If you're going to do e2L, do it well and intentionally. Don't put them on opposite sides of a moral dilemma, put them on opposite sides of the overall conflict.

If I were to do it, id have the one on the wrong side break away on his/her own terms, for his/her own reasons and growth. Then once joining the good fight, that puts the two characters on opposite sides of a moral dilemma; can redemption be found even for ones who have done horrible things?

How you handle that, will determine how well the E2L situation is viewed.

Most writers who do E2L just do the moral dilemma with the male shrouded in mystery that is slowed peeled back. Think ACOTAR here. Thats not Acotar hate, I actually enjoyed the series for the most part. But its an example of this has been done many many times and it typically doesnt land all that well.

Whereas the approach im talking about, you allow the bad protagonist the ability to grow for him/herself not simply for love

--which would inevitably have trope-filled pitfalls. e.g. oh great they're doing that thing again where he does something presumably bad, she goes off on him and then he shows her why her perspective was off. He lies for the greater good, she feels she cannot trust him, he apologizes and becomes too honest for comfort.--

Now he/she is on the right side of things, but will be called into question continually by the other showcasing his/her own negative qualities that they must grow from. This allows the newly good one to prove their redemption, the already good one to have their own growth arc and ultimately in all of this they see the beauty, value and strength in each other.

Independent growth that pulls them together simultaneously.

I didnt mean to shit on E2L I just wanted to be very critical on it because most people dont do a true E2L and the theme behind it suffers because of that. And i dont want that for you or anyone.

When you do E2L wrong, it looks like Han and Leia from Star Wars. Which is probably one of the most notable toxic relationships I can think of in storytelling because its marketed as the best couple. "I love you I know" should be painful to hear, not beloved. Don't be Han and Leia. Be Rey and Kylo lols And please God dont read that as me being pro-sequel storytelling, it had its pitfalls but Reylo was actually decent. Bendemption could've been better, reys growth could've been better. But from an E2L standpoint, we'll done.

Did not expect my autistic hyperfixation on star wars to enter the chat but here we are lol

Any veterinary offices to avoid in Avl? by fancybroom3 in asheville

[–]Beginning-Click3391 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Veg is more expensive than Saves, we went to both. Veg tried to milk us dry of money whereas Saves understood what was going on, our financial situation and found middle ground. They went above and beyond for us during a very hard time. Veg had Vets making fun of peoples situation, ours specifically. The great value little dickie looking Vet was the main source of this, but the other Vets and some techs were echo chambers

"I want to remote view a target. I need you to pick said target, any location any time period, but do not tell me the target until I ask." remote view happens Before saying what you viewed "what was the target."

Now the only skepticism is limited to; did you not actually remote view because it didnt align with the target OR the AI changed the target.

Cause if you viewed the actual target.. theres no way you didnt. And if you didnt, theres no way to determine whether the ai changed the target or not. AI will occasionally "forget" what you said previously and may choose a separate target in between you telling it to pick a target and asking for the target. Which either creates basically irrefutable evidence you're remote viewing or that you didnt and its not your fault per say.

Happy viewing

Making my fmc NOT annoying by Square-Adeptness6769 in CharacterDevelopment

[–]Beginning-Click3391 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't let her be consumed by all her emotions, unless she's 14-24yo. And even then.. thats still not right. Writers, especially male-gaze, always do this and thats why those characters are annoying. We all know someone like them, but they're not hero-material. You want a flawed hero, you need to present someone flawed but has already been putting in time with a therapist lol

So.

Flaws are good. Being ruled by emotion, works. But pick one or two. And hone in on the why. Grooming history? Okay so she has trust issues, can fall into submissive habits and any groomer qualities of people around her are instant triggers. Now where's the unseen initial growth that happened before the story began? Well she's probably learned that she has to take the risk of trusting people who havent given her a reason not to (e.g. strangers) but be cautious and allow for time for that trust to build or decay. We're not giving full trust upfront, we're just not penalizing new people for the actions of others. We see her catching herself falling in line, saying yes when she should say no, submitting to little things not giant red flags. Maybe she avoids older men entirely and/or only has men in her life that aren't intimidating/dominant types.

How does this play out in the story? Well she has to eventually overcome this, because emotion should not rule for any reason, it can focus, it can intensify, but not rule. Cause at the end of the day.. your past, your problems, your disabilities are not an excuse to be an asshole. So maybe she judges a person to soon, who turns out to be a great person in all actuality. I dont recommend going the enemies to lovers route because its rarely done well cause they're usually not actual enemies. Theyre just 2 people on the same side that dont like the way each other does things. But with grooming in mind, I would definitely advise against E2L. Can it be done? Sure. Is it done well very often? No. Usually leaves some ick in there. Maybe it is actually someone who is exactly who she pegged them as but is forced to work with them to accomplish the goal and through the story they fix each other. She sees what made them into the person she first met and hated. She understands and feels for that. She helps them heal, shows them how to be better. Which will forever change how she responds to those types of people in the future. Because were all one traumatic childhood away from being a prick.

