Spark: what’s the core theme or idea behind this AU? What do you want us to take away from your work?
That! Is a hard question. I suppose the big theme behind Reflections would be that It Gets Better.
But only if you let it. It’s hard at first but you have to work every day to do a little better than you did yesterday. And everyone is capable of doing that, of doing better no matter who they are- the only thing they need to have is the desire for change and the strength to keep going. (Of course, the strength to keep going is for some the only thing they need, it’s situation dependent, yknow?)
#ask#hugsforvillains#ask meme#transformers: reflections#mod post#i hope that makes sense?????#but like basically a lot of the story deals with mentally ill or bad ppl learning to cope#so their whole arcs ARE it gets better u just need to stay strong and try#good example being facade#he starts off the whole story as a Bad Person but one who keeps trying to do better#and by the end of the story finally has shed a lot of what made him bad in the start#because every day he keeps working to do one more good thing than he did before#no matter how small it is he still tries#and so on so forth
