Jonah Magnus seemed to receive two types of letters
1. Hello friend I recently experienced something sinister and since you have that funky institute of yours, I thought you’d like to hear it
and

Xie Lian meeting his soon to be new puppy 🤲🏻
Hualian's red thread is a great symbol of Hua Cheng's love. It's reminiscent of the red thread of fate, but Hualian weren't exactly fated--actually quite the opposite, they were kept apart. By putting the red thread himself, Hua Cheng forces fate to never separate them again. It symbolizes all the hard work he's put in to search for and find Xie Lian. He literally creates his own fate, their own fate, with pure will, just like he doesn't pass away out of pure will. It's his love and immeasurable strength and will power.
I know I haven't been super active on here for the last few months, but I don't know where else to turn... My name is Harmony, and I'm a 19yo trans lesbian who needs help escaping an abusive situation.
My mom and dad recently found out that I'm trans, and what was once verbal and mental abuse has turned physical and violent very fast. I've packed a suitcase and I'm planning on leaving, but I have nowhere to go and I'm so fucking scared.
I don't want to ask for too much but I would love to just get a hotel room for a few nights until I can find someone I can stay with. If it were summertime, I would just sleep in my car, but it's way too cold for that right now... The cheapest hotel near me is $60 a night and I only have $14 to my name at the moment. If you can send even a dollar, or spread this post, it would help me so much.
Thank you for considering, and thank you for reading.

Disclaimer that by saying this I by no means mean to insult or exclude non-writers, but: Scum Villain really is a story for storytellers, huh
It's so incredibly meta - so much of it is about the way stories are told, the structures of plot and narrative logic, the way that plot drives character and character drives plot, examination of story devices that make sense in-world and how strange they look when divorced from narrative context, exploring the limits of the suspension of disbelief and the backlash when readers hit those limits and recoil, even without getting into the meditation on external pressures and the warping effect of deadlines and money on a storyteller's craft.
in scum villain the story tools (tropes, framing, character arcs, licensing) are the plot, and the plot is a tool in the story, and the author's problems are Airplane's problems and his problems are the author's problems and the main character is the reader and he brings the reader's eye into the story and his meta-knowledge becomes his greatest asset and also his greatest blindness, just the way that a self-aware reader can get more out of a story but can also by their very cynical meta-awareness block themselves from unabashed enjoyment of it
I think it's not a coincidence that so many people who have spent years writing get so hung up on this series.
SO PRETTY OMG

心碎是什么声音呢?
那是一种天塌下来的声音,震耳欲聋、眼前一黑。”
