Can't Stop Me Now.

Remember that even good changes can make us feel depressed, because, as creatures of habit, we're resistant to change. That doesn't mean that it wasn't the right choice.

If there’s an iced tea in that bag… it could be love.

some of you are a little too pretty to be on tumblr i think you should be luring people to their watery demise instead

ah i found it! i saw someone post this before, but couldn’t remember where. good thing the terror twitter account doesn’t post much so i didnt have to scroll too far down.

pictured are the traits that the writers tried to flesh out for each of their characters. IF YOUR WRITERS’ ROOM ISNT AS HARDWORKING AND OBSESSIVE AS THE TERROR WRITERS THEN WHAT ARE WE HERE FOR REALLY???

these would also be useful in RPing: intelligence of humor, tenor of humor, critical thinking, openness to experience, sociability with others, communication style, default moral code, spiritual identification, positioning of social interactions, positioning of self in self-identity, emotional maturity, work ethic, work style, relationship to authority, relationship to zeitgeist, response to stress, response to fear, speed of responses, level of impulsivity control, moment step from high adv. to horror 

you’ll notice that in that last trait, “moment that they step from high adventure to horror” is something that kajganich specifically mentions in an interview: “We were interested to know, in the writers’ room, at what moment each character stepped from a high adventure story into a horror story, and that’s obviously different for every character.”

sometimes i think about how palpatine’s office was decorated with:

and none of the jedi that were frequently inside of his office ever stopped, scratched their chin, and said ‘mmmmm that’s kinda suspicious, palps’

like his entire office was pretty much ‘sith themed’ and nobody blinked an eye i’m crying-

“oh, ok, carry on then, chancellor” - the entire jedi order who somehow didn’t think this was slightly suspicious until it was too late

me doing normal human activities: is this allowed? is this allowed? am i allowed to do this? is this allowed? i don’t want to get in trouble can i do this is this allowed?

if you ever feel bad about your writing, especially structure-wise, remember: you’re still not the one who put “somehow, palpatine has returned” into a multimillion dollar franchise produced by one of the greediest and richest corporations on earth. you’ll always be better than that one.
