COWBOY LIKE ME PART II
I love how Luke and Din got only few seconds together and yet we still went ‘yup, they are dating now’
*whispers quietly into the void*
It’s okay to like problematic characters.
It’s okay to like absolute shithead characters.
It’s okay to guess at how those characters can change.
It’s okay to think they don’t have to.
It’s okay to focus on one part of a character to the exclusion of every other part
because you find it interestingbecause it speaks to youfor whatever fucking reason you want.Characters are narrative devices that propel a story.
The point of stories is to make you feel things and, maybe, think things.
It’s okay if the tools used to make you feel things have successfully Made You Feel.
And it’s okay if someone Feels Differently.
No one promised you the feeling would be Nice.
Or that it would be a socially-agreed-upon Gross.
A successful story – a successful piece of art – is one that makes you feel something.
It’s okay to feel something. Whatever that is.
And it’s okay for all of us.

I feel so called out. π
