My Adaptation Of The God Of Arepo Short Story, Which Was Originally Up At ShortBox Comics Fair For Charity.

when I lose hope in the world I just read the God of Arepo and all's not well again but I feel the light of unbreakable bonds in my heart and that's enough. it should be enough for a mortal.

Temples are built for gods. Knowing this a farmer builds a small temple to see what kind of god turns up.

the most seen i’ve ever felt by a character is claire from fleabag. she’s sharp, controlled, untouchable. but underneath she’s holding on by a thread and that’s where i see myself the most. the constant push for perfection, for things to make sense, while quietly feeling like nothing ever will. it’s the ache of wanting more but never being sure if you’ll ever get it. she’s tough, she’s cold, she’s misunderstood. and she’s exactly what it feels like to keep everything together when you’re coming apart at the seams. there’s a pain in her perfection, a truth in her restraint that i understand on a level i don’t even know how to fully explain. she’s every part of me that i’m still trying to make sense of.

maybe maybe don't hurt the mortals? let them experience life long love? that would be funny

Achilles is a demigod who went on a rampage, wounded a minor river god into retreating & destroyed one of Troy's most prominent soldiers after suffering the grief of being away from Patroclus.

Diomedes is a human who managed to wound Ares & Aphrodite and he didn't do it for any personal reasons.

And now we have Odysseus, a human who managed to torture Poseidon into begging after suffering the grief of losing his crew, friends, and family & being away from his son and wife.

You'd think the gods would notice a pattern by now.

I'd love to see feminists placing women in the role of "default human" from now on as a way of centering them, using feminine pronouns when speaking of people generally. Men have done this for themselves for more than long enough. I want to take maleness out of our language as much as possible, at least in English.

"To each their own" >>> "To each her own"

"Every person should be able to do what he wants" >>> "Every person should be able to do what she wants"

"God in His infinite wisdom..." >>> "God in Her infinite wisdom..."

Etc.

Just speak from the female experience as much as possible. Wash maleness out of your speech, and you'll wash it gradually out of your way of thinking.

the pipeline from fucked up family to polyamorous incestuous fucked up family was.. certainly a choice in the 3rd episode

One of the most beautiful parts of Fleabag to me is that we have no concrete knowledge of Fleabag’s mom. Her mother is never once shown in the show because she dies before it starts, but she is brought up constantly. A large reason why Fleabag behaves the way she does is because she does not have her mom around anymore. But we don’t know if she is a good mom or a bad mom. We have no knowledge on how their relationship was, except for the fact that without her mom Fleabag does not understand how to navigate the world. And I love it because it raises the question does it matter?

I think regardless of our relationship, I’d also feel completely lost and out of place in the world without my mom. I also think the majority of people who have any sort of relationship with their mom would feel this way. Regardless if it’s bad or good.

So yeah it doesn’t matter how Fleabag and her mom’s relationship was. It could have been amazing. It could have been terrible. But at the end of the day, there is a part of Fleabag which is gone now that her mother is gone. I think the majority of us would feel the same in her shoes too.
