So I have a theory that Jackson's Diary is less of a supernatural and more of a story about two mentally ill people with magic involved and I decided to reread it and keep notes on anything and everything that supports that theory
PS:much easier if you read the chapter after or while reading these notes
Chp6 notes:
•exer starting a conversation with Jackson with the questions game and Jackson looking a but uncomfortable telling exer, he knows what exer is doing and he refuses to play along by not asking questions back. Jackson switching back to his facade once someone approach him to get his number, bet he was thankful to the girl for cutting exer off
•exer being literally ignored by the girl asking Jackson for his number then David brushing him physically aside to talk to Jackson and even call him Mr perfection as Jackson denies it and exer gives him a 'really now?' look then we instantly get Jackson repeatedly shining- which ngl for a people pleaser he's showing off alot and without giving chances to anyone else and basking in compliment while claiming to not being that great but loving the attention
•the fact Jackson even get along with Brenda who's showing clear signs of having a crush on him? I'd say for someone who's showing signs of egocentric behavior as shocking as that sounds exer is actually being extremely patient with Jackson
Concept: A third version of Jackson with pitch black eyes (cause his r gray amd njs r white) and its the good side of him with all hid good traits and intentions.
We’re going to find the author by process of elimination.
When writing stories with ensemble casts do you find yourself liking/writing more for certain characters? How do you write for characters that aren’t necessarily your favorites? Like I know Lenore and Annabel are more main than the rest so how do you manage the others? And how do you make them all so unique from each other?
If there's ever a character I feel like I haven't connected with, I just assume it's because I haven't "found" them yet. Like, sometimes you need to do a little searching to find the thread in them you can latch onto, if that makes sense? So whenever I feel disconnected from a character, I try to go back to that thread, and I don't proceed until I can feel it and am able to follow it myself. I name the threads as I go, like - it might be something like "paranoia", "mask", "disgust", "worthless" - like, core character themes/trajectories/feelings? - and naming the threads keeps them really different from each other. Because once you know the core of a character, you can stick to it really closely and then it's easy to notice if there's too much overlap with others. That's all really floaty and weird, how I described that. I don't know if I sounds insane or what, lol. But I swear that it makes sense in my head. tldr; I can more easily connect with certain characters than others. But I connect pretty deeply with all of them once I am able to "find" them. And after that, they're all very fun to write.
Thinking about "I love Amy" as a story about breaking the cycle of abuse
How Amy feared cars for most of her childhood because of what her mother did, but ended up getting a driver's license so that she could drive her kid to school
How she was so terrified of falling in love and hurting her loved ones like her mother did, but ended up striving to be the kind of partner that Bibi needed
How the abuse Nick experienced made him resent Bibi, how Bibi got sick of losing everything she loved and ended up seriously hurting people in her attempts to get what she wanted, how she ignored Amy's wishes for such a long time, but when Amy ran away and Bibi found her, she decided to give Amy a choice. Bibi would bring Amy anywhere she wanted to go.
How Bibi is described as a yandere, but "not a yandere to Amy. They just love each other."

Chp2 notes:
•on the car panel David had a scratched out 'heeeeeyyyy' while exer delivered a smooth line, this is a sign of having an affable approach later on when he walks through the halls he displays strong cordial behavior as well. Brenda displays a similar behavior and that could be a reason why exer was drawn to her
•exer saying 'let's go' to David to help the girl but it's in a strong tone like he's giving out a command without sugarcoating it then his smug look when Rick and Morty make fun of him before he shifts it instantly to seem warning fully aware they won't listen before he returns the smug and spelling out the word respect, this is all a tactic to get Rick and Morty to bow to him and stay in line
•Exer quite literally playing Rick Morty and even David for fools when he says that it's strange they trapped like this before turning around and noticing Jackson and like last chapter hold his gaze- this is a sign of suspicious that Jackson saw through him then when Jackson said he thought he saw green exer was generally in disbelief
•the notes on exer are much MUCH less than Jackson's and not until the very end did we finally get exer's thoughts which are a total of literally 3 thoughts this is massively different compared to Jackson and I don't think it's really a coincidence as it seems that knowing how the gears in exer's head turn is gonna make his narrative massively easier to understand in comparison to Jackson whose constantly self sabotage
……
Something about me— I never started learning how to draw because I thought I just would be too impatient for it. Even tho I thought it would be fun.
On an unrelated note, I recently started anti depressants.
On another unrelated note, I can’t find fanart for a thing. *cough* baby & solo *cough*
On ANOTHER COMPLETELY UNRELATED NOTE, I seem to have the desire to make fanart for a certain thing. Along with maybe more things. Despite not having time. Or patience. Or art skills. Or the ability to be ok with not being good at something right off the bat.
Ha. Hahahahaha. Ha. Depression, huh?
Here it is, my wicked awful creation, my disaster of a first fanfic, lowkey a bit scared of the chaos this might cause
