happy birthday, @yibo-wang! please enjoy barbie from your shows <3
there are many, many funny things about kingdom hearts, but for me the funniest part is in any scene where there’s supposed to be a big crowd but the devs didn’t want to model literally anyone so it’s just a huge empty room with only the absolutely necessary characters there
literally fucking no one is there. comedy gold
#i hc that neither of them can tie shoess#obi-wan was supposed to teach anakin#but he couldnt fess up to not knowing at that point#so he just bought anakin a pair of boots like his#and anakin was in his hero worship of master obi-wan phase (part 1)#so he was ecstatic to be wearing shoes like his master#and never realized he didnt know how to tie shoes until ahsoka needed to learn#thankfully he was less prideful than obi-wan and also he could outsource to rex at that point#and hover in the background under the guise of supervising#until he could also do two bunny loop tie#and then eventually he shows obi-wan#just thinking of 2 fiersome war generals sitting shoulder to shoulder on a battlefield#tongues sticking out as they practice two bunnies over and under
in theory vs. in practice
HAYDEN CHRISTENSEN as ANAKIN SKYWALKER — STAR WARS EPISODE III - REVENGE OF THE SITH
We need to fricking stop with this CinemaSins TVTropes style crap in fandom. Actually, we need to stop that attitude in all creative fields, but I'm talking about fic right now.
I have seen many posts ragging on over-used phrases in fanfic, and yes, I find 'cerulean orbs' deeply strange, but if I ever said anything hateful on the topic I wish I hadn't.
You know why we say 'smirk' a lot in fic? cause its faster than 'gave a tiny smile to one side with their lips closed, a little cocky and provocative' Smirk is an easy way of saying it. It's the correct word. We say it in fic a lot because people smirk a lot in real life. Go people watch, its all over. Also. Bring me a true synonym for smirk, and I'll use that instead, but these ain't it.
If you have a better way of saying 'took off his shoes without untying them, just levered the heel with the toe of the other' that isn't saying 'he toed off his shoes' I'd love to hear it. Cause that phrase is perfect for it.
'Huffed a laugh'? Yeah, they did. Cause I'm not going to spend extra words describing how they 'exhaled through their nose once, amused, but not enough to fully laugh aloud' Its a specific action. You think people don't do that all day? five bucks says its exactly what you do when you see a meme most of the time. You didn't lol. You huffed a laugh.
The idea that something that's been used before is inherently less valuable is ridiculous. Same with the inverse.
If the phrase you want to use is common or widely used, but is the best way to communicate it? Use it. Don't fall for this trap that is currently consuming hollywood. You don't have to have a clever twist just because 'they survived and were happy' is a trope. You don't have to use some insane alternate phrase just because someone thinks fandom uses 'smirk' too much.
And, as always, if someone gives you hell and you don't want to fight them? let me know, cause I volunteer.
I want to say this clearly since people are reblogging this.
TvTropes - hella useful resource, love to see it; has somehow been interpreted by others as 'if you use any Tropes you are Bad.'
Cinema Sins - not my thing, but whatever; has prompted a standard of 'if you aren't insulting the content, you aren't doing it right'
