Lady Protag Day (or something like that)

Saw Korra finale, but I'm keeping my thoughts off the internet for people's sanity, though if you need to get your feelings out feel free to email me!

I also saw Brave today and I REALLY ENOYED IT. Mostly because while I've been watching the general buzz, I've not been like steeped in every detail due to like, it not being certain fandoms. So I was pleasantly surprised! It's very mom/daughter centric, so if you've been wanting more of that in your princess stories (yay no 1-D mom!) um, this is for you.

(Also, [personal profile] whitemage go see this with your mom. And also your new Halloween costume I think is Merida cause reasons.
thene: Fang, Vanille and the space between them. (awakened)

I know and it's fine really, I am used to recognising that meta/commentary relating to normative families is Not About Me and I don't want to be That Whiny Snowflake.

It does piss me off how little stuff there is about daughters, period. Hollywood is wall-to-wall father-son dynamics and it's so boring. I am sick of seeing good worldbuilding or good acting wasted on that samey bullshit. TRON: Legacy, Thor...it's all so frustrating.
thene: Nono, the moogle mechanic from FFXII (moogle love)

fff, right after seeing TRON: Legacy, I came home and wrote an AU drabble for [community profile] queerlygen in which Sam Flynn was a trans woman, because that was like The More Interesting Version In My Head as I was watching it.

omg how dare you ruin the totally accurate history that is Brave and Mulan
