I think it would be really funny for kobarimepoo / sword trio to be down bad for their respective romance dawn trio counterparts
#sword trio#one piece#romance dawn trio#koby#helmeppo#they all have the most obvious crushes on them#this is why they had to transfer to sword#they'd risk it all for a smooch#too much of a liability#kobylu#idk if helmeppo zoro has a tag#same with hibari nami#I think im inventing ships again#my bad chat#hibari one piece

Victor Frankenstein & Henry Clerval
from Frankenstein by Mary Shelley
#henry isn't depicted properly in most frankenstein adaptations because it would be too gay otherwise#same goes for literally every adaptation embellishing a romance between victor and elizabeth that really is not there in the novel#and if I said that victor's paranoia of henry discovering his dark secret (the creature) is a metaphor for his internalised homophobia..#I could argue that the creature is a manifestation of his homosexuality generally but it especially plays into his relationship with henry#in interesting ways#frankenstein#victor frankenstein#henry clerval#clervalstein#< if it has a ship name you know it's serious#(I couldn't find any actual illustrations of these two because it was all tumblr fanart)#mary shelley#classic literature#polls#queer#new post

What led to this (orufrey comic, cw an uncomfortable/creepy scene)
#witch hat tag#orufrey#er.... i'm too tired to have anything to say..i worked several days on this.#wait.. didn't i say just recently here that i probably wouldn't ever depict 'what if alaira is qifrey's sort-of ex'. What's going on#i don't even remember deciding to draw this..it's all a blur..i'm not sure why i WOULD decide to draw delicate scenes in my head#that i wouldn't really want to share with anyone/discuss so why did i draw it...#some part of me really really wants to draw things that are more and more true to myself...#maybe because of my alienation with most romance/shipping/dynamics the rest of the world depicts.#orufrey really is perfectly suited to me - what i read in the text and what is in my head. well anyway#i am TIRED of drawing poses and angles and..maybe now i will actually take a break from drawing bc of the tediousness of Angles#btw it really is a 'stretch of time' . . . assuming witches graduate age 18-20#well orufrey are canonically 30-ish. they've only had agott around for presumably about TWO years (?) bc she took the test age 10#and it feels like oru moving in/unknown atelier acquisition/building (?) .. i guess that could be a year or so before agott at most#(she was the first disciple) so... ????????? What about the other 7 or so years ?!?!?!!?!?! Unemployed Brimhat Hatred era#that time is very nebulous. after qifrey went to the tower i feel like it's been implied he and oru drifted apart a little.#certainly they didn't live together at first... no way. that doesn't feel like how it is based on things oru has said about becoming Eye#idk. I'm tired now. i don't usually think of alaira as necessarily qifrey's ex and this being how things went in that 'sliver of time'.#i usually prefer the idea that they have their first kiss with each other in their 30s cause That's Just The Orufrey Lifestyle#just felt like making a more relatable alternative view of my own Cai Orufrey Canon one time. btw im a big monoshipper and it hurt a bit#let's leave it there. this is surely the most i've worked on a 'single' art - though now i realise just how much longer the fic took :')

having seen at least the rough outlines of all the romances now I have to say that I think emmrich's is probably objectively the best in terms of coherence and completeness of story arc (with the understanding that ultimately the 'best' romance is whichever one makes YOUR heart sing anyway so objectivity is a silly thing to claim that way, it just felt like it's the arc with the most well-paced focused content and the least dangling threads)... but lucanis' is my favourite haha. just. the whole kneeling before your beloved full of reverence but without any of the distance that usually implies??? his complete undramatic certainty and calm in every scene with rook after this, having spent the whole game caught between fear and longing???? mr. lives in a pantry but it says nothing about my psyche don't worry about it it's purely for tactical reasons that I keep myself contained in a small dark room not entirely unlike a cell, love among the parsnips -- finally coming to rook in their room and it's so comfortable and comforting???? after all the times rook supports and comforts him through the game he's finally able to return the same to them when they need it while being so calm and steady and it's so fucking sweet and feels so effortless and with no price attached?????? he basically assigns himself the role of your bodyguard and he WILL stab a god over it??????????????? the turn to protector (which was in his heart all along longing to get out and find a place) of it all????? he sounds like he's found himself unexpectedly stumbling into such a soul-lightening state of revelatory existential relief, full on 'you only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves' mary oliver style, and he goes and he shares that with rook and protectively envelops them in it when they're hurting??????????????????????????? hello for the maker's sake hello can anyone hear me?????
#listen I was forged in the fires of garrusmancing. I went through two whole games just to get a gentle headbutt and some tender words#before me3 comes along and rewards you for your tenacity more fully#me? the reyes romancer???? I have the strength and headcanon game to bear the relative lack of content before the end#when the endgame is this good I am willing to hold out for it haha the way he looks at rook towards the end......#I also really liked taash' (it's really sweet) but I don't think I have any rooks ready to go right now who would go for that vibe#emmrich for sure is going to be my either crow or shadow dragon romance it really is very good! and extremely goth not unrelatedly#undeniably that old man has the most game out of anyone in this story. the move with the flower??? I'm sorry????#I actually like that lucanis' romance blooms out of the safety of an established friendship more than anything (again. avowed garrusmancer)#but emmrich... he's got some next level romantic stuff going on and is being both so wholesome and such a freak about it lmao#dragon age#dragon age: the veilguard#dragon age: the veilguard spoilers#dragon age spoilers#lucanis dellamorte#rook x lucanis#rookanis#all jokes aside I totally respect and understand that people are a bit disappointed and frustrated -- they're not wrong to feel that!#there really are some gaps in content there for the midgame#however I was personally custom built by experience to get the most out of this scenario as possible and by god I will#just as I feel that ryder and reyes go off and have some soul-shrivingly good sex after the first kiss#(it makes that arc make a lot more sense to me haha)#I think rook and lucanis Get Up To It after the second coffee date. weird of them to not show us that but okay I'll fill it in myself then

