KICK THE CAN!

Let’s play the biggest game of kick the can on the internet.

To kick the can, reblog it. I wanna see how long this can go on for.

[visibun]

the oldest reblogs for this post that i can find are from january 2nd of 2013. this can has been getting kicked around tumblr for almost 13½ years now

[drtanner]

And yet somehow this is my first time kicking it!

Ref Recs for Whump Writers

Violence: A Writer’s Guide:  This is not about writing technique. It is an introduction to the world of violence. To the parts that people don’t understand. The parts that books and movies get wrong. Not just the mechanics, but how people who live in a violent world think and feel about what they do and what they see done.

Hurting Your Characters: HURTING YOUR CHARACTERS discusses the immediate effect of trauma on the body, its physiologic response, including the types of nerve fibers and the sensations they convey, and how injuries feel to the character. This book also presents a simplified overview of the expected recovery times for the injuries discussed in young, otherwise healthy individuals.

Body Trauma: A writer’s guide to wounds and injuries. Body Trauma explains what happens to body organs and bones maimed by accident or intent and the small window of opportunity for emergency treatment. Research what happens in a hospital operating room and the personnel who initiate treatment. Use these facts to bring added realism to your stories and novels.

10 B.S. Medical Tropes that Need to Die TODAY…and What to Do Instead: Written by a paramedic and writer with a decade of experience, 10 BS Medical Tropes covers exactly that: clichéd and inaccurate tropes that not only ruin books, they have the potential to hurt real people in the real world. 

Maim Your Characters: How Injuries Work in Fiction: Increase Realism. Raise the Stakes. Tell Better Stories. Maim Your Characters is the definitive guide to using wounds and injuries to their greatest effect in your story. Learn not only the six critical parts of an injury plot, but more importantly, how to make sure that the injury you’re inflicting matters. 

Blood on the Page: This handy resource is a must-have guide for writers whose characters live on the edge of danger. If you like easy-to-follow tools, expert opinions from someone with firsthand knowledge, and you don’t mind a bit of fictional bodily harm, then you’ll love Samantha Keel’s invaluable handbook

sometimes I remember that jmart is actually 100% canon and I get a sudden rush of joy and gratitude for the writer(s) at rq.

and not just implied canon either. not just an ambiguous confession that could be twisted to be platonic. not just subtext. not just a relationship confirmed by the creators after the fact. they are 100% undeniably canon.

they refer to each other as boyfriends. they talk openly with other characters about the fact that they're dating. they have an audible kiss. they say I love you in a way that is undeniably romantic. they openly flirt with each other.

and like. yeah canon is made up and whatever we want it to be yadda yadda. but like,, canon queer relationships, especially quality written queer relationships, are just,, RIDICULOUSLY hard to come by for some reason and jmart's relationship is so refreshing to me, especially because you can tell the writers actually care about it

and they're not the only ones! there's a canon lesbian couple! there are canon trans characters! there are literal statements with themes of transness and queerness and how that impacts people's experiences! there are explicitly queer background characters/relationships! jon is canonically asexual! (and jon's asexuality could be a whole other post for me—it feels so monumental as an asexual person to see somebody who is both canonically asexual and still has genuine romantic relationships)

no matter what your opinion on jmart is, I think it's pretty hard to deny that they're so important on the representation side of things. as a queer person it's incredibly comforting to have a fandom where I feel 100% safe and accepted by not just the queer side of the fandom but the creators as well <3 thank u rusty quill for all you do

thinking about how the voices would describe each other and now i really wanna make an animatic

[tanblaque]

[headcanonsfromthecabin]

I think Hunted and Contrarian would occasionally run into the woods together for very different reasons. Contrarian just wants to do something fun, Hunted is going off Animal Instinct To Run In The Woods. Both come back hours later covered in twigs and leaves and to a very concerned flock

yesssssss I love that <3333 big red stamp of approval!

Voice of the Hero is so cute and if you disagree with me you’re getting stabby stabbed.

(Tw: suicide mention in the examples under the cut)

Examples (from Drowned Grey route bc that’s the one I’m doing rn):

(The narrator) "Then why, pray tell, are you here?"

(Voice of the hero) "Oh, I know that one! :D

We killed ourself."

(The narrator) "Why?!"

And

(Voice of the Cold) "there are so many more threads to pull once you stop feeling."

(Voice of the Hero) "that's a little dark, buddy. Are you feeling okay?"

And

(Voice of the hero) “Oh come on! Tell us your secrets. Haven’t we been through enough? Don’t we deserve to know? OvO”

(The narrator) “no.”

I will update this if I find more, which I probably will.
