Writer Problems #1405

them: you don’t watch game of thrones?? really? how come?

me: 

Do you know if anyone wrote a response fic to show!Sansa publicly talking about Bran's supposed inability to have children (with no apparent concern about his feelings, even if show!bran acts like he doesn't feel anymore, it was still rude of her) just to bolster her own position? I just want Bran to get his personality back since the NK is defeated (maybe being called Bran the Broken by Tyrion triggers a response), marry Meera and have a bunch of children, just to rub it in Sansa's face.

I can’t even think about all the bs that occurred in that episode, especially in regards to Sansa being continuously propped up as this genius and brilliant snarker when her “genius” only occurs because everyone else is made into an idiot rather than raising her intelligence to a new level, her constant rudeness is made “okay” retroactively because “well Dany turned out to be mAadd” so Sansa antagonizing everyone was just fine because she was “right”… later on, and her “snark” is literally just rude comments because telling people they’re stupid in the blandest terms ever and interrupting her own uncle who literally suffered through years of imprisonment and torture for her brother is both incredibly rude and a display of her complete lack of leadership skills (don’t get me started on cowering in the crypt and letting more vulnerable smallfolk be slaughtered before she gets talked into helping out or how she constantly takes credit for other peoples’ accomplishments and gets pissy when someone rightfully identifies that she didn’t do anything and when someone does try to be nice and tell her she did something she is, uh, rude. Or how her version of ‘ruling’ is encouraging the lords to be discontented and disobedient to their sovereign and occasionally looking like she does some counting and tells armorers how to do their own job and only actually talks about issues that affect other people when it’s a convenient but weak rhetorical device to deny hospitality to her sovereign who has come to save her butt) and after all that she spitefully throws in this assumption that Bran can’t have kids which was unasked for and unproven. I’ve probably ranted about how Bran should go have 200 bastards (and legitimize all of them) in revenge for Sansa’s comment which would also create Westeros’s biggest succession crisis. Oh and then she demands that she get to be a queen which is all very well and good since the North won’t exist anymore in about two days. That’s all it’ll take for Tormund to invade from the north and Yara from the west and she has no friends or support since she’s made such a big thing out of being a jerk to literally everyone and Bran’s response would probably be “Well hey sis you wanted your independence so why should I send my troops and food to help you, the queen of your independent northern kingdom? You made it pretty clear you hated it when Daenerys sacrificed her mission and her men and supplies to save northern butts before. I just assumed you would understand that this is what your version of independence results in.” 

Sorry I just needed to get all that off my chest.

I may or may not choose to address the topic in my own post-s8 rage reaction fic but I do know of one such fic that’s in progress:

The Death of Erwin, Who Lived for His Dream

After losing his friend within an equal relationship, Levi will…?

- Erwin losing his life at the Battle at Shiganshina - that was quite a shocking development. Isayama: To have Erwin perish during that point was pre-planned. I always wanted to portray Levi and Erwin as having an equal relationship. Erwin bears an innocent motivation to “seek the truth” and a need for atonement, since his actions had led to his father’s death. He joined the Survey Corps due to these two reasons. Then little by little, he ended up in the position of leading this group, while he himself wavered between the roles of “a child who chased his dream” and “an adult who carried responsibilities.” In order to affirm his self-identity, he fabricated the false ambition of fighting “For humanity’s future,” and he continued to fool himself.

- A man viewed as someone who “abandoned his humanity” actually never abandoned his own dream and purpose for living. It’s truly astonishing. Isayama: This is the same for Levi. The reason Levi always operates alongside Erwin is because he interpreted Erwin’s “For Humanity’s Future” as an altruistic intention that Levi never considered himself, so Levi ends up adopting it as his own life’s mission. Hence, Levi also requested for Erwin to become a man who is “loyal to the mission” and “can make composed decisions.” When he discovers that Erwin actually has a selfish goal like his “dream,” it can be said that he felt betrayed. However, he also recognizes that this person whom he cannot hope to surpass actually has “an innocent, childlike side that chases dreams.”

This is for reaaall??? Where I can find this note????

LIKE WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT? SO IT WAS NATHAN’S TABLET? YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME !?!?!?!

Nice theory, but if Chloe die, Jeff and Nathan will be arrest so Max's power useless at this point, so why Max has this power if not 4 save Chloe?

