The transition from “Why do *I* need to survive” in the original post to “YOUR tragic and graphic demise” in the follow-up is some kind of ominous threat
"if you got isekai'd into [story] would you survive?"
why do i need to survive? is it not enough to have one charming conversation with geralt of rivia before dying tragically and preventably two days later thus changing the trajectory of his life forever ?? ?
why is it that people who dont play hollow knight are the funniest about it. friend whos been watching me play sent me this headcanon of theirs
Harry Potter is like Star Wars in that, in its original incarnation, you aren't supposed to think about it, its world is a pastiche meant to provide suitable aesthetics for a simple and fun adventure story. And at that task it succeeded so thoroughly that it attracted a lot of people who wanted to think about it, and in its later incarnations it seems that its creators want to too. But this was a doomed thing from the start because it wasn't designed for that and was never going to succeed at it.
