Ad Insaniam/Weltschmerz

i can feel the rot blooming under my skin elder veins failing to keep my passion safe ever younger skin bubbling with decay my blood falls asleep we were never meant to be new children in old bassinets old things bathed in ever changing rivers my breath stills in my lungs and it tears my skin apart the world spins infinitely in a fatal spiral it floods my mouth like bile there is no soul left to scream no mind left to subside the rot is all, and all is rotten.

I LOVE characters who are pieces of shit, actually. Unlikeability is interesting and arguably grants a much bigger range of emotions than perfect characters do. It leaves a lot of room for discussion.

I just HATE it when these characters are pieces of shit, BUT THEY AREN’T SUPPOSED TO BE. As in, there is no acknowledgment that they’ve done wrong at all. In fact, the story treats them like they’ve done nothing wrong and that they’re so lovable. Gaslighting the audience into thinking they’re the best in the world.

The difference is the latter is manipulative and nobody likes being manipulated. The former meanwhile is unapologetic authenticity that allows people to make their own opinions.

What kind of predator characters are there...

Following slowly behind its prey, big smile plastered on their face as the other runs away in despair, they know something you don't. Gives a head start deliberately for the adrenaline of sprinting after their prey, laughing and puffing as the distance closes in. Quietly following their prey around, waiting for the perfect moment to pounce. The prey doesn't even know that they are in said situation. Two-faced character switching from ally to enemy in a millisecond, maybe they orchestrated the whole situation from the beginning even.

[theunfortunate-author]

my daily affirmation as an author

[writing-is-tough]

shitpost because my ocs are rotting my brain: what flavour of evil are YOUR ocs?

Are they evil just for giggles? Hurts for their own pleasure and doesn't care for consequences, may not learn a lesson until they're an inch away from death, or may not learn at all. Are they evil for a purpose? Has a goal and yk "the end justifies the means" and all that jazz, cannot/will not see the monster they are becoming. Are they evil out of ignorance? They're not being mean evil, they're just being honest. Might break your bones to get their point across. Are they being evil out of love? Similar to "evil for a purpose", but the love they have for this object becomes obsession and addiction to seeing it being fulfilled. Are they evil but look just soo innocent? They could never be evil! They are gullible even! How could a little guy like that be evil? Quietly scheming behind the scenes since everyone just trusts them so easily. Are they evil for being possessed? It is their body, their hands, their voice, but it is not them. Are they evil in the name of God? Their Bible filled with notes, their prayers oh-so-pure, their actions so filthy. Are they made to be evil? Formed and scalped into a walking weapon without remorse, or so broken they cannot help but become an abuser themselves. Are they a creature? A mistake of nature, not even human anymore. There is no point in considering it or giving it a human name. Are they an evil narrator? Twisting words and descriptions into their own little story to tell. Are they an evil God? Their own creations disgust them and they cannot help but make them suffer. Are they an evil soldier? Just "following orders" to turn life into mindless pulp under their boots. Are they evil?
