So there's a family, right? Father, Mother, Son
And the father is dead now but before he died he did impart a desire for his son to follow in his footsteps. And for the most part the son does, the son wants to make his dad proud, even as he is shredded with guilt over the ways he doesn't measure up to his dead father. He has a way to talk to his father in the afterlife. Sometimes it works, sometimes the dad is too busy.
And the mom, right? The son and the mom barely see each other despite living in the same household. And in some ways it's for reasons the mother has little control of but, man, she could be trying harder. She could be trying harder to be there for him.
But she gives her son as much resources as she can so he can have a good life. And then in the last few years of his highschool career she withdraws from him more to go live the life she always wanted to. Even if that life takes her further from her son.
Do you ever think about how the Seacasters and the Gukgaks are such similar families?

Oh, okay. I see. You think this has nothing to do with you. You go to your closet and you select out, oh I don’t know, that gaslight gatekeep girlboss meme, for instance, because you’re trying to tell the world that you think modern feminism has been co-opted by corporations. But what you don’t know is that that meme is not from Instagram, it's not from Twitter, it's not from Tiktok, it’s actually from Tumblr. You’re also blithely unaware of the fact that in January 2021, Tumblr user missnumber1111 posted, "today's agenda: gaslight gatekeep and most importantly girlboss." And then I think it was a-m-e-t-h-y-s-t-r-o-s-e, wasn’t it, who reblogged it with an image of the phrase edited over a piece of "Live, Laugh, Love" wall art? And then gaslight gatekeep girlboss showed up in the feeds of eight different Twitter repost accounts. Then it filtered down through Instagram and then trickled on down into some tragic “alt side of Tiktok” where you, no doubt, fished it out of some clearance bin. However, that meme represents millions of notes and countless Tumblr users and so it’s sort of comical how you think that you’ve made a choice that exempts you from Tumblr when, in fact, you’re wearing the meme that was selected for you by the people in this room. From a pile of “stuff.”
at long last... completed my fig animatic :]

My pronouns are she, but not her, because I'll never be her.
Brennan when D20 first started: Yeah, we're in a dome that can change colors depending on the situation, blue to start out, red for combat, we've got some purple and some green and maybe some yellow in there for ambiance, custom battle sets made by Rick Perry :)

"This will cure your writer's block" - she said
"I promise it's very healing" - she said
Have I ever mentioned how important Brennan game changer episodes are to me?
