mindofgemini even if the first ten seconds of a female character's introduction is telling the protagonist to piss off, and then kicking his left buttock halfway down the street when he doesn't, i can still predict with 100% accuracy "Oh, she's the love interest" because a girl seeming like an hardass with no desire for the hero's company only seems to increase the chances she will end up falling into his arms by the end of the story how utterly jacked is that nonsense #old mog yells at a cloud #it's almost as if writers view independence as a character f 75 notes mindofgemini the more i think about it the more i remember just how much i hate that trope even if it wasn't a load of sexist crap playing into how women are always used as a reward for the hero in the end, it's always so consistently forced, rushed and predictable. it's not interesting and there's never any chemistry or tension about it. we just know it's going to happen, because some unspoken law says it has to, whether we like it or not, and whether it is remotely believable or not, do writers not realize this? do they actually think this is a legitimately interesting writing or that it's there's ever any doubt or surprise for when it happens? or do they just not care? it honestly baffles me that it's so prevalent. even if it wasn't in the name of feminism you'd think it'd have lost steam for writers by now for no other reason than how utterly hollow and dull it is every single time i mean if i can accurately predict "oh she's going to be the hero's love interest" literally ten seconds into her very first scene then Your Writing Is Bad #old mog yells at a cloud 42 notes mindofgemini GotG is alright but it did remind me how much I despise the whole Since I am the only woman, the protagonist and I shall form romantic/sexual tension at terminal velocity no matter how hard and independent I seemed at the beginning of the movie" thing #old mog yells at a cloud he kiss being interrupted doesn't really get it off the hook 44 notes

homunculus-argument My theory is that ghosts get their energy by sucking the oil out of door hinges. That's how you know a place is haunted. Because the doors creak, even if you've just oiled them. The ghosts suck the oil out.
