I have been trying to work on Lorekeeper which is a response to RWBY

and by that I mean in a Digimon vs Pokemon (except RWBY is the ‘Pokemon’ and Lorekeeper is my ‘Digimon’)

And I already have been writing characters that are the same type in rwby but with a different outcome along with some other characters from other series that I hate how they ended

like Luminere and Nikkis are a response to what they did to Jaune and Pyrrha

Bridget and Elio are a response of what I dread they might to Blake and Sun

(insert Neptune substitute here) and Tekla are a response to Weiss and Neptune alone with Kamina and Yoko

future characters I make are a response to what I felt in regards happened to Jack and Ashi and Nia and Simon

ect ect

and keep in mind, I have ditched RWBY because I really feel like what they did with arkos, they’re gonna do it again with another paring (Sun and Blake to be exact) and everyone is gonna praise how it contributes to the narrative, how it hurts so good, and how as long as they save the world and keep a good attitude, in the end its all worth it, which for me doesn’t cut it anymore. I mean I get the message, I do believe it, but I feel like its being shoved down my throat at this point

Believe me, I used to like this kind of storytelling, but I am run ragged,I am sick of it now, its not enjoyable for me anymore. I want character to get happy ending again, I want character parings go through the wringer and make it in the end. I’m getting sick of people thinking that they’re invincible all the time because they’re aren’t dead. I personally think we have become so desensitized to the pain of their hardships that death and bittersweetness is thee only thing that gets through our skulls. That we exploit “power through the bad” and “keep moving forward” and that they will “hold a place in their heart and memorialize them” as means to target characters like them and use them for such plot devices and that only sitcoms can have the kinds of things I like, because thats “the rules” and “new standards”

I see this as Options, not standards, nobody should be obligated to follow them if they don’t want to and nobody should be looked down on or seen as inferior in refusing to do so. Like those who do like this stuff are “more evolved” and “more mature” that “people” don’t find it interesting as if their kind only count. That you have to be an “aspie”, an “autistic”, or “insane” to like this because apparently no true “sane”, “intelligent”, “normal” person wouldn’t

And I am sick of “That’s life” being the justification or “impact, or “consequences”, it seems like its made to be some sort “Flex-Tape” of storytelling. Just slap “That’s life” on there and it’s automatically legit.

I want it to be like in the days of Inuyasha, Dragonball Z, Saint Seiya(aka Knights of The Zodiac), anime back in the 80s and 90s where people just appreciated the pain they went through and didn’t use them as targets of such plot devices and threw them away like broken dolls.

But Im going on a tangent here

I plan on killing their significant others so my main character can resurrect them with new power(and he nearly gets killed by the Greek Titan of Time, Chronos, for it)

But part of me wants do it order to give Rooster Teeth, Gainax, Takahiro(writer of Akame Ga Kill), and George RR Martin the finger and say “**** YOU ALL I REINCARNATED YOUR CHARACTERS AND GAVE THEM WHAT YOU TOOK FROM THEM, TAKE THAT.” and I know thats REALLY immature

It’s just, I really got personal in terms of resonating with these characters, and what happened at the end of V3 I took it VERY personally…like I seriously fell into an OCD depression because of it…

What should I do?

Sorry for sounding so negative
 
Are you asking for literary advice or spiritual guidance?

If it’s the first, this belongs in the ‘casual’ subforum.
 
Thats the thing, because this is very personal for me but at the same time its for advice for me as a writer sense so I don’t know If I should put it in causal or spiritual
