rip sirius black you would’ve loved pink pony club

bro english is not my first language. slow down
controversial but
this is how jegulus antis see them and lily
neil josten is UNREAL oh my god
I'll think about tcoptp's sirius black forever
I completely agree. I've seen many people say that aftg's writing is bad, but I really don't see why
There are super deep characters with soooo much to find out about, with so many quotes that are full of meaning and sometimes we barely notice it, but its there anyway
Besides the fact of how, even being a third person narrative, its almost like neil was writing the books himself. you can CLEARLY see his personality in every line. "oh but there are stuff about the protagonist's life that we don't even know until the other characters find out" so???? you can't tell me that that's not the biggest neil josten thing to do. come on the guy lied so much that he was almost believing in his own lies, HE'S NOT A TRUSTABLE PROTAGONIST, THAT'S THE FUN PART, LET HIM BE.
"oh but there are so many characters and the narrator still only talks about his past, andrew, kevin and exy" again. three words. neil fucking josten. he was running away from his serial killer father, he had to do his best not to get attached to everyone and everything because if something happened he was ready to run away right in that second
And the point only proves itself when we get to TSC and in one book Jean talks about a thousand different people all the time
Don't FUCKING argue with me. "Neil Josten let his cigarette burn to the filter without taking a drag. He didn't want the nicotine; he wanted the acrid smoke that reminded him of his mother." Is a fucking dynamite intro!! Is it edgy as fuck? Yeah. So? Is it hella melodramatic? Probably. So? Is it bad writing? Motherfucking NO! It's damn near expert level execution of several writing principles!
Who is the story about? First two words, next question.
Catch the reader's attention as soon as possible? "Why the fuck is he wasting a cigarette?" Intrigue successfully demanded, next question.
Raise questions that will keep the reader hanging long enough to have answered? "Why the fuck does acrid smoke trigger his mommy issues?" + "Wait it's because he burned her corpse??" Many many more questions raised + blind sided reader via preconceived expectations being subverted, next question.
Character establishing moment? What other characters use for physical and emotional regulation, he uses to fucking reminisce and wallow in his feelings, next question.
Set the tone for the rest of the story? Edgy, melodramatic, and emotionally gut wrenching, NEXT. FUCKING. QUESTION!
The Muses asked Nora to roll for Hook and she rolled a nat 20 five times in a row in 30 words or less. Hook, Line, and motherfucking Sinker bitches
Some of y'all need to stop ragging on AFTG's writing and start using it as a fucking case study cus this shit has the addiction capacity of heroine and god help the goddamn saltine cracker throwing stones
aroace people are not tragic or sad! my asexuality has nothing to do with my psychological problems!
