guess who's back. hello devoted followers of ian nation i am back for my 1.5 month check in muehehe. was doing some homework when i remembered i have spacehey so i logged back in for the 1st time and left my dear friend anikaa on delivered for a month (sorry again...TT). anyway, halloween went great, couldn't tell if i weirded or freaked ppl out but that just makes it more exciting right?

can you believe we just got out of thanksgiving break and merely 27 days away from 2026?? jeez. and for my theater program, we're only a month away from show week! woo!

anyway. been watching the critiques of st5 on tiktok and personally, as an aspiring film writer/director and an avid ao3 scholar, i'm a big believer of trusting the writers and how they choose to pace the show (lore-wise). stranger things will throw you 5 different plotlines at 5 different places at the same time, and with a story so complicated and intricate, i can't imagine how long that takes to plan out, and to add on, having to lay out the script that covers all of it but keep you hooked at the same time. so what im trying to say is, i think some opinions should be kept to yourself before the show truly ends, so that way, u can feel about it however u want when there's nothing more to come out, yaknow?

thats all i got for tonight folks. lmk what ure enjoying abt st5 so far! p.s. don't believe in coincidences. wink.

xoxo ian