This is gonna be a long post latent with spoilers so continue at your own risk.

I can’t put this under a read more because I’m mobile at work waiting to go downstairs & take care of my hellion children BUT I think I can make sense of the whole ‘WHAT WAS THE POINT OF MAX GETTING THE POWERS IF WE WEREN’T SUPPOSED TO SAVE CHLOE!!!’

We were never supposed to save Chloe. The plot was never really about Chloe. A lot of the complaints I’ve seen also question the significance of the ghost deer and the point of the whole game, and here is what it is, in my humble opinion.

Max was gifted these supernatural powers not to save Chloe, but to expose Jefferson. We can assume, based on that shot in episode 4 where the deer fades away after Rachel’s body is found by the pair that the deer spirit that Max keeps seeing is in fact Rachel communicating from beyond the grave ( in episode 2 when you’re in the junkyard with Chloe, the deer is seen laying in the exact spot Rachel was buried. )

To expose Jefferson, Max had to know that there was something seriously sinister going on. To figure that out, Chloe needed to be alive not only as a connection to Rachel but a connection to Frank, the drugs, and then Nathan Prescott & Jefferson. Chloe was right in saying that she dragged Max into all this 100% because she was the tie-in to the world that Max missed out on by moving to Seattle.

The reason we had the vision of the tornado before meeting Chloe was to instill that sense of urgency into Max. Remember her original quest was to figure out how to stop the tornado from coming. In actuality, Chloe being alive is the catalyst for the storm, not Max’s powers like she thinks.

By going back and letting Chloe die, Max is returning to the past with all the information she needs ( the location of the dark room, Jefferson’s involvement, etc. ) to put an end to Jefferson’s scheme, saving Kate from being drugged, saving Nathan from being killed and allowing him to get the help he needs, and getting justice for what happened to Rachel.

Max’s powers were a gift from Rachel in the afterlife, as a way to find justice ( remember how angry she looked in those photos? I do ) for what was done to her. Chloe was the catalyst for that justice and needed to be kept alive. But the universe had written in her death & was going to do anything to make it happen. Even throw a tornado at a whole town. To keep balance, and save the community, she had to die in that bathroom, but not until Max had the power to lock Jefferson up for good.

You guys honestly think the universe is gonna stop gunning for Chloe after the final decision?

The Real Hospital Ending!

To finally clearify the whole third ending issue: I found this article where Michel Koch (Co-Director and Writer on Life is Strange) talks about the heavily discussed Hospital Ending.

And this is really interesting because they considered not letting Chloe die and instead leaving her in a coma.

“It wasn’t a third ending. It was when we were in the writing process, we were hesitating between when you make the choice of sacrificing Chloe to save Arcadia Bay, we were hesitating between really killing Chloe like we did and maybe leaving her in a coma to offer hope that she could still be alive. But ultimately, when we were writing, we thought that it wasn’t a good decision to go this way, because it would reduce the impact of your choice. So if you’re making the choice of sacrificing Chloe, we shouldn’t make a cop-out and we should go all the way to really offer an end.”

Chloe would’ve survived that.

A chance for Chloe and Arcadia Bay to be saved.

Eveything would’ve turned out great. For everyone.

David would still be the hero who arrested Nathan. Nathan would still get punishment and hopefully mental help. Jefferson would still get busted by Nathan and go to jail. Rachel would still be found and get her justice. The Prescotts would still lose their reputation and control over the town due to this scandal. Kate would still not try to commit suicide. Victoria, Frank, Pompidou and everybody else in the town would still be alive.

And the most important part: Chloe would still be alive. Chloe and Max would still be together. They would still have a second chance. They could still take over the world like they’ve always dreamed of.

Imagine Max sitting in the bathroom,  crying and thinking she just let Chloe die and then…

… surprise!…awaking in the new timeline, realizing she’s sitting at Chloe’s hospital bed. She’s still by Chloe’s side.

*insert fan art*

No Storm. No Guilt. No Regrets. But still full of amazing memories she doesn’t share with the Chloe in this timeline. Not yet. But they will become real once again.

I like this outcome even more than the Max sacrifices herself version. It’s way more logical regarding the time-travel/destiny stuff, and just too ironic that Max went through everything for nothing. Because Chloe was never meant to die.

TIME FOR NEW FAN FICTIONS, COMMUNITY!

This is my bible. Bye.
