#I'm sorry they disrespected you

[number1spongebobfan]

If anyone asks, no, I don't consider BWBA, AEG, The Patrick Star Show or Kamp Koral canon in my crossover universe.

I think these spinoffs are very disrespectful to the source material. And to Stephen Hillenburg and Reverend W. Awdry.

zolu is maybe one of the easiest ships i've ever liked. they're dating, except when they're not, they're best friends even when they're kissing and they're still captain and first mate when they aren't. they hold hands, they hug. they have sex. they don't.

Luffy can hold Zoro's katanas and Zoro can hold Luffy's strawhat and no one bats an eye. one says "You're so cool!" and the other says "You're strong" and it's just another way to say "I see you, this is why I follow you/this is why I trust you". it's not seeing each other for a long time and still knowing how the other's steps sound like against wood and sand. the captain runs and the first mate follows. it's always "Zoro and the others" and "Where's Luffy?"

if they're just friends, if they're something more, if they don't have a label for it, at its core, it's just about how they get each other. they understand how the other's mind works. however you view them, it doesn't erase they fact that they love each other in a way they don't love other people.

My parent rates LU Link's based on first impressions

[warning foul language, mention of alcohol, and my parents very negative impression of Wars !!! note this is my parents impression based off of the LU concept sketches + descriptions. a lot of em aren't accurate]

TIME

Very God of War, Kratos. PTSD Link.

when all the others are hanging out he's in the cups. He fought the moon? Sounds about right. Everyone else is talking and goofing off and he's got the thousand yard stare.

No one talks about how he cant get a full nights sleep. Please let him nap. Maybe let the owl take a nap too.

*stares at him for a very long time, before taking a sip of mimosa*

TWILIGHT

blond hiccup [httyd] very viking. Humble? Hiccup. Animal whisperer? Does he have a dragon? he turns in to a wolf? good for hiccup. getting over a complicated relationship? ...... h-

OH HE HAS GOATS? I love goats! Love this guy.

WARRIORS

Ah, douchy paladin! Yeah he's got the hip flex, he knows he's the shit. Very prideful? Of course you are. Leader type? Women problems? Not surprised. [said they most wanted to punch this one]

"This one writes himself. On Reddit forums"

FOUR [their 3rd fav]

"eeny meeny hippy genie" They've got the weird flowy scarf hat, they're super tiny! Dwarf.. chaos gremlin-- No that's a changeling! I don't think that's actually a Link, I think they faked their way in. Not that I blame them, its a pretty cool crew to be a part of. Spy for the fae realm.

WILD

5th grade school photo link. He's really excited for his first day of school and has a planner for all of his classes.

Good at navigation? Kudos for being a good boy scout.

Her 2nd favorite.

WILD

"Legolas Link" he likes to run on snow, flip his hair back + forth and shit talk dwarves [changeling doesn't like that]

"takes any questioning of his princess too personally? Why are they questioning his princess in the first place? *squints* Why is he so upset? Feel like maybe we need some codependency therapy-

IDENTITY CRISIS DUE TO MEMORY LOSS???? oh no, there we go, the therapy- INSECURE? THE ONLY ONE THAT FAILED? Dude, I think douchy paladin needs to take him to therapy-, maybe it'll convince him to get some too.

Proceeds to go into a rant about his sheikah tech being called weird magic: "Why are they calling his magic weird? That's rude ! They need to have more open minds, no wonder he's insecure! He just needs to feel confident and supported in his new environment and they're not being very supportive right now!"

*orders another mimosa*

LEGEND [their favorite]

"We've got stoner wizard link..." "Which one?" "He's wearing red, and like a fancy staff with a ball at the end for walloping on people who say he's not a real wizard" He just smacks em and says duh yes I am, but usually he doesn't bother with it bc he's too chill.

He's the Millenial of the linked universe. "Chooses not to be a leader type? 'Nope, Im good, just here for a paycheck not a promotion. Some PTO would be nice. Another adventure? He'd rather start a commune"

"Seems unaffected by his adventures?" Uhh he is though. He's just delusional about it now.

HYRULE

Classic link [true] silent generation, nobody acknowledges him. "just happy to be included," mistaken as a hobbit.

"He's actually a traveler, never stays in one place" "Ah so post adventure Bilbo baggins, who wants to see mountains again."

*starts singing "the road goes ever on and on"*

SKY

Foppy link. Fabulous haircut, cape swooped over one shoulder with the gorgeous coloring, contrasting belt-- he knows color schemes way too well, he could be in project runway.

