omg. all of you shut up and stop arguing about vincent’s gender. you do realize part of the point was that it’s ambiguous and does not ultimately matter. part of that is robert harris’s incomplete understanding of intersexuality, part of it comes from the fact that in the book we’re hearing things from lomeli’s own perspective, and part of it is to drive home the story’s main theme of uncertainty and doubt in relation to faith. vincent’s gender identity and his physical traits also differ from the book to the movie, so it’s no wonder that people across the spectrum of gender identities have their own personal interpretations of his identity. the only thing that doesn’t change is the fact that he intersex and was scheduled to have a hysterectomy, which he did not have. not to mention the intentional ambiguity of the movie (wider audiences’ sensitivities, censorship and age rating rules, etc.). there is enough textual evidence to support multiple interpretations of how he views himself beyond that. his nationality also being changed from book to movie likely affects this, too: he’s a character that so many people can see themselves in. he’s a christlike figure, which is undoubtably intentional. there are also several details in the book which lead me to believe robert harris’ choice to make benítez intersex was inspired by descriptions of angels in the bible and apocrypha: beautiful, genderless, holy protectors and warriors of god.

i worry that some of you are too concerned about what other people think about your headcanons than forming your own opinions and engaging in the text with a personal way. some of you also care far too much about other people’s headcanons! it’s weird and unrealistic to say that everybody needs to have the same opinion on something that is, in canon, ambiguous. it’s totally fine to dislike and disagree with other interpretations. but what about you? what are YOU getting out of the text, the story, the characters? what speaks to you the most?

Agree with this anon "guys forget about discourse what we need is more fics of ppl hatefucking tedesco. thats it thats the ask"

Counter movement to the Bellesco week of the guys who have half of the Bellesco fandom now blocked over petty shit of who tops in Bellesco and whatnotelse. Fancops trying to run ship weeks is the wildest thing ever.

That said. Bellini should smooch Vincent anyways.

Whenever there is discourse someone always comes in fiending about tedesco it’s kinda beautiful actually

[conclaveconfessions]

uhm are we forgetting what cardinal graggle did to Vincent in the books... supporting him is high key problematic. even worse are the gragitez shippers...

I am uncertain on whether or not I should support or denounce the graggle movement

[conclaveconfessions]

at this point there's at least five people ragebaiting in this confessional and while im not one of them i do kinda respect the chaotic evil grind

one of the chiller fandoms ive been in tbh at least some of yallre tryna spice it up bless ur hearts

Vengo a traer una confesión en español: me hace muy feliz lo multicultural que es el fandom. Hacia rato que no hacía amistades tan cercanas y me llena de felicidad ver publicaciones (en tuiter) en diferentes idiomas ❤️ el poder de el old man yaoi católico supera las barreras lingüísticas❤️

I find it kinda odd that no one ever talks about Cardinal Graggle? He’s a pretty important character in the book, maybe less so in the movie, but he still gets a pretty significant amount of screentime. His conversation with Thomas after the homily was my personal favorite scene in the film, and TBH I thought he had a lot of chemistry with Aldo Bellini yet I never see any ship art of them! Idk. I just wish he was talked about more.

What in gods green earth are you talking about

[conclaveconfessions]

Genuinely the most illiterate fandom imaginable. People on Twitter are now just making things up and then gaslighting the even dumber fans into thinking it’s true.

“Bellini was in the simony documents” We… we have the names of all of the cardinals in the simony documents??? It’s in the book??? And even if it wasn’t why would Thomas go tell him?? Is everyone here fucking stupid??

And yet people without fail “woah I had no idea I didn’t read the book.”

And then when people got mad idiots were believing it “Wait that’s fake? I assumed it was true.”

The real reason this fandom has problems: nobody here has actually engaged with the primary texts. Watching movies while on their phone or only engaging with fan art and fanfic. Bros online just typing shit.

I must confess. I love Ralph Fiennes characters, I heart them, I want them carnally. But I'm scared shitless of Ralph himself... I don't know why. He looks like a hater.
