kind of? writing always seemed more like a muscle to me. you can get stronger for sure, but you may never be good. and that assumes that good is the goal and not just enjoyment.
it's ok to do some things just because you like them. no other justification needed.
YOU ARE ALLOWED TO DO CREATIVE STUFF EVEN IF YOU DON’T THINK YOU’RE GOOD AT THEM BTW !! do stuff just because you want to, because it feels good and creativity is an outlet we all need!!
he lets his brother bully him repeatedly, his father berate and publicly embarrass him, and only raises his voice when his brother starts to insult Svetlana. he is polite to waitstaff and seems...like a naturally pretty quiet person who puts on a show for other people
what's funny is that i keep seeing people call ilya "cold" but the show doesn't really give us any evidence of it, except maybe at the very very beginning when ilya is super young and not really great at english.
the only time (besides during/before games) that i recall ilya raising his voice is when shane makes him feel vulnerable in some way - thinking about shane with rose, talking to his brother, of talking about his family to shane (a double serving of pain for him)
