I Really Sat Here Thinking For A Whole Hour About An Au/scenario Where Danny Saves Dash Or Something

“Something in Common.”

Some more exploration on Stevens recovery. I always thought Steven could have used more friends his age, and Peedee was always such a high contender in my opinion. He really stuck with me after Frybo aired. His more extreme character traits being cynicism and prone to hysterics is such a good foil for optimistic Steven, although those may or may not have mellowed out by SUF. I noticed a little something about the Fry family, and thought it would be fun to give Peedee some backstory that Steven could empathize with.

In SU classic, there were a few scenes that implied Steven and Peedee still hung out, but like, off screen, and he was always really busy with work. They probably only grew more distant once Little Homeschool kicked up, so I wanted to circle back and have them catch up– something Steven would have absolutely done during his recovery.

Making your angst hurt: the power of lighthearted scenes. 

I’m incredibly disappointed with the trend in stories (especially ‘edgy’ YA novels) to bombard the reader with traumatic situations, angry characters, and relationship drama without ever first giving them a reason to root for a better future. As a reader…

I might care that the main siblings are fighting if they had first been shown to have at least one happy, healthy conversation. 

I might cry and rage with the protagonist if I knew they actually had the capacity to laugh and smile and be happy.

I might be hit by heavy and dark situations if there was some notion that it was possible for this world to have light and hope and joy to begin with.

Writers seem to forget that their reader’s eyes adjust to the dark. If you want to give your reader a truly bleak situation in a continually dim setting, you have to put them in pitch blackness. But if you just shine a light first, the sudden change makes the contrast appear substantial.

Show your readers what light means to your character before taking it away. Let the reader bond with the characters in their happy moments before (and in between) tearing them apart. Give readers a future to root for by putting sparks of that future into the past and the present. Make your character’s tears and anger mean something.

Not only will this give your dark and emotional scenes more impact, but it says something that we as humans desperately, desperately need to hear. 

Books with light amidst the darkness tell us that while things are hard and hurt, that we’re still allowed to breathe and hope and live and even laugh within the darkness.

We as humans need to hear this more often, because acting it out is the only way we stop from suffocating long enough to make a difference.

So write angst, and darkness, and gritty, painful stories, full of treacherous morally grey characters if you want to. But don’t forget to turn the light on occasionally.

And now, I need to know is this real love Or is it just madness keeping us afloat?

Everything is okay now.

There are some things that Zim has cannot accept just yet, and the both of them haven’t talked about everything, including what they’re hiding either, but they’ll be alright eventually.

Dead Friend AU

Where Danny dies and to cope Sam and Tucker make an ongoing story of if he turned half ghost instead while also trying to overcome the grief and trauma

Each ‘episode’ is based on a real event and how if Danny were still there he would fix it (jhonny 13 is just a jerky guy jazz dates, vlad is a friend of the fenton family trying to help them move on from Danny’s death, the box ghost is just a silly idea Tucker had at three in the morning and it was the first time since the accident he and Sam laughed that hard).

Phantom planet happens when Tucker and Sam know they need to move on, even though they still resist it (as seen in how they are angry with Danny in the episode) but decide to give Danny the best cheesiest sappiest ending they can think of.

I will say, I’ve definitely simplified the process of the voice. It was too complicated and overshadowed the performance, so I simplified it and now it sounds like how it does today!

Oh my gosh, it’s amazing?!

I luv tis game
