#LEAVE MY GIRLS ALONE

[somewhere-in-the-rain]

Is it just me or in some fandoms I'm not saying all but the MMC defenders can't defend him without degrading the FMC I mean when people defend FMC they don't hate the MMC they just want him to do better

This is so true, and I see it way too much in fandoms like Fourth Wing/the Empyrean where the couple don’t immediately get their happily ever after.

Xaden and Violet have a dynamic that I personally don’t see a lot in fantasy series, which is when they have genuine relationship problems that need to be worked through, rather than the usual romantasy pipeline of confessions of love -> fucking -> marriage (order interchangeable). The “miscommunication” (this is one of those phrases that BookTok throws around very lightly) caused so many people to take sides in the drama, most often in favour of Xaden because he’s the hot shadow-wielding love interest. And it pisses me off every time I see someone call Violet “annoying” for her perfectly reasonable response to the situation she was in. She was absolutely not at fault, but I’m not saying Xaden was entirely either.

But so many people in fandoms can’t look past the idea of blaming someone to recognise that all characters are complex and flawed and these are issues that they had to work through. What did people want Violet to do? Sweep it under a rug and pretend the man she was in love with didn’t conceal a secret that almost got her killed?

That’s just one example, another being in the ACOTAR fandom (toxic pit of hell that it is) when people talk about Nessian, defending Cassian by hating on Nesta.

*clears throat importantly* YOU CAN DEFEND A MALE CHARACTER WITHOUT DISCREDITING A FEMALE ONE.

These are two examples of characters who are crazy for each other and in loving relationships. Why do fandoms so often try to set them against each other? Why is it always the MMC who “deserves better”? Why is it the female character who is always at fault?

Seeing female idol x male reader smuts

The whole "Female Cyrax and Sektor" controversy is so funny to me, specially since the main "coping mechanism" being used is: "it's ok, they might be just some versions from some random reality in the Multiverse!"

Oh! A random reality, huh? You mean something like...

The New Era?

Cause they ARE some random reality within the MK Multiverse. They have even openly stated that. They just happen to be the reality we are currently following. But they are still one in an infinite.

So... if it's ok to have female Cyrax and Sektor if it's in "some random reality in the Multiverse," then it's ok to have female Cyrax and Sektor in MK1.

Right?

Thalias casting has just further proved that all hate or “dislike” towards Leah is racist. Literally the only two black women are getting the most hate.

I’m already praying that Tamara doesn’t get death threats like Leah did.

´´Gwyn and emerie are just side characters! They can´t be featured in a book or have their romantic story told!´´

What was a Nesta and Cassian before acosf?

What is Elain, Azriel and Mor who sarah j mass has talked about giving books to?

What was Ruhn and Lidia?

What was chaol and yrene?

ALL FRIGING SIDE CHARACTERS

Goodnight.

The notion that Feyre and/or Rhys are to blame for Nesta and Elain being forced into the cauldron is ridiculous. I see so many posts to that effect and I don’t know how people reached that conclusion.

Feyre and Rhys reached out to the sisters for help with the queens because they had no other choice if they wanted to win the war.

If they hadn’t, if Hybern had won the war, the humans south of the border were going to be the very first casualties. Tortured, killed, or enslaved. That is what would have happened to Nesta and Elain. They were already implicated whether or not Feyre roped them in. They were already at risk because of Hybern. They would’ve been dragged into the Fae world, whether or not Feyre reached out. At least this way, they ensured that humans didn’t end up enslaved to the Fae.

But it’s just another instance of people blaming the victims and taking the blame off of the actual villains.

I will defend these four with my life🧎🏾‍♀️

[throne-of-crows]

Just saw multiple tiktoks of people shipping stobin and stancy. I actually feel like I'm going crazy. Are people watching a different show? If I see one more person say that they wish Robin was straight because Steve and Robin would be a perfect couple I will scream.

I'M STRESSED ABOUT FROZEN 3

wtf would you write a marriage law panmsione fic? the whole point is to breed half-blood children... sounds pointless.

Hi anon. I really tried not to take this question personally, but I guess I'm too much of a pro-wlw plots to let this pass.

Why would I write this plot? Because I want to. Because I enjoy the idea of this two characters going through a terrible law that forces them to get married and have babies together as an excuse to make them fall in love.

I guess your point is How can they impregnate each other? Well, you tell me, we are in a fandom in which Mpreg with cis-male characters exists, we have fests about it and all. So I guess I'm going to write Fpreg.

HOW are they going to get pregnant? Well, I believe I can also choose a bunch of ways. Let's start simple: hello, MAGIC? I guess they could also try some very intense multiorgasmic sex? They could have cauldron babies, for all I care.

Honestly, I just feel very offended that, when it comes to femslash, people are a bit offensive and even aggressive to plots that are a bit different. I'll write all the women who loves women plots I bloody well want. BECAUSE WLW DESERVE TO GET OUR STORIES WRITTEN.

Also: don't like, don't read.
