what the hell I watched the wgf x peter straughan script breakdown of conclave (2024), took notes, and made graphics of the script + screenshots so you didn't have to. have a visual guide.

what you need to understand fundamentally about the doctor is that the doctor runs away from things. you must take this as a challenge to write the deepest and most devastating things. and then the doctor will run away from that too.

Hi Byler fans, I have written something for you all. 💙💛

I am a neutral watcher of Stranger Things BUT I did feel like the connection between Mike and Will was very special, and season 5 (although was a BLAST) seemed to forget about these two. I understand the sadness for what “could have been.”

So! As a bittersweet I-see-you viewer of this show, I rewrote the one-on-one scène between Mike and Will in S5.

I want to say, I respect the original scène and think the writers are great at their jon, BUT this is a reminder that you can write your own story and believe whatever you want to believe.

“What’s the plan?”

Okay, I know I am late to the party in this one, but I have *finally* seen Heated Rivalry and it’s phenomenal and I have Thoughts.

One of my thoughts is about how different the same line is from different mouths.

FYI spoilers.

Ilya’s father has just died. The man was cruel and hard but Ilya couldn’t help loving him, and Ilya’s brother has been a lead weight Ilya can’t stop bleeding for. At the funeral, his brother corners him and asks him what his plan is now. Demands it. How are you going to take care of us now that dad is gone. It cuts Ilya down and is the final push to make him reject the role his family has for him.

Then in the last episode, Shane’s mom asks him the same thing. Whats the plan? But it’s *completely different*. She isn’t asking anything of him. She’s pivoting immediately to square up solid in his corner, ready to do whatever he needs. It’s so different. It’s the same line, both delivered from family after a shock, and it communicates so much more.

There isn’t a right way to love someone. There isn’t a right thing to say when they need you. It’s the context and the love and how you show it that matters, and the fact that this show and these actors managed to put so much into the simple, clean subtlety of the script that made the most throwaway lines stand out and show so much is just. This is just one detail in so much that shows the brilliance of everyone who worked on this.

So uh. Yeah.

If you haven’t yet, fucking watch Heated Rivalry. Jesus. This show is amazing. The acting is amazing. The CAMERAWORK, fuck. Well fucking done.

after two weeks of not writing anything I just hallucinated and woke up to a full 10 page script in one sitting…I…how…

I will learn nothing about the value of rest and will simply assume my next bout of writers block is a supreme moral failing. ta!

Scripting for beginners

Ok so scripting is you basically deciding the details of your reality you want to go. It's not mandatory but in my opinion it's really beneficial. Especially if your reality is detailed or you don't wanna leave anything to pure luck.

Where to start or format is totally up to you and your liking, but I personally start from writing down my drself's identity under titles like

> IDENTITY

Name, gender, birth date/place, species, appareance etc you can detail it as much as you like. Also, if you have a rough model of what you want in your mind, that's also fine. You can also add voice, face and body claims to your liking. Some people even add personality claims.

What's most important is 2 factors in my opinion;

1- precautions and scripting proper safety rules. They're crucial especially for dangerous Drs.

2- lifa notebook/lifa app. For those who are unfamiliar with them, they're basically an instant manifesting tool that you write into and it acts like a portable script for you.

Again, everything is optional. Your script does NOT have to be very detailed or detailed at all. Common safety rules I script are like;

1- I am tolerant to pain and I can't get severely injured/catch diseases (you can add no injures or immortality if you like)

2- my loved ones and I are mostly safe and nothing outside my will can happen.

3- I'm mentally and physically resilient, I don't get traumatized by the stuff I witness

4- I'm a master shifter/manifestor and I can go back to CR or to another Dr in seconds

5- I always have my lifa tools in reach

I also personally added a little smart watch with an assistant in it that gives me details about my reality, checks my vitals and takes me to a safe room if I panic or get anxious or simply need rest.

Now those are being said, I also add setting to the script as in the rules and general working of the universe.

Like TIME : 01/01/0000

- Misogyny, racism, discrimination don't exist

- fictional president is the president of the country that I'm from (you can detail it)

And you can give as maaaany details as you like about your family, your life, or your wr.

That's pretty much it Ik it's a boring post but I enjoy talking about simple things once in a while ♡⁠˖⁠꒰⁠ᵕ⁠༚⁠ᵕ⁠⑅⁠꒱