Recently saw a post that said "People only like to ship Sunflower before the incident or after the good ending when they've had extensive therapy and that means it's toxic!!" Listen personally I don't ship Sunflower but like? Shut up?
Obviously they BOTH need a lot of therapy and healing before they can do something like start a relationship or even heal from the incident in general. You think Sunny's just gonna drop the bombshell that he killed Mari and helped hang her and immediately go back to dating Kel or Aubrey? In fact, I think all 5 of them need therapy because Kel, Aubrey and Hero now have to heal and accept the truth if they ever want to forgive Sunny and Basil.
So yeah if you say that people who acknowledge when others need therapy before getting into a relationship are toxic then you're stupid af.
And as for the pre incident shipping-- yeah, based on how Sunny views him in headspace its fair to say there might have been a crush when they were younger, but of course everyone dismisses that because Aubrey is a girl and so main character must be shipped with said girl.
If you're saying Suntan or Sunburn is perfectly healthy right after The Truth but that Sunflower is toxic and unrealistic, I think you just hate Basil. Because in that case there's no way any of Sunny or Basil's ships are good relationships considering Kel and Aubrey have been lied to for 4 years about the death of a girl they loved and cared about.
#this is why kelbrey stays on top#lol just kidding ship whoever in that 4 you want#it kills me to see sunny shipped with everyone but basil being dismissed for any romance potential because everyone hates basil#if youre gonna ship sunny with people then you have to let others ship basil with people#sunny is just as mentally ill as basil#and they both need help before they can do something like date#this fandom has a weird obsession with hating on everyone elses ships#but i think Suntan and Sunburn shippers do it the most because theyre so hellbent on making sure everyone knows their ship is the healthiest#even though its not#there i said it break into my house now#not saying all of them are dicks#just the ones who bash on other ships because theyre 'toxic'#and im talking about ships in the main 4 not some shit with hero and one of them#omori#omori kel#omori basil#omori aubrey#omori sunny#omori ship#omori sunkel#omori sunburn#omori sunflower#omori analysis#omocat

Mcr, that one band where people get sad about voting on which member we like the most and which album we like the most, bc all the members are equally important and all albums are equally important so we try to figure out other ways to decide what we like the most, bc we suck at choosing between the four albums and the four members
#always have a hard time choosing between the members and between the albums#but i tend to say gerard bc im a fan of his solo music and his comics and his weird ass vibes#but then i feel bad bc if i enjoy the rest equally as well within the context of mcr#and then im like “damn :((( i wish i could've picked all of them though :((( ”#whilst with the albums#im like “okay i love bullets some of my coping songs™️ are on there”#“but revenge hits the hardest emotionally”#“and tbp is the best sonically and feels the most cohesive somehow”#“but danger days has my favourite songs”#“tho revenge feels more representative of mcr”#“but so does tbp but in a different way”#“hm. imma pick tbp since it's the one i pick when i get violently back into the mcr mood™️”#“if i enjoy.” i just meant “i enjoy” fuckass “if”#the way all members of mcr means something to me cant be understated. all of them have shaped me as a person. all of them have inspired 1/2#me in one way or another#mcr#my chemical romance#gerard way#mikey way#frank iero#ray toro#mcr gerard way#mcr ray toro#mcr frank iero#mcr mikey way#mcr my beloved

