(Anonymous) 2013-07-01 02:07 am (UTC)(link)No, it doesn't make any sense in the narrative scheme, and yes, it would often be beneficial to the characters to make the thing public. But I don't care. I really prefer the kind of stories where the supernatural isn't public to the kind you get where the supernatural is public. I find the latter kind of stories really, really boring. For one thing, a lot of the time they seem to rely on the shock value of the thing and on the idea that taking familiar well-worn elements of the world around us and adding in something to do with draculas or wolfmen or frankensteins is in and of itself interesting, which it's really not to me. For another, I like the idea of being covert and on the run and the drama that adds. That's cool and fun. I like the episodes of Supernatural where they're sparring with the cops.
And at the end of the day, I'd rather have a story that I like and that's interesting, even if it has a glaring gap in the logic of the plot, as long as the character logic and the plot logic and the aesthetic unity is all there, rather than a story that Looks At What It'd Really Be Like that's just boring.
