I Find It Kind Of Funny That Shane Is Labelled The "i Can Fix Him" Romance Of Sdv But...he Really Isn't.

I find it kind of funny that Shane is labelled the "i can fix him" romance of sdv but...he really isn't. You, the player, actually do very little in terms of "fixing" him. You watch him have a few breakdowns, and you intervene when he's drunk on the cliffs, but...he's the one who decides to start going to therapy. He's the one who decides to quit drinking. These are not things that you ever encourage him to do. You can headcanon certain interactions all you want, but this isn't like "the player chooses the genre of Elliott's future book." You have no impact on whether or not Shane cleans up his life. You support him at a few key moments, but the desire to change and be better comes from Shane, not the player.

You don't fix him. He fixes himself.

There was definitely an agenda when they wrote/played the scenes between Thorin and Bilbo, because I swear to god the romantic tension is intense, complete with aborted confessions and swelling music. But the book? The book is not very shippable at all.

They really worked to put that romance in there.

The gay agenda is real, and Peter Jackson is behind it.

young artist posting your work online, heed my warning. im holding your face so gently in my hands, you have to stop caring about numbers right now and start caring about making the weirdest and most self-indulgent art you possibly can