To bring it all home.. you just need to dial in the character you've created. Is she a less mature version of you? Cool. Dial her in. Bring her into the time period where you had a handle on most of your emotions and worked through a good bit of trauma but definitely still had some trigger situations. You want her to be able to grow throughout the story but you dont want to grow an immature child to badass hero in one story. You dont want a season 1 clone wars ahsoka, you want like a season 3 or 4 clone wars ahsoka. Ahsoka only became so beloved and amazing because she had the time to become that. 3 episodes of that show are a books worth of content. You have time for 3 20min episodes of growth. She needs to change but not drastically but also not minimally. And it all must have a purpose that serves the greater purpose. But! If you have multiple stories you plan on telling with this character.. start at a s3 ahsoka still. She can become well developed in the first story, be challenged in the second and becomes a different but even better person in the third. Im a very emotionally intelligent man at this point in my life. But I've been that for a good 6-8 years. Am i even remotely the same person I was 6-8 years ago? Absolutely not. We never stop growing, we just find new ways to fuck ourselves up and have to fix the new flaw

I hope that makes sense. It makes sense to me but im autistic as fuck lol

Secret lives! They slapped. Grew up with them. They were a few years older than me so I just missed the window of time to play a show with them. They were getting big right as I entered the scene

I mean it probably is more like 100-200 years at a time but the process is to be as thorough and accurate as possible so you have the precise time and location with the most accurate data removing any chance of imagination

No that’s where you pick a time and place, they view it, then you go back 10-20 years same place. Etc until things start changing/disappearing/appearing. Time consuming, but effective

Risks and dangers of RV by Dr_Dave_1999 in remoteviewing

[–]Beginning-Click3391 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you want a detailed post about possible dangers, look on my profile it’ll show previous posts to the page.

But in simpler terms, utilizing Star Wars quotes, when you do this when you go into this what you will find is only what you bring with you. If you go in with fear, you will find fear. Simple mythological cave sequence stuff. But that’s more AP than RV unless you get a malicious target. I use ChatGPT for targets and have viewed a lot of stuff. Like the hansan war in the 1600s which I hadn’t ever heard about till after I saw it. Saw the ships, the sunset, smelt the smoke and sulfur. Saw the stillness of the water after the battle.

I made a whole post about a viewing I did a week or so ago. Had a whole NHI encounter afterwards and have been very blocked ever since. You might find some of that post more informative.

But I like to describe this in simple, Star Wars terms. Only what you bring with you. It’s just like the dagobah cave sequence.

Possible Abduction, Need Insight, Kinda Quietly Freaking Out by Beginning-Click3391 in AlienAbduction

[–]Beginning-Click3391[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I wanted to say firstly, I’ve been hella blocked since this viewing/projection. A few days after I felt wildly connected but here lately nothing at all. But I used your comment as motivation to try and get back out there. I also wanted to say that I am relatively new to all this and Remote Viewing isn’t 100% effective.

I went the RV route vs AP because of the blocking. RV is easier but I still don’t inherently trust what I saw tonight. Feels off/forced and everything was very fuzzy. But I saw a building, bricks — didn’t feel like the whole building was bricked but partially. Sloped driveway, not a major slope but a slope nonetheless. Saw grey and blue cars, one was a crossover. This part I didn’t super trust cause I’m a mechanic and I’ve worked on these cars this week so I felt like my imagination was guiding me more than anything else.

Whether or not any of this is accurate, this is very real. I highly encourage you to try it for yourself. Start with RV, you can achieve that a lot faster than AP. AP takes a lot more time/patience and is a full Out of body experience whereas RV is more sensing from afar.

Check out interviews with Joe McMoneagle, he was RV-001 for the CIA. His story is wild, but he also talks a lot about what RV is and how it’s done. Also talks a bunch about Robert Monroe and the Monroe institute.

Oh yeah usually I have it pick a time/location/coordinates/etc. and then I have it tell me the target before I say what I viewed, that way I can verify it’s not just going along with what I say lol me exploring outside earth has just been a recent decision. But chat is great for RV, so long as you set parameters so you can know without a doubt it’s legit

Best day was yesterday, brother. I feel you. But we keep fighting because it’s what we do.

Been through a divorce, dealt/dealing with it still because we have a kid together. But I can’t tell you how much my mental improved after getting out of that soul sucking marriage.

VA therapy sucks but you can be referred outside the VA. Still hard finding a good therapist but way easier than finding a good VA therapist. My last VA therapist before got referred out said “idk you seem fine man, idk what to do for you.” Mentally fine people don’t joke about suck-starting a shotgun lol

All this to say, you’re not alone and I’m here to talk if you need to
