The Offscreen Life of Hideki Tang & 'Friends' - Aversion Therapy

[mzyra]

Blame a mixture of Game of Thrones and my own writer's block. There's gonna be a lot of stuff that you don't see but is alluded to (whether because it's waaaaaaaaaay OTT/dark, or just because it isn't necessary for it to go into greater detail for the main purposes of the story (or I couldn't stage it anyway)) where Hideki & co are concerned, but I

Hideki Tang: When a Pool of Piranhas Simply Isn't Enough.

Seriously. Seth and Rodney are teddy bears compared to Hideki. I've just about forgotten my reasons for wanting Rodney fed to piranhas when reading this. Hideki just... I have no words.

Hi Sal! *waves* He'll be getting old in my game VERY soon, it's kind of sad he hasn't had a larger role. Oh wait, he's a villain too, isn't he? I forget that some people are meant to be bad X) Antagonist is probably a better term a lot of the time, but villain's more fun.

Would it be a surprise to say that this is pretty much Hideki at his cuddliest? Like... he's bothering to pretend, and he generally has very little time and effort for that. I mean... You'll see.
As for Seth and Rodney, I think it's the problem of PoV characters where you end up sympathising with them more than more 'good' characters who you never see through. To remember why you should hate Rodney you need to see through the eyes of Juan mostly, but he's dead, gone and happy now...
Anyway, hate or love away! X)

Hideki is even worse than Seth and Rodney. You've created another great villain here. The psychological torture he's capable of, with absolutely no remorse, is truly frightening.

I really, really loved this:
"Think, for example, of all the ways society shames people sexually: to wait until love or marriage, not to do things on their own, not to even think about it... But they do it anyway. They feel the shame and carry on. In fact, you get shame spirals where people do something and feel bad about it and then do it again because of the shame they feel. I doubt it'll stop anyone."

He certainly is! Though he has his reasons...

Thank you very much! ^.^ My characters can occasionally has wisdom/common sense :P

Egads! 0_0! And with no remorse, or any likelihood of repentance either. *shivers*

Gosh, compared to Seth and Rodney Hideki's practically the devil incarnate. *shivers again*
