The way I’ve thought about this since I first listened, bc city ppl don’t understand how dark it is without streetlights + I’ve had to explain this on multiple occasions

Being in a fandom for 20+ years is weird because you’ll see posts like, “How come I never see people mention x” and it’s like. We did. We talked about that a lot, actually. Actually it’s something that came up. And it’s hard not to be like, “Yeah, we discussed this fifteen years ago.” Half of this fandom wasn’t even born when these discussions happened. Wild.

it’s amazing the entire dashboard is just old things. shakespeare. arthuriana. gargantua. the epic of gilgamesh. the brothers karamazov. beowulf. wuthering heights. medieval mystics. dracula novel discourse. lawrence of arabia 1962. al pacino. die girlies auf tumblr are thriving and having a ball going about as if media stopped happening post 2010

They say you die three times, first when the body dies, second, when your body enters the grave, and third, when your name is spoken for the last time. You were a normal person in life, but hundreds of years later, you still haven’t had your “third” death. You decide to find out why.
You sold some shitty copper, man, I don’t know what to tell you
It’s Not a Plot Hole, It’s Foreshadowing

It’s Not a Plot Hole, It’s Just Something That They Opted Not to Spoon-feed You Because It Would Be Obvious If You Thought About It For 20 Seconds

It May Be a Plot Hole, But It Still Works In Terms of the Story’s Themes and Character Logic
vs.
Okay, It Is a Plot Hole, What Are You Going to Do, Cry about It?
vs.
All Works of Fiction Represent Constructed Realities and by Demanding a Lack of Plot Holes, You Are Improperly Importing the Rules of Objective Reality into a Subjective Creation that Must Be Judged Primarily on Its Aesthetic Merits

Dude, Just Come-up With a Headcanon Like A Normal Human Being

Is It Really a Plot Hole, or Are the Characters Just Not Making the Choices You Want Them To?
There is a crack in everything, that’s how the fanfic gets in

Leave a little space

They’re not plotholes. It’s a dress and it has pockets, and we keep our AUs in the pockets :)
Botw is such an interesting take on post apocalypse, because it isn’t really dystopian. It is a wound healed over, a world that has forgotten the end of itself, and in that, has begun anew. Grandparents whisper their nightmares into the wind, and smile at their kin. The garrisons that remain are sodden ashes in the dirt, a burial ground, and the most fertile soil for miles. You do not know the past that your body remembers. You do not know the voices that linger, and yet you follow. You follow, because the world has forgotten you, and you have nothing to remember.
