Some Of The Better Quotes, Monologues, And Passages I’ve Read Have Come From Fanfic. Fanfic Isn’t

Some of the better quotes, monologues, and passages I’ve read have come from fanfic. Fanfic isn’t always, or even usually, of professional quality (even if it is fun). But every once in a while, I’ll come across something that belongs in the Library of Congress. And I’m not sure how to feel about that, but I guess I’m better for having read it.

Mostly thanks to @emilyelizabethfowl (their reblog contains many of the fic links!! thank u sm) and a few deep dives into my ao3 history, the sources of the quotes have mostly all been recovered! I apologise for not posting them all with proper credit originally, I truly didn't think the post would blow up so much, but the lesson is very much learned :) enjoy!

- number 1 is another merthur fic, called Destiny Ordered You To Die, But I Willed You To Live by ironfamjam (apparently also appears in Filling the gaps, a spiderman fic by the same author!)

-The klance one (number 2) is from reach out for you (break these walls) by Paladin-Pile (UserFromPluto)

- number 3 is a batman fic called Home (jason centered) by Daisybirb

- number 4 is a zukka fic by I'm Not Angry Anymore by team_avatars_eyebags

- two are from The Art Of Burning by hella1975, an amazing ongoing atla following zuko (also zukka but it hasn't quite happened yet) - numbers 5 and 9 to be exact

- number 6 is a hualian fic called No paths are bound by cataclysmic_calamity (originally a thread fic but also fully uploaded on ao3)

- number 7 is a merthur fic called tell me every terrible thing you ever did (and let me love you anyway) by Stardustwrites17 (the quote is also originally from a poem by Sade Andria Zabala or Edgar Allen poe apparently)

- The batman one (number 8) is from Nature and Nurture by lurkinglurkerwholurks

- number 10 is from a steddie fic called let me know (everythings alright) by bexiguess (had too dig deep to find this one - the stranger things phase last summer was no joke 😭)

ALSO there is now a part 2 !! (which I swear is better organized)

It’s okay to not want to have sex ever. It’s okay to never even try it.

1 year ago

“I’m like, ‘Okay, she’s a doll. She’s a plastic doll. She doesn’t have organs. If she doesn’t have organs, she doesn’t have reproductive organs. If she doesn’t have reproductive organs, would she even feel sexual desire?’ No, I don’t think she could,” Robbie said. “She is sexualized. But she should never be sexy. People can project sex onto her. Yes, she can wear a short skirt, but because it’s fun and pink. Not because she wanted you to see her butt.”

Margot Robbie said Ace Barbie Rights with her whole chest.

A couple weeks ago, I found out that my university’s library has a copy of the original Assassins script book (1990). Tomorrow’s my last class of the year, so before I have to turn it in, I thought I’d pick some things out to share with y’all.

A Couple Weeks Ago, I Found Out That My University’s Library Has A Copy Of The Original Assassins Script

This is in the intro. Someone describing a moment in the depository scene that isn’t in the 2004 revival.

A Couple Weeks Ago, I Found Out That My University’s Library Has A Copy Of The Original Assassins Script

The character descriptions are just the descriptions of their assassination attempts.

A Couple Weeks Ago, I Found Out That My University’s Library Has A Copy Of The Original Assassins Script

Sorry, but Booth reading Variety is incredibly funny to me.

A Couple Weeks Ago, I Found Out That My University’s Library Has A Copy Of The Original Assassins Script

Just this whole bit. I love the way it’s written. Booth is trying very hard to ignore the Balladeer. The soldier getting shot is not in the revival.

A Couple Weeks Ago, I Found Out That My University’s Library Has A Copy Of The Original Assassins Script

In the 2004 revival, the Proprietor is the one who interrupts the song. In the original, Byck introduced the other national anthem. And while I can’t deny that I think the Proprietor is probably better suited to this solo, I think Byck is an interesting choice. It’s probably just a continuation of his monologue from the scene before, but still…

A Couple Weeks Ago, I Found Out That My University’s Library Has A Copy Of The Original Assassins Script

Terrifying.

A Couple Weeks Ago, I Found Out That My University’s Library Has A Copy Of The Original Assassins Script

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: By the end of the depository scene, Booth is in the Balladeer's position. He represents the new American Dream, the other national anthem. Oswald is now in Booth's previous position as the group's pioneer.

A Couple Weeks Ago, I Found Out That My University’s Library Has A Copy Of The Original Assassins Script

Hinckley admires Oswald; that’s in line with his character. Moore is the first to bring up family; she’s a mother. But Czolgosz respects Oswald. Guiteau and Booth envy him. Interesting choices for the only other successful assassins. Czolgosz I get. Guiteau I get. But Booth, envious? Interesting.

A Couple Weeks Ago, I Found Out That My University’s Library Has A Copy Of The Original Assassins Script

This one needs no explanation. But I do think it’s worth mentioning that after all the talk of family, when Oswald pulls the trigger, he’s still alone.

A Couple Weeks Ago, I Found Out That My University’s Library Has A Copy Of The Original Assassins Script

Also from the intro. Thoughts on the assassins and Sondheim’s motivations.

It’s just a really good show, y’all.

Some of the most impactful words I’ve ever heard have come from the most unlikely places. These are only a few. Occasionally the chaos and calamity of our mindless world settles into gold, but only when we take the time to sift through the ashes.

i love you, media that turn into psychological deep dive about life, death, love, grief and mental health, i love you, "mortality is what makes life meaningful", i love you, choosing love no matter how cruel the world gets, i love you, finding kindness within yourself even when the world feels unearning of it, i love you, embracing grief because it means what's lost meant something, but still learning to move on, i love you, moving forward even after everything is lost and the worst possible scenario happened, i love you, absurdism,
