don't lose your way

So today, aside from writing a butt-ton of stuff (and other stuff), I have mostly been reading about Attack on Titan. Because I have no desire to watch it, and I wanted to know what it was about. And wow, actually, it's really interesting. I like the writer's ideas! I still have absolutely no desire to watch it (although I am going to listen to the soundtrack because kotetsu recced me a couple of tracks in my last entry*, and I see it is the same guy who did the KLK soundtrack. So I will give it a listen because of that, and also Gratuitous German**. I am always up for that).

So that was a thing.

Also I am itching to share this story with someone, but it's all handwritten and completely non-chronological because that's the way my brain works and I've always written so pity the poor fool who finds my notebook after I'm dead is what I'm saying.

I daren't type it up yet in case I lose interest.

*I was asking for boss music/fight scene music for writing inspiration, and if you have any, you're totally welcome to add a comment either here or there :)

**My story is Gratuitous German: The Story. No. Really. I'm thinking of changing my story tag from the current one about abominations to this because it's actually more accurate.

My husband and sister LOVE Attack on Titan but I could never be bothered to read or watch it. The story I think really is a good one, but I'm totally not interested in getting heavily into it at all if only because I for some reason have this thing against shows/movies where little people have to fight giant people. How I enjoyed Pacific Rim is even a mystery in that sense, so somehow I think there's even more to it than that that I'm unaware of lol.

Same here! I mean, I don't mind people smashing people about in mecha (if only because I gravitate towards it naturally even though I think I don't like it), but kaiju stuff I find reeeeally boring and not my kind of thing at all, which is why I've never watched a Godzilla movie and I'm not about to start now.

For me, there's lot of little things I like about Pacific Rim that are beyond the main story, like the colours in scenes, and Mako and Raleigh's bond with each other. I'm certainly not running around claiming it's the best film I've ever seen (because it isn't), but yeah, I think it's the other stuff beyond the kaiju and the huge mecha that make it likeable.
