Push play and just trust me
This sounds like something that would be playing in a story set in Victorian London slums or something? I DON’T KNOW.

its appropriate anywhere from the wild west to a pirate ship to imperial russia a jaunty steampunk adventure to one impressive bard
ok this shit FUCKS
Damn this fucking slaps
Vitamin String Quartet do covers of pop songs with classical string arrangements. Some of them are really close to the original, like:
- Take Me To Church: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLs_-SXZGqE
- Bohemian Rhapsody: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjD80dBPelI
- Wonderwall: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvHkxAb3tNY
But others are just far enough away that they sound like classical music for a minute:
- Pompeii: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIcDIZGlr9U
- this oddly sad cover of Despacito: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAi-F1Io7gc
- Alejandro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6kkHp_Qj-U

I’m renaming the subtitle
(“Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald” could more accurately be described as “Fantastic Beasts: The Troubles that Happened Before Cell Phones”. Because otherwise it might have gone like this...)
***
Tina (in NY): Newt, Spellbound says you and Leta are engaged.
Newt (in London): Mainstream media is full of shit. Theseus is marrying Leta.
Tina: Good to know. Just checking. This long-distance thing sucks.
Newt: It definitely sucks. Can we FaceTime soon? I want to see you with the force of a thousand suns, but the government won’t let me leave the country.
Tina: Government is full of shit. Why am I working for these idiots?
Newt: Let’s go rogue.
Tina: If rogue has anything to do with sexting with you, then I’m in.
Newt: Oh, Merlin. Can we please do that right now?
Tina: Give me a few minutes to change into something more... comfortable.
***
Tina (in NY): Achilles, I apologize for having to cancel our date. It turns out I’m still otherwise committed.
Achilles: *Block caller*
***
Queenie (in London): Tina... Jacob and I just had a fight. I enchanted him then said he was a coward, and now he thinks I’m crazy.
Tina (in Paris): Really, Queenie? A COWARD? Jacob fought in WWI, stayed there longer than anybody else, survived, smacked Newt in the head to avoid obliviation, took on an Erumpent, kicked down the door to Graves’ office, punched Gnarlak, and subconsciously defied the diluted venom of Swooping Evil in order to not forget you.
Queenie: He’s right. I’m crazy. What’s that number of the therapist who lives in our building? I need to talk to him.
Tina: I’ll text it to you now.
***
Newt (in London): Credence, GPS on your phone says you’re in Paris by the Eiffel Tower.
Credence: Why do you care?
Newt: Because I’ve done some research, and I think I can help you.
Credence: Can you tell me who I am?
Newt: Have you asked Siri or Alexa?
Credence: No.
Newt: Well, they spy on everyone so that’s your best option.
***
Yusuf (in Paris): Leta, I know it’s been a long time. I’m sorry for not keeping in touch. I don’t suppose there’s any chance you know the whereabouts of your brother Corvus?
Leta (also in Paris): No worries. Nobody keeps in touch with me. Corvus is at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean because I’m a wicked monster who fucked up.
Yusuf: It sounds like you need a hug, little sister. I’ll be right there.
***
Dumbledore (at Hogwarts): Did Grindelwald call that rally I mentioned?
Theseus (inside the rally): Yes, it’s a trap. I should have trusted you.
Dumbledore: You’re a daft prick! Fortunately Grindelwald has a weakness for daft pricks. I learned this early in life. If you need to distract him, just flirt a little.

I watch the same movie again and again
...each time hoping that THIS time my ship will kiss. I holler at the screen, “Kiss him!!” And each time it’s all salamanders and the sweetest bit of eye fucking that could ever be.
And, truly, I can’t complain about that. Because it’s just so damn perfect.
Truer words were never written...
EYE FUCKING. 👌

I feel like when you’re writing, organizing chapters and dialogue is easy
but jfc, the amount of time it takes to constantly keep people moving and make sure they’re in the right spaces and trying to come up with wording for it is always such a shock.
Like, fuck, I made you pick up a coffee cup, you need to put it down at some point. also I can’t remember what I dressed you in, can you push up your sleeves? I don’t remember if you even have your shirt on.
and YOU. YOU OVER THERE, you got out of your chair earlier, but did you come back yet? Are you coming back? Where did you even go and why’d you get up? Fuck, I can’t make you sit down again already, you just stood up, go…over there. go get more coffee. Did you bring your mug with you? fine. bring the pot to the table and—wait, wasn’t the coffee pot already over here? shit, hold on, I need to go back and re-read and re-write
snapdreygon
this is the most relevant thing i have ever read.
I think one of the most wild things as a writer is the sensation that you’re not actually directing your characters– they’re sort of directing themselves, and you’re scrambling around attempting to copy down whatever it was that they just did, but they don’t wait for you to finish copying. They just keep walking and talking and moving around and existing of their own volition and at some point you look up and you’re like “WHOA OKAY EVERYBODY BACK THE FUCK UP WHERE ARE WE”
It’s kind of like trying to write sheet music for an orchestra while it’s playing
I improved SO MUCH!!!
Stopped drawing for over a decade.
Started again in Jan 2019.
Streamed some sketches last night and compared Jan 2019 to Jan 2020.
I LEVELED UP, Y'ALL!!!
