What If Nobody Came #the idiot #dostoevsky #my writing #also i have only proofread it once so im sorry if there are mistakes T___T i never really edit i just write everything in one go and post i #which may explain a lot. no wonder i love dostoevsky so much

look. if i was at home i’d do a web weave. that’s what i do under these conditions. maybe i still will do one when i do get home. but that is over a week away. so instead, i am simply posting: ever since i read about ippolit and the wall outside his window, i have had in my head bartleby the scrivener. particularly “can you not see for yourself what the problem is” and “i know where i am”. do you understand. do you see it.

— Akira Kurosawa

“Dostoevsky wanted to portray a genuinely good man. Ironically he chose an idiot for his hero. But a truly good man may seem like an idiot to others. This is the tragic story of the ruin of a pure and simple man.”

i managed to get my paws on the script of subject to fits (thank you so much @last-of-the-independents for bringing it to my attention :D!!!) so here is a non-exhaustive compilation of parts which blew all my limbs clean off

#AGH.UAGH #the idiot #dostoevsky #ghost post #i dont have the brain to elucidate all my thoughts yet (sleepie) but i needed to put these into the world to let everyone else experience #them also #you must relive all of prometheus's life in the next ten seconds. egad #yams are you there yams look i need you to see these. The rogomysh #ALSO LIZAVETA PROKOFYEVNA AUTISM FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#and i guess subsequently aglaya autism by association. awesome #anyway i made a scan of the full script (which is why it's so wonky because i had to use my phone sitting on my bed trying to hold the page #open without getting my thumb in the way whilst listening to alice's restaurant) so if anyone wants it let me know and ill send it over :D #im too nervous to post it publicly since you are probably not supposed to do that otherwise i would have just left a link. im sorry ;__;#anyway (part 2) my feelings on the whole are complicated not least because it's very difficult to judge how dialogue would come across in #a performance when you are just reading the script but regardless it gave me so many things to think about and i would love to hear what #other people thought :D :D :D the new idiot finds are coming thick and fast at the moment im too excited to process everything properly #AND the new katz translation (my copy of which just arrived today)!!!!!!!!! what a wonderful world!!!!!!!!!!!!!#also im just back from camping so sorry to the people whose messages and asks i havent responded to yet i will do it soon i promise. kiss
