Blatant Fanboysm

A writer must like that of what it's writing for, specially when it comes to heroes and adventure. He must enjoy writing about it, so he/she can deliver the utmost effort. That's a good thing.

Now this is blatant fanboysm. This is sending a message. When you put your opinion, as a professional, before even the title of what you're writing about, and the company allows it, it's subliminal brainwashing. A fan group can name its blog "Superman/Wonder Woman Forever", but not a pro. A pro must remain objective, liking what he/she is doing but not telling the public "you must like it too (wink)".

Lork fans, as much as I dislike them, can do it, but not a professional writer. That's why I had so many objections to name a TV show "Superman and Lois" or "Lois and Clark..."

That's ignoring who the important asset is: the superhero.

Soon, we'll have it like in the U.K. : "By appointment with Her Majesty the Queen Lois Lane, First of her Name, we present The Adventures of Superman".

Reality is something similar: Lois is a permanent feature "by agreement with the Siegel Family" which won the court settlement.

I know what you're thinking: I would name a show "Superman and Wonder Woman, Power Couple", but that's different because they are both established heroes with decades of history, together and individually, equal in importance. You can put together "Lois Lane and Steve Trevor, meddling people" because they too are equals, secondary characters confined to their jobs, who happened to conquer the heart of superheroes with no effort, just tradition, back when heroes needed a human person to rescue all the time.

Idk what it is about Starbreaker that makes me latch onto the idea that they deserve to love each other. There’s kind of a desperation to it because Jace was dealt such a shitty hand and there’s also so much tragedy in Porter.

They were both tied together and changed for a bit, which is fine. D20 is bit city and it never bothered me before but it bothers me now. So at the very least if making them fall for each other in dozens and dozens of different ways makes them even a little less tragic and a little less doomed by the narrative I’ll take it. If it gives them back some agency or creates personality where there were notes but nothing concrete? Even better.

I want their mess, I want their drama, I want them living through every romcom and romance genre and trope known to man. I want them finding comfort in each other even if the world is going to shit around them. Always a duo, in every timeline. Even if things are bad, there’s still love there. Even when it’s fucked up, or heartbreaking.

Something about that desperation in Jace’s voice in part 2 of the finale with him calling out to Porter just makes me think about that same tone, that same desperation in the private moments we didn’t get to see.

We follow the protagonists, Porter and Jace were never meant to be anything more than background characters. The lens of the camera is meant to be unfocused on them. But I’m in awe of zooming in and seeing what could’ve been. All those late night that must’ve happened, all of those private whispers while they planned together. The commitment of being tethered to someone for 3 years so much so that the camera turned to them ever so briefly to highlight not once, but twice, that they’re connected.

Even if they’re jokes in canon, two bumbling fools that couldn’t even kill god, the part of them that is treated with care is the fact that they are THEE Aguefort teacher duo. There’s a list of staff we never met, that will never be anything because they don’t serve the narrative. But Jace and Porter do, hell, Porter is one of the teachers that had a ton of screen time and maybe he looked around at the set he was on and said hey, I’m dragging this threadbare excuse for man in front of the camera with me even if we come out the other end changed, we’ll still have each other.

And I got to visit @shahfla’s lovely Kovar again, who she wanted to see getting the chance to give a certain giant wolf some big old smooshy hugs! Re-imagined Kovar also got to trade in his fancy noblebothan gear for a set of beskar, while we considered what might actually lead up to letting him get this opportunity!

MA: You will be madly in love with dark pit for one day

((How do you know that’s not how she feels now? ;3“W-Wait, what?! Oh no! Not another one!”

I am full of explosive rage and pure shame. I have such a deep hatred for myself because of the way I am. Why can’t I help myself? Why can’t I simply be better? Why must I be so horrible? Why can’t I change????
