliens, right? Oh, no, you’re right, that’s was Baldur’s Gate 3 - yeah, yeah, the weird tentacle guys - no, that’s Cult of the Lamb. What blond guy? No, there are so many blond guys. Blond, sassy…Victor Vale? Oh, a Simon? Please, there are so many blond Simons, you need to be more specific.

Always bizarre to see people assert things like “all millennials remember coming home from school and reading Harry Potter fanfic on ff.net”. My parents didn’t even have email until I was 15, and I learned about fanfic in a class in college. I talked about Harry Potter with my friends in real life, when we weren’t selecting LOTR characters to lust after. One girl had a concerningly thorough scrapbook of her favorite LOTR character, compiled from magazines, and was teaching herself elvish. (I was jealous because I wanted to learn elvish but it was on the list after Irish and Latin, because I’m secretly a tenth century monk.) We would talk about how much we hated Jar-Jar Binks, and the kids with better internet access than me would compare notes on the best places to find fan translations of manga. Like, I was definitely a geek and a dork, but I don’t think one single fandom was an inevitability for anyone, even if it seemed that way in retrospect.
Upon my third rewatch I have decided that my favourite scene in Last Rites is Emma in the library. Not least because it gives me Ghostbusters feels, which is something I didn’t know I wanted from this arc until it was too late, alas.
