[OOC] High Casual - Welcome To Camp Liberty

[reiko]

@HalfOfLancelot Alex wins worst best friend award because she doesn't care to get involved in Goldfish's love life. And depending at what time of her life she's in, she might not want him to have one. She's an autophobic, selfish bitch. :c Buuttt, on the other hand, if someone goes around pursuing him, she might harass them to make sure they're good for Sunny, showing she loves him in her own, impractical way. <33

@Fabricant451 Sunny-Alex duo > Hana-Kitt. _{Plus, Alex is also really close with Alek so she's just surrounded by GBFs.}

Waiting for @Lockerz to get my replies in.
@Xilaw Good to see you're back! :D How was vacation? Also, mind Lela talking to Theo soon?

@Dirty Pretty Lies

The post is written, just in the process of working on something with Em and Mathius.

@reiko
I figured Alex would be the type. I was gonna type something about how Alex would probably just hiss and growl at anyone who tries to set Sunny up like that's my job and I'm not doing it deliberately because fuCK THAT I'M THE ONLY ONE WHO DESERVES THIS GAY BOY'S ATTENTION

But also the second part. Sunny would more than likely warn them about Alex's rigorous standards for him and then immediately introduce him because it's inevitable. It's gonna happen anyway. There's no use in fighting it.

Like Douglas Adams once said, "Resistance is useless!"

@Fabricant451
Sunny and Holden could never live up to society's definition of GBF. They're too atypical of the usual gay stereotype and that's deliberate on my part. For the usual reasons a real life gay boy has concerning projecting his own desires and dislikes into his work. >_> <_<

this is me talking about one thing and then suddenly moving on to ranting about another thing haha

(note: i'm not talking about anyone's character, at all, in this rant. i'm just talking about the term GBF and its connotations toward stereotypical homosexaulity, i.e. Laganja Estranja... or is that e.g.?)

i'm just not a fan of playing the homosexual stereotype because it often perpetuates that that's the only thing that matters about the character, which, for character development, I think is actually a good choice. Going with stereotypes, that is, because then you have a foundation for which to build your character up and expand them from simply being a stereotype to being a three-dimensional person. That aside, no matter what you do, when making a character or a story you're always going to be following some kind of archetype or some kind of trope without ever consciously making that decision. Or at least, not knowing that the decision to go a certain direction is just using a specific trope or character/story type (it seems so degrading to think about it that way and generalizing; but, in my personal opinion, it's not because these things are what can make a story fucking fantastic. when you get out of the mindset that these things are boxes you put yourself in and instead are actually tools to enhance your writing, the quicker you'll learn that tropes, archetypes, and to some extent stereotypes can be the best thing you can ever put into your story and that being "Original" can be one of the most detrimental things to both plot and character). That's a whole can of worms, though, because then there's the discussion of using them well to and in combinations that make your story original to you. And I'm getting on a tangent. It's why I slashed and subbed this. Haha.

Wow.

That's me getting carried away. It was originally in a slash but i decided, fuck it, i'm putting it in a hider because that's irritating on the eyes.

@Dirty Pretty Lies
Holden will hate Lela so much. So, so, so much. But, only at first and only because he thinks it's none of her business. He'll come around, though, definitely, and appreciate her trying, at least. Even if he tends to consider help as an affront to him as a person. I think Nessa and Lela would be good examples for him, to be honest. To see that getting help from people doesn't mean admitting defeat and failure, but is rather a key step to finding some kind of success in life or achieving a goal.

Aw.

@lovely complex
Holden's immediate thought, "That bitch. Playing dirty," but also quietly thanking her for getting it over with.

[reiko]

@HalfOfLancelot THUMBS UP ALL AROUND FOR UNDERSTANDING ALEX THEN AM I UNDERSTANDING THE PRECIOUS SUNSHINE RAY BEAM THAT SHINES ON EVERYONE'S FACES AND GIVES THEM LIFE CORRECTLLLYYYYY? D: Where is Sunny going to go for college? I feel like Alex should know this.

Headcanon: At Sunny's graduation party, Alex was kind of a downer because she was upset and envious and worried that all these people who went to school with him and knew him longer were considered his better friends than her so he actually spent a significant time at his own damn party trying to cheer up and reassure the selfish attention whore. oh my god she's so terrible

[Venus]

@Lockerz Thanks for letting me know! :D

@HalfOfLancelot She'll try for as long as Holden lets her. Hell, she might even team up with Nessa to set him up and stuff.
