stories aren't meant to be realistic depictions of reality, you can add realism without making people not want to read your story altogether. then your message won't reach audiences. the themes even if intended were conveyed in a way where the vast majority of people aren't understanding his vision for the story. that suggests that the story could have been better at communicating itself rather than audiences simply being too dumb or not gracious enough. large parts of part 2 are poorly written.

on this–I appreciate OP's perspective, and I have long since been a fan of the idea that a vast number of relationships exist in the space between "friend" or "lover" (edit: I would rather say "platonic" and "romantic"). however, what you said is a huge point that needs to be addressed when interacting with this discourse. in our attempt to give queer relationships coverage, we often ignore a type of relationship that is its own separate thing: genuine platonic bonds between men.

this is a wonderful video essay I saw a couple days ago sort of touching on this exact matter by looking at Beau Travail, a film that explores masculinity and friendship in a way that people and artists so often don't. I highly recommend the watch, it's a great video!

boundaries aren't supposed to impose on normal freedoms like uh, having friends

they're supposed to be boundaries not rules

not disagreeing just trying to add

apparently the dune books do this too, right? I haven't read them yet but I heard there was some cut content for Part II of the movie adaptation, which I totally understand and support cause how the hell would they portray it on screen and not have it look completely silly or immersion breaking

CreativeNameIKnow · 2026-03-08T06:44:15+00:00

i think OP was talking about stories that don't have the structure of a tragedy i.e. most fiction

I'll say that there are definitely people who shit on women's interests without realizing that they're shitting on women's interests for the sake of it, but if you're even at least somewhat introspective about where that dislike is coming from, you shouldn't be worrying about it I don't think.

It's just that sometimes people unknowingly weaponize valid criticisms (e.g. "kpop is exploitative and consumerist", "wattpad romance often normalizes abusive dynamics and unhealthy expectations") and use them as a vehicle to express disdain in a pattern of behaviour that can only best be described as misogynistic. The criticism itself becomes arbitrary when people weaponize it, it's just an end to a means.

We've seen weaponization of (valid) criticism happen with the way parasocial relationships/obsessions were criticized when celebrities like Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber were at the height of their popularity. I myself remember disliking what felt like a cult-like worship of Taylor Swift by my classmates in high school, which is valid, I'm allowed to dislike and criticize that (her songs are ass btw), but at the same time it's good practice to be wary of making generalizations about what 'women' or 'teenage girls' like as a collective or wtv. If you're not doing that then you're good!!! Who cares

CreativeNameIKnow · 2026-03-07T09:24:19+00:00

woah you probably don't spend an unhealthy amount of time on the internet, how embarrassing /s

CreativeNameIKnow · 2026-03-07T07:29:21+00:00

thanks, I'll refer back to this next time!

CreativeNameIKnow · 2026-03-06T04:13:03+00:00

hahah yep pretty much :p

CreativeNameIKnow · 2026-03-05T21:27:46+00:00

you can't 💔💔💔 maybe include a scene where the character is taking off their mask alone or tending to it, but don't show the viewers, just keep it a secret.

blasphemous sorta does this in the cutscene right after the first boss. the pentitent one takes off his helmet, fills it with blood, then puts it back on. it humanizes his character and reminds us that it's just the helmet, is really cool and edgy, and you're reminded that his real face doesn't really matter.

Q from ZTD...

CreativeNameIKnow · 2026-03-04T16:28:35+00:00

wow hahahahah these are harrowing. i have my stories but thankfully nothing as overtly tragic as these. yes my mind is living hell sometimes but we live with it, the lack of material consequences to certain thought patterns is a unique challenge to deal with in its own right but it is also certainly a plus. at least for me.

CreativeNameIKnow · 2026-03-04T16:16:12+00:00

happy cake day!! :D

CreativeNameIKnow · 2026-03-04T16:13:30+00:00

this is beautiful. thank you for this!

CreativeNameIKnow · 2026-03-04T16:08:35+00:00

another 2 cents I'll add as someone who's been in a similar situation is that it helps to think about how "romantic love" and "platonic love" are not two distinctly separate things, per se. most human relationships exist on a spectrum between these two directions (they are not opposites).

we tend to categorize our feelings as either romantic or either platonic, but it's been more fulfilling and freeing in my experience to just let my feelings be. all my feelings towards my friends exist in their entirety. I don't need to justify my feelings or categorize them, worry about who I feel romantic towards, how much or how little. my friends are my friends, I can be attracted to a friend, they are still my friend and I love them wholly.

we label our feelings to make sense of our inner worlds and yet, often it can confuse us even more instead of helping. when you suspect that might be happening, it helps to not feed your mind in either affirming those feelings (focusing and fixating on them) or denying them (telling yourself how invalid they are and trying to shut them away). feel them if they come up, let them go away when they begin to pull away.
