TIL an old lady who bumped into Stephen King in the supermarket told him she didn’t like his writing and she preferred uplifting movies like Shawshank Redemption. When King told her he wrote that too, she replied ‘No, you didn’t.’, causing King to momentarily doubt that he was indeed the author.

writers: *intentionally write villain as sympathetic*

fans: *sympathize with villain*

For everyone on this post asking which villains I’m talking about/what kind: this post was written especially about the all villains that you particularly hate, and it was written to spite you, personally.

Additionally…

Writers: *didn’t write the villain as obviously sympathetic, but gave them a couple of experiences and powerful emotions that some people share and thus relate to, while making the hero too perfect and sweet to necessarily be relatable to those people*

People: *write AUs and the like to explore their own more sympathetic version of the villain and potential redemptions*

honestly man i just want someone to want me. to text me. to use a simple situation as an excuse to touch me. i want someone to think about me when they go to sleep and to tell me exactly that. i want someone to flirt with me, to ask me out. to hold my hand. i want someone to call me in the middle of the day, if for no other reason, because they felt like it. i just want someone i want to want me back.
