I think so because
>He says “See you later” instead of goodbye at the end of Mayas conversation, implying he’s going to try and talk to her again
>Europoors don’t start conversations with random people they barely know. And because we KNOW Maya has NO FRIENDS, it probably means that Epke approached her cuz he liked her (for some reason idk why, people like people for weird reasons)

IM NOT A PEDOPHILERINO, IM JUST THEORIZING

<posted again cuz I put Anke instead of Epke award

>>109537
thanks for the fixs BTW

I thank no, cause the "real" Epke noticed that Maya liked the same music as him. so start a conversation with her.
but it's weird that Maya fantasize about him, maybe she over thought it and kept on remembering him, so that could be why he is in Maya's daydreams.

 No.109541

I think he said see you later because it was the polite thing to say after watching someone spill that much spaghetti over themselves. And he started the conversation cause he had never met another Death Grips fan. Epke seems like a normalnigger and can probably do better (from his perspective) than a weird greasy haired girl on the bus who might already be in an open relationship.

depends what mental illness they have.
Maya has ADD, autism, and socially anxiously, but how is Epke supposed under Maya has all that when all he sees to a girl listening to Music on the bus!!

 No.109544

>>109539
I don’t think Maya would try talking to Epke again after the bus without some huge character development, but I think he is one of her imaginary friends because he is definitive proof to her that there are people around that have similar interests. So it lingers in her head, that if she just tried talking to people and reaching out more she could actually make a friend. That knowledge probably makes her miserable because now on top of feeling lonely she feels guilty knowing she is at least partly to blame for it, and she still feels incapable of doing the reaching out that would be needed, making her feel even more guilty.

I think that character development would have to come mainly from Maya herself with Coco pushing Maya towards a new goal. but of course Maya doesn't like Coco for reasons such as thinking of Coco as her replacement (same with mymy), Coco (and mymy) connecting with people, and (this for a joke) going outside. this would logically make tension since Maya hates herself so much that she would rather not be Maya (this was in Mayamails BTW).
I wish Massa Continued the show still.

Yeah I agree I just didn’t want to say it would be totally impossible for Maya to ever try talking to Epke again, but he would obviously not play a role in Maya’s struggle to deal with her anxiety. Any development in this regard would need to be about Maya’s personal inner growth and how her sisters affect or ideally, help her during. And yeah the Mayamails do a good job showing the extent of Maya’s guilt and self loathing. Unfortunately if Massa did continue it he would’ve just ruined it out of spite, so it’s up to us to keep the ‘lig alive.

I do think Coco would be the biggest pusher, Mymy second, then maybe others. and Massa would find a way to fuck shit up in the end.
Also Ongezellig media goes from great (true gems/zems) to horrable (aka "that's enough internet for today")
and it's our responendabty to keep Ongezellig alive
we have great people working on Ongezellig media (like Onion Dweller)

 No.109554

>>109551
I think it would be more interesting to write about how Maya is even able to get to the point where she could be in a relationship than about the relationship itself. Otherwise it would probably just end up as Epke rescuing Maya from her problems like a white knight which I think is usually an uninteresting story. There was a fanfic being discussed in the fic thread last week where this played out but with Roos instead of Epke, and it suffered from the same problem, on top of being essentially yuricoal.

Yeah it is hard trying to write Maya overcoming her problems in a convincing way, but I feel like that’s what makes a well written fic so compelling.

COMPLETELY OFF TOPIC:

but i think Massa handled Mayamail kinda poorly. having Maya say that Coco is "blackmailing her" i find to be kinda unrealistic. people of this mental state tend to do nothing but blame themselves for everything.

Well Maya definitely does resent Coco for being Ms. Perfect, and to some degree thinks Coco’s attempts at getting her to socialize are designed to humiliate her. Maya probably does blame mostly herself for her problems but she thinks Coco has never tried to actually help her and has at times made them worse by forcing her into things.

Coco’s PTSD is probably a big part of why she and Maya can’t understand each other. For Coco missing out on things is painful because she misses her time with her family and never wants to waste time again with her new family and friends.
She thinks all Maya needs is some nudging in the right direction to appreciate family and make friends. But these efforts are misread by Maya as Coco belittling her and unfortunately will just push them further apart until they make more of an effort to understand each other’s problems.

There’s the rub. The central issue of how to make two broken people understand each other when the ways they are broken make even understanding the way the other is broken extremely difficult. Lots of fics use Maya reaching some kind of breaking point and having an outburst, which is not necessarily a terrible explanation, but it usually is done poorly. I think Maya seeing Coco when she is vulnerable would crack her image in Maya’s mind and can be a good place to start looking. How or why this would happen and what it would look like, I have no clue.

 No.109596

>>109598
I meant more like a friend moving away, a bandmate maybe, and I don’t know if she has any family left to lose sadly unless Ravi, Soei, or Mymy is gonna be sacrificed for the sake of plot. I don’t think it even needs to be a substantial loss for it to affect Coco because of her relationship with loss, it could be trivial from Maya’s perspective which is why it might crack the princess image. Or maybe something Maya can relate to more, like what if Coco had a south african stuffed animal that was ruined somehow?

 No.109600

>>109599
from out of the band mates Yfke, Cleo, and Zoey. Yfke is the most likely to move away, properly back to Friesland. or maybe someone else but we don't know much about Coco's relations with the other classmates (I think)
and that South African Stuffed Animal could work depend how people would write.

also we do know a super tiny bit about one of the Schoppenboer sister Grandparents. but I don't see them dying since ravi and soei are in their 40s.

 No.109601

>>109600
I think it’s completely fair to write more for a character if you want to make them better friends with Coco in a fic, if you only stick to what is canon, then you couldn’t write anything new. The important thing is to keep new information grounded and have it be built off of what we DO know. We do know that Coco is friends to some extent with basically everyone in their class because Maya says not being Coco’s friend is an achievement.
I think it is Soei’s parents that run a store in the Mayamails because Maya says if she goes there during the party she will be getting unlimited spring rolls, but they don’t seem old enough to be dying of natural causes.

 No.109602

>>109601
we don't know their dynamic, so we have make up our own (examples Koos, Wiel, Adam,) which, what we know about, we can write about it, since the 'stereotypes'(I think stereotype is the right word here but tell me if I'm worng) would be bases for the characters themselves so we. and we have to make new characters sometimes (like Yana from Onion dweller) but we like you said "make them grounded" so them would fit the world and won't be self-insert characters(which are really boring and cliché). I mean we need more teachers than just Ms. Vera. (since most schools have more than one teacher.(I know obvious))

and no member of the Schoppenboer family would die at any point it's still too early.(which I hope I made clear)

I agree that implying change works very well as an ending, because all we need to see is that Maya is now capable and wants to do it, and I assume this is how Massa would’ve ended it. In a fic this helps keep the scope limited and therefore she can be written more consistently. But the idea for Maya ending by getting worse is straight from satan.

you might be right, but her story doesn't read conclusive to me. i can imagine her loneliness would either consume her like it already is or she'd gain a more realistic perspective, and have that be the start of her building some sort of life for herself, kind of like what watamote did. but she's too static for a traditionally bad or happy ending.

My thought is that if her loneliness is still consuming her, then her story really hasn’t been even partly resolved. She could become more like Zoey, where she remains quiet and introverted but no longer hates herself for it.

One challenge when writing someone like Maya getting better is the fact that, people in this mental state think that they are undeserving of love.