"How he got such terrible taste in men" idk maybe it's inherited Dip *stares pointedly at Ford*
I don't think the mechanics of it work much into the AU but I do think the idea of Bill and Ford being bitter exes whilst Bill is also currently married to Dipper hilarious. The triangle has a type.
Yep, in Familiar AU, Bill and Ford aren't exes - but it would be kind of funny if Bill had been just starting to form a crush on the guy before he got banished! Now he's all sour grapes about it; clearly he never liked that gross scientist jerk in the first place!
He really does have a type 😔
#answers#Not canon but funny to think about#Ford was completely oblivious of course#In this AU he lacks interest in romance and it slipped by him unnoticed#Add in how Bill flirts (bickering) and it was probably the most offputting part of Bill in their brief acquaintance#Bill considers it a brief fit of idiocy brought around by all the ego flattering at the time#Having a guy praise him that much went to his head alright? That kinda thing has *implications*; of course he had a thought or two#The couple lines Bill did try landed with as much grace as a dead fish on mud#Ford wouldn't believe you if you told him straight to his face and Bill would deny it a thousand ways

I need to watch Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure to reach my final conclusion on if she's even attracted to men
#girl help i keep thinking about sharpay and ryan being each others only friend growing up#theyre not very good at interpersonal relationships#romance is foreign to them. they dont care about playing romantic interests because they only view romance through the lens of theatre#fake. not real. an act to entertain an audience. so they dont understand why it would be weird#neither of them have ever kissed anyone#sharpay likes things that make her look better#because her whole life is a performance#so she wants troy because hes a shiny accessory to her#thinking about hsm 2 where once again when she tries to perform a romantic song (with troy this time and not her brother)#she still barely fucking looks at him#all of her attention is on the (nonexistent) audience#and ryan. ryan hm#ryan usually performs alongside sharpay#its usually an in universe performance. theyre on a stage. theres an audience#and all of his attention is on pleasing that audience#an exception to this is during the gay baseball song#where theres a different kind of audience BUT#ryan barely looks at them#most of his attention is directed solely to chad#talking flirting teasing being cocky and annoying but clearly addressing him directly through most of the song#first time this has happened with ryan. take that as you will#ANYWAY i can see sharpay as completely uninterested in romance but she hasnt realized that about herself#and she THINKS she wants it. because she sees it as glamorous#or maybe shes a lesbian i dont know#she might be a lesbian#the deciding factor is sharpays fabulous adventure#if she has chemistry with the guy in that movie then shes just repressed and clueless#if she doesnt shes aro#or possibly lesbian

quick little thing of the main characters of my flatland/gravity falls fic in the style of my old flatland short film, since i was thinking about it
#flatland#gravity falls#flatland: a romance of many dimensions#bill cipher#andrew kryptos#realizing this is the first time most of you have seen my flatland ocs!#Clementine Playfair (the abnormal line) is bill’s coworker and the equilateral (Chuck Voynich) is bill’s boss#Clem’s dad Teddy is the iscosceles and her boyfriend Gus Sebald is the Polygon#(yes the practically Irreggular daughter of a disabled isosceles is being courted by a Polygon it’s all very scandalous)#gus is very sweet tho. only nice polygon oc I have he’s very much the black sheep of his family#anyway andy has no friends his age other than bill and spends most of his time loitering where bill works#so he’s also friends with everyone here#probably should have drawn bill and Andy’s parents but their families both suck so I didn’t want to#also thought about drawing my main regular line oc but… I haven’t introduced her yet so#style is a little different mostly because nobody had legs in my old film but ah well. they look better with legs and clothes#and clothes are actually weirdly important to my fic if you've read it

aro culture is getting so fucking tired of people using the fact that there's a queer romance in something as a reason you should watch it. like haven't allos had enough of romance? queer or otherwise? I'm not saying queer representation is bad, of course, I'm just fed up with asking what a book is about and in response all I get is "oh it has queer people in it" cool! what is it about? having queer representation is not the be all end all of media can we please have ONE thing without romance in it. please.
.
#electroniccollectiondonut#aro culture is#aro#aromantic#actually aro#actually aromantic#ask#mod phoenix#yeah... it's like. this is a bad metaphor but it's all i got right now:#i'm vegetarian. it's not uncommon that if an event is hosted 'with food' that every single main dish contains a fair amount of meat#and most of the side dishes too#maybe the salad has chicken. the soup is a meat broth soup. the main course is steak. i literally cannot tell you how often this happens.#and if you're lucky there's like... bread rolls and butter. sometimes there's the Cheap Salad that's just tossed lettuce#and i promise you from experience: if i ask beforehand i am always told there will be something for me to eat#but like. believe it or not 1) that's not filling 2) it's usually the two poorest quality items on the line 3) i prefer salads as SIDES#i see similar stuff on the occasion i'm told there's any sort of 'rep' for aro folks#it's like... okay but the vast majority of the media is still very romance focused and the elements that aren't are usually... hm#not comparably interesting in how they're executed?#or it's like. kids media. which can be good - but i'd like to be allowed to have content that can be both for an adult audience#and NOT romance

