[JoJo Part 5] Red Light

While I still remember, I'll record my thoughts on this article. It's a postscript. At least when I was writing it, I felt that the backbone of "Red Light" was much clearer than the previous short stories. To put it simply, it is a story about two imperfect people who magically fit together. The first is the setting of the background. The red light has several meanings. It is the heroine's real working environment and the "safe zone" she considers in her heart. She also mentioned in the opening paragraphs that she felt like she was "in purgatory." It's purgatory, not hell. Simply put, purgatory is the transitional zone where the souls of the dead are purified and redeemed. But the redemption that the heroine gets is the mirror. Let alone a god or a saint, he is even a "evil person". (Double quotation marks indicate that we do not want to make simple conclusions about good and evil here. From a universal perspective, he is indeed.) The mirror plays very little role in the original work, leaving few clues to the fan creators, who inevitably have to add their own interpretations. But I don't want to assert that he is elusive. To put it exaggeratedly, although the protagonist group has many roles, can they definitely be analyzed thoroughly? It also depends on the situation. For example, I am very afraid of analyzing Giorno (.) In the only scenes, Jing's character traits are quite distinct. Confidence, pride, and the negligence that results from confidence and pride. There is also the desire for control revealed by the ability of the person in the mirror (to be discussed). His ego is above others. In most cases, he is the one who has the upper hand - after all, he is strong and has confidence and pride. Iluso, you are so powerful. Jpg But as the saying goes, no one can walk on the shore without wet shoes. When he encounters counterattack from others (such as the defeat in the original work), this character will interfere with his judgment of the outside world, and his contempt for the enemy becomes his Achilles heel, so he falls behind. The article says that Iluso has a line of defense in his heart, but it is also a line of defense, and he and Lao Li behave differently. Lao Li is based on more objective and calm observation, but Iluso, due to his self-centeredness, will be mixed with subjective assumptions to some extent. This seems to put Iluso in a bad light, but I just think this is his unique charm. There's something wrong with you. Jpg The more you enter the adult world, the more you feel the inaccessible distance. The sense of distance is sometimes out of respect, but it can also lead to indifference between people and the inability to feel the care for each other. As for Mirror, he doesn't care much about other people, but he goes even further. He doesn't even care about the "sense of distance" that represents respect. Whenever he wants, he will boldly step into other people's safe zones and interfere. In real life, you need to stay away from such domineering and powerful people. But in the heroine's situation, this dominance is just right. Abandoned by her mother, she is on the fringes of society. She has always been transparent, but in the eyes of the mirror, she at least has a virtual image. However, Mirror's words and deeds, which were considered excessive in theory, were interpreted by her as "willful", and indulging his "willfulness" made her feel needed. Through this unconscious role-playing, she also healed the trauma of being abandoned by her mother. He is an "evil person" and the relationship between them is unhealthy, but this has become an opportunity for her to break through herself. She had been unwilling to change before, but that was just self-deception. It's not that she doesn't want to transform herself according to the standards of the outside world, but that she has already recognized this set of standards in her heart but is unwilling to admit it, because in her opinion, just like being abandoned by her mother, she has also been abandoned by the outside world. She was angry and afraid of being rejected and abandoned again after trying. So it hit her when the mirror respected her wishes that she "didn't want to assume a false identity." She gained confidence by discovering that she could make another person (and a self-centered person like the mirror) change, even just a little bit. However, just having confidence is not enough. People are lazy and weak, and they easily retreat. Especially in extreme situations like the heroine, she is more timid, so compared to gentle and patient persuasion, a stronger push may be more helpful for her to make up her mind. As for the marriage at the end of this article, I don't have optimistic ideas. The mirror did show some consideration for her, but it was impossible for him to transform into a good husband just like that. I'm afraid even science fiction writers would not dare to easily adopt such an exaggerated setting. Jpg Of course, this judgment only applies to the direction of this article (the desire to survive). Finally, let's talk nonsense. As I just said, this is an unhealthy relationship. It happened in an extreme situation where the heroine is a marginalized person in society. So I am not endorsing the relationship between them or advocating for imitation of it. I just wanted to explore some interesting possibilities. When two people meet, what kind of chemical reaction will their personalities lead to, and the diversity of souls that will emerge from it. I had been writing long stories in Jinjiang before. After I started writing Assassination Team fan fiction, I started to have the idea of ​​writing short stories, but I wasn't comfortable with it. Speaking of which, I haven't written much, from cheese to ice to mirror, it adds up to 50,000 words, but every word of these 50,000 words is full of my struggle. Because I have a bad habit, during the conception stage, various images and topics will grow uncontrollably, and eventually grow into a messy tree. After I start writing, I have to prune it so that it becomes beautiful and compact. If there are too many aspects that you want to express but none of them are clearly explained without making trade-offs, it will have a Riddler flavor. I think this way of writing is poor showoff and very poor. I have been trying to avoid and correct this, but I am unable to do so. However, as mentioned at the beginning, when I write this, at least I feel more comfortable. The main trunk becomes clear and there are not so many branches that need to be cut off. Hope it gets better and better. If you have any ideas, please discuss them. If you have strong objections, please take a deep breath and consider your words. There is freedom to attack and there is freedom to fight back.