"Not the leader type? Sure he's too busy worrying about fabric swatches. Views the master sword as a blessing? Yeah, I bet he does."

Very confidently decided his Zelda is a beard.

[zazikels]

this game will literally tell you anything except acknowledge the thing that started morrigan's reputation. she's had more lovers than there are trees in the forest but she's NOT A HERO OF THE FIFTH BLIGHT OR ANYTHING.

[monstersinthecosmos]

I really would encourage everyone to do a mindfulness check before you post about your problematic blorbo and do a proofread for disclaimers and excuses.

ie: "Yeah they're terrible but I like them!" or "It's canon!" or "[misc discourse buzzword gotchas about fiction not being reality, blah blah]"

Just don't! You don't need to! It isn't necessary!

What if we were surrounded by people who didn't constantly assume the worst of us and didn't assume we endorsed the wrongdoings of a fictional character? What if we didn't feel the need to self-censor to appease conservatives?

Blunting every post you share, everything you lovingly create, every silly thing you have to say with a moral disclaimer is an affirmation that there is a moral deficit and adds to the stigma about liking dark fiction. What if we were unapologetic because there's nothing to apologize for?

And you know what? The people you're trying to please do not fucking care lmao. It's not going to change their minds. They're going to think you're a scumbag anyway so why are we wasting time trying to gain their favor?

So don't pollute your posts with it, don't take attention away from your art and your fics, don't try to fill a quota for how often every month you apologize for your interests, because all it does is start a negative conversation around something that's really boring and takes attention away from the thing you're actually trying to say!!! You're allowed to be proud of your fanfic and artwork and meta and silly memes and fun lil ideas and you don't need to invite discourse every fucking time!!!!!

"pronouncing 'Þerindë' as 'Serindë' is not that big of a deal" just say you've always been called right your whole life.

[fisheito]

[crypticpuffin]

editing bride of re-animator cause my brain won't leave me along about these goddamn freaks but I keep getting distracted by how pretty francesca is...?? I mean not to be a lesbian but oh my god wow. what the fuck

[natcat5]

I'm sure people have a host of embarrassing 'gateways' that led them to the batfam. but i don't think anyone can beat 'have been reading nothing but danny phantom fanfic for the past year, exhausted most of the archive and finally started reading the crossover fics, was taken in by the 'halfa jason todd' premise and read a lot of those, then stumbled on a halfa jason todd fic with a characterization of tim drake that was so emotional and haunting and powerful that I just had to learn everything about him. mind you he was in a coma for 8/10 of that fic'

Like I think I take the prize for embarrassing gateways. I will NOT be telling this story at parties

[silusvesuius]

n*loth not being able to bag anyone over the (human term) age of 25-30 at most is the only logical and real conclusion to me because it can be just explained away as him wanting to prove and control everything and anyone (Cus he's a man!) but being stuck in that demographic because his unbearable and vile personality is a force that nobody can look past once they've outgrown the possible fear and idolization period of anyone but also n*loth in particular.

[caelysiiium]

[multigenderswag]

can you give me or link me to a definition on the multigender label? and also maybe put it in your faq? is it basically bigender but more encompassing? very sorry if any of this comes off as disrespectful

Multigender is an umbrella term for identifying as multiple genders (often simultaneously, but sometimes switching between them). Bigender is a more specific identity under the multigender umbrella, for people who have two genders.* Other multigender identities include polygender (many genders), pangender (all genders), and genderfluid (changing genders). Some people prefer to not use any of those specific identities, and just use the broad label of multigender. There's a lot of variety in multigender identities, but overall, it refers to people who have more than one gender identity.

*bigender can also mean "two or more genders" rather than "exactly two genders," similar to how bisexuality is used

[myfairkatiecat]

Guys I don't understand what I did.

[averagemorrowindenjoyer]

Mfs will treat ONE post from the official Teletubbies Twitter account about the Teletubbies being siblings as the word of God, and base their entire argument on it. And then they'll proceed to harass you when you prove them wrong. Sorry babes but a single post isn't gonna stop me. Imma continue to make slendytubbies fanart of Laa and Dipsy kissin.

[tj-crochets]

On the one hand I am glad people keep including evidence that their claims are false when they email my boss to complain about me, but on the other hand I do not understand why they expect it to go in their favor when they include screenshots that clearly show I did not do what they say I did. Like, I'm glad they include the evidence in my favor, but it's weird that it happened twice, right?