Not to be dramatic, but I'm kind of obsessed with 'And the haze will take us'. Like I'm already so invested in this story and it's been here for only two updates. The atmosphere of it, the dark, heavy plot mixed with loser mc, who's trying to navigate through the oppressive reality without her beloved sister... it's hard to pinpoint the exact moment I got invested in this story, but at this point I just can't help but waiting for the next episodes.
I think huge part of my obsession comes from the dynamics between mc and lis. On one hand these relationships are all unique, on the other none of them is easy. Everyone has their own bunch of problems and conflicts and nobody treats mc like a priority, which is completely valid. She's a girl-failure, after all, who's been keeping to herself her entire life. And she's aware of it, which makes it even more interesting. Lis are not here only for the sake of being lis, they all are characters first and I appreciate that deeply.
Besides plot and characters I also looove the soundtrack and outfits. There is nothing better than dressing my mc up in airy dresses 😍
She's so beautiful 😭
#seriously all new stories are delivering#but so far this one has been keeping me the most invested#I don't know how I'm going to choose my li#but I know this is going to be a whole ride#romance club#rc and the haze will take us#rc athwtu

I've started playing Potion Permit, and so far it's one of my favorite games I've messed around with, but the most big brained move the devs made was giving you a dog on day 1, and then making that dog able to track NPCs and lead you directly to them no matter where they are in the town.
#im still early game but i like the play and the writing is passable#like#Theres a flatness#the characters Are distinct but theyre mostly just their jobs#with only a few who stand out and have like. something to really grab onto#Like rue? rues entire deal is little girl you can date. Nothing else behind those eyes. She has nothing better to talk to you about#than the fact her favorite color is red#Sorcelia? Sorcelia is a goth nun who loves singing and teaches one of the village children#Reynerd? sure is a guy#got nothing else to say about him. hes just a Guy™. Victor? Has ghost friends and loves bugs and cares deeply about the cemetery#he tends to. At the moment it feels like they're trying to imply there aren't actually ghosts. and hes just talking to himself/#insisting his imaginary friends are real people#and so far? The games been cool about it. Victor's a member of his community and his eccentricities are accepted and not ridiculed#all four characters ive mentioned are romance candidates. but its just as hit or miss with the regular towns folk#Opalheart is an older woman and a world renowned blacksmith who only takes jobs if they will do Good. regardless of whether or not they#pay well. She declines to make a dagger for a rich man but makes a helmet for a childs father bc the girl asked#and olive is here#anyways you can be best friends with a cat (shes just a regular cat) and i appreciate that#idk im putting it above sun haven in my ranking of life sim games#purely because there are older romance candidates.#no fat romance candidates. but sun haven doesn't have thise either.#and sdv has neither fat or old candidates Nor can you fuck a cat boy. it goes at the bottom.#gameplay wise sunhaven is at the bottom then sdv then potion permit at the top. sunhaven has the Most™ but having#a lot of crap doesn't mean its fun and it ends up making half the game feel really incomplete#idk. Sdv is a game you should've started playing a year ago. sun haven is a game that perpetually needs another year worth of updates#before id say its worth it bc the devs keep pushing content ™ updates instead of quality of life or polish so what is there is uh#Bad. plentiful. and a large portion is good#but a Lot is just bad.#its insincere and cant take itself seriously it gives you (the right dialogue option) an (the shit joke option) which is worse than just#i ram out of space. tldr. potion permit is good Now. sdv Was good. sun haven Might be great Eventually

Lord of Danger may be my new favorite Anne Stuart.... Just need to see if it sticks the landing.... but girl the dark wizard is railing the heroine on the parapets of the battlements in the middle of a lightning storm..................... licking her tears off her face during.......................... being a cunning linguist..................
and like..................................................................
girl..........................................................................................................
#romance novel blogging#the pearls are clutched#this is def a dark romance btdubs with some SIGNIFICANT dubcon (not in this scene) (at all lol)#but like......... if you're down 2 clown it's kinda blowing me away.... and the secondary romance is also great#tbh i'll probs do meta about this later but tho i like to love a dark lord (4.25/5 for me) idk why that's the GO-TO anne stuart rec#this is my fifth book by her and i'd say dark lord is the weakest as of now#but it's also the most conventional romance i've read by her so i would assume that has something to do w the popularity#in regards to her total backlist
